Cap'n was always a problematic character for me when I went through my comic phase... the most enjoyment I ever got out of his series was when they made a new one with a new suit and he kind of self-destructed under the pressure. Anyway, this was handled pretty well with what I thought was a nice mix of action and story. The supporting cast are of a surprising caliber (Stanley Tucci, Tommy Lee Jones, Toby Jones) and all in all I felt it could have been a lot worse. Of course, all these movies kind of get a pass because they load up the hype toward the Avengers film. This one doesn't even have a cool little after-the-credits scene (although the last scene totally could've been after the credits) but a full-fledged trailer for The Avengers. I sure hope that's good because if it isn't, the entire Marvel house of cards kind of comes tumbling down. |
