If you think Eternals or Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania are the worst movies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), you are wrong: The Marvels (Vietnamese name: Marvel Team) is even worse. that much.
Once again, audiences will (again) see an MCU movie full of technological babble, in a plot that’s not at all exciting.
Brie Larson (Captain Marvel) in The Marvels
The Marvel team brings characters “it’s okay to have, but it’s okay not to have”. With a production cost of up to $270 million, the film makes critics wonder how long the Marvel Cinematic Universe will continue to produce bland, monotonous superhero films like this. .
To enjoy The Marvels, audiences need to preview at least two Ms. Marvel and WandaVision (available on Disney+ for a fee) and the 2019 theatrical film Captain Marvel, so you can at least know who the characters in the film are. But it is like an “investment” that many people will consider not worth the return. Well, let me summarize Marvel Team quickly.
The film is about Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), also known as Carol Danvers, the Avengers superhero who is probably the strongest at the moment, Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani), also known as Ms. Marvel, a superhero. Hyperactive young hero living in Jersey City (USA) and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) appeared as a child in Captain Marvel , gaining powers as an adult in the movie WandaVision .
The main characters of Marvel Team
For some long blah blah reason, this trio must destroy the villain Dar-Benn (Zawe Ashton). The Kree (Captain Marvel’s adopted race) are in the midst of a 30-year war with the Skrulls (who wear green Halloween masks) and a peace treaty that Nick Fury (Samuel L.Jackson) attempts Negotiations were cancelled.
Then, Kree leader Dar-Benn got mad because he thought Captain Marvel destroyed the planet Hala by extinguishing the sun.
Accompanied by very silly action scenes, especially for a cat and then a group of cats appearing as saviors in Kamala’s family.
The film does not focus on the trio of female superheroes, but on the villain Dar-Benn, the vengeful Kree leader, seeking revenge on Captain Marvel. This character is not designed to be evil enough or sinister enough to create the audience’s feeling that fighting against Dar-Benn is a matter of life and death.
Can be considered a sequel to Captain Marvel, Marvel Team has a modest duration of only 105 minutes, the shortest ever in the MCU. But even so, critics feel this is a long, drawn out, and meaningless film.
According to USA Today : ” The Marvels is the rare superhero adventure that seems tailor-made for cat lovers who actually enjoy tons of shenanigans from body-swapping to bouncy songs and dances.” flush”.
And The Telegraph commented: “Superhero movies have fallen to a new bottom. The Marvels is the shortest of the MCU films but it is the most dragging, a groaning nightmare with sloppy effects.” Visual effects have long been a trademark of the series”.
