Cinema / / December 19, 2019
Screens out the most anticipated and at the same time the most secret project kinovselennoy Marvel, and indeed the film industry in recent years. This film - a direct continuation of last year's "War of infinity."
Then almost all well-known superheroes kinovselennoy entered into confrontation with ominous Thanos. Mad titanium was obsessed with the idea to solve the problem of overpopulation of the universe. He wanted to destroy half of the living creatures, and for this he needed to collect all the stones infinity - they have shown in previous films by Marvel.
At the end of the "War infinity" heroes almost won. But Thanos could click your fingers, and exactly half of the universe of the population, including many heroes have turned to dust.
What is expected from the new film
When the release of "War of infinity", directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, as well as the head of Marvel Studios Kevin Faig said that this film is just the beginning of the battle with Thanos. And indeed, he is cut off almost in mid-sentence, from the Avengers was only the old team, the land in ruins, and Thanos, was seriously injured, go on holiday.
Even before the appearance of the first trailer has appeared many theories about the continuation of the story. Many of them were built on stories from comicsWhich disappeared as it turned out, they did not die, but fall into another dimension that exists in the soul stone. So, the heroes had to take away from Thanos' glove and bring them back to life.
After the release of the film "Ant-Man and Wasp", which showed that in quantum measurement time passes differently there were suggestions about moving the heroes of the past. This is also confirmed some of the shots from the shooting in the entourage of the movie "The Avengers" in 2012.
«captain Marvel"Acquainted the audience with the most powerful superhero, and it was immediately dubbed the main weapon in the fight against Thanos. This is confirmed and trailers, where colleagues Carol says: "Before, you did not have me."
Also from the trailers could learn that Scott Lang still out of the quantum measurement and came to the Avengers, Clint Barton turned into a cruel Ronin, and the team will be new white costumes.
For the rest, to understand something specific from a variety of promo video was simply impossible. And so the fans continued to build theory. sometimes even stark raving mad. For example, it will destroy Thanos Ant-Man, climbing into his anus.
What is shown in the movie "The Avengers: Finale"
Carefully, further critical text contains spoilers.
By tradition, some theories have been very far from reality. Others have almost hit the target. But here, the brothers Rousseau somewhat cheated, deceived the expectations of the audience: some assumptions was simply not important to the plot.
Thus, the emotional message of Tony Stark with the spacecraft, which is shown in the commercials have ended very simply - with its Nebula saved Captain Marvel.
And it soon became clear that almost all the promotional materials are made up of the first scenes, and what to expect next - is unclear. Moreover, even those theories that are close to reality, "work out" in the first half of the film.
Yes, Captain Marvel helps to kill Thanos. But this does not negate the fact that he did, and the stones have already been destroyed. Yes, the Avengers are sent back in time to gather stones indefinitely and prevent a catastrophe. But even if you know all this in advance - the film and so full of surprises that delight and surprise.
"The Avengers: Finale" in the first film for the many millions of fans kinovselennoy.
So he built as soon as the end of a long favorite series or TV shows. The authors simply give all the main characters have more time to open up, and then remind the audience of past events.
It is no coincidence in the final of the "War infinity" survived is the old team the Avengers. In the previous film, a lot of time devoted to beginners: Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Panther, and the soldiers of Wakanda, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange. From the "old" there appeared only Iron Man and Thor.
And in the "Finale" Saving the world once again falls on the shoulders of Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow and other heroes, who first gathered in a large-scale crossover in 2012. Since they began kinovselennaya, they also end its ten-year history.
Therefore, the first hour of the film is completely devoted to the changes in the characters. The authors finally show how each person feels about the defeat. After all, before they always won.
Before the release of the movie "The First Avenger: confrontation" in a happy endah no one doubted. And here you can watch the weakness of the Torah, Tony Stark attempts to take refuge in the bosom of the family, or for cruelty Hawkeye. At the beginning of the history of all of them - just people. They have weaknesses, and even a reference press Torah can turn into a beer belly.
As the final film turned into an attraction for fans
Many viewers and critics have already dubbed the new film three-hour fan service. And this is really hard to argue. After a long entry substantial part of the picture is transformed into a set of references to previous parts kinovselennoy, comics and pop culture.
Retrospective and cameo
The storyline with the movements of the time allowed the authors to close the ten-year history of a very beautiful way: the heroes return to the bright moments from past films. First and foremost, we are talking about the first crossover kinovselennoy (and indeed the first such large-scale crossover) "The Avengers."
Viewers give the opportunity to see the famous scene of the battle again with unexpected camera angles, a short time to meet with Loki and find out what makes Stephen Strange and Elder at this point.
Return to the "Guardians of the Galaxy" shows how ridiculous side looked Peter Quill, when walked on the matter at the beginning of the film. But the scene where Thor, along with missiles sent during the action movie "Thor: the kingdom of darkness" rather touching: he meets a long-lost mother. And these emotional moments show a lot more.
Steve Rogers through the glass watching his beloved Peggy Carter, Tony Stark's father hugs. The authors fill in the gaps in the history of kinovselennoy and allow characters to say goodbye to loved ones, and the viewers - with your favorite secondary characters.
And if some of them, such as elder, have a direct impact on the story, the other kind of Corgi or Jarvis added just for fun the audience. Do not forget, of course, and Stan Lee. And this is his last cameo.
But the final scene of the global battle for the number of characters that can be compared only with such a moment of "first player to prepare." Avengers managed to turn back the clock and revive all vanished, but Thanos from the past again attacking their entire army. And this, of course, just an excuse to show all important and not so Marvel heroes.
C the first time to see each is simply impossible, so fans will go exactly in the movie more than once, or wait for the digital release and disassemble the whole battle of the HR. Only the most attentive can see in a crowd, for example, Howard-duck.
In addition to the central characters of the film, the emphasis is on the individual characters, which seem to play a role in the further development kinovselennoy: a lot of time given Spider-Man, The Valkyries, who returned suddenly to Captain Marvel. The rest just flashed just for a minute or two. But the authors of this mouth Wong Samoironichnye simply say, "Where else more."
These scenes are just for fun the audience: Iron Man fights back to back with his beloved, rocket flies at Warriors, Falcon fights wings tanks near Groote. It's just a fan service, but in a hitherto unprecedented scale.
Parallels and reflection
However, references to previous films are not limited to memories and old characters. The entire film is filled with sequels, copies or mirror reflections of scenes from previous films or comics.
To begin with Bruce Banner, who in all previous history fought the Hulk, and now have found a balance with it and can be both smart and strong. Then Hawkeye after the loss of family becomes a vigilante Ronin, as it was in the comics.
And then you can have repeatedly noted, the authors beat scene. Sometimes witty, for example, in the movie "The First Avenger: another war" many remember the great fight scene in the elevator. At this time, Captain America is again in the same situation, but now he says, "Hail Hydra" and goes without a fight. This is both a joke on the previous film, and a reference to the comics in 2016, where Steve Rogers for some time considered himself agent "Hydra".
And when he starts to fight with yourself from the past, of course, the classic Captain says his favorite: "I can do this all day."
In other scenes, it turns into a tragedy: hike Hawkeye and Black Widow by stone soul copy a scene from "War infinity" where Thanos sacrificed his daughter for the sake of production. But now old friends are fighting for a chance to survive, and in order to sacrifice himself. Clint survives, but he was not happy about it.
Sometimes it is sending to the almost forgotten moments. In the "Age of Ultron" Tony Stark had seen Captain America with a broken shield. And Thanos did his double-sword almost breaks it. And in the same "Age of Ultron" The captain was able to slightly move the hammer of Thor. And now, at the critical moment arrives the weapons to the Avengers, helping to cope with Thanos.
After the return of Captain Marvel is going together again all women's team superheroes - the same as it was in the "endless war", but now they are even more.
And the tragic outcome looks like a reflection of the finals of "War of infinity." Then, after the defeat of Tony Stark was holding the dying Peter Parker. Now Spider-Man after defeating trying to keep the wounded Iron Man.
Pop Culture and Cinema
But sending out and beyond kinovselennoy. In the movie "The Avengers: Finale" can be seen and jokes on other popular franchises. The first is, of course, concerns time travel. In this regard, the world of the film, with all its mystery and very close to our superheroes. When it comes to a time machine, all remember "Back to the Future."
Then arrange the characters debate about the realism of these scenes, as if pulling him from the audience. And then they are surprised that seriously discussing the theory of cinema. This again is self-irony and partly disclaimer: because no one expects from science fiction films full credibility.
There are also references to other movies, TV shows and a lot of history. Some directly striking the Torah because of his appearance name-calling The Big Lebowski. Other less visible and clearly will be the subject of fan collections.
For example, a poster on the wall of a support group is very similar to the TV series "Left Behind." One of the directors personally starred as a member of the very group support. And in small roles appear two actors from the TV series "Community" - project Russo brothers.
Who have gone for ever, and who returned
Yet "The Avengers: Finale" - is primarily a farewell to kinovselennoy in the form in which her fans are used to seeing. It is already known that the project will not be closed: planned new films, sequels and TV series. But everyone knew in advance that one of the important characters leave the franchise. It remained only to understand who it is and, more importantly, how.
The first death was totally unexpected. Not the first month there is talk of a solo movie about the Black Widow. But, apparently, it will be a prequel, as Natasha Romanoff gave her life for the soul stone. And this event is not canceled even return of the remaining characters.
At the same time with Gamora, which certainly will be in the continuation of "Guardians of the Galaxy", by unscrew - we took the character from the past. Now James Gunn will be able to tell the new love story Peter Qwill and mercenary.
On the death of Tony Stark's many guessed. Many just kinovselennoy was tied to this character: it all started with him, he was behind all the important discoveries and helped win almost every global battle. Therefore, if the next story and should be changed, then without him. But still, the breath of all captures.
Before the snap of his fingers, he says the final phrase of the first film kinovselennoy Marvel: «I - Iron Man." farewell scene with Tony Stark - a farewell to the past. Flashed all VIPs, even a boy from the third "Iron Man" stands apart. Daughter asks his assistant Happy cheeseburger - the first food that Tony wanted to try himself on his return from captivity.
But this farewell becomes final. Takes another protagonist kinovselennoy. But exactly the opposite way: Steve Rogers is sent into the past, where he began his story. And decides to stay there, having exchanged exploits a superhero to life with Peggy Carter - they still danced their dance. The authors showed two completely different lives of two main characters kinovselennoy.
And it is so ambiguous they close the first chapter kinovselennoy and give hope for a new one. In place of Tony Stark, Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff come new heroes. And the old, as he said Thanos in "War of infinity", only the memory remains. In this case - the memory of Marvel fans who were waiting for the "Final" 11 years and 22 films.
