Most helpful review Captain America - The First Avenger

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This is really a much more old fashioned Saturday morning adventure than your normal superhero movie. It sets the scene from the start with some good but not in your face special effects (skinny Chris Evans looks amazing) and (shock horror) gaves you characters to care about. The storyline is bit basic but it was nice to see no great character arc, he is a good man at the start and this continues. A grand finish and rather poignent ending make this one of the more enjoyable marvel flicks.

  • Another Marvel marvel.

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    I've enjoyed all the Marvel and/or Avengers style titles that I've watched so far, and this is no exception. If you've enjoyed Thor, Iron Man (or any others of the same ilk) you should not be disappointed with this offering. I think my only criticism was the ending, which maybe could have been introduced a bit more smoothly. As it was, it happened too suddenly for me, and Captain America seemed to just go 'oh ok' and carried on. It may have been a bit more believable if they had put perhaps another 5 minutes into easing both the superhero (and the audience) into it more gracefully. Otherwise, a thoroughly enjoyable film.

    A very good film. In particular, thought the villain (Red Skull) was great. Good build up to the Avengers movie.
