- Captain America: The First Avenger will focus on the early days of the Marvel Universe when Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) volunteers to participate in an experimental program that turns him into the Super Soldier known as Captain America. As Captain America, Rogers joins forces with Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) and Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) to wage war on the evil HYDRA organization, led by the villainous Red Skull (Hugo Weaving.)
- This is a tough one. I really wanted to like this movie. However, I expected it to be not so good. I was not a fan of casting Chris Evans as Captain America. The trailer gave me a pretty big "eh" feeling, but I always loved Captain America growing up. Like I said, I really wanted to like it. The movie ended up being kind of middle of the road for me. Chris Evans wasn't that bad although I still can't for the life of me see him "leading" The Avengers. It was entertaining, but I definitely feel like they kind of mailed it in overall. You can say that it was because of them trying to make it all 1940s nostalgia-like but it still looked really cheesy, especially the effects. So sick of saying this, but . . . . It could have been better.
- I would lukewarmly reccomend this movie. It's watchable and entertaining, but is easily the weakest of The Avengers lead-ins. It felt alot more like Green Lantern than the Marvel series of films.
