IMO, Tommy Lee Jones was the best part about the film and he had all of the jokes. <br /><br />I can see where a lot of your complaints are coming from, but I actually enjoyed this film much more than Thor. Great review, though.Ryan Fernandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11849610480857698067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-47919410551828344122011-08-05T18:52:04.373-05:002011-08-05T18:52:04.373-05:00I agree with a lot of what you say here, but of co...I agree with a lot of what you say here, but of course, my comment will really only be about the one thing that I really disagree with. That's how these things work, right? ;)<br /><br />You talk about the pacing and how it's too slow and we don't see his true costume soon enough and whatnot. I vehemently disagree, but not so much about this film. To be honest, I didn't really think about the time it took to see him in the "true" costume in this flick either way, but in general, movies like this are WAAAAAY too in a hurry to get to the hour-long action climax that any building of the character done pre-superhero (meaning before they are set as the character) always feels rushed.<br /><br />They didn't do that with Batman Begins, and you could tell. Here, it's kind of a mixed bag...he might not get into the full costume until later, but he becomes Captain America when the injection scene is complete, if you ask me. Anyway, I dug the pacing just fine and would like to see more action/superhero flicks paced this way.Dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03337478312308606554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-67270551334810073592011-07-30T04:49:58.915-05:002011-07-30T04:49:58.915-05:00This is a 2011 American superhero film based on th...This is a 2011 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Captain America.This Film has received generally favorable reviews from film critics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-66820867989416965802011-07-29T10:47:13.385-05:002011-07-29T10:47:13.385-05:00I thought most of the same things.

He's a rather uninteresting bloke who is basically a symbol more than anything resembling a true character. It's unfortunate for this film, but now that after the events of the final ten minutes, Whedon has some room to create and give some dimension to Rogers for THE AVENGERS.

Red Skull was totally disappointing and as a whole, the movie is just dull.Castorhttp://www.anomalousmaterial.com/movies/noreply@blogger.com
