Review of Captain America: Civil War (2016) by Hotelcentral — 03 Nov 2016

Watching "Civil War" is a bit like watching pro wrestling: yes, it's all full of thrills and spills that make it entertaining, but you know that in the end it's all preordained and even if someone does get killed the magic of comics can always bring them back.

The film is well over two hours. The fights are endless. The one-liners come fast and furious and make the fight at the airport hilarious. For me, the high point of the film.

My main problem with the film is this: How is it that Tony Stark, the guy with an ego too big for any one planet, is the guy who opts to go along with the government, while Mr. Patriotism, Capt America, is the guy who decides to go rogue? Also, the plotline revolving around the evil or stupid government deciding to oppress the superheroes is getting a little old.
