'The Departed' director criticizes Marvel movies for not being 'movies'

Marvel movies may be the most popular and profitable movies in the world today. The star-studded Avengers 4 has surpassed Cameron's Avatar to become the highest-grossing movie in the world. However, in the United States, many directors still do not agree with superhero movies. Recently, American master director Martin Scorsese said in an interview with Empire magazine that "Marvel movies cannot be called movies, but more like theme park products."

Martin Scorsese said that he tried to watch Marvel movies, but he just couldn't get through them. He believes that Marvel movies are not movies, but works where actors try to convey emotions and spiritual feelings. Although Marvel movies are also very well made and the actors' performances are very good, they still look like the images you see in a theme park.

Martin Scorsese is a top Hollywood director who directed classic films such as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas in the last century. In the 21st century, masterpieces such as Gangs of New York, The Departed and The Wolf of Wall Street were also released.

Martin Scorsese's words attracted a lot of attention. Among the creators of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the first to respond was Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn.

Director Gun said: "Martin Scorsese is one of my five favorite living film directors. His early film "The Last Temptation of Christ" caused widespread protests. Many people criticized the film without watching it. I was very angry at the time and opposed to criticizing without watching the film. I am very sad now that he criticized our film in the same way. However, I will still always like Martin's film work."
