It feels like the people who shot the hand-to-hand combat scenes in this were working on a somewhat different movie than the people doing the CGI-heavy scenes. In the former, getting thrown into, like, a wooden door is a serious and dramatic impact for a character to take. In the latter, standing a foot away from an exploding jet engine just causes them to be stunned and knocked back a bit. There's some individually solid pieces of action in this, but the movie can't decide if people are humans who get cut and bleed and need stitches and ibuprofen or if they're indestructible cartoon characters. Either of which could be fine, but mixed together like this it's hard to know what the personal stakes are from moment to moment.

Love to tease a TV show on the premise that its conflict will result from an unambiguous lie that can be resolved with a quick conversation.

Everyone posted:Nor can I tell you how that motivation is going to survive a 30-second conversation with Clint in the Hawkeye show, but there you go. I'm guessing it's a conversation with Kate Bishop that will handle it, not Clint, but if the point is to recreate the Hawkeye/Black Widow dynamic with younger, cheaper actors, then the conflict being easy to resolve would seem like a plus.

Everyone posted:Set-up to what end? Who did you think would be under the Yelena mask? I was surprised the private-contractor supply guy added up to so little—everyone else given that much attention was way more important to the plot—so maybe him?

Mameluke posted:he's in the movie so you have someone to think "that's taskmaster" That requires you not to notice that the dude has near a foot on ScarJo and Taskmaster didn't.
