It’s to MARVEL’S Bad & Also Great Hollywood Stunts
What role do stunt performers play in creating the breathtaking action sequences seen in Marvel films?
Stunt performers are the unsung heroes of the film industry, executing many of the breathtaking action sequences that audiences see on the big screen. Marvel films, known for their high-octane action and thrilling stunts, have garnered a lot of attention from fans and critics alike. However, not all stunts are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at how stunt performers have reacted to Marvel’s best and worst stunts.
Let’s start with the good. There have been many memorable stunts in Marvel films that have left audiences in awe. One such example is the car chase scene in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The scene features Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, chasing after a hijacked S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicle through the streets of Washington D.C. The scene is highly choreographed and features a mix of practical and digital effects. Stunt performer Jay Kim, who worked on the film, praised the scene for being “well-rehearsed” and “meticulously planned.” He also noted that the use of practical effects, such as the actual car crashes, added a level of authenticity to the scene.
Another standout stunt comes from the highly acclaimed Black Panther film. The scene in question is the casino fight between T’Challa, Okoye, and Nakia, and Ulysses Klaue and his henchmen. The fight features a single shot that seamlessly transitions between hand-to-hand combat, gunplay, and acrobatics. Stunt coordinator Jonathan Eusebio, who worked on the film, praised the scene for its “long takes” and “complicated choreography.” He also noted that the actors put in a lot of work to learn the fight choreography and execute the stunts.
Now let’s move on to the not-so-great stunts. One example comes from the film Thor: The Dark World. The scene in question is the final battle between Thor and Malekith in which the two characters engage in a gravity-defying fight. However, many fans and critics have criticized the scene for relying too heavily on CGI and for being difficult to follow. Stunt coordinator Damien Walters, who worked on the film, echoed these criticisms, stating that he wished there had been more practical stunts in the scene.
Another underwhelming stunt comes from Avengers: Age of Ultron. The scene in question is the Hulk vs. Iron Man fight. While the scene features some impressive visual effects, stunt performers have criticized it for being too heavily reliant on CGI and for lacking a sense of weight and impact. Stunt coordinator Greg Powell, who worked on the film, expressed disappointment with the scene, stating that he wished there had been more practical stunts and a greater sense of danger.
In conclusion, while Marvel films are known for their high-octane action and thrilling stunts, not all stunts are created equal. Some stand out for their meticulous planning and execution, while others are criticized for relying too heavily on CGI and lacking impact. Regardless of the quality of the stunts, however, one thing is clear: stunt performers are the unsung heroes who make these scenes possible.
