I have decided to take upon myself the challenge of watching one movie, once a day. The span of this challenge will be spread-out over a 365 day period. If I am not able to watch a movie one day, I will just simply make it up on the next day, or whenever possible. I shall then attempt to write a review. Of course, who is to say that is to be formal in any way. Because, quite frankly, it will not be even close to proper.
Today, I shall start in this journey.
The Avengers **** 1/2
A movie in which all bounds are non-existent. I was quite surprised to say the least when I saw the movie. The title does and does not suit the movie in any and every way. It is a story that follows an agent of the British Ministry, John Steed, whom is under the guidance and direction of "The Mother". He is given the assignment of investigating diabolical plot that has been hatched by a Sir August de Wynter, that lays out a plan of world domination through weather control. He threatens to freeze Britain, and he then at one point unleashes a blizzard on Trafalgar Square. From there, he attempts to control the weather of other countries around the world. John Steed is also assigned the task of investigating an "awe-striking" doctor, Mrs. Emma Peel, whom is the only suspect in the Sir August de Wynter case. Though, he falls madly in love with her before he is able to know what has hit him. He finds out that she is in fact not allies with Sir August, and joins forces with her in destroying this weather contraption and ridding the world of the despicable Sir August. However, do they really stop him? Or are they destroyed, themselves, in the process?
That is for me to know, and you to find out...
How did I do? Feel free to leave any and all comments.
Yours Truly,
Haley Nicole
