And that's absolutely true. So, we've got a fellow who has gone out of his way to kind of mention how his dad was always a dick. We've got a fellow who hasn't taken the time to drop more than a token reference about his deceased mother. He's gone on at length about his fear of the larger universe, about the value of trying to exceed your expectations (and grasp), and the role of power and force in societal control.
So...why the fuck does "I. Don't. Care." happen? At all? So you're totally cool with Barton killing folks while under mind control. But boy, same shoe on another foot and you have the kind of lost child meltdown that makes Bruce Wayne look like a rookie at this parent murder angst shit. It's a swerve for the sake of being swervy. It doesn't tie into virtually anything the character has showcased so far, it doesn't fall within the reactions the character has shown so far, and it plays off as if you want to set up Stark as a future villain. That whole last sequence makes less and less sense each time I look at it. Most of my other complaints are really minor nitpicks that spawn from my dissatisfaction with this one aspect of the film. It's a baffling gaff in what has mostly been internally consistent vision from the Russo pair.Statistics: Posted by El Jefe — Fri Jun 03, 2016 7:36 pm
