More Review
Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
ayaaniscute Red skull was such a wasted character in this movie and in the MCU in general. In the comics, he is Captain America's greatest enemy but in this film, his motives and origins are never even explored. He was just a one-off character. Peggy's relationship with Cap also felt really forced, he carries a pendant of her face around with him and it's never explained why. People that carry pendants of their partners into battle but those people have often been married for years, more often than not, several years. Meanwhile Cap carries around a pendant of a woman he met 2-3 years ago and never had feelings until Italy in 1944. They haven't even been on their first date yet so he can barely call her a girlfriend. Besides that, the rest of the movie was good. I really liked Steve's character development of how he went from a man that wanted to give his country his all to a man that gave his country his all in his final moments.
kongecssn You have watch the movie for Captain.You can get a good time for dialogues and action.
alexlachance A few flaws but a great story. It was a very emotional movie with the death of Bucky ( who will come back ) and the freeze of Captain himself.
emiliecunning-21094 I don't get why this movie only has a 6.9 rating on here - it's fantastic! Truly, I think this MCU movie is one of the best origin movies of them all and starts off what I believe to be the greatest MCU trilogy so far! This movie has so many connotations besides just being Captain America's origin story, especially with the political undertones and historical background of WW2. Chris Evans is spectacular as always as Captain America, and seeing his transformation from skinny little Steve to hunky Steve is just...wow. Plus, you've got a genuinely menacing villain in Hugo Weaving's Red Skull and the start of the infinity stone (tesseract) story within this film. I also love at the beginning of the movie when they show Ygdrasil, the tree of life from Norse mythology, which nicely ties into the Thor movie which came out not long before this one. The supporting cast is also excellent, with Tommy Lee Jones and Stanley Tucci bringing star power to the film, and then Sebastian Stan is wonderful as always as Bucky (later the Winter Soldier!!!) and Hayley Atwell is also excellent. I think the naysayers need to revisit this movie and see how good it is compared to some of the other MCU films - like why is this rated just above the god awful Hulk movie?? And it's also FAR better than Thor: The Dark World which has a higher rating than this! Come on guys! This movie is GREAT! Captain America will always be the best MCU trilogy.
