Review of Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) by Kevtheobald — 23 Jul 2011

Great movie if you love comics, but if you are an average movie goer, this movie will be good. The visuals are very good and the dialog has some really good lines, but the script is very predictable and some of the action gets a little cheesy.

Unlike Iron Man or Batman, where you see them develop much of their skills or abilities, Captain America becomes an instant super soldier. The problem for me is they use a biological method to make him, but that does not explain how he has the knowledge or skills to fly a plain, ride a motorcycle, or do hand-to-hand combat.

If you are looking for a popcorn flick and like sci-fi/fantasy movies, you should be able to enjoy this. If you loved Iron Man, then you will really enjoy this, but just do not expect it to be better than Iron Man.
