Captain America The First Avenger

Captain America The First Avenger is your average marvel studio film.

It has the exact same story line you have seen in many marvel movies before this one, the only difference being is that this film has some qualities to it that don't make you write it of completely.

Chris Evans did a pretty good job as captain America.

I have to admit I was really skeptical about going to see this movie because I despise Chris Evans completely. I find him cocky and full of himself but he was okay in this film.

Now on to the plot of the movie.

The film started off on a good track with us getting to know Steve Rodgers and his story of wanting to serve his country, but due to how small and inadequate he is he is denied several times from being able to enlist.

He then is selected to become a super human model for his comrades in the army. This is where the movie starts to flake a little.

His whole physical appearance is changed so he can become an idol for all those serving in the war, pretty much he becomes an advertisement for World War II.

I was disappointed with the second part of the movie because all we get were bits and pieces of Captian America in Action. I found that really disappointing.

As for the Villain Red Skull, yeah I've seen better.

He didn't portray any of the villainous traits, he was just a big wuss with a skull for a face and a gun. That was all he brought to the table, Oh and I can't forget to mention the big futuristic plane he spends the whole movie in.

 And the way he is destroyed is just plain STUPID! I wanted a smack down not what the director offered.

Oh well. That's all I have to say on the matter. You can go see this movie if you want but its not that great. The Acting was average, the writing at points was corny and the movie felt to rushed.

I didn't feel like I had a reason to care about any of the characters, especially the love story between Steve and Peggie. I didn't feel a need to root for them to make it as a couple. They exchange a few conversations with each other but nothing to make you ooh or awe.

To be honest I think Peggy is way shallow. To make my point she had no interest in Steve when he was a skinny wimp but wait as soon as he was magically given his new body she was all over him like white on rice.

Captain America did have some entertaining parts to it, but the story itself isn't anything new.

I give this one an C-
