Well Done, Marvel!!! A Total Must Watch!!!

by pictouch

At first, I was reluctant to see this movie, since Chris Evans was playing Captain: America. Now after watching the movie, I have to say, this movie has done great justice to the protagonist! In fact, it's 10x better than Thor and The Green Lantern. The acting was far superb than I imagined. The female protagonist, who has a love interest for Captain:America, showed great acting! The story line is well done, but the beginning lacks a bit(slows a bit,k and takes 30 min. for the good stuff to happen). The love interest was very good. It wasn't clique or smutty like The Green Lantern. Instead, you can see the love unfold between the protagonist without any kisses or affection. The ending leaves out room for another sequel, and trust me, it's worth the wait!!! Marvel has finally gave the audience a movie that is worth the watch!

WOW Captain America!

by peaceout13

I thought that this was an amazing movie and would definitely go see it again!
The action was so..... Everywhere that it had to keep you on the edge of your seat!

The actors were chosen well and fit their parts. It had a good plot and the scenes are incredible! The only part i found a little bit cheesy was when Captain America is rushing off to go fight bad guys and the "hero" lady makes him give her a kiss. Kinda classic, Kinda cheesy.

But overall I thought it was a great movie and would see it again!

Love the Avenger!

by JustLuvMovies

I loved Iron-Man so I was hooked on all the "Avenger" hero type movies. Iron-Man (1) was my favorite...so have to see Captain America, the First Avenger. Pretty good (not great) and worth seeing. I cant wait for the "Avengers".

The First Avenger!!

by catcam2000

I really enjoyed this movie. Saw this during one of our "date nights" with my husband. I'm usually the one dragging him to see these movies (I love the comic hero/ine movies) but he enjoyed this one as well. It was really well done granted I've never read any of the CA comics (but I knew his story). The ending to me was really bittersweet but it sets up for the next Avengers movie really well. Can't wait for the next one!

Grade: C

I must admit, I do appreciate the burning patriotism embedded in the film. I guess this is one of those movies where you have to be a die hard Marvel fan to enjoy it. Unfortunately, I'm not that person. The slow developed beginning and baffling ending are what really dissapointed me, and there were some parts where I felt like I was in a history class rather than a movie theater.

A solid effort at 'The First Avenger'

by mtknightdog

The first 30 minutes were perfect, but once he became an official solider and the montage of them taking over the bases was shown, the story started losing its steam and cut itself short.
Still a very decent movie and worthy stepping-stone to the Avengers.
(Though I really hope they pick up the first half hour "A hero comes from inside"-type character-based storyline from this one and continue/ expand it in Cap's other film appearances. Yes, He saved the day by playing hero and all, but that thread of the story was never really official given closure.)
