Summary Comic book movies often neglect a critical component of superhero work, saving civilians, with a handful of scenes standing out as being perfect examples of what more films should be doing. From the eclectic DC films from Warner Bros to the movies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it's shockingly often that superhero movies actually remember to include scenes of heroes saving people, a crucial element of their job other than fighting villains or struggling with a secret identity.
Instructing each passenger he saves to link hands with one another, Iron Man manages to daisy-chain all the falling victims of the attack by electrifying their arms to force their grip shut, eventually gliding downwards with the entire baker's dozen for a rough but non-lethal water landing. This scene truly showcases Tony's ingenuity and ability to think-on-the-fly, using every resource available to him to overcome the odds.
Director Bryn Singer Release Date June 28, 2006 Studio Warner Bros. Pictures Distributor Warner Bros. Pictures Writers Michael Dougherty , Dan Harris , Bryan Singer Runtime 2h 34m Franchise Superman prequel Superman II , Superman III Budget 204 million Main Genre Superhero Expand Brandon Routh's Superman is an often overlooked member of the elite group of actors to have played the Man of Steel in cinemas.
5 This sequence is so significant for many reasons. The imagery and metaphorical weight of Batman's actions aren't lost on the tone of the film, which shifts from bleak to hopeful. It's worth noting also that Batman doesn't perform any flashy rescues or actions that couldn't be completed by a trained paramedic, simply adding his hands to those managing the crisis.
While this scene is technically more of a fight than a straightforward rescue, it still demonstrates the same heroic mettle that other superheroes strive for when saving civilians. Captain America pulls no punches against the invaders, snapping necks and forcing friendly fire in his effort to save as many lives as possible. Even if the advanced bomb does eventually go off, Captain America's efforts in protecting his hometown's residents can't be undersold.
Just when it seems hope is lost as Spider-Man's efforts aren't good enough, Iron Man swoops in for the assist, pushing the cracked shell back together with the aid of some suspiciously-specific repulsor drones and spot-welding the hull back together with his laser.
Beyond being an impressive action setpiece that shows off the animation of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the scene is great for the film's character building purposes. Each Spider-Man variant puts their pride below their efforts as they quickly split up duties and follow each other's orders with no hesitation, realizing that lives are on the line with every second that passes. The scene also sets up Miles' unwillingness to let people die, even in the face of canon events.
