Review of Black Widow (2021) by Tisms — 09 Jul 2021
This movie was shaping up to be fairly decent, if not a little bland. Scarlett is as good as ever, but the whole family dynamic is kinda stupid and the red guardian is played as an absolute joke despite being an extremely powerful super soldier. I would have otherwise given this movie a solid 6, but there is one more glaring issue. This movie absolutely annihilated taskmaster. It is so astonishing how badly they **** him up. This take on the character was worse than Deadpool in x-men origins AND the mandarin in Iron man 3 put together. I cannot overstate how upsettingly terrible "He" was. I actually feel bad for the person who played "Him" because they did their best with an absolutely abysmal character. What an absolute soccer kick to the face.
I'm giving this movie a 1 purely because I've always liked Black Widow in the MCU, and I feel bad that this is movie is her legacy. If you were excited for taskmaster, steer clear from this movie, the fan theories were significantly better.
