Review of Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) by Tompaine — 21 Jul 2011

This movie had everything you could ever want fora superhero movie...and then some! The most fun I had at the movies in a long, long time. The story is great! The action is great! The sets, the pace, the villains, the CGI, etc...Great! Great! Great! The dialogue is even great! (And we're usually forced to forgive superhero dialogue.) Despite knowing that this just the final piece before the big ensemble assembles next summer, it never felt like a bridge movie to the Avengers. It was it's own animal.

MINOR Spoiler: Positively the best after-credits surprise you could ever imagine! Standing ovation worthy.
