Good storytelling involves the use of trops, and one trope I always admire in action movies is that you can always tell when a plan will work. Plans fail when you discuss the characters beforehand, but it comes when you are in this scene.
The best part of the third episode of “Power Broker.” Falcon and Winter Soldier, While those tropes are deliciously scarred. Bucky describes Sam as “guessing” how he can break Zimo out of his maximum security prison just before Zemo exits the door. It’s too bad the prison breakout plot I saw is so boring –Avatar: The Last AirbenderThe ‘Boulder’ episode was more interesting. But after that, I guess that’s not what this episode is about.
What Is About this episode, right? On his face, “Power Broker” is about collecting Intel on super soldier serum and flag-smashers and expanding the universe of Sam and Baki’s allies. But he seems most interested in playing in an action movie, and you know what? It fails. Throughout the episode, I was just thinking at the time that I had seen better versions of these scenes.
The club scene makes me think better In the casino scene Black Panther. Heck, those scenes in it too Tenet Where the protagonist pretends to be someone else, there is a better management of a certain balance of strangeness and mystery. Maybe it’s a strange direction, where it’s hard to tell where people are in a scene at any given time. Or maybe it’s the editing – the way the snake cocktail scene was cut together made me feel like they were trying to get laughter from the audience, but the joke became less for me. Maybe because I like snakes, or maybe because a snake gut cocktail doesn’t even look cool, just chubby? Now, if they were used Poison, It would be funny hard-core. What will really weaken the whole enterprise is the fact that we have received very little reference or humor for Sam’s character, or else exactly how Zemo is connected to Madridpur. After his release from prison, he is as prosperous as he was in Sokovia.
G / O media can get commission
Zemo always felt like he was introduced as a cipher, a blessing Captain America: Civil War, But beyond that, its characteristic made me feel somewhat rotten and bored. (Like Zemo? Zero, am I right?) It’s not necessarily Daniel Brahl’s fault, but I have to say that my image in MCU has always been my own. Chic bastards. He played the Nazi hero crying a little, which I think speaks to his acting skills. But I think I also have to give credit to Quentin Tarantino for directing Bruhl in those scenes, as I feel he has been given too little for his character in this episode.
The most interesting scenes of Zemo are also in the beginning, as to how he alternately arranges with Sam and Bucky. Someone against whom the Avengers were fond of using their own mistakes to break, you will see small pieces of that emotional intelligence pop out in this episode. Bucky looks at him in fear, though he seems to be drawn to Zemo’s power over him. (Wow, he really is an MCU character who needs a lot of treatment.) Meanwhile, Bucky and Sam Bicker win over Zemo Sam over how he’s grabbing Steve’s notebook when he says “trouble man” says more about the soundtrack. Is the African American experience. Surprised Sam says, “It’s out of line, but it’s true.” Once again, I am connected to Sam and his thought process. how Courage Bucky says he “just liked the music of the ’40s.” Open yourself up, man! I think he’s a lot different from Steve – he can go on dates (and dating apps obviously. “Both men and women”) But he can’t enjoy modern day music? Come on, man. Also, I’m sure we can all agree (and please pay attention in the comments) that when your favorite media shares with someone, you have “I like it.” Need to offer a lot more than that. My friends, Sam bears with us.
But okay, do Zemo have black friends? He also denied Sam’s frustration with his outfit, saying, “Only Americans would think that a decorated black man would look like a pimp.” I… What? Zemo listens Solanj? Unfortunately, that aspect of his personality comes down the road [sigh] They try to deal with British woman Selby who has the necessary Intel. Sorry, this scene just read to me as “James Bond references without intrusion and humor”. Even the re-introduction of Sharon to our characters after Selby’s murder seems like a failure in writing. In fact, this is a bit of a weird feature throughout the episode.
I think that’s the biggest problem with “power brokers”. Even a few moments like booing a cafe owner in Germany like “Wake up, you know who I am?” While Carly has killed many people with car bombs with a blast attitude, she feels in perfect harmony with last week’s episode.
In the end, the worst part of the episode is how it leaves out the excellent part of the show. Sam and Bucky rarely talk to each other or check their plans. Sam often asks Bucky if he’s okay, but Bucky doesn’t even know how to answer. And when Bucky asks him, Sam tells him he’s impressed by the people caught in the crossfire – especially Sharon and Isaiah. And when he reverses his decision to leave, he feels that he must have destroyed it.
Stray observation
- I’m sure, thanks to Sam’s call with Sarah, that this and the previous two episodes all passed the Blackdale test, the black version of the Bechdale test. (They also just “Duvernay test. ”)
- The scene at the club is also disappointing. They quit acting the next day as hard as they could, but Sam and Bucky inadvertently ran around! Zemo dances a bit, but I don’t see why they could get out and MCU. Give us the equivalent of. The scene From Parks and recreation.
- I remembered the scene with Nagel The scene From The from from UNCLE, Except, of course, the latter was better. Nagel seemed to be doing the channel From Lex Luther of Jesse Eisenberg Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
- I loved Sharon’s fight scenes – his best use of throwing a knife at a gun fight shows Steve. Bucky was also in great form when he returned as a winter soldier.
- I expect half of Jimo to leave them. I really expected that he would keep Sam with that snake cocktail, or he would poison the food that he kindly gives to Sam and Bucky. Who is this person
- When he lives in his sleek apartment with Sharon (I believe?), Bucky says, “She’s kind of awful now,” she lies to herself because she knows she’ll never be so cold in her life Will not live. For another 100 years.
- Does Sam’s awkward phone call even flutter as a joke device? Suspense? I was trying to figure out why he brought his phone at all, why he couldn’t put it on airplane mode.
- I wonder if Sharon kills Selby. I don’t think it works for a power broker, but I’m pleased with where its loyalty resides.
