Correction without the Rat!!! Endgame wouldn't have happened. Sigh such a lame plot point, just have Scott figure out a way back from the Quantum realm geez
@@roxanne_ In a way he truly did care and thought of Natasha and Yelena as his daughters and like most fathers thought he was doing what was best for them
Am I the only one who thought there was totally something up with the way they depicted Ross in this one? Natasha mentions he looks like he had a SECOND triple bypass, and he said he had one in Civil War. It seems like they are emphasizing his failing health perhaps to foreshadow that as a desperate act of self preservation he shoots himself with Hulk blood and becomes Red Hulk. Especially because why would they spend the money on CGI making him look frail if it wasn't important.
Anyone else disappointed that we didn't get a better look at Natasha's training in the Red room nor any of the other Widow's? I was hoping for more after getting a glimpse in AOU
@@djunknownn. I didn't say I wanted it to be a prequel. I just wanted a part of the movie to give us a look into Natasha's training. It always interested me.
Loved this movie SO much. But I have to admit, I’m I a little disappointed there weren’t many Red Room flashbacks like showing more of what Natasha’s life was like there. I was really excited to see that.
I feel like if this movie was actually released after civil war before infinity war, it would be more appreciated because we would have gotten the black widow movie we all wanted and it would have shown some of the after math of the break up of the avengers. I think its because we have all moved on from that point in time onto the newer avengers and post-Thanos. Overall a great movie though.
Just a note: the black widow training is extremely close to the training we earlier saw in “Agent Carter”. They both even include a scene which shows the widows learning English from an animated film!
That callback to Avengers Loki talking about Dracov's daughter is actually insane to think about. 7 years and they still have the detail of that in..... wow.
It's crazy once you realize how far in advance they plan these stories, a little detail one would deem minor is actually a major one later down the line.
Florence Pugh was definitely the biggest highlight for me in Black Widow. I’m looking forward to seeing more of Yelena in upcoming projects in the MCU.
As a Budapest local the car chace scene was "interesting" to watch. Knowing those streets by heart I was smiling how they were teleporting from one street to another.
Now i really want to go check that road 😄. Think i also remember seeing the apartement from quite some movies. Is that the same apartement in the movie atomic blonde and korean drama series IRIS?
I feel like the movie also has some subtext on human trafficking and gender based violence. It reminded me of movies like "Enough" and "Sleeping With the Enemy" that dealt with women in abusive relationships and how they overcame them.
@@melissaharris3389 Yes, subtext. It definitely wasn't the main plot point of the movie or anything. Y'know, abducting young girls and indoctrinating/brainwashing them into becoming mere tools (weapons) that are "faceless and disposible." DEFINITELY wasn't the main plot point. At all. /facepalm
One thing I noticed is the prisoner Red Guardian was arm wrestling with (the one who called him out on his BS) was named Ursa, possibly a reference to Ursa Major, who was on the winter guard along with Red Guardian
For years there’s been a head cannon that Clint likes to hang out in air vents, which is super popular in fan fictions about him. This just got canonized in the mcu!
I was thinking the same thing coz the world knew there is a Captain America but probably wasn't advertised as Steve Rogers being captain so Alexie might have had him confused
@@kidnamedgrass Isaiah also had a shield in the comics but there is no way to say whether he had one during his run in MCU with how little we know about him
I just wish we would get to see what happened in Budapest instead of Nat explaining what happened, especially given how Nat and Clint have mentioned it a few times.
“Not every stone needs to be turned” is the theme of a lot of past events in movies. The mystery keeps you thinking and wondering. It was never going to be shown.
The man's wrist that Red Guardian broke was called Ursa, a nod to Ursa Major, the mutant who can change into a bear and was a member of Winter Guard who Red Guardian was the leader of
@@stellarremnant3597 I was gonna point that out too, apparently marvel let him know that he is in fact Ursa Major. Gets me excited to see more mutants in the MCU
I think you missed this detail: When alexei breaks that prisoners arm, the prisoners name is ursa as in Ursa Major, and then while alexei walks away he calls him big bear.
It wasn’t the most epic MCU film in terms of pushing the story forward but it was a good re-entry back into the MCU. It felt more like a legacy film for Scarlett Johansson as Natasha which was great 🔥
Was great for a down to earth standalone story for Black Widow. Wasn't expecting an epic spectacle like endgame. Though the skydiving scene at the end was pretty epic. Love to see Deadpool and John Bernthal's Punisher on Thunderbolts
Agreed, also a great introduction story for Yelena. I’m super happy and impressed with Yelena’s role in this film and the way she’s been set up for the MCU’s future.
The viles looked like the Pim Particles to me. I was surprised they went with Red of all colours. It does also look like the Red Magic that Scarlett Witch used. Plus we never found out WHO made the antidote?
Now, both David Harbour (Red Guardian) and the director, Cate Shorthand, said Alexei was telling the truth in some form - he did fight Captain America. I have a few ideas about that: 1. Alexei fought Isaiah Bradley 2. Alexei fought Time-Displaced Captain America. Cap did return to his past, so there is now a timeline where he went through the conflicts past WW2 (and somehow managed to get into his original timeline).
@@RonaldEvenwood no I don’t think it’s another captain America because alexei asked Natasha if Steve Rogers ever mentioned the red guardian. Why would alexei ask Natasha about that if he wasn’t referring to Steve.
@@IScreamedWolf i honestly think you're right. He could believe that the super soldier he fought was the captain America and it was really Isiah Bradley who was just their tool, and hidden away when he was no longer needed. Wow crazy concept my friend I would so get behind
@@BD-zs5zd Isaiah Bradley specifically would have been in prison by then but it’s possible there were more super soldier experiments going on around then
Personal theories: Natashia’s contact works for Tony Stark and he supplied the Quinjet OR Natashia’s contact purchased it from the Vulture’s group after the Tinkerer fixed it up
I really think that Tony Masters will be introduced to the MCU as Taskmaster. He somehow gets that armor. I think that Taskmaster has so much potential that has yet to be used.
@@jasonsandhu3760 Yeah, but I understand them completely. They had difficulties to make this movie both good and fit the timeline and everything, it’s hard to make a filler moviez
@@aminesbai926 yeah it was good and told a lot about black widow but I don’t think people would call this one of Marvels better movies. It’s just combined in middle, wouldn’t call it a bad movie
When Alexi is talking to Natasha and Yelena after they broke him out of prison, he says their ledgers must be dripping and gushing with red. That is the exact line that Loki says in the first avengers movie
When Yelena mentioned the husband who renovates houses, I actually thought of Nat and Clint - as Clint's actor, Jeremy Renner has a business renovating and flipping houses. Also, regarding Alexiei, it might have been entirely possible for him to have fought Steve, seeing as the latter would go back in time in Endgame, to live his life out with Peggy.
In The Avengers, when Loki said Dreykov's daughter, I thought he was calling Natasha Dreykov's daughter. And when in Endgame when Red skull addressed Natasha as daughter of Ivan i thought it was plot hole. Black Widow cleared it up for me.
Actually "thank you for your cooperation" took me back to the scene when Natasha were questioning the target being bound to the chair on some construction site.
Just another reference: The Drakov flashback is a reference to a scene in Spielberg’s Munich, where spies have planted a bomb in someone’s office however they decide to NOT detonate the bomb after the targets daughter returns from a privately driven car. The blocking and cinematography being reminiscent of that scene
2016 is the biggest year in the MCU: Civil War, Doctor Strange, Homecoming, Black Widow and Black Panther. Biggest as in most movies for chronological order.
Why is no one talking about how the prisoner that Red Guardian broke the arm of is Ursa Major!? Powers realised or not he is the Bear Mutant! Mutants are official MCU canon guys! (not including Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver ofc)
I wish the Taskmaster reveal was more surprising. The movie was like, "Bad guy's daughter was killed by hero a long time ago and is now Taskmaster" That's what it felt like anyways
I honestly really liked this movie. The opening credits were haunting and the rest of the movie I had a big smile on my face watching Yelena and Natasha and everyone interact and fight. So glad Marvel is back at the movies!!
An easter egg: what the red guardian has been trying to tell to the inmates is that the captain america he fought in the 80's is the Black Captain America.
I figured that Alexei was talking about Isaiah Bradley. Or perhaps another secret Captain America that the government had tried out. I dont think we ever hear him say "Steve Rogers" tbf.
It can't be Isaiah because he was only active as a supersoldier in the 50's. After that he spent 30 years in prison and after he escaped he spent the rest of his life in hiding.
Rogers is the first Captain America... nobody wore the suite or went by title until we saw Falcon inherit it... Isiah was not given any respectable title or even acknowledged... he was a super soldier that was made to do America's bidding in a racist era without the ppl ever knowing about him..
I want to consider that they never specifically named Antonia as Taskmaster in any dialogue, therefore I think someone will adapt the taskmaster mantle.
A really cheap way to come back with a better Taskmaster if you introduce the absolute worst possible interpretation first. Even putting a clown nose on the Black Widow interpretation would be a significant improvement.
Another thing is we saw that when they got separated and anesthetized in Cuba , Yelena and Natasha were laying down as same way as when they got collected by the Red Room force in their jets.
Another interesting thing i noticed. While working for the red room, melina and yelena both keep their hairs braided which means that they are not completely under their free will. But at last when they fight with natasha against dreykoy they fight with free hair meaning that they are now under the control of their life and not an object of somebody.
In the end of the main battle Nat says here comes the cavalry which could be a reference to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D's Agent May who has killed a child in Bahrain just like Nat.
Did anyone catch that the whole 3rd act is basically the same as winter soldier, trying to save a some what robotic brain washed person fighting the protagonist on a falling ship
I thought it was interesting at various points when people were posed in a similar position to Natasha on vormir with a similar shot overhead. The black widow in Budapest, and melina disguised as Natasha in the red room towards the end are ones that come to mind. Obviously foreshadowing endgame.
14:12 I like to think its referring to Age of Ultron, when Clint keeps talking about how he wants to renovate his house by getting rid of the east wall in his dining room
Based on the plot and tone, I’m surprised “Zombie” wasn’t used in the opening credits. That song actually hints at family, and is about someone being a drone to a violent cause which was meant to reflect much of the IRA at the time.
I actually liked the movie. I guess people set high expectations due to the exposure to some amazing Disney plus shows and felt that the film fell short to their expectations
@@herloss448 I was a film student, even went to USC film school for a short while, and have been reading comics since the '50s. I rate the film 9/10 (a film like Amelie gets a 10). The only let down for me was the portrayal of Dreykov not being very menacing. The script was not great but very good, the action scenes some of the best I've seen. It was a supremely enjoyable comic based action film.
This was so useful... Since all those movies were so long ago I can't remember how they connect, and yet the effort marvel puts in to maintain the continuity is so remarkable.
A very little detail I had noticed when i watched the “widows bite” When Nat wears them in this movie are red and every other instance they’re blue signalling the change in events.
@@herloss448 Yea u probably like those heavily influenced Disney films for 13 yr old kids like GOTG , Spiderman NWH , Antman etc where there's no blood , dark elements, brutality and intensity.
This was a solid movie didn't have high expectations but it was pretty good... I do think the MCUs greatest asset also hurts them in these type of projects.... Them making everything connected makes people want more and more but when disney shows or movies like this people could be underwhelmed
Really loved the movie Had not much thought about it while viewing all the MCU Disney+ series But was really surprised by just the characters and their interactions Such a well made fun movie Made me wish we got this movie earlier
I like how Ross and others still don’t know who Scott Lang is after capturing him. Scott is undervalued by other charters but so essential to the MCU cause without him endgame wouldn’t have been possible.

As Taskmaster is more based on the suit in the MCU I guess someone else is going to wear the suit in future maybe some past S.H.I.E.L.D agent.
Yes
And the movie calls Taskmaster a protocol. So another person can use this protocol and return as Taskmaster
@@DanielOliveira-pn1rg big brain
@@DanielOliveira-pn1rg An actual mercenary this time hopefully.
true, sad how they wasted olga kurylenko too just like how they did ben kingsley
I thought it was hilarious when Yelena was making fun of Natasha’s posing
Me too!
Yeah lol
its YElena
Yelena*
Yesss
Actually "thank you for your cooperation" took me back to the scene when Natasha were questioning the target being bound to the chair on some construction site.
100%
Just another reference: The Drakov flashback is a reference to a scene in Spielberg’s Munich, where spies have planted a bomb in someone’s office however they decide to NOT detonate the bomb after the targets daughter returns from a privately driven car. The blocking and cinematography being reminiscent of that scene
16:12 Watching Loki, I legitimately thought Alexi was going to get pruned right here
x2
😅😅🤣
lmao same!
lmao same!
2016 is the biggest year in the MCU: Civil War, Doctor Strange, Homecoming, Black Widow and Black Panther. Biggest as in most movies for chronological order.
When did I ask?
👍🏽
@@Tech-cy9yo I found it very interesting. If you don’t care you can easily just keep scrolling
Melina: "You were selected by a program that assessed the genetic potential in infants" = Mutants/X-gene
Dreykov's console = Cerebro cameo
Dominic Toretto: I Have Family
NATASHA: Well I have two families
Vin Diesel : on your left
Why is no one talking about how the prisoner that Red Guardian broke the arm of is Ursa Major!? Powers realised or not he is the Bear Mutant! Mutants are official MCU canon guys! (not including Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver ofc)
Did you look to see if this actor pops up in any other coming films?
@@matthewminton4378 nothing appears to be confirmed, but it's always best to keep a keen eye out!
I was thinking about the same thing.
Guardian even calls him bear too! Definitely foreshadowing something.
@@blakemcmillan5680 100%!
I wish the Taskmaster reveal was more surprising. The movie was like, "Bad guy's daughter was killed by hero a long time ago and is now Taskmaster" That's what it felt like anyways
Yeah I was like okay who is this person?
They kinda ruined task master
I wish taskmaster was Greg Davies
Taskmaster is a protocol in this movie so someone else (tony masters) could become it in the future
Fr now it's a wasted character cause I don't see anyway that they can bring him back
I honestly really liked this movie. The opening credits were haunting and the rest of the movie I had a big smile on my face watching Yelena and Natasha and everyone interact and fight. So glad Marvel is back at the movies!!
An easter egg: what the red guardian has been trying to tell to the inmates is that the captain america he fought in the 80's is the Black Captain America.
Woahhh thanks for that
or it could be steve after he went back to peggy in endgame
But then why would he ask Natasha what Cap said about him, Natasha never met Isaiah Bradley
@@mayapriljunee creates a different timeline
I figured that Alexei was talking about Isaiah Bradley. Or perhaps another secret Captain America that the government had tried out. I dont think we ever hear him say "Steve Rogers" tbf.
He was probably lying about cap.
He asked Black Widow about Cap later in the movie and said he was his "Arch-Nemesis". He was prolly lying.
It can't be Isaiah because he was only active as a supersoldier in the 50's. After that he spent 30 years in prison and after he escaped he spent the rest of his life in hiding.
the fact that alexei asks natasha at the end, it's safe to assume that he was talking about steve rogers.
Rogers is the first Captain America... nobody wore the suite or went by title until we saw Falcon inherit it... Isiah was not given any respectable title or even acknowledged... he was a super soldier that was made to do America's bidding in a racist era without the ppl ever knowing about him..
quite a few “butt shots” in the beginning
almost thought joss whedon directed it
Lol😂😂😂
i never noticed any butt shots, but i feel by this point, ive become desensitized to butt shots. thats a sentence i never thought i would say....
@@yanguskhan8513 There were lots of them tbh...but it just goes over your head you know? I actually agree on the desensitization part😂
Or Zack Snyder in the case of WW.
Maybe it was "Buttshots" not " "butterfly" as the answer to Clint and Natasha's unfinished hangman game lol
Jeremy Renner actually renovates and flips houses. I think it's a nod to him.
True
Doesn't Anthony Mackie do the same thing?
Guess they have something to talk about on set.
@@melissaharris3389 Not sure.
@@melissaharris3389 oh yeah weren’t Anthony Mackie and Jeremy Renner the main characters in The Hurt Locker (2009) too?
That Gator Loki polo shirt actually looks dope...
Yea ikr
Thanks
Thanks
I want to consider that they never specifically named Antonia as Taskmaster in any dialogue, therefore I think someone will adapt the taskmaster mantle.
It was said very early in the film. Can’t remember exactly who said it, but it was something like “Should we activate Taskmaster Protocol”
A really cheap way to come back with a better Taskmaster if you introduce the absolute worst possible interpretation first. Even putting a clown nose on the Black Widow interpretation would be a significant improvement.
@@brettdiving2744 well It sorta sounded like a Special Project, kinda like the Winter Soldier and the Widows where there could be multiple.
I don't think they ever called him Taskmaster either in the movie
@@Oh_Ehm_Gee They did but as a Protocol, kinda like the Winter Soldier Program
I really liked how the location title cards were presented in the same font and the same style as in Civil War.
Another thing is we saw that when they got separated and anesthetized in Cuba , Yelena and Natasha were laying down as same way as when they got collected by the Red Room force in their jets.
Erik missed the part where alexei called ursa “baby bear”😅
@you- tube ah still the reference tho
The vest Nat wears in Infinity War really hits different now. Lots of pockets 😔✋
Doesn’t Red Guardian quote Loki, saying Nat’s ledger is dripping; it’s gushing red?
Yes! He's so proud of them lmao
The winter soldier knife flip was so cool cause taskmaster was mimicking the mind controlled assassin and Alexie was his comparison captain america
I want to see more of red guardian
I wish we could have a red guardian vs bucky face off
Test of strength
Another interesting thing i noticed. While working for the red room, melina and yelena both keep their hairs braided which means that they are not completely under their free will. But at last when they fight with natasha against dreykoy they fight with free hair meaning that they are now under the control of their life and not an object of somebody.
In the end of the main battle Nat says here comes the cavalry which could be a reference to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D's Agent May who has killed a child in Bahrain just like Nat.
That is a strange coincidence
I was seriously hoping for may to drop in from a helicopter
😭😭
Since u mention agents of shield, Taskmaster had a very similar theme to Sinara’s from season 5
" Woah, this would be a great way to die!" Lol I loved Yelena!!!
Did anyone catch that the whole 3rd act is basically the same as winter soldier, trying to save a some what robotic brain washed person fighting the protagonist on a falling ship
The whole movie felt like a somewhat cheap knock-off of the Winter Soldier
Yeah except BW's version of the winter soldier is also a bad knock off of alot of other villains with no interesting backstory
Yess
One of the prisoners that Red Guardian arm wrestle is Ursa. A reference to Ursa Major from the Winter Guard.
The team is known as the winter guard
Plus it was Ursa
Everyone knows this.
Ahh, the Black Widow movie. Also know as "Ray Winstone stands uncomfortably close to people"
His top gear sketch was incredible.
If you see closely when melina and alexia puts taskmaster in the cell u can see melina doing the "black widow pose"
COOL EASTER EGG
I thought it was interesting at various points when people were posed in a similar position to Natasha on vormir with a similar shot overhead. The black widow in Budapest, and melina disguised as Natasha in the red room towards the end are ones that come to mind. Obviously foreshadowing endgame.
same thing happened in Scarface.
Are these guys actually selling a lacoste polo with loki horns😭😂

14:12 I like to think its referring to Age of Ultron, when Clint keeps talking about how he wants to renovate his house by getting rid of the east wall in his dining room
Imagine if they had the Black Widow army in Infinity War.
Would not have made a difference
@@watersheep7175 why
They are good in hand to hand combat and with weapons but wouldn't make much difference
@@YTBSETTINGS what would hand to hand combat do against God stones
It’s sad thinking that’s one of the last times we will ever here the avengers theme in a movie
why?
It's amazing the amount of detail they put into these movies, absolutely love it. Thanks for the awesome run down, love the channel :)
I like how the kept the thick white lettering for the different locations like back in civil war
A Balisong "butterfly" knife is an assassins weapon, so it makes sense that's what the hangman answer was. Well done!
Based on the plot and tone, I’m surprised “Zombie” wasn’t used in the opening credits. That song actually hints at family, and is about someone being a drone to a violent cause which was meant to reflect much of the IRA at the time.
Anger's cover of Teen Spirit sounded like a Zombie mash up .
F9: It’s all about family
Black Widow: Hold my vodka
😭
I actually liked the movie. I guess people set high expectations due to the exposure to some amazing Disney plus shows and felt that the film fell short to their expectations
i wasnt even hyped for the movie but it was 4/10
@@herloss448 I was a film student, even went to USC film school for a short while, and have been reading comics since the '50s. I rate the film 9/10 (a film like Amelie gets a 10). The only let down for me was the portrayal of Dreykov not being very menacing. The script was not great but very good, the action scenes some of the best I've seen. It was a supremely enjoyable comic based action film.
This was so useful... Since all those movies were so long ago I can't remember how they connect, and yet the effort marvel puts in to maintain the continuity is so remarkable.
It’s surprising how there wasn’t many actual Easter eggs in this movie. It is full of details but not Easter eggs referencing the comics.
Strange that it's been 2 years since he did one of these.
He did an entire marvel series last year though, like every film in the mcu
Well no marvel movies have come out for 2 years
A very little detail I had noticed when i watched the “widows bite” When Nat wears them in this movie are red and every other instance they’re blue signalling the change in events.
I saw that too
Wish Disney makes more mature MCU content like in CA winter soldier , TFATWS and Black Widow. Absolutely love them. 😌🔥
winter soilder 😘. FAWS is 💩 and this movie is 🤮
@@herloss448 here comes the argument better ready my bunker
Well, Deadpool has been green-lit to be R-rated
@@herloss448 okay you’re definitely 10 years old
@@herloss448 Yea u probably like those heavily influenced Disney films for 13 yr old kids like GOTG , Spiderman NWH , Antman etc where there's no blood , dark elements, brutality and intensity.
This was a solid movie didn't have high expectations but it was pretty good...
I do think the MCUs greatest asset also hurts them in these type of projects.... Them making everything connected makes people want more and more but when disney shows or movies like this people could be underwhelmed
has nothing to do with wanting everything to be connected or a big bad storyline it was more the terrible action and bad cgi that had me un interested
The movie was below average + it should've been released sooner.
@@Youllpayforthat black widow be moving like black mamba in some of those scenes lol. I agree
we needed a good movie not a part fast and furious mess and part woke garbage
I loved the opening title sequence.. the Smells Like Teen Spirit cover really set the tone
Really loved the movie
Had not much thought about it while viewing all the MCU Disney+ series
But was really surprised by just the characters and their interactions
Such a well made fun movie
Made me wish we got this movie earlier
