【尚氣不負眾望】
老實說,之前睇《尚氣與十環傳奇》trailer,期望不高,甚至覺得似石堅粵語殘片格局,不過,近月在英美傳媒試片和首映後,口碑出奇地好,影評一致讚好,睇完後,確定本片的確屬於Marvel超級英雄solo片中最成功之一,總結成功如下:
1)完全適合西方口味喜歡的東方元素,即是香港電影以前未押注大陸市場(如今在偉大的黨整頓下已經無得玩了,押錯注了)之前最擅長的,今天荷里活都學懂了。還記得2013年《Iron Man 3》都有范冰冰出過幾個鏡頭吧?當年荷里活想吸引中國市場,如今有得上畫已經偷笑,荷里活片更不要預大陸演員了,無謂害他們被清算啦。但畢竟世界潮流和市場已更接受多元種族和文化元素,題外話,Marvel只會越玩越闊,例如下套十一月上畫的《Eternals》將會有英國華裔Gemma Chan(陳靜)擔正,加上韓國馬東石(Don Lee),印度超級英雄大跳Bollywood舞蹈,另外還有同性戀超級英雄,而在其他未來作品更會有穆斯林少女超級英雄等等....
2)以動作場面而言,除了片頭已見,在電影初段的男主角巴士大戰比較屬於硬橋硬馬(令人想起 Keanu Reeves和Sandra Bullock的《Speed》),和末段一場以電腦特技CGI為主外,最令人印象深刻的,是梁朝偉/陳法拉(其實是兩人的love dance)和楊紫瓊/劉思慕的對打,雖然仍難與李安當年《臥虎藏龍》相比,但肯定喚起觀眾對那些經典武打場面的回憶。
3)《尚氣》大量中文對白,更添加真實感,也是Marvel電影甚至荷里活都少見,反映(可能在Netflix大量供應外語劇集包括韓劇下)美國市場觀眾真的開始習慣接受睇字幕了,不過可惜本片中文對白頗為生硬,有時看英文字幕反覺比較自然,如果編劇中能有懂中文的,執一執,會好些吧。
4)梁朝偉的演出,肯定最搶眼,而這個超級壞蛋的角色,是Marvel電影中少有地有層次感,是好是壞,結果是個「情癡」的悲劇反派角色,頗有經典武俠小說式東邪西毒的宿命感,由角色設定至他的演出,都能納入為Marvel最佳反派之一。
5)雖然有華人批評劉思慕不起眼(不過他有習武背景),Awkwafina更加唔靚,不過,他們角色本就是想做個普通人吧,並且兩人的幕前chemistry甚佳,Awkwafina為電影帶來的comic relief,也是Marvel電影鮮有的新元素。太靚仔,也未必好,就看不久前《Snake Eyes》的Harry Golding,夠形啦?結果,仆直。
6)近年Marvel電影喜歡找些新進年輕導演,並且不少是少數族裔或女性,本片導演Destin Daniel Cretton,是來自美國最多元種族的夏威夷州的日歐裔混血,雖不是華人,亦從未拍過以亞裔演員或主題的電影,但他在處理亞裔文化上,顯然比一般荷里活來得適當、尊重。Cretton上部電影2019年的《Just Mercy》,描述美國法律對黑人歧視的一段真實歷史,非常值得推薦(在Now的HBO Go或其他網上平台都有)。
不過,如果要指出一些不足之處,本片與不少超級英雄電影有一樣「通病」,開頭龍咁威,中段稍慢,到埋尾高潮要「谷」返起來不易,始終有點「未夠喉」。
而以《尚氣》這麼多的「破格」之處,最合適和接近可作比較的,應該是Marvel最經典的solo超級英雄電影《黑豹》。《尚氣》全華人(只有Razor Fist和「甘地」影帝Ben Kingsley飾演、曾經在《Iron Man 3》登場的假滿大人兩個配角不是華人),《黑豹》則全黑人,只有一個配角是白人;《黑豹》的Wakanda和《尚氣》的「大羅」(Ta Lo),都是與世隔絕、神秘而擅戰的國度,設定相似地方甚多。
然而,真的要比較的話,都是《黑豹》稍勝。《黑豹》中關於黑人的種族及社會訊息隱喻甚多,《尚氣》完全沒碰;如果要比較男主角,《尚氣》劉思慕當然遠不及《黑豹》已故的Chadwick Boseman,除了演技,甚至由他自創的獨特Wakanda口音至"Wakanda forever"口號,都是經典。至於反派方面,兩片的梁朝偉和Michael B. Jordan都有「因愛成恨」的複雜背景,兩人演出都有深度,接近平手吧。
導演大概都是Eagles迷吧,留低片尾聽Hotel California和睇彩蛋吧!最後,陳法拉好靚,相信不少觀眾包括老外都想她的角色可以「返生」。十二月的下集蜘蛛俠與Dr Strange將開始大玩平行時空multiverse,有什麼不可能?

- It's not often a team misses three alley-oops in one quarter and still wins by 26 points. It's even rarer for the Washington Wizards to start 0-5.
That hasn't happened since they were the Baltimore Bullets.
The Denver Nuggets treated the Verizon Center as their own personal playground Friday night, breaking a three-game losing streak with a 118-92 victory that provided comic relief for the winners and showers of boos for the losers.
"We scored 118; we threw away 20," Denver coach George Karl said. "We play a style where I know we're going to have mistakes, but sometimes we make the mistakes and don't make the defense make the plays. It will be interesting the film we'll put together -- maybe we'll put it to Abbott and Costello."
Carmelo Anthony scored 32 points, including 12 consecutive Denver points in the third quarter. Marcus Camby added 13 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists for the Nuggets, who shot 51 percent and rebounded from a 119-93 pounding Wednesday night at Boston.
"We lost three straight -- and this was the game we really needed," Anthony said. "We needed to get our confidence back, get our swagger back."
The Wizards fell to 0-5 for the first time since 1966, when their home was up the road in Baltimore. The third quarter has to rank among the most embarrassing 12 minutes of basketball since the team moved to the nation's capital: Coach Eddie Jordan, who pronounced his team's mind-set as "fine" before the game, watched his team miss 7 of 10 shots, commit 12 turnovers and get outscored 33-11 in the quarter.
"We just weren't disciplined. We didn't stay organized. We didn't rebound. We didn't share the ball. We didn't execute," Jordan said. "It's one of the most disappointing games I've been involved in."
Gilbert Arenas, still laboring on a surgically repaired left knee that was drained for a second time on Wednesday, finished with 18 points on 5-for-13 shooting. He made 2 of 8 3-pointers and is 5-for-32 from 3-point range on the season. He remained in the trainer's room long after the game and was not available for comment, needing treatment after playing 42 minutes on Thursday in New Jersey and 37 minutes on Friday.
"Back-to-back's going to be difficult for him right now," Jordan said.
Caron Butler scored 14 of his 21 points in the first quarter for the Wizards, while Antawn Jamison (6-for-17) and DeShawn Stevenson (0-for-6) continued to struggle from the field. Washington shot 38 percent, only a slight improvement over their NBA-worst 36.4 percent entering the game.
"We need to get our act in order, and we have to find a way to get a win, period," Jamison said. "Not only get a win, but find a way to get this thing rolling because it's not rolling at all. You can see it. When you're out there, you're experiencing it."
The Nuggets had won their first two and lost their next three, but they were in the mood to have fun Friday. They attempted six alley-oops, missing all three in the second quarter but making three others, including a poetry-in-motion twisting reverse slam by J.R. Smith on a feed from Allen Iverson in the fourth quarter.
Smith finished with 16 points and Iverson had 15 points and eight assists, but Anthony had the best run. The Baltimore native's 12 straight points in the third quarter all came on jump shots, including a pair of 3-pointers, as part of a 14-4 spurt that gave the Nuggets an 80-58 lead. Anthony went 3-for-13 against the Celtics, but he was 14-for-24 Friday night.
"'Melo led us tonight. He caught fire," Iverson said. "We just rode his coattails all the way in."
