Film Review | John Carter 3Dposted in film by Amon A century ago, Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote ‘A Princess of Mars’, the first novel in his Barsoom series. Since then it has gone on to inspire a whole host of films, Star Wars and Avatar among them. Fast forward 100 years later and super fan of the books Andrew Stanton, famous for animated flicks WALL-E and Finding Nemo, has been given a $300 million budget and the task of bringing Burroughs’ vision to life in his first live action feature. Is it a success, or has the originality of Burroughs’ story been bled out in the years it’s taken John Carter to get to the big screen? follow AMON on twitter The story follows John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), a civil war veteran now on the hunt for treasure. Soon enough he happens across an amulet that transports him to Mars (Barsoom to the natives), where he becomes embroiled in a conflict between the planets inhabitants. That includes the evil Zodangans, ruthlessly led by Dominic West’s Sab Than, who are at war with the peaceful Heliumites, led by King Tardos Mors (Ciarán Hinds) and warrior princess Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). Than has been gifted with a powerful weapon courtesy of the manipulative Matai Shang (Mark Strong), which is turning the tide of the war in the Zondangans’ favour. Stuck in the middle are the Tharks – an aggressive race of green-skinned, nine foot tall four armed creatures – who capture Carter soon after he touches down on their planet. With enhanced strength and the ability to jump Hulk-like distances on Barsoom, Carter must win the Tharks’ respect and persuade them to join the battle before it’s too late. On paper it may seem like too many characters and factions for a singular film but, to Stanton & co’s credit, for the most part it works, and at no point does the plot become overly convoluted. However, the narrative is not without its faults; it would have us believe that Carter does not care about anything other than treasure (and later on getting back home), and does not want to be a part of any conflict after suffering a personal loss in the civil war. However, it’s difficult to buy into that idea when Carter’s actions from the outset and throughout indicate otherwise. If ever there was a cinematic character that exemplifies the timeless adage of ‘actions speak louder than words’, John Carter is it. Visually, John Carter is sensational. Everything from the aesthetics of Mars to the great white Apes translates brilliantly on screen. The attention to detail is striking at times, with the Tharks – led by Willem Dafoe’s Tars Tarkas – a particular highlight in that regard. They really do feel like a real and believable race after a while, and that is a testament to the excellent acting of Dafoe, Samantha Morton and Thomas Haden Church, and the equally fantastic animation. This is also true of Strong’s Matai Shang, whose shape-shifting ability makes for some great moments. Whilst the action sequences are very good at times – a Gladiator-esque battle in an arena undoubtedly the high point – it doesn’t quite earn the epic tagline it so flagrantly promises. The 3D does augment the odd scene or two, but you wouldn’t be missing too much if you opted for the 2D version. Kitsch’s performance is difficult to analyse at times as it continually fluctuates. There are scenes where he’ll be breathing hard, delivering pieces of dialogue in a monotonous drone. And yet, he is compelling to watch, and just about manages to convince as an action hero. Lynn Collins steals the show as Dejah Thoris, who is seemingly equal parts fighter, scientist and princess (not necessarily in that order). The story of burgeoning romance between an outsider and royalty is nothing new, but it’s great to watch when it is done as well as it is here, and much of that is owed to Collins who nails both the feminine and warrior-like aspects of her character. “Any Last Words”? Visually beyond reproach and strongly acted, John Carter is an entertaining fantasy flick which lays the groundwork for possible sequels well. Stanton has certainly done enough to warrant making them. John Carter 3D was screened at Cineworld Haymarket courtesy of Disney Studios in partnership with Think Jam PR.

Ekskluzivno u Cineplexx/Movieplex kinima upoznajte novog junaka današnjice – Johna Cartera! Avanturistčki 3D spektakl nabijen akcijom, „John Carter“ dolazi u kina 8. ožujka, a do tada uživajte u ovoj fantastičnoj najavi u kojoj glavni glumci i redatelj pričaju o filmu i što od njega možete očekivati te u službenom traileru filma! „John Carter je morao postojati kako bi se dogodili Ratovi zvijezda i Avatar“, reći će u jednom trenutku Willem Dafoe koji je svoj glas posudio jednom od glavnih likova u filmu – Tarsu Tarkasu. I vjerojatno je u pravu. Film „John Carter“ snimljen je prema romanu „A Princess of Mars“ autora Edgara Ricea Burroughsa koji je objavljen davne 1917. godine. To je ujedno i Burroughsov prvi roman uopće u karijeri, ali i prvi u seriji od 11 knjiga o planetu Barsoom (Mars) koje će pisati naredna tri desetljeća. U filmu su glavne uloge ostvarili Taylor Kitsch kao John Carter, Lynn Collins kao Dejah Thoris, Ciaran Hinds kao Tardos Mors, Mark Strong kao Matai Shang, Bryan Cranston kao Powell i Dominic West kao Sab Than. Od poznatih glumaca koji su svoje glasove posudili kompjuterski generiranim likovima svakako treba izdvojiti Willema Dafoea, Samanthu Morton i Thomasa Hadena Churcha. Glavni junak priče je ratom iscrpljeni, bivši vojni kapetan John Carter koji je neobjašnjivo trasportiran na Mars gdje protiv svoje volje postane upleten u sukob epskih proporcija između lokalnih stanovnika planeta koji uključuju Tarsa Tarkasa i zarobljenu princezu Dejah Thoris. U svijetu koji se nalazi na rubu kolapsa, Carter će ponovno pronaći svoju ljudskost nakon što otkrije da sudbina Barsooma i njegovih ljudi leži u njegovim rukama... Film „John Carter“ započeti će sa svojim kino prikazivanjem 8. ožujka samo u kinima Movieplex Zagreb (Centar Kaptol), Cineplexx Split (City Center One) i Cineplexx Osijek (Avenue Mall). Film će se također prikazivati i u IMAX-u, a sve u najmodernijoj 3D tehnologiji.
