Waste of Cast and Budget
In London, the agent of the Ministry John Steed (Ralph Fiennes) and Dr. Emma Peel (Uma Thurman) are summoned by the Mother (Jim Broadbent), who shows a footage where the Prospero Project that controls the weather is damaged by Dr. Peel. They head to meet Sir August de Wynter (Sean Connery), who is a weather specialist, but soon they discover that he wants to rule the world, using his machine that controls the weather.

I saw “The Avengers” in the 90’s and did not like this movie. Today I have just seen it again on DVD and I found again a silly and boring movie that wastes cast and budget. It is hard to believe that Sean Connery accepted to work in this turkey. My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): “Os Vingadores” (“The Avengers”)

From left-field
Well I don’t know how this one slipped through the studio system but I’m very glad it did. When I heard about an Avengers movie I assumed we’d be getting a bastardised Hollywood formula movie, and it would resemble some of the recent Bond films more than the original series. But I was thrilled to find the film had the same wonderful sense of absurdity as the show. 🙂

I think a lot of people are unaware this is a complete comedy. This being the case it’s not surprising people think it’s bad, but that’s their problem. The comedy style is not a popular one, it’s a particular style of generally British humour, best described as complete and utter nonsense. If you have no appreciation for absurdity, then you will NOT like this film.

Nothing in The Avengers should be taken at face value, it’s all a load of s***. Steed and Peel are full of s***, that’s the point. No one acts the way they do, they are both constantly trying to out cocky each other. The world of The Avengers is a place where “small things are taken with the utmost seriousness and important things are not taken seriously at all”.

The Avengers purposely doesn’t explain things, it’s not supposed to make sense, that would ruin it. It’s the little things in The Avengers that make it shine. Small asides from left-field that seem to go over most peoples heads.

Fiennes and Thurman are different than Macnee and Rigg, but I’m not sure they’re much worse. Fiennes could perhaps have been a bit more cheerful. Thurmans whole screen presence is so vastly different from Riggs that it’s impossible to compare, but I did enjoy Thurmans version of the infalable Peel. Connery going nuts was fun to see too. BTW Eddie Izzard not talking was the point of him being there, get it. Having Eddie Izzard in your movie and not having him say anything is to my mind very funny.

It’s very hard to explain to people who flock to films like The Waterboy, why a film like The Avengers is so funny. Most people I guess will just never get it. I got it, and I’m glad that there ARE plenty of other people who did too. Congrats to the makers for daring to be different and convincing the studio into letting you spend $70 million.

8/10
