Review of Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) by Brandon S — 18 Feb 2016
Directed with clarity and attention to detail, this may just be the most mature chapter in the Marvel cinematic universe thus far, even though it isn't necessarily my favorite. I also wish that Bay would pay attention to the way the Russo brothers stage this movie's action.
Long takes, no quick cutting, CGI only when it's necessary, and a clear sense of urgency. This is some of the most skillfully staged and filmed action I've seen in quite a while from an American studio film.
A great ride that's loads of fun, and further states that superhero movies are more than just a gimmick now.
