HAWKEYE - The Series
Tumblr media
Before I proceed with my thoughts on Hawkeye, I would like to say that I feel so emotional and touched by the fact that after Tony Strak's death Marvel has mentioned Tony in some way and form in all its movies and series showing that even though Tony is no more but still an integral part of this Superhero journey. He founded it and he is needed for its future. β™₯️πŸ₯ΊπŸ‘‰πŸ»πŸ‘ˆπŸ»
So I have finally watched the Hawkeye series and I must say it was fabulous and a much needed story telling for Clint Barton.
The Character of Clint Barton was first introduced in Thor however it was glimpse and nothing more as we progressed and Avengers happened we saw Clint as an manipulated soldier and it did not help much in building Clint as a character and Hawkeye. Clint was an oddball Avengers. Some of his actions and reactions, personally, just felt out of the place and 'Why?'. Even though in 'Age of Ultron' we do get a look in Clint's life but that wasn't enough for the character's development. Nor are we able to understand him any better. Later Hawkeye became Ronin and that's just it. Basically Clint's character as Clint Barton, Hawkeye and Ronin was never built up in the MCU and hence the none comic fans found him not appealing and couldn't be appreciated like other Avengers. Even though it was sort of similar for Black Widow however Natasha was given more expressions and flashbacks to complete her character.
So Hawkeye series filled that void and connected Hawkeye to us. While watching the series I realised that Hawkeye is the most humane superhero. No superpower, No suit with high end techs, No extra powers but just a humane who has been trained real well. Not only this but Clint is the only Avenger with a family and children. Clint was more us than a superhero and we could honestly understand now after that perspective has been bestowed upon us.
I understand the purpose of these series is to set up the Young Avengers but for me, Hawkeye was more about Clint Barton and his life than Kate Bishop.
Anyway coming to the plot, I love Marvel for doing this irritated grown ass, doing it for long Avengers with Young, extremely excited Avenger πŸ˜‚
Be it Peter Parker or Kate Bishop, "Oh are we going to Avengers compound", "Are we talking about Avenger level threat", "We need more weapons" and the actual Avengers just going "NO KID WE NEED MORE BAND AIDS AND ALCOHOL RUBS" πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I love that entire irritation and annoyance.
I loved the Character of 'Maya' and the whole inclusion of ASL. I loved it, I enjoyed it thoroughly and I'm honestly looking forward to more of 'Maya' in MCU.
Clearly Yelena and Kate are the future of Nat & Clint friendship. I loved their relation and chemistry and the bond that is slowly forming. Also the entire dialogue exchange and fight sequence in Ep6 has me. looking forward to them together in future MCU movies. I also liked the whole exchange between Yelena and Clint, giving Yelena a much needed closer.
The Tracksuit mafia and that particular scene of them turning small, thanks to PYM, and an actual Hawk flying away with them in its grip πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Also the Hawkeye meeting the Hawk. a very nice comical touch, I must say. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
we also get to know that Clint's wife was actually a S.H.I.E.L.D agent and I was like 'Wohoooo'.
All in all it was great series with a much needed character built up for Clint Barton. Kate Bishop's character has been developed pretty well as well as her relation with Yelena. All the Action sequence were very well executed and had you with it. Jack and LARPers were great addition to the cast. (oh by the way, I knew who the actual murderer was :) not a big twist)
A must mention is the Roger Musical, I thoroughly enjoyed the song and dance but Ant-man wasn't there :)
I enjoyed Hawkeye πŸ¦‰πŸ‘€
