Superhero films are not all about made up heroes and villains,or the visual effects,even.Look closer consciously and you will find humanity peeping out of the frame.The triumph of good over evil is definitely a recurring theme, but played out beside essentially humane experiences and emotions,it almost always works,and for a wide audience too.The successful X-Men franchise,or standalone movies like Guardians of the Galaxy stand testament to this fact and are but a few examples in the wide spectrum of Hollywood(you have to admit,they are still the best at what they do).When a man with a tormented past turns villain,it is not altogether unexpected and the audience cannot exactly hate them;they are no longer the cliched Satan in disguise.The other characters too may possess supernatural powers,and may side with good or evil but they are all ultimately human and that makes the story relatable. Of course,these impossible worlds are conjured up by humans themselves,so it is inevitable that we infuse some element of ours into what we create for the world to see.Why are we so enticed by the supernatural?Is it an escape from reality,a tactic much like indulgence in any art form,a passion for which,promises a refuge from the drudgery of daily life?Or just artistic expression,designed to enthrall viewers and set cash registers ringing,no other explanation required?
