I really enjoyed the movie. I thought it did what it had to do to introduce him for the Avengers.

Is it better than Thor? I think its on par really. Both movies had that Marvel-comic book cheesiness that kind of makes it clear that its going for Story over Plot. Which is perfectly acceptable for comic book movies.

Good movie, I wasnt overly impressed with the action sequences but the story/plot more than made up for it. Hugo Weaving was great as always, but I gotta say the guy who played Tony Starks father was my favorite. He was a like a mix of dicaprio in Aviator and robert downy jr, really entertaining imo

Spoiler: show

did anyone else feel the last part of the film felt rushed? everything was paced so well then it was just a montage of fights and battles with no explanation and they sped up to the final encounter with Red Skull pretty fast, I felt like the director cut alot of stuff out so the movie wouldnt be so long

[Kaslo]

I felt like I was watching inception when:

Spoiler: show

Steve ran out into New York after he woke up in present day

[Delirium]

Spoiler: show

things i didn't like were minor...like the stupid salute the red skull soldiers did or the generic band of bros (the black guy didn't even have a name) (and they all looked way too clean for being PoWs, even if it was for a short while)

were those people in the comics?

bucky was cool. hope he comes back in later movies for some screen-time

Spoiler: show

the salute, the Hail Hydra, and the "if a head is cut off, two more will take its place" are all HYDRA things from the comic, so I'm glad they kept those personally.
The Howling Commandos were in the comics. Dum Dum Dugan was the guy with the bowler hat and mustache. Gabe Jones was the black guy. Jim Morita was the asian. The British guy was Union Jack(I forget his real name. I also forget who the French guy was.

Bucky was found by Russians in the comics, missing and arm and having amnesia. They fit a robotic arm on him and program him to become a Russian assassin named Winter Soldier. He becomes a major villain of Cap's. Eventually Cap uses the cosmic cube to restore Bucky's memories.

Let's talk about Hayley Atwell's rack... should have had their own billing. I liked the movie, didn't feel too long, lots of funny bits that were pretty natural sounding, and the action was good, like the first scene where Cap is actually you know, Cap.

[Outlaw]

Got back from seeing it a little while ago. I enjoyed it. I thought they did a really good job with the character. They didn't try to change him at all. Some people mite not dig that type of character now days but I think that's part of the charm, the old fashioned super hero who punches the lights out of the bad guys! I like how they did the whole WWII era thing.. like the part where..

Spoiler: show

he is traveling around with the USO telling people to buy war bonds and punching out Hitler. heh that made me smile

[kuronosan]

Loved every minute of it, but fiancee and I agreed it dragged for a bit at the beginning (if only to set up the character).

Super-hyped for Avengers and can't wait to see more Cap. I'm especially excited to see how he acts with Iron Man.

[Dimmauk]

I really enjoyed this movie, and I'm super hyped about the Avengers movie.

[aduidarnenye]

Saw it this afternoon in 3D. Wasn't amazing but wasn't terrible either. Enjoyable popcorn movie. I liked the campy bits with the USO bonds. Thought that was funny.

I missed the after the credits scene sadly. Really had to pee.

[deshende]

This movie has one of the more obvious Wilhelm screams that I've noticed in recent history

[Kuya]

Who knew that watching a guy run around with a white shirt could be so entertaining.

Glad I wasn't the only one to notice.

I thought this movie was effing great, well above Thor & X-men: First Class. It was like a good Indiana Jones movie(not counting the last with Shia Labeef). Great story, great characters. Tommy Lee Jones was gold. It even had the first flying car that's later standard SHIELD vehicles(well, atleast for Nick Fury). I was skeptical that Chris Evans could pull it off but he came through with flying colors.

When Cap broke out the P.O.W.s and the asian guy said he was from Fresno, everyone in the theater cheered haha.

[stonymonk]

I feel like anybody who doesn't like Chris Evans hasn't seen Push or Sunshine which are both great movies IMO. i like to compare Capt. to Iron man 1 with Thor, Ed Norton Hulk, and Green lantern, which are all characters for Avengers. ( even thought it wont be Ed in the Avengers ) All of these starter movies are more about character development than 90 min of action and i am interested to see the individual sequels maybe more than the jumble of heroes that Avengers will prolly be.

[Deftscythe]

Green Lantern is my favorite Avenger.

[stonymonk]

agreed sometimes i make mistakes green lantern is not part of the avengers. all these super hero movies coming out at the same time and all. My opinion that i said still stands.

[grantlogan]

Not like he was in the preview for The Avengers you dumb-shit. Also, Green Lantern is my favorite Avenger.

[tyven]

i wish this was an avengers team with spidey
