Captain America: Civil War
10 out of 10
This movie offers an enormous display and a lot of superheroes like the Avengers, however, it feels more noteworthy and grounded by examination due to how our heroes communicate and go up against the obligation of being a superhero. It's all taken care of stunningly considering how overwhelming the task was to incorporate over twelve key characters, each with their own key characters, each with their own key part and character curve. Captain America: Civil War isn't perfect, but it's the sort of comic book film you never thought you would see executed so efficiently and attractively. This is a MUST SEE MOVIE! I like this movie, so I'll give you a breakdown blow by blow of the film. I must advise you that this section of my article is a SPOILER ALERT, so do not read this section if you do not want to know too many details about the movie before you watch it.
With that said......
There was so much collateral damage done by the previous efforts of the Avengers that the United Nations decided to come together to introduce the Sokovia Accords. This is a resolution that will turn the superheroes into a task force overshadowed by the United Nations itself. Not all of the heroes are ready to blindly follow the commands of an organization that could potentially have the same agenda as S.H.I.E.L.D. from the previo
us movies, and that is what leads to the dramatic superhero conflict in Captain America: Civil War. The story starts with Captain America driving Black Widow, Falcon, and Scarlet Witch on a mission in Nigeria, in a quest for Crossbones (otherwise known as previous S.H.I.E.L.D. operator, Rumlow ) who has been making a run on different strongholds with no concern for human life. The Avengers emerge victoriously, but the victory included some significant pitfalls with honest lives being lost because of a misstep by Scarlet Witch and her advanced, upgraded powers.
This was the last straw that causes the government to mediate with the Sokovia Accords, causing a rift between our superheroes. While Steve Rogers doesn't feel great being send into a fight in which he might not have any stake in. Tony Stark supposes that should be held under tight restraints after a sincere experience, at last, imparts in him the obligation he ought to have for the lives he can't spare. Imagine a scenario where there are lives lost in light of his childish inspirations to be a superhero.
Each of them supposes they're settling on the right choice by signing or not signing the Sokovia Accords, and that is the thing that makes the gradually developing clash so convincing. Neither Steve Rogers nor Tony Stark is unmistakably right or wrong in this battle, and picking a side as a viewer isnt' so highly contrasting. Muddling things significantly more are the reemergence of The Winter Soldier, apparently in charge of another terrorist attack that slaughters even more innocent people, which is likewise the impetus that brings the Black Panther into play.
The conflict heightens from here as Steve Rogers tries to keep Bucky safe from meeting a shocking end on account of the government and their contracted Avengers, realizing that Bucky isn't behind the latest assault. While Avengers like Falcon and Scarlet Witch stick by Rogers by not signing the Accords, War Machine, and Black Widow select to agree with Stark and acknowledge the way that they require oversight. The outcome is two diverse sides who are in the quest for Bucky, one attempting to prove his innocence and the other wants him respond about his wrongdoings throughout the decades. In the meantime, a mysterious man named Zemo is seeking to find out more information about a specific mission The Winter Soldier was sent on in 1991 for reasons unknown.
On the off chance that is sounds like a lot is going on, that is on account of there is. However, the script from Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely handles everything in an exceptionally composed manner. Despite the fact that the main storyline feels like it's everywhere, all the characters are taken care of in a shockingly sorted out style, and every one of them has a significant part that is characteristically fixing to Captain America's interest to recover his friend. Vision and his connection with Scarlet Witch are champions in such manner. However, every legend has the motivation to pick a side in the exciting airport fight that has been teased in the trailers.
At last, Captain America: Civil War succeeds on account of the preparation that has been laid by various movies before it. In any case, it's the manner by which the film proceeds with the development and story of the characters that makes Civil War work. Towards the day's end, Caption America: Civil War is a Marvel motion picture that is both new and natural.
The Jungle Book
9 out of 10
The Jungle Book is a modern update of Rudyard Kipling's classic book of short stories that has many intense and frightening scenes which involve menacing wild animals. This film has a blend of live-action and photo-realistic computer generated effects. The action-packed adventures was inspired by Disney's 1967 animated musical and has an all-star cast including Idris Elba, Ben Kingsley, Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong'o, Bill Murray, Christopher Walken and of course the star of the film, Neel Sethi. The Jungle Book tells the story of a young child by the name of Mowgli, the orphaned "man-cub" who was raised as a wolf. Young Mowgli is also hated by the jungle's most vicious predator, a tiger by the name of Shere Khan. There are numerous amounts of intense moments that this beautiful and mysterious film brings. There are also a lot of fight scenes as well that are pretty vicious and involves fangs, fur, claws, and roars. These particularly intense scenes may scare young viewers, but if they know the story line and have seen the previous Jungle Book, then they will be fine because they know the animals that they are watching are not real. The film is a must see; it has such gorgeous aura and adamant messages about the importance of being courageous, working as a team living as a non-traditional family and most importantly maintaining friendships.
Keanu
7 out of 10
First, let me give a disclaimer, I prefer more street, urban comedy such as the Friday movie series with comedic actors like Mike Epps, Chris Tucker, and Katt Williams, with that said this film is ultimately more of your "corny comedy" revolving around the quest for charming kitty cat. I will admit, I was moved by the lengths people are willing to go for their friends. That to me is the best kind of comedic humor with heart. This movie evolved from a previously aired TV show "Key and Peele." They took a slight thought from one of their skits on their show regarding the quest for a charming cat that has disappeared and turned into a comedic film. They star as Clarence and Rell, an unassuming, white collar class, wedded individual and his alright doing companion. Rell has recently fallen into a sense of despair in the wake of having been dumped by his long-lasting girlfriend. His soul and feeling of reason were reestablished when he finds a poor cat at his doorstep and receives the adorable creature as his new pet, naming it Keanu, after the character in the Matrix movie to solidify how strong the bond between him and the cat was as if he was "his savior." Not long after, trouble arrives one night when in the wake of having gone to see a movie start off their weekend together (with Clarence's family being away), Clarence and Rell find that Clarence's home has been burglarized and destryed and that the thieves have taken Keanu alongside them. Rell enrolls his geeky cousin Clarence and a corporate group building pro, to penetrate the posse and recover his feline from the gangs leader (Method Man). For their first film together this is an excellent way to see if their corny sense of humor is a good match for you or not. If the movies that normally draw you in are Marlon Wayans films such as "Fifty Shades of Black" or "White Chicks," then this may just be the film for you.
X-Men Apocalypse
9.5 out of 10
X-Men: Apocalypse, it was an action-packed movie that you'll never forget. There were a lot of reasons to anticipate greatness from the continuation of the X-Men movie franchise. X-Men in 2000 that revived the genre and X2: X-Men United (2003) was even better, but the series stumbled with X-Men: First Class (2011) prequel, The Wolverine (2013), and X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014). But it's important to note how much has changed in the past 16 years. The property has an army of interesting characters in its heroes and villains. Although I must admit one of my true frustrations over X-Men: Days of Future Past was how much it relied on you having seen the previous films. For its story to make sense, before it's time-traveling conclusion kicked those previous movies sorta irrelevant giving us a clean slate from X-Men, X2, and X-Men: The Last Stand's expulsion becomes
cleared in X-Men: Apocalypse as characters who were introduced to each other in those films. There were familiar characters and new characters. There was suspense, drama,and heartfelt scenes like you've never seen. First Class gave us X-Men in the 60s, the decade that started it all for the Children of the Atom. Days of Future Past gave us the 70s; the decade that gave us so many mythology-defining story arcs and characterizations. Now we finally get to see the X-Men in the 80s, yet another heyday for their comic book counterparts. Set in 1983--ten years after the events of Days of Future Past. X-Men: Apocalypse finds Charles "Professor X" at Xavier happily overseeing his school for the gifted, with Hank "Beast" when the world's oldest, mutant, Apocalypse (our villain), has also stumbled into this decadent era after awakening. The first mutant he comes across is what feels like the "real" Storm, with her white mohawk and 80s swagger. He sees her leading a band of kids who steal for food on the streets of Cairo, in a nod to her classic comic book origins. This Storm spends most of the movie serving the film's villain, but it's a treat to see her potrayed so well on screen for the first time. Without giving away too much of the movie, I'll just slip to my favorite scene with Quicksilver where he saved all of the schools kids with an incredible slow-motion moment that showed us what it looks and feels like to move as quickly as Quicksilver. Side note: for those of you that are also, Captain America fans and are probably wondering how is he even alive didn't Quicksilver die in Avengers: Age of Ultron? Well, this is part of what makes all of the rights issues so confounding. Fox controls all of the characters in the X-Men universe and the term "mutant" itself. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are tricky because they are both X-Men characters and members of the Avengers in the comics. They are both children of Magneto, a story point that had to be lost in the Avengers movies because Magneto doesn't exist in the Marvel Comic universe. So this Quicksilver is distinct from the one in Age of Ultron because he exists in an entirely different universe. With that said it sucks that he doesn't have his twin sister, Wanda (Scarlet Witch). Even though she was mentioned in the deleted scenes in Days of Future Past.
Wolverine also makes a special guest appearance as the Weapon X soldier that we all know and love. So, Williams Stryker making his infamous appearance against the mutant community. But of all the mutants Jean becomes the movie's real hero, presenting young Jean as resilient, smart, courageous, but profoundly afraid of the power within. Her journey is essentially far more progressive and satisfying character arc than the "Last Stand" backstory that had the Professor violating her brain to control her. With the post-credits, you'll notice a scene with Essex Corps, which is related to Mr. Sinister, a future villain in a future movie. All in all this film is a must see, but I give it a solid 9.5 only because Quicksilver changed his mind at the last minute about telling Magneto that he's his son.
