I knew this movie would be good. I knew it from the moment I saw the preview. What I couldn't have imagined was how good it would be
First off and most notably, it eschews most of the modern tropes for super hero movies. This movie is pure idealism, and that works very much in its favor. And that's not to say that it doesn't try to look at some of the issues the good cap would have, just that it makes them subtle and keeps them from detracting from the movie, or causing a cliche-fest.
The characters in this movie are all very likable, and while some didn't get a whole lot of time to develop, the ones that did were able to do so in a realistic and interesting fashion. As for those who didn't, they at least have a feel of realism to them and an air of badass.
The fight scenes are brilliantly choreographed, and the special effects are (usually, the vaporization ray looked a little...off) top notch.
The film did have its problems. The movie isn't the best paced movie out there. It feels like it ran a bit too long and at the same time, the ending was a bit rushed. It can also get a bit goofy sometimes, but its never a deal breaker. None of these faults are enough to be.
The bottom line is that this is a must see movie and an excellent addition to the Avengers canon. Overall, I give this film a 8.5/10 (great)
...Its really good.
