Captain America: Civil War (May 6, 2016)

[RIDDICK]

The CG and slow-mo action shot were the least of the problems with Age of Ultron.

When half the film is focused on CGI it becomes pretty important. Buy yeah, for me the worst part is post-production dialogs/voiceovers - what's fine for TV should be unacceptable for a major blockbuster.

The biggest problem was story!

Say what you want about AOU, at least its not boring.

Boring may not be the right word for it, but constant action and sensory overload at the expense of a focused story doesn't make me particularly involved or interested in what's going on.

pointless is one word i would use. meaningless action, against meaningless clones.
pointless action is still pointless. which makes it boring.

Man of steel was not "Boring" by any means, second half is nothing but action. Robocop remake is nothing but action too

are THOSE great movies just because they are not "Boring?"

Maybe boring is too harsh a term for DOFP, the plot certainly had me engaged but that entire series lacks thrilling superhero set pieces, which AOU had in abundance.

The QS scene was the only cool superhero part.

Im not even defending DOFP

Im only thinking that Ultron had action but it wasn't engaging or even entertaining, or even memorable.

I saw ultron twice already and I can't remember wtf goes on at the end, I only remember everyone beating up uultron and the conversation he has with Vision.

From the moment that city goes up to the moment Ultron gets beat up It all feels like a haze. I dont remember well why Quicksilver gets shot, (Dont remember what lead to that,

Who shoots him? have no idea, I dont remember why Scarlet Witch ends up grabbing Ultron's heart, how did she end up with him?
how do they save the city from crashing to the earth?

Where the hell was War Machine and what did he do? I vaguely remember him showing up at the end but dont remember what he does.

It is not because I wasn't paying attention, The last half of Ultron feels like a big mess with characters running around killing pointless robots just adding screen time to the movie so that they can all attack Ultron at the end. (most of the action feels like filler)

The only scene I truly loved was Hulk Vs Ironman.

Well, most of the action is weak, so it's pretty boring for me.

There are only 2 action sequences in Aou I like a lot: Hulk vs IM and Ultron+QS+SW vs Avengers.

That's it. I can >>>> most of the rest.

 

[jye4ever]

Don't get wrong, i'm happy that muther****er Whedon is gone.

I thank him for assembling the Avengers now GTFO!

The biggest problem was story!

Overall the story is fine. The screenplay was crap.

 

[karamazov80]

Hulk vs. Iron Man was very good. But the film was paced and edited in such a way that the audience couldn't fully appreciate it as they should have been able to.

Because it was too much stuff. I'll give Whedon that, he made it watchable AND enjoyable despite the ASM2++ level of amount of content it has.

 

[chewblacca]

Yeah, he had to continue from the last Avengers, add bits from the individual films and be a lead in for not only Civil War, Thor Ragnarok, but also Infinity war. Whedon had a lot to cram in there.

 

[crows]

B ASM2++ level of amount of content it has.

i bothered at how no one else calls out ultron because of this... it dis feel like spiderman 3 or amazing spiderman 2

Most of the characters suffered for it.

Should've jettisoned the love story for starters.

 

[chewblacca]

Yeah him and Portman had some bad chemistry. She felt more like a little sister than a love interest.

 

[boylost99]

I think he meant widow and banner in aou?

 

[karamazov80]

Overall the story is fine. The screenplay was crap.

But, the story is a function of the screenplay. The screenplay is the mechanism by which the story is conveyed to the audience. Unless you're just talking about the broad outline of the story?

plus the farm was very idiotic

The party was worse. Between War Machine stories and the Pepper v Jane pissing contest I couldn't wait for Ultron to show up.

Yep, totally cringe. It would have been more interesting if that drink killed Stan, then Thor and Steve would propping him up like Weekend at Bernie's.
