    Best Marvel Movie Yet? Maybe.


    First of all, I want to say that this movie might just be the best Marvel movie ever.  I won't give away the entire story; I'll just tell you that it's very simple, refreshing, good-guy vs. bad-guy.  The actors did a good job overall, and I felt that it was a great way to introduce non-comic-nerds to Captain America. 

    I hardly have any cons to list this time!  The bad language was pretty non-intrusive.  Cap. kissed a girl he'd never met, and Mr. Stark made several immoral references (like father, like son).  Other than that, it was really pretty clean, and very family-friendly in comparison with most PG-13 movies. 
     
    I loved the way this movie embraced heroism and selflessness in Captain America.  He's very different from Thor and Iron Man in this way, so I'm glad the Avengers won't all have identical personalities (not that Thor and Tony are alike, either).   I'm very much looking forward to 'Avengers' next summer.  By the way, make sure to stay past the credits for a great teaser.

      One Of The Best Comic Movies Ever Made 0

      I went into this movie with a few doubts, mostly due to the fact that Steve Rogers was being portrayed by Chris Evans.

To my surprise and delight, Evans did in my opinion, an outstanding job portraying Rogers in exactly the fashion he has been written in comics ever since his creation.  The movie starts out with a puny Steve Rogers trying to enlist in the war and ends up being denied for the fifth time. He's noticed ...

      It's like SPider-Man & Indiana Jones In One Movie 0

      Captain America: The First Avenger by silverzeo on July 23, 2011

      Today I have seen Captain America: First Avenger, and I have to say: It was a fun film to watch.   When it first starts out, I kept having this odd feeling I have seen this movie before, and when it was time for Steve to take the Serum, it dawned on me: It was like Spider-Man! I kinda felt like it was cheap of Marvel of not having the Toby McQuire Spider-Man be part of the Avengers plot, as (the way I see it) that the Spider-Man movies help brought back the Superhero Movie Genre,   and we wouldn...
