Captain America


With the Avengers movie coming out soon, I decided to watch and review Captain America. Captain America came out in 2011 and stars Chris Evans, Tommy Lee Jones and Hugo Weaving. It was the final Avenger super hero film before the Avengers movie coming out this May. The film shows the origins of the Marvel superhero, Captain America.

If you enjoyed the other Marvel superhero movies like Thor and the Iron Man movies then you will probably enjoy this film. The film is very action packed, which is of course common place in super hero films. What gives this movie a unique aspect is that it takes place during World War 2. There is plenty of laughs in the film, which gives it more entertainment value than just action. The acting could be better but it is decent enough not to take away from the film. The fact the villains in the movie were nazi's, made you really root for Captain America to win the fight against them. It wasn't the best Marvel super hero movie, but it was definitely entertaining, especially if you are planning to see the Avengers movie next month.

  1. I generally don't like action movies, but I love super hero movies. I haven't seen Captain America yet, but I can't wait! I think the World War II setting will add an interesting vibe.
