The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one of the most popular contemporary superhero movie series. Today, films of this company are most popular with the viewer, and her work is in the tops of the most profitable films that go on sale worldwide. Currently, thirteen feature films have been filmed, united by common storylines.
general characteristics
The cinematic universe of Marvel is based on comics, which are no less popular than their adaptations. The series appeared in the 1930s and immediately found its readers. One of the first main characters is Captain America, which became a real hit among fans. However, in the postwar years, interest in superheroes fell, and only in the 1960s, the creators again returned to this idea. Then the famous fantastic four was created, which cemented success. Their popularity was so high that cartoons and films based on comic book plots soon began to appear.
Features
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is different in that all its parts are somehow connected to each other. To attract viewers, scriptwriters create teams of heroes, clash their interests, develop and change them. This can be seen in the latest movie, Captain America: Civil War, in which the characters split into two opposing camps, which led to their conflict. Another characteristic feature of the company is the use of the theme of confrontation between superheroes and civil authorities. In addition, the authors of the script pay great attention to the psychological treatment of the characters, describing their internal psychological conflict. The most famous example is a spider-man who is torn between his superhero existence and attempts to live a normal human life.
The Iron Man Trilogy
From 2008 to 2013, the Marvel Cinematic Universe released several films about Tony Stark performed by R. Downey Jr., a man in all respects original and outstanding. He created an unusual costume that allowed him to perform the most incredible stunts.
In the best traditions, the authors did not ignore the psychology of their hero, who for some time experienced an internal conflict due to the fact that his superhero costume, which he valued and was so proud of, not only saved his life, but also killed his body. The franchise about the iron man is the most successful of the series of the company, in many respects thanks to the leading actor, who, thanks to charisma, made his hero famous throughout the world.
Captain America
Films of the cinematic universe of Marvel currently occupy a leading position among modern youth, as they combine elements of action, action, psychological drama and adventure genre. One of the most popular films in this style is the story of Captain America (played by K. Evans), a fighter who went through a special procedure for introducing serum, which gave him extraordinary physical abilities. With their help, he decides to neutralize the dangerous Nazi, who seeks world domination. The film is not as popular as the iron man trilogy, nevertheless it occupies a prominent place in the series of films about superheroes.
The Avengers
The list of films from the Marvel cinematic universe should be replenished with a picture about a team of protagonists who united to fight the main villain Loki (T. Hiddleston). The peculiarity of this picture is that it is not based on any comic strip, however, the creators relied on their individual storylines, which formed the basis of the story. The reviews as a whole turned out to be positive: according to critics, the creators managed to make a new story out of familiar elements. According to user reviews, success was achieved due to the original characters and the development of their relationship, although the plot, in principle, has long been familiar to everyone. This picture is one of the most successful among the works of the studio.
Continuation
A complete list of films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe includes thirteen films. In this work, only the most famous paintings of the company are indicated. "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" continues the previous movie. This time, the creators again resorted to the already tried and proven method: they united several heroes in one team who were faced with a new supervillain - the Winter Soldier (S. Stan).
In addition, they have to uncover an internal conspiracy in an organization that is engaged in the fight against crime. The cinema received very positive reviews: critics note that the creators revived the best traditions of the old school of fighters, so the picture began to sparkle with new colors. Users indicate that the characters turned out to be more interesting than in previous studio films.
Last premiere
The Marvel Universe, films whose actors have become widely known, endows their offspring with an interesting intriguing plot, excellent soundtracks and a wonderful game of talented performers.
In May of this year, the film “Confrontation” was released, which brought together all the famous heroes and their star performers. The movie turned out to be very dramatic, largely due to the fact that the scriptwriters took a very successful move: they pushed their former friends into battle. As it turned out, this move is still interesting to the viewer. The characters were spelled out very well, the motive for their conflict was also very convincing. The action scenes also turned out to be very spectacular. Many liked the presence on the screen of all the actors they loved at once (except for the above, S. Johansson, who played the role of the black widow, and T'Challa in the image of the black panther should be noted here). However, the real event was the appearance in the picture of Spider-Man performed by the talented young actor T. Holland. Many viewers liked the interpretation of their favorite character, and now fans of the movie universe are looking forward to a solo film about this hero.
Upcoming Premieres
The cinematic universe of Marvel, whose chronology currently includes three phases, continues to delight fans with new projects. Among the most anticipated films in the near future is a film about Dr. Strange. This movie is fundamentally different from previous studio works in that for the first time the script is completely built on a mystical storyline. The story tells how a talented surgeon performed by a popular British actor (B. Camrerbatch) suffered a terrible injury due to an accident that prevented him from continuing his work. Then he began, according to comics, to undergo training with the magician, after which he acquired some abilities that allowed him to become a number of superheroes.
Projects for the future
The cinematic universe of Marvel, the 4th phase of which will be created after the release of the dilogy “Avenger: War of Infinity”, judging by the statements of its creators, most likely is evolving. Fans should expect new heroes to replace old ones. Producers and directors promise new stories and new interesting plot twists. It is also planned to attract new actors to the projects, which will replace the old ones. In a word, the studio does not intend to stop there, but plans to expand its universe.
Place in the film industry
All users and critics are unanimous that the Marvel Universe wins compared to the DiCi series of films and comics, the authors of which created Superman and Batman. The reason is that the writers of the first studio create more thoughtful stories, more logical plots, and also introduce humor into their stories, while their main competitor uses gloomy and serious stories to entertain their fans.
Marvel movies these days are the undisputed leader in the entertainment industry. Each time, screenwriters manage to present stories that are already familiar to the viewer in a new form and otherwise reveal the characters and the relationship between them. Despite the complexity of the storylines and the many ups and downs associated with the adventures of the heroes, the creators manage to maintain a logical unity and consistency in the history of superheroes. An indicator of the popularity of the studio’s projects is that many of its characters have successfully switched to series, where new projects are created based on their storylines that expand the universe.
