(CNN) 漫威为“鹰眼”第六集也是最后一集在树下打包了很多礼物，这是一个几乎疯狂忙碌的小时，在太多方面展开。虽然工作室因沉迷于一个敢于经常犯傻的节目而值得称赞，但除了建立凯特毕晓普之外，这个系列比任何迪士尼+前辈都更容易被抛弃。
尽管鹰眼/克林特·巴顿（杰瑞米·雷纳饰）和他的新搭档凯特（海莉·斯坦菲尔德饰）担任了该剧的中心人物，但《鹰眼》却被其他漫威电影公司拉入其轨道。
到大结局时，不仅包括“黑寡妇”中的叶莲娜（弗洛伦斯·普格饰），最终与克林特分享了她对娜塔莎之死的悲痛，还有在 Netflix 经营的坚韧不拔的“夜魔侠”系列中介绍的主角（文森特·多诺弗里奥饰）从 2015 年到 2018 年。再加上查理考克斯（又名夜魔侠）在当前蜘蛛侠续集中的出现，在“星球大战”的术语中，我们似乎在探索漫威电影宇宙的外缘。
在一个关键方面，该节目通过其演员阵容放弃了部分游戏，因为维拉法米加将是一个异常高调的人才，可以浪费在倒数第二集之前作为凯特妈妈的相当基本的角色。事实上，她与主销勾结的揭露因此并没有那么令人震惊，即使它确实使凯特的生活进一步复杂化，进而使结局本身更加复杂。
事实上，即使按照漫威的标准，也有很多事情同时发生，凯特扮演主销，克林特对抗叶莲娜和另一个新角色玛雅（阿拉夸考克斯），转向主销的暴徒。
当烟雾消散时，普遍的感觉是一种解脱，让巴顿一家分享父亲辛苦争取的圣诞节，然后以美国队长音乐剧的精彩表演结束，结果证明是系列剧“最奇怪的启发触摸。
当然，并非漫威所做的一切本质上都必须是征服世界的和歌剧（甚至摇滚歌剧），而“鹰眼”显然试图提供比它的大多数兄弟更扎实的观点。正如凯特对她起初不情愿的导师所说的那样，他的功绩教会了她“成为英雄不仅仅适合那些可以飞或从手中射出激光的人。”该节目还找到了斯坦菲尔德和普格的喜剧搭档，他们的玩笑为最后两章增添了光彩，为未来创造了一些有趣的可能性。
不过总的来说，《鹰眼》确实就像漫威给粉丝们的节日贺卡一样。对那首朗朗上口的歌曲表示歉意，尽管它有一些巧妙的时刻，但这不是那种需要很快重复的练习，更不用说一整天了。
'Hawkeye' takes aim at too many targets with its very busy finale
(CNN)Marvel packed a lot of presents under the tree for "Hawkeye's" sixth and final episode, an almost insanely busy hour that unfolded on too many fronts. While the studio deserves some credit for indulging in a show that dared to be goofy as often as not, other than establishing Kate Bishop this series felt more disposable than any of its Disney+ predecessors.
Although Hawkeye/Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) and his new sidekick Kate (Hailee Steinfeld) provided the show's center, "Hawkeye" was heavily punctuated by other Marvel properties pulled into its orbit.
By the finale, that included not only Yelena (Florence Pugh) from "Black Widow," finally sharing her grief with Clint over Natasha's death, but the Kingpin (Vincent D'Onofrio), introduced in the gritty "Daredevil" series that Netflix ran from 2015-2018. Coupled with the appearance by Charlie Cox (a.k.a. Daredevil) in the current Spider-Man sequel, and in "Star Wars" terms we're seemingly probing the outer rim of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In one key respect, the show gave part of the game away with its casting, since Vera Farmiga would be an unusually high-profile talent to squander in what had been until the penultimate episode a fairly basic role as Kate's mom. The reveal that she was, in fact, working in cahoots with the Kingpin thus didn't come as much of a shock, even if it did further complicate Kate's life, and by extension the finale itself.
Indeed, even by Marvel's standards there was a lot happening all at once, with Kate taking on the Kingpin, Clint confronting Yelena and another new character, Maya (Alaqua Cox), turning on the Kingpin's mob.
By the time the smoke cleared the prevailing sense was one of relief, allowing the Bartons to share the Christmas that dad had fought so hard to earn before closing with a great big showstopper from the Captain America musical, which turned out to be the series' most oddly inspired touch.
Of course, not everything that Marvel does has to be world-conquering and operatic (or even rock opera-ish) in nature, and "Hawkeye" clearly sought to provide a more grounded view than most of its brethren. As Kate told her at-first grudging mentor, his exploits taught her that "being a hero isn't just for people who can fly or shoot lasers out of their hands." The show also found a winning comedic pairing in Steinfeld and Pugh, whose banter brightened up the last two chapters, creating some interesting possibilities going forward.
Overall, though, "Hawkeye" really did play like the equivalent of a holiday card from Marvel to its fans. And with apologies to that catchy song, despite its share of clever moments this isn't the kind of exercise that needs repeating anytime soon, much less do all day.
