The Best and Worst Movie of the Year
(Respectively). First up....
Captain America: Civil War
The good thing about being resuscitated
today is Captain America and Bucky no longer have to hide their gay
relationship.
Mind you, this action/fantasy still plays
it as a brotherly bond.
When someone gains access to the Winter
Soldier’s (Sebastian Stan) trigger words, they order him to attack a UN
conference on the registration of enhanced humans.
Now Cap (Chris Evans) and some like-minded
Avengers (Elizabeth Olsen, Anthony Mackie, Jeremy Renner) are opposing Iron Man
(Robert Downey, Jr.) and the rest (Scarlett Johansson, Paul Bettany, Don
Cheadle) in order to protect Bucky, and their right to fight ungoverned.
While it’s the third entry in the Cap
franchise, Civil War feels like a mini Avengers movie considering the number of
cameos in it. Fortunately, Cap remains at the forefront of this multifaceted
and masterfully crafted chapter.
However, unlike America’s other Civil War
this version has a serious lack of Mutton Chops.
Suicide Squad
When assembling a team of suicidal soldiers
always ensure they wear parachutes when free falling into a mission.
Oddly, the miserable crew in this action
movie is more inclined to kill others.
When an ancient evil (Cara Delevingne)
transforms the inhabitants of Midway City into ferocious monstrosities,
military high-up Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) orders the formation of an elite
taskforce of super criminals.
Under the authority of Rick Flag (Joel
Kinnaman), and the control of explosive body-implants, marksman Deadshot (Will
Smith), psychopath Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) and others (Jai Courtney, Jay
Hernandez, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) are dispatched to defeat the threat.
A hodgepodge of hokey fantasy, low-rent
super-powers and innumerable shootouts, DC’s film adaptation of its obscure
comic book is yet another misfire from the company’s second-rate canon. And
while Robbie does embody Harley, her performance is reduced to eye-candy.
Ironically, most soldiers who do see
military action end up suicidal.
He's a Happy Hourglass. He's the...
