Like Superman, Cap is one more superhero who should’ve stayed on the printed page. Marvel are to be admired for their adherance to continuity with the other movies, but a massive bloke in a bright red white and blue costume – in a combat situation – just looks daft, regardless of how they make an effort to spin it. Soldiers wear camouflage for a reason y’know.
I was definitely nervous, but they did a great job with this 1. The main weaknesses were Captain America’s “team”, which amounted to an ensemble of stereotypes, and despite the retro-feel it felt far more G.I. Joe than Indiana Jones, with the HYDRA soldiers safely dehumanised behind black masks. But they’re minor quibbles – the performances and film itself are incredibly superior, specially the last scene.
