Com a première de “Shang-Chi e a Lenda dos Dez Anéis” na noite de segunda-feira (16/8), em Los Angeles, alguns críticos já puderam conferir o filme. A turma geek, claro, não se conteve e encheu as redes sociais de elogios, como tem sido praxe após toda première da Marvel na última década.
Entre o entusiasmo genérico dos textos, alguns detalhes chamam atenção, com destaque para as coreografias das cenas de ação, a performance do protagonista Simu Liu e o fato de que se trata do filme menos Marvel de todos.
Os elogios também louvaram o final impactante da produção, apontaram que o público vibrou numa das duas cenas pós-créditos e ponderaram que o tema da família, mais que o conflito entre pai e filho, marca a história filme.
Veja abaixo alguns comentários representativos sobre a produção. Em inglês, jornalistas dos sites The Wrap, Collider, The Hollywood Reporter, SlashFilm, ComicBook e outros repetem basicamente o que foi resumido acima. E se repetem muito também.
Com Simu Liu (“Kim’s Convenience”) no papel principal, “Shang-Chi e a Lenda dos Dez Anéis” foi escrito por Dave Callaham (“Mortal Kombat”), dirigido por Destin Daniel Cretton (“Luta por Justiça”) e tem estreia marcada para 2 de setembro no Brasil, um dia antes do lançamento nos EUA. Somente nos cinemas.
#shangchi is like no Marvel movie you’ve seen. Love that it opens the door to a new world that I can’t wait to see more of. @SimuLiu literally kicks so much ass and he is perfectly cast. Got to see it in @imax tonight and this is how you want to see it. Looked and sounded perfect pic.twitter.com/43SaSxfx3m

#ShangChi was a blast! Actually, Marvel's first true "family movie" that has a lot of heart. Loads of fun, great fight choreography, & likeable characters galore!

The #ShangChi crowd was the most enthusiastic I have been with since Endgame. Couldn’t hear some of the post credit scene dialogue due to cheering. Shang and Katy are instant MCU all stars pic.twitter.com/tQigQFY6ey

Expected a simple father/son conflict narrative and it's so much bigger than that. #ShangChi is a beautiful story about family, loss, and how our grief can blind and destroy us.

In many ways it feels like the least MCU movie of the MCU, and I think a lot of people will really love that. It’s a great standalone adventure/origin story and now I’m excited to see how Shang-chi fits into the future of this cinematic universe.

#ShangChi is awesome. This movie hits all that Marvel does well (pacing, humor, character) and adds action like we’ve never seen from the MCU before! 👏🏻👏🏻
Lots of people are about to have a new favorite Marvel hero.
Darker than expected. Loads of fun. Integral to MCU Phase 4!👀 pic.twitter.com/YI3jkwLuq6

3 things.
1. #shangchi has on the best best #MCU origins I’ve seen.
2. The action in #SahangChi is some of the best I’ve seen in the MCU!
3. @SimuLiu is my favorite actor in the #MCU and is welcomed to karaoke with us at any time! pic.twitter.com/HXgawuIjpn

#ShangChi has some pacing issues – there’s a bit of a start/stop feel to it at times and slow parts. But it has a lot of strengths throughout and most crucially, ends very strong.
