Here is My Movie Review of Mickey 17

Now when I saw the trailer for this film I was super excited because of the initial idea of this film having revolved around this guy Mickey Barens gets killed but then coming back and see himself and the Clone so that was a really interesting idea but they did not excited me actually more what the idea of Mark Ruffalo playing a villain because he is always the nice guy in movies he's not the villain. I heard a lot of people saying that this is one of the best films of this year. So I watched this film and I gotta say this is one of the biggest surprises of the year because I knew I was going to like this movie but I didn't know I was going to like it this much.

So basically what happens and that takes place in 2015 you have this guy named Mickey Barnes Who is with his friend Timo And they are on the spaceship and they are going to this ice planet And 4-year layer they arrive on the ice Planet and but in order to survive on the planet the astronaut to make this vaccine which will make them immune to freezing to death and Mickey Barnes is sent out on a dangerous task but he end up dying but he comes back and he sees his cloned self named Mickey 17. But then you have this guy named Kenneth Marshall who is essentially like the mayor of the Star ship crew who is telling his team to go on the planet to kill these things known as The Creepers because he viewed them at a threat but Nikki Barnes starts to like them and Kenneth threatens to kill Mickey Barnes and have clone and it's up to mickey Barnes and his clone to take down Kenneth Marshall and save the creepers and get back home to Earth and that's basically what the storyline is for this film. I have to say the storyline this movie is one of the most unique storylines for a movie of this entire year because the idea of Colonie is nothing new but having it be an outer space have a ton of potential in the film executes it really perfectly and it's up there with the Love Hurts with Key Huy Quan as one of the most interesting storylines of the entire year. 

The acting in this movie is magnificent and I'm going to say this is one of the best  acted films of the entire year because everyone is doing a flawless job as their characters and you can tell that everyone is having the time of their lives playing these characters. I think this film is up there with Thunderbolts* as one of the best acted films of the entire year. 

Now let's talk about Robert Pattinson. Look, this guy is a magnificent actor. I enjoyed him in movies like The Lighthouse from 2019, Good Time, The Devil All The Time and The Batman from 2022. But I have to say this is probably one of his best performances of the entire film because he's playing three characters because plays Mickey Barnes, Mickey 17, and Mickey 18 and he does a fantastic job as all three of these characters. Now the character of Mickey Barnes is a very humble and really sympathetic character because he wants to Save all the creepers and take down Kenneth Marshall and get back home. The scene where Mickey Barnes is rescuing all the creepers with his clone Mickey 17 is one more powerful and emotional moment of the entire film because he really wants to save the creatures from this planet so they don't get killed by Kenneth Marshall. Is probably one of the most magnificent moments of the entire film. Now Mickey 17 as a character  is also really interesting because he wants to help his original self take down Kenneth Marshall and Rebel against him and save all the creepers from the planet.The scene where Mickey 17 meets his original self and starts to freak out is not only really funny but it makes sense because he didn't know that he was a clone of his original self. It is probably one of the funniest moments of the entire film. Now Mickey 18 as a character is incredible because he also wants to help his clown and Mickey Barnes to save all the creepers that live on the planet. The scene where Mickey 18 sacrifices himself to take down Kenneth Marshall is one of the fast moments of the entire film because Mickey Barnes is begging him not to do it but Mickey 18 has to to save all the creatures on the planet from being killed by Kenneth Marshall. It is probably one of the most tragic moments of the entire film. The chemistry between him and Naomi Ackie, Steven Youn, Toni Colette, And Mark Ruffalo Is magnificent because I believe all these actors have glorious chemistry with one another. 

Naomi Ackie plays Nasha Berridge In the film. I have to say she still does a glorious job playing the character she gets such a magnificent and entertaining and really fun performance. Now the character of Nasha Berridge Is incredible because you can tell that she really cares about Mickey Barnes and wants to help him and his clones save the creepers  from being killed by Kenneth Marshall and get back home to Earth. The scene where she and Mickey Barnes are threaded through the snow trying to rescue all the creepers is really powerful and emotional moment because they do not want the animals to be killed by Kenneth Marshall. It is probably one of the most incredible moments of the entire film. Also I think the romance between her and Mickey Barnes is one of us lighthearted and one of the more entertaining aspects of the entire film. I do believe that they're romance is the strongest thing in the entire film. The chemistry between her and Robert Pinson is magnificent. I think their chemistry is the strongest thing in this entire film. 

Steven Young plays Mickey Barnes's best friend Timo In the film. I have to say he still does a Splendid job as the character. He gives one of the most raw and one of most entertaining and fun performances of the entire film. Now the character of Timo Is one of the most interesting characters of the entire film because they want to help with friend Mickey Barnes rescue all the creepers on the planet and protect them and take down Kenneth Marshall and get back home and I think The bonding between him and Mickey Barnes is the highlight of the entire family on magnificent chemistry and their friendship in the strongest aspect of the entire film. The scene where Timo points a gun at Kenneth Marshall's wife Yifa Marshall and not only was it a really dark moment but it makes sense because Timo had enough of being controlled in the wants to stop following Kenneth Marshall's orders so you can by him trying to kill kenneth Marshall's wife because he hates being treated like a puppet essentially being control by someone else and being manipulated. It is probably one of the most nail biting moments of the entire film. The chemistry between him and Robert Pattinson is magnificent and really entertaining. I think that they have awesome and tremendous chemistry with each other and I would love to see him and Robert Pattinson in another film together. 

Toni Colette Plays Kenneth Marshall's wife Yifa Marshall  In the film. I have to say she still does a magnificent and wonderful job playing this character. You can tell that she is having a lot of fun playing this essentially snotty and entitled woman who only cares about her husband and what makes him happy. She enjoys watching him train people like garbage. Now the character of Yifa Marshall  Is really incredible because she is a spoiled and accentuate a  bitch she doesn't care about anyone except for her husband Kenneth Marshall and just enjoys watching and treat people like other shit she relishes in the fact That her husband enjoys enjoy trading People like garbage and enjoy fowling his orders is really disturbing and really entertain to watch. The scene where She sees Mickey Barnes gets  hurts and her husband kenneth marshall it's about to like put him out with misery and she screamed I'm saying that you can't put blood on the carpet and not only was it really funny but it makes sense because his wife is essentially spoiled because she doesn't want any blood on her nice new carpet and it's what the funniest moments of the entire film. The chemistry between her and Robert Pattinson is Incredible. 

However the absolute biggest standout of the entire film is Mark Ruffalo as Kenneth Marshall  because his performance is one of the most entertaining and one must over the top performances of the entire film. Now this is really different performs from Mark Ruffalo because he really played really nice characters like Bruce Banner from the MCU. But in this film he essentially plays a snarky douchebag Who wants everything to go his way and he does a stellar job playing this very smug and very arrogant character and you can tell that Mark Ruffalo had a blast playing this character. Now the character of Kenneth Marshall is really interesting because he is essentially very similar to Maxwell Lord from Wonder Woman 1984, how both characters want everything to go their way. They are very smug and very arrogant and don't give a shit about anything but themselves. But the difference being that was Maxwell Lord you can feel bad for him but with Kenneth Marshall you can because of how snug and arrogant he is.The scene where Kenneth Marshall is Demands his team to kill the creepers is not only really dark but it makes sense because he viewed them as a threat and he wants to kill Mickey Barnes by having him be killed in a skirmish In the battle between the humans and the creepers. It is probably one of the most nail biting moments of the entire film.   Not to mention Kenneth Marshall is fun to hate because you really want something bad to happen to this jackass and something does happen to him he gets blown up and he dies. I think he's up there with Alvin Knuckles from Love Hurts as one of the most narcissistic but one of the most entertaining villains of this year. The Rivalry between him and Mickey Barnes is excellent because he really hates him, he just wants to kill him so everything will go his way so he can still be in control of the ship. The chemistry between him and Robert Pattinson is tremendous. 

But the thing I really want to talk about is the directing by Bon Joan Ho because he is a tremendous director because he directed the movie Okja from 2017 and he also directed Parasite from 2019. I think he did a magnificent job directing both of those films. I have to say this is probably his best directed film because what I love about his directing is that He does a glorious job of like making you care for Mickey Barnes because this is a guy that's been dying and he was cloned And he wants to help have the creepers survive and take down Kenneth Marshall because he is sick of falling his orders because he is a horrible and corrupt and disgusting politician that has done a lot of evil things. But I also like how he  showed  the dark side of politics because politicians can be really manipulated. But they can control the world and manipulate others to join their side. I think it was really magnificent how he did that because politicians are very tricky and really hard to understand. I think it is really incredible how he directed this film.

So in conclusion I still enjoy this film because I saw the trailer and I thought it looked really awesome. Now this is probably one of the biggest surprises of the entire year I thought I'll go like it but I never knew that I was going to like it this much because this movie well I had its frame moment and don't they brilliant job of taking the material stairs way and I also like how the film manages to discuss politics in a perfect way showing how cruel and corrupt some of them can be. Also Robert Pattinson gives another tremendous performance that he has ever given in his entire career. I still think the biggest standout is Mark Ruffalo as Kenneth Marshall and really self-centered politician who doesn't really care about anything except for being in the center of attention. He enjoys treating everyone like garbage because views himself as superior. It was actually really fun to see Mark Ruffalo play a straight up villain. I think Kenneth Marshall is up there with Red Hulk from Captain America Brave New World as one of the most entertaining villains of this year. I still think he is also up there with The High Evolutionary from Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 as one of the most entertaining villains of the 2020s. I highly recommend you see this film. You will not be disappointed because the storyline is magnificent and all the performances are really great but I highly recommend you watch it just for Mark Ruffalo's captivating and entertaining performance. Also if you enjoy really entertaining films like Love Hurts with Ke Huy Quan. Then I'm sure you're going to like this film as well. I give this movie a 10/10.

Here is My Movie Review of Kraven The Hunter

 

Here is My Movie Review of Kraven The Hunter

Now when this film was announced I was very much against the idea of a Kraven the Hunter movie because I knew that they are going to get this character wrong and they did because they essentially took everything about Kraven The Hunter and ruined him because they make him into a good guy. and that's not what he is, Kraven is supposed to be just pure evil. So I watched the film and finished it. Let me tell you this film is not only the worst comic book film of all time. But this is the second worst film I have ever seen in my life yes it's even worse than Joker Folie A Deux because that film is  shit and I fucking hate it. But at least there were two good things I can say about that film, Danicing in the Moonlight and the cinematography was actually really great. But with this film I couldn't even say anything that's good about it because it's virtually nothing I can say that is entertaining and I couldn't even laugh about how bad this movie was because with other horrible movie that I've seen I can  laugh about how stupid they are like Capone with Tom Hardy I can watch Tom Hardy shit his pants and that is a lot more funny than anything in this film. I can go on other movies I like to laugh at about how stupid they are but with this I just simply cannot do it. 

Now let's talk about the storyline I'm going to be completely and utterly series here i can't tell you what it is I legit can't tell you what the storyline is because this movie is very similar to Megalopolis from 2024 because both of these movies have no storyline because both movies are a mess and turn the storyline and writting because at least with other horrible movies i haven't seen I can only tell you what the storyline is for some of those movies like Capone, Speed 2 Cruise Control, Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes you know what fuck it even that film had a way better storyline then this piece of shit did because at least I can fucking explain what Tim Burton´s Planet of the Apes is about. Now trust me we'll get to the horrible acting. 

You know, let's just dive into right now let's talk about the atrocious acting in this film because look I have seen some really bad movies with some really bad acting like The Snowman from 2017, Death Note 2017, Firestarter 2022, Green Lantern 2011. Now I can go on and talk about other movies with bad acting but at least with these movies that i am talking about at least they have one or two good performances. But with this movie no there were no good performances. 

Now let´s about Aaron Taylor Johnson and I'm going to be completely honest I was really against him playing Kraven The Hunter because what I saw him in the trailer he did not look like the character and I was completely right because he does not resemble his character from the comics at all because he does not put on a Russian accent now in the beginning of the movie he does a little bit but he most was using an American accent and that was completely fucking stupid because every comic book fan knows that Kraven is Russian, and I'm going to say this I think this is the worst super villain casting choice of all time and it is up there with Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn from Joker 2 as well the dumbest casting choices of all time. Now I went on about the performance how is the character of Kraven the Hunter in the film it's actually far worse than any comic book character brought to life yes it managed to be even worse than Apocalypse from X-Men Apocalypse because in this film they decided to make Kraven into a good guy and not like a villain like they promised in the trailers. Also his costume looks like garbage and when I looked at it I was like sitting here I was like that don't look like the costume from the comics that was like Jake Gyllenhaal in that piece of shit film Known as Prince of Persia because it doesn't even wear his iconic like coat that he can wear in the comics you wear them a few times but mostly he like wearing The costume from Prince of Persia. Also I can't even tell you any good scenes with Kraven The Hunter because they're all fucking lame because all the scenes were really boring and trust me we'll talk about the pacey of this film later on. 

Ariana DeBoes Plays Calypso in this film in her performance if so unbearable to sit through it feels like she's just reading off the script and you can tell that she did not want to do this movie it feels like he just wanted to walk off set and just not do this film at all. Now I'm going to say this if you think her performance in Love Hurts was bad when she played the character Rose in that film i'm going to be completely honest she was a lot more badass and cooler in that film than she was in this film because the character that she played in Love Hurts Rose was a lot more fun and a lot more interesting and the character because the character she plays in this film calypso is so bad and so boring all she does is give expedition and the movie tried to make her and Kraven into like a couple or like friends and it does not work at all I'm going to say this they have no chemistry throughout this entire movie because you can't really buy them as friends or boyfriend girlfriend you just can't. I'm going to say that the chemistry between her and Aaron Taylor Johnson was fucking shit because they had no chemistry in this film whatsoever it feel like both of them didn't want to do this movie together and I'm going to go and say this I think Ariana DeBoes and Ke Huy Quan had better chemistry in Love Hurts then she did with Aaron Taylor Johnson in this film. 

Now the actor who plays Chameleon Kraven´s brother is so terrible he is completely miss cast because His performance feels like it's from a horrible Spider-Man musical adaptation because every time he he said something in the film I was like nobody cares in the words of Dr Robotnik from The Sonic the Hedgehog movies nobody cares because the character of Chameleon is a mess because much like Kraven in the film they make chameleon Americanized he doesn't even have a Russian accent in this film and he's just so boring and very Bland and in the comics his face is supposed to be like Pure White because he had that serum injected into him Then give them the power to disguise himself as anyone. Well in this film it happens in the last 5 minutes in the movie So that concept Completely wasted because the only uses his mimicry skills from the comics the only time he does it is again at the end. This film also got his origin wrong because in the comics before he meets Kraven as an adult he escapes from a mental institution and here they just know each other since they were kids which was so dumb. Not to mention this film has one of the dumbest moments I have ever seen in a comic book film and yes it's even dumber than the dancing scene in Spider-Man 3 and I'm going to say this this was a million times worse then the dancing scene with Imam Vellani from The Marvels and that is where you have the chameleon he's in the bar he's on stage and he grabbed the microphone and he literally starts seeing a fucking Harry Style song and it is the most dumbest moments you'll ever see in a comic book film because at least with the dancing scene in The Marvels it was shorter and it was way more tolerable to sit through and actually entertaining then the chameleon singing in this film. Also there is no chemistry between the two characters because it feels like they're just too completely different strangers that don't even know each other yet they randomly know each other in this film. Also the chemistry between Fred Hechinger and Aaron Taylor Johnson is so bad they have no chemistry throughout this entire movie they have as much chemistry Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga had in Joker 2 it's that kind of shitty chemistry. 

Now Russell Crowe is the only actor that is seemingly giving a good performance but to be honest it was just really boring because of nothing interesting about the performance all I saw was just Russell Crowe play himself now I will say though he did attempt to put on Russian accent but did not work because it was just really blade and really dull Because he plays cravens dad in the film it just feels like he just wanted to get this movie over with because it feels like he's just not having any fun doing the film. I know a lot of people say that he's not that bad in this movie But to me he was just really boring. Also Cravens dad at a character is just so boring he's about to be the secondary villain it just does not work he's just there to say Kraven you have to be like me you have to kill as many people as you can and that was just really bland and really stupid and the chemistry between him and Aaron Taylor Johnson does not work because it feels like they are in a generic action movie and not a comic book film.

 Now let's talk about The Rhino in this film because it managed to be even dumber than Paul Giamatti’s Rhino from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 because that one is really stupid and really weird. Now the actor who's playing rhino in the film Is getting the most praise because people say he knows the kind of movie he is in. But I did not like his accent. I did not like the person that got to play the Rhino and like just get him off the screen and get an actual professional Russian actor to play the character. Also you don't understand why he wants to kill Kraven the hunter you just don't because the movie did not explain it at all. Now the character of Rhino in the mess because in this film he said that the rhino skin is like a skin condition he has which is not accurate to the comics at all because in the comic books Rhino was experimenting on and that's why he Was covered in armor-plated Skin that resembled a rhino. But here they're like no let's just not be like Killer Croc from DC who had a skin condition. Also this is probably up there with Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn as  the worst comic to movie adaptations you will ever see. The chemistry between Alessandro And Aaron Taylor Johnson is terrible because it feels like they're a really bad '90s comic book film with a super low budget and not like a high budgeted  comic book film From the 2010s or this decade. 

So acting sucks, characters suck. The villains are really boring. What about the action? This is the first R-rated Sony Marvel film and let me tell you all the best moments from this movie are shown in the trailer. Even in the trailer I always thought that The action sequences were going to be very, very stupid. Also the scene where Kraven bites the guy's nose off. I swear it was a lot longer in the trailer but  When you watch the movie it's just immediately shortened. This film has the worst action sequences out of any comic book film or any movie I have ever seen because the action in Black Widow is not great but it is way better than the action sequences in this film. Although the final battle in this film is so stupid because there's no high stakes to it although the way Rhino gets killed it kind of reminds me of the way Mufasa gets killed in The Lion King with the Wildebeest trampling him to death except it's happened to the Rhino but here it's a lot more  stupid. But the difference is The Lion King takes that moment really seriously because Scar wanted to be king of Pride Rock so he killed his brother to accomplish his mission. But here it's just really dumb and really Bland and although the CGI blood looks really fake because it does not look real at all. I'm going to say that the blood in Love Hurts was a lot more realistic than the blood in the film. 

However the worst thing about this movie is the directing by J.C. Chandor because I don't know what he was trying to do with this piece of shit of a movie because it's very obvious that he does not know how to write a storyline for craving the hunter because as I said this movie has no storyline and he didn't get everything wrong about these characters he makes craving to a good guy he makes the Rhino even dumber than he already was in the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Although he tries to develop a romance between Kraven and Calypso does not work whatsoever because both characters have no chemistry whatsoever. I think this is the worst directed film of 2024 and that is saying because Joker 2 was directed horribly  by Todd Phillips because he ruined everything that the first film did. So overall I think he did a horrible job directing this film. It is obvious he doesn't know anything about these characters from the comics. 

So in conclusion I fucking despised every minute of this movie because not only in this movie really dumb it is so unbelievably boring as fuck because all of it is just exposition that is the entire film it's just characters talking because we need to learn about these characters. Also I was so bored with this movie that I went on the chat GBT and ask what are the weirdest casting choices for Marvel villains it said Nicolas Cage as Ultron and to be completely honest I would rather watch  Nicholas Cage voice Ultron because with that be entertaining me bad because I can watch Nicholas Cage go over the top as Ultron just over acting in just screaming at the top of his lungs and I will find that entertaining because Nicholas Cage knows that he's in a bad film because he's self-aware of what movie he is doing also I do think people will praise Nicolas Cage and Ultron as one of the best worst villain performances of all time. Also the final battle in this movie and I guess as well as all the action sequences are really bad because even though this movie is Rated R it does not execute the R rating at all in fact they do it in the laziest way possible. I'm going to say this even though this movie was never Rated R Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was actually darker and more scary but more entertaining than this movie was the fact that it was a PG-13 adventure film because the acting was a million times better. The characters that were actually interesting. Also Mola Ram as a villain was a lot more scarier than the Rhino in this film and that is really stupid the fact that a PG-13 adventure film managed to push the violence way better than this film it just shows how pathetic this movie is and the fact that it was dead on rival the 2nd it went in the theaters. To be honest this movie is up there with Joker 2 as the worst films I've ever seen in my life. Also I'm going to say this I will rather watch all bad Comic  films like Ghost Rider 1 and 2, X3 X-Men the Last Stan, Ant-Man The Wasp Quantum Mania, Captain Marvel, The Marvels, Captain America Brave New World, The theatrical cut of Justice League, Constantine, Thor Love and Thunder, Spider-Man 3, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Suicide Squad, Green Lantern 2011, Madame web, X-Men Origins Wolverine, even the comic book film that I despised so much Batman Versus Superman Dawn of Justice I would rather watch that 7 million times than to ever watch this film again. I say just got this fucking piece of shit and just go watch any other comic book film even the bad one they're 1,000 times more bearable then the film. You know go watch The Room with Tommy Wiseau at least you can laugh at that film because of how stupid it is. I give this movie a -5000/10 fuck this movie and it gets an ornery fuck you to Sony.

Here is My Movie Review of Thunderbolts*

Now when this movie was announced I was not looking forward to it I was like do we really need this do we really need all these nothing characters. That didn't really contribute much to the MCU in a film together. Also the trailers did not interest me, they just looked really dumb and I was like this is going to be a really bad MCU film. But let me tell you this film really shocked me. I end up loving this film because it actually did something that I've been wanting from the MCU  for a long time: focus on the drama and not on the silly MCU comedy. Now this film does have comedy but It focuses on the drama and the idea of being lonely and depressed. But the jokes were relatively funny. They were still entertaining and really fun but this one wasn't overstuffed with jokes because  this film takes itself a lot more seriously.

So basically what happens is that you have Yelena Being sent by Valentina go into the vault and kill whoever is in there but when Elena gets there she finds other people in the Vault and at first they try to kill each other. But then they figure out that Valentina is up to something and they have to stop herBut then they meet This guy named Bob And he joined their team but the thing is he had a very dark and Sinister personality. Called the Void which is his depressing side of him that decides to come out and cause  chaos and destruction throughout New York City it's up to Yelena and her team To take down The Void and have Bob Battle through his trauma and try to control it. That is basically what the storyline is for this film. I have to say at first I thought going by the trailers the storyline would be really bad but surprisingly it was a lot more tragic and a lot more incredible than I thought it would be because this storyline is about stuff like loneliness and being depressed because it is a really good theme for an MCU film and this film executes it tremendously. 

The acting in this film I have to say at first I thought the performance of the warrant going to be really good but I got to say this I was completely wrong the performances or tremendous in fact this is the best acted film in the MCU phase 5 because every single actor is giving it they're all and this is probably the best acted film in the MCU post end game. 

Now the performance. I really want to talk about  Florence Pugh as Yelena  because in Black Widow I thought she was okay in that film. I thought she did an okay job as the character. But I have to say in this film she gives her best performance in the MCU because he just gives such a raw and really captivating emotional performance. Now the character of Yelena is tremendous because in Black Widow I thought she was okay. I thought like she's entertaining but she's not the best MCU character post end game. But I have to say in this film she is tremendous because she has a very dramatic backstory that they dive into  because you find out that she accidentally got a little girl killed by a KGB Soldier and that traumatized Yelena really badly because she didn't want to conquer her fears and confront her past. The scene where Yelena goes into the Void and she sees herself getting that little girl killed it's one of the scariest moments in the entire film because she feels guilty that she got a little girl killed by a russian soldier. It is probably one of the most tragic moments of the entire film. The chemistry between her and Wyatt Russell, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Sebastian Stan, David Harbor, Lewis Pullman, Hannah-John Kaman Is tremendous. You can tell that all these actors have tremendous chemistry with one another.  

Wyatt Russell comes back as John Walker / U.S Agent In the film. It was really incredible because I actually thought he was the best thing about the Falcon and the Winter Soldier because even in parts where that show was not working  John Walker/ U.S Agent was the highlight of the entire show. I have to say in this film he gives his best performance as the character. You can just tell that Wyatt Russell poured so much heart and emotion into this performance. Now the character of John Walker/U.S agent is probably the funniest character in this entire film because his humor was actually really funny and really entertaining but they do give him a dramatic backstory in this film they actually add stuff that wasn't in the Falcon and the Winter Soldier and I think that was tremendous of How they made U.S Agent a better character in the MCU. The scene where john Walker/ us agent said that he is Captain America and Ava Star / Ghost doesn't believe that he is Captain America is not only really funny but it makes sense because he wasn't even the original Captain America it'll Steve Rogers and yet the way that Ava Stars / Ghost kind of makes fun of him saying that he's a fake Captain America was the funniest moment of the entire film. But the thing I really love is where John Walker / US agent guilds in the void and he sees a flashback of himself have an argument with his wife because she wants them to take care of their son and he's kind of ignoring the baby he doesn't want to pay attention to it even though he does say that he is paying attention. But there's actually a really good reason why he was closed off is because he accidentally killed an instant man with his shield so he is traumatized by it and that is why he looks at his phone and it is much like the stuff with Yelena is one of the most depressing moments of the entire film because you really feel bad for you as agent in this film. The chemistry between him and Florence Pugh was magnificent. 

Julia Louis-Dreyfus Comes back as Valentina in the film. I have to say it was really interesting to have her come back because we haven't seen her in the MCU sense Black Panther wakanda forever was l the last time we saw her and in that movie she was just a setup character she didn't really do much. But I have to say she does a glorious job in this movie because she actually has a lot more to do than she did in Black Panther Wakanda Forever. Now the character of Valentina is really interesting because when you first saw her in the MCU. We all thought that she was good, like she wanted to help people. But surprisingly no she had her own evil plans in the film and it's really dark because she sends Elena out on a mission To kill someone but then they find out that they were sent to the vault to kill one another Because Valentina does not believe that these Characters can change because you believe that they're all bad they're all criminals that deserve to die. To be honest Valentina might be the most vile and one of the most cruel villains in the MCU. The scene where she tells Bob/Sentry to kill the Thunderbolts is a really dark and very brutal sequence because she wants all those bones to die. She doesn't believe any of them can change because she says they're all villains and villains don't change. It is probably the most nail binding and one of the most chewing moments of the entire film. The chemistry between her and Florence Pugh Is magnificent. 

Hannah-John Kaman reprises her role as Ava Starr/Ghost In the film. Now here is the thing. I was not looking forward to this film and keep in mind this was actually the main reason why I decided to say this film because I enjoyed Ava Starr/Ghost in Ant-Man and the Wasp and I was like okay if the movie is not good. At least she will be the best thing in the film. To my surprise she still does a magnificent job playing the character and she hasn't played this character since 2018 and I have to say She still Has it because it feels like she has not missed a single beat as this character feels like she knew exactly what he was doing at the character. Now the character of Ava Starr/Ghost has not changed. She is still the same and you also feel bad for her because she is also experiencing loneliness. She just wants someone to spend time with  and she wants to help her team take down The Void and save New York. The scene where Ava Starr/Ghost  and the rest her team telling Bob not to sneeze not only was it really funny but it made sense because they were trying to climb out of the the vault .and if he sneezed there would fell right back down to the bottom it is probably the funniest moment of the entire film. The chemistry between her and Florence Pugh is tremendous. 

David Harbour reprises his role as  Red Guardian in the film. I have to say he still does a glorious job as this character because he was actually my favorite part in Black Widow. He was my favorite performance in that film even in parts where that movie was not working. David Harbour was still fun and entertaining  to watch. I have to think he probably gives one of the best performances and this Character who gives it a raw and incredible captivating performance. Now the character of Red Guardian Had not changed. He is still funny and entertaining and he really wants to help Yelena open up to her emotions and wants to help the rest of his team take down the void and say New York City. The scene where Red Guardian confronts Yelena Telling her that she has to confront her path and try to open up about her emotions it's probably one of the strongest moments between the two characters because Yelena is really closed off well red Guardian just wants to help her and he does apologize for not spending enough time with her and I thought that moment was one of the strongest moments of the entire film. The chemistry between him and Florence Pugh is fantastic. 

Sebastian Stan comes back as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier. I have to say I have always liked him as this character in the MCU ever since he appeared in Captain America the First Avenger. He had always given a spectacular and remarkable performance as this character. Now in this movie that's no different because he still does a tremendous job as the character. In fact I think he gives one of his best performances as this character in the MCU. Now the character of Bucky Barnes / Winter Soldier has not changed you know he is still really serious and I like how they make him a congressman but he is still is the Winter Soldier both physically because he still has his metal arm and at first he doesn't want to help Yelena and her friends because he doesn't help those but he does eventually have a change of heart and decide to help them take down The Void and save New York. The scene where Bucky Barnes / Winter Soldier is fighting Century with the rest of his team and they really awesome action stick with because you'll think they will win but no essentially kicks all of their asses and he even rips off Bucky's entire arm and it they really Awesome and intense action see what's because they learn that they can't take down Sentry because he is way too powerful. It is probably one of the most intense and really fun action sequences of the entire film. The chemistry between him and Florence Pugh is magnificent.

However the absolute big standout on this entire film surprisingly is not Florence Pugh because don't get me wrong she is magnificent in this film. But the true stand out from the entire film is actually Lewis Pullman as Bob/ Sentry/ The Void Because it does such an extraordinary job essentially playing three characters because he plays the innocent but really tragic Bob. But he also plays the powerful and badass hero known as Sentry. Now he also played the very disturbing and very horrifying character The Void. Also Lewis Pullman gave a similar performance to Michelle Pfeiffer in Batman Returns where she played Catwoman and she essentially played different characters in one character. Now the character of Bob you really feels bad for him because he was experimented in the lab against his will, he had a horrible home life and he suffered through drug addiction. He's probably one of the most tragic characters in this entire film because he's gone through a lot of bad stuff. The scene where Bob talks to Yelena about being traumatized is what the saddest and one of the most heart-wrenching moments in the entire film because both of these characters went through traumatic origins Yelena accidentally killed a little girl and Bob had a horrible home life and he was addicted to drugs and he was Depressed all the time he wasn't happy. I think the bond between Bob and Yelena is the strongest aspect of the entire film. Now the character of Sentury is Bob's hero side because he is stronger than the Avengers Valentina why to use him to have him save the world without the use of the Avengers. The scene where Sentury is fighting the Thunderbolts is a really awesome and really amazing scene because he kind of betrayed them because they were friends like his alter ego Bob what their friend but Valentina was just using them so she can have Bob kill his friends in front of her. So she essentially blackmailed Bob into helping her with project Sentry. It is probably one of the most brutal and one of the most shocking moments of the entire film. But let's talk about The Void, the main villain in the film. I thought  he was going to be a generic and boring villain. But to my surprise no he is one of the scariest and best villains in the MCU because he represents depression and he wants to be alone with Bob and kill the Thunderbolts so he can torture and manipulate Bob for all eternity. I think his motivations make sense how the void wants to consume Bob and control him like a puppet and just abuse the crap out of him making his life even worse than it already was. The scene where The Void emerges is one of the scariest moments of this entire film because he emerges and shows Himself to the thunderbolts and starts banishing people to The Void is a really scary and really horrifying but really badass villain introduction scene in the MCU. I think The Void is one of the best villains in the MCU phase 5.  I think he is up there with Alvin Knuckles from Love Hurts as one of the best villains of this year so far. The Void is up there with Green Goblin as one of the best villains of the 2020s. The Rivalry between him and the Thunderbolts is tremendous because he want to psychologically torture them all and have them be trapped inside of him for all of eternity until they die. The chemistry between him and Florence Pugh is tremendous. They have awesome and extraordinary chemistry together throughout the entire film and it's probably one of the best chemistry of the entire year so far. 

However the best thing in this movie is actually the directing by Jake Schreier Now he directed the movie Robot and Frank and he did a magnificent job directing that film. He tackled really powerful and emotional stuff and it was really incredible how I did that in that film. Here that's no different. I think this is his best directed film he has ever directed because unlike Joss Whedon who directed Age of Ultron, he did a really bad job of directing that film because he just made everything into a joke. But he doesn't do that. He actually focuses on the heart and the drama of the film . He tackled the subject of depression and loneliness perfectly because all of these characters are depressed. You know Ghost doesn't have any friends. Yelena is guilty of killing a little girl. John Walker is disappointed in himself for not spending enough time with his kid and Bob is traumatized because he had a horrible life. He had a horrible home life he would experiment on. He was addicted to drugs and had trouble balancing his emotions. I think he did a terrific job of developing all these characters as well as tackling the subjects of being depressed and being lonely perfectly. 

So in conclusion I was really surprised with this film because I thought this movie was going to suck I thought it was going to be one of the worst MCU movies of all time. But surprisingly it turned out to be one of the best MCU films of all time. I also really love the story how it focuses on the subject of depression and loneliness because all these characters are emotionally broken because Bob had the worst of it. He Was addicted to drugs. He had a really bad home life he experimented on against his will. Also having the Thunderbolts team up and help Bob destroy his evil personality The Void is really interesting and I think this film is up there with Guardians of the Galaxy vol 3 and turns out to have one of the best storylines in the MCU. I also think all the characters were terrific. The two standout characters were Yelena and Bob because I think their relationship is one of the strongest aspects of the entire film because they really care about each other because they both have a dramatic past. I also think The Void is up there with The High Evolutionary from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 as one of the best villains in the MCU. I think he is also up there with Alvin Knuckles from Love Hurts as one of the best villains of this year so far. I think he is also up there with Vecna from Stranger Things as one of the best villains of the 2020s. This is by far one of the biggest surprises of the entire year so far and I highly recommend you go see this movie theater and you will not be disappointed. I give this movie a 10/10. 

Here is My Villain Review of The Leader

 

Here is My Villain Review of The Leader

Now I'm going to discuss the character The Leader who is the main villain in 2025´s Captain America Brave New World And explain why he is one of the entertaining Phase 5 MCU Villains of 2025 so far.

Origin- Now the leaders origin is really interesting because his real name is Dr Samuel Stearns who were the scientist who experimented on Blemsky and turned him into the Abomination and wanted to help Bruce Banner get rid of the Hulk side of him so he can be a normal man Then he experimenting on President Ross and turn him into the Red Hulk So he can have him let out all of his emotions and kill captain America. I think the film does a terrific job of telling the leader of the origin story because in the comics he was a scientist and his head did grow due to the chemicals absorbed into his bloodstream. 

Character- now The Leader as character is really interesting because he is pretty unstable because of what He went through because his head mutated and started to grow really big and became obsessed with experimenting on people that is why he experimented on pregnant Ross turning him into the Red Hulk So he can see him let out all his emotions and cause chaos and kill a lot of people including Captain America. I think the film does a decent job of adapting The Leader's character from the comics. They did change a couple things but for the most part he's still an unstable and really intelligent Mastermind of a villain. 

Motivation- Now The Leader´s motivation It's actually really interesting because his motivations is that he want to let out the Red Hulk he wants to push present Roth over the edge and haven't kill a lot of people to get revenge on him from experimenting on him against his will so you can understand why the leader is obsessed with the idea of letting out  emotions and I think for the most part the film does give the Leader a really interesting and fantastic motivation. 

Best Scenes- Now the leader does it play a big role in this film but the scenes that he  does have are actually really fun and really entertaining. If I had to pick my favorite scene it'll be the scene where The Leader says Now we're getting somewhere. The rage. Why don't you just let it out? All that hatred you tried to hide, All the ugliness, It's still there Ross, Smoldering  behind the eyes.  What we agreed on.  Maybe a hair more. Stop taking the pills  then. But we both know you won't.  Stop finding it. Given in your rage. You're almost there, you can rip their fleet with your bare hands and kill Captain America. Unleash your hatred.  Nothing can stop you Ross. You can crush them all. We can fix this. Not only is it really intense and really suspenseful but it makes sense because The Leader wants present Ross to let out all his rage so he can kill as many people and that will make his daughter Betty hate him even more because his daughter does not believe that he has fully changed Also it does turn a little silly because after he said that The Leader randomly screams at the top of his lungs it is one of the most unintentionally funny moments in the film. But it is all thanks to Tim Blake Nelson's suspenseful and scenery chewing performance. 

Evil Deeds- Now The Leader has done a lot of bad things Like how he manipulates President Ross into becoming the Red Hulk to get back at him from experimenting on him against his will. He also tries to kill Captain America by manipulating the Red Hulk into doing it for him  because if he tried to fight Captain America he would lose because the Leader uses his genius Level Intellect. He's not a physical match, he is a psychological threat to Captain America. I think the film did a terrific job of making the leader really sark and really threatening because he wants to push president Roth over the edge so he can kill and make people as possible and try to ruin Ross's reputation. 

Conclusion- The Leader is a really interesting villain how he likes to target Captain America and President Ross psychologically and I think the film executes his character really well from the comics because in the comics The Leader is a really intellectual and unstable character. I also like his motivation how he targets president Ross psychologically to get them to turn into the Red Hulk and let out all that anger so he can have betty hate her father even more because he is doing this to ruin Ross's reputation in the film and I think it really works The film because he again he wants to have Ross snap And go bad. Also that monologue he gives combined with him yelling is really dark because he wants Red Hulk to let out all his anger and also sort of funny because it shows how crazy the leader is as a villain. It is all thanks to Tim Blake Nelson's entertaining and captivating performance. Now Despite me saying all these awesome things about The Leader like his monologue, his villain motivation and his origin and his character overall. There is a problem I do have with the leader and that is the design because it just looks weird he doesn't look like comic book Counterpart at all now turn the personality he does. But in turn the design doesn't look like a string bean he looks like Brainiac from DC. But really that's the only problem I have with the Leader; everything else works really well. I'm going to give The Leader a 7/10.

Here is My Villain Review of Red Hulk

 

Here is My Villain Review of Red Hulk

Now I'm going to discuss the character Red Hulk is the secondary villain in 2025´s Captain America Brave New World and explain why he had won the most tragic and sympathetic villains of phase 5 of the MCU as well as one of the best villains of 2025 so far. 

Origin- Now Red Hulk's origin is really interesting because there is a lot to this character because he has been through a lot in the MCU. Now Red Hulk's real name is Ross and he returned to America when he was 27 years old and he was a one time military General and he was tasked to find and capture the Hulk and weaponize him. But he failed to do that so Later on in his life he became the US Secretary of State and he assigned the Sokovia Accords to tear the Avengers apart from the inside And put them against each other. Later on he became the president of the United States and he tried to run the country but he was experimented on by Dr Samuel Stearns/The Leader So in order to avoid turning into the red Hulk he had to take gamma pills and control his emotions so he doesn't rage out. I think the film did the Glorious job of telling Red Hulk's origin of how he became a one-time War General to the present of the United States because Ross is a man that's been through a lot since he returned to america. 

Character- now Red Hulk as a character is really interesting because you understand what he wants to do. You know he is the guy that died taking nonsense from anybody he doesn't believe that Captain America can run the country and prove that Isaiah Bradley is innocent. But you also feel bad for him because Ross is also dealing with his personal trauma of his daughter Betty does not like him because of the way he's been training her by not spending enough time with her and doing all these horrible things. It wants to fix his relationship with her so  they can be back together again. I think the film does a terrific job of developing Red Hulk as a villain because he wants to run the country the way he wants to by not having any bad stuff happening to the country because he's going against the Japanese but he also wants to try to fix his relationship with his daughter and make it right. 

Motivation- Now Red Hulk´s motivations are really incredible because he want to run the country the way he wants to like have everything in balance but he only want to prove to his daughter Betty that he has changed So they can spend more time together and to show her that he's not as horrible as she thinks he is. I think the film does a gloria's job of giving Red Hulk a really powerful and tragic motivation because he believes he's doing good for his daughter he believes he's doing the right thing for the country but he's just going about it in a very harmful end despicable way because The Leader is manipulating him

Best Scenes- Now Red Hulk had a lot of really powerful and really tremendous moments in this film and to be honest it is really hard for me to pick which is my favorite moment with Red Hulk. But if I had to pick a couple moments with Red Hulk that I really like, it'll probably be the scene where Ross tells Sam Wilson. You better watch yourself, you're not Steve Rogers. Not only Was it a really incredible end entertaining scene but it makes sense because Ross does not believe that Sam Wilson is Captain America because he does believe that he can protect and serve the country. The scene where Ross turned into the Red Hulk is one of the darkest moments because he is letting out his anger by turning into a monster and trying to kill Captain America because The leader was manipulating him to do that. Also the scene where Ross says how the hell did he do all that from prison? If he can control mines certainly he can hack files. I ordered you to stop. Because I was Dying God damn it because my heart was failing. Not only was it really suspenseful and a very captivating moment but it made sense because Ross was dying from heart failure so that is why he needed those gamma pills and he had to control his emotions so he did not want to risk having a heart attack. All of these scenes are really tremendous and really entertaining. It's all thanks to Harrison Ford's awesome and entertaining performance.

Evil Deeds- Now Red Hulk does a lot of evil stuff in this movie he tries to kill Captain America he almost started World War III by having the Japanese go against the US. He didn't spend enough time with his daughter and he Almost killed everyone at the White House. But it wasn't really his fault, it wasn't his intention to go crazy. He was being manipulated by The Leader to do all those horrible things because he wanted Ross to let out all his anger. I think the film that they still do a job of making Red Hulk evil but also misunderstood because it is not his fault because again the leader was controlling him like a puppet so if anyone is the monster it is The Leader who is truly the monster in the film. 

Conclusion- Red Hulk is a really interesting villain Now he is the president of the United States and he has been battling heart failure his whole life. I think the film did a tremendous job of developing Red Hulk and a character Because not only did he have to deal with all the stuff that he's been through but he wants to try to fix his relationship with his daughter Betty and wants to spend more time with her. His motivations are really amazing how he wants to run the country and try to control his emotions and win back his daughter again. Also the scenes of Red Hulk giving that monologue of saying that he was dying and you're not Steve Rogers are really awesome and powerful scenes and the scene where he turns into Red Hulk is also a really dark and horrifying scene that works really well because he was being manipulated by The Leader. It is all thanks to Harrison Ford´s captivating and mesmerizing performance. I think Red Hulk is up there with Xu Wenwu from Shang Chi as one of the most sympathetic villains in the MCU. I think he's up there with The High Evolutionary from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 as one of my favorite villains in the MCU. I'm going to give Red Hulk a 9/10.
