"The Old Guard" is at its best when defying expectations. It begins as several Netflix action-flick duds have, with a gang of mostly-white saviors traveling to an exotic land to rescue racial "others." Captain America, Chris Evans, did it in "Red Sea Diving Resort" 2019. Thor, Chris Hemsworth, too, with "Extraction" 2020. Batman, Ben Affleck, however, just went after the cash, which figures, in "Triple Frontier" 2019. Then, there was also Michael Bay's version of a Justice League led by Deadpool's Ryan Reynolds getting into all sorts of mischief across the globe in "6 Underground" 2019. In other words, Netflix programming has well established a formula here. Any variation in this is welcomed in place of repetition, so I appreciate that "The Old Guard" exploits these long-standing (that is, they're hardly exclusive to Netflix) racially-charged tropes to ensnare a team of immortals. Tellingly, this first act is followed by the team's plans of revenge being upended, at least momentarily, by the emergence of a new immortal, who is also a black woman. Not that this team was exactly regressive in their advanced ages before this, though, as we also discover that two members are gay lovers who fought on opposite sides of the Crusades, as unbelievable as maintaining a romantic relationship spanning hundreds of years may seem.
This isn't so much rewarding as a reflection of progressive politics or inclusivity of gender, racial or sexual representation, either, as it is an effective upturning of a century or more of cinematic precedent, including those aforementioned Netflix releases. Like the immortals in the movie, this goes back much further. Adventures such as "Gunga Din" 1939) for example, and other such films echoing the centuries of colonialism and, yes, the Crusades, too. One of the lovers does go off with a lecture on their relationship in one scene, but it still comes across as more natural and sincere than, say, the self-congratulatory groupings of women for a scene each in the last two Avengers movies. On a lesser note, but also befitting the untraditional nature of a superhero movie for streaming, these supernaturally-gifted beings mostly use guns. Makes more sense, even if one is immortal, I would think, that one fire a rifle at baddies instead of tossing a shield or hammer. There's still, of course, a lot of the requisite quick cuts for Charlize Theron's hand-to-hand combat, as well as the gang's singular superpower essentially making them redundancies of the likes of Wolverine and Deadpool, and Theron's character does have a fondness for axes, but on that last account we may chalk it up to habits practiced over millennia being hard to break. The score isn't particularly effective, either, and isn't exploited heavily here during the action scenes, but that's a minor complaint.
On one hand, too, I wish more had been done with the characters having lived manifold lifetimes- especially beyond brief references to first editions of "Don Quixote" or to Rodin originals. Besides indicating that they've lived to see the birth of the modern novel and modern sculpture, as well as all those wars, all we get here is a crazy board suggesting that Theron's superheroics have been behind much of all good things throughout history and a tease for a sequel involving her friend, another immortal, lost at sea in some sort of iron maiden back in the days when their superpowers got them tried for witchcraft. On the other hand, I'm afraid they would've screwed up such a concept if they tried to delve too deeply. Perhaps, it's better than that the focus remain on fleeting attempts by the usual corporate baddies to exploit their gifts, as well as the eventual actual mortality of the so-called immortals, and the relative youth of their new recruit. Yet, most of all, I've just missed superhero blockbusters- one of the main attractions of going to cinemas the past decade or so. With so many of the releases for Marvel, DC and whomever installments being delayed due to the pandemic, The Old Guard" was a welcome diversion and reminder of that past life.
The Old.
The old guard comic.
An interesting concept, made extremely boring.
That wouldn't be so bad, if it wasn't compounded by pretty horrific writing and less than stellar acting.
The real nail in the coffin is the constant hammering on current points of social disagreements. Kinda weird to see an all-woman Marine combat squad a year after the Marines released scores showing all-male squads drastically outperforming mix-gender squads and declaring female combat roles a big "nope.
As with just about anything on Netflix now, the protagonists are a list of minority check marks, and the antagonist is - of course - a rich white dude. *Yawn*
If that's your bag, enjoy. If you're tired of the exact same messaging delivered the exact same way, movie after movie after movie. Best to skip.
