Abstract

The article discusses the surprising success of Marvel's new movie, Thunderbolts*, despite low expectations due to Marvel Studios' recent decline in quality. The film features a group of lesser-known characters from previous projects, led by Florence Pugh's Yelena Belova. The movie blends humor with depth, focusing on the characters' struggles and their attempts to survive a dangerous situation orchestrated by a corrupt CIA director. Thunderbolts* manages to engage viewers with its well-acted performances, balanced tone, and hints at future developments in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. [Extracted from the article]
