My review of Captain American the Winter Soldier
Intro: I want to thank the Marvel community for spoiling the identity of the Winter Soldier for everyone who don't read comic books. It doesn't make you look smart, it makes you look like an axxhole.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier: This movie takes place two years after the events in The Avengers, and Steve Rogers/Captain America tries to adjust to modern times. Meanwhile, a S.H.I.E.L.D. member is attacked, and this puts Captain America in the middle of a conspiracy that could put the whole world at risk. With the help of Black Widow and a new ally, Steve Rogers tries to expose this conspiracy before it's too late.
This is the best MCU movie I've seen so far! The reason why I feel this way about this movie is because it focuses on telling a story, not telling jokes or world-building. This movie doesn't feel like a comic book movie; it feels like a spy thriller. I'm surprised at how this movie is connected to the last one because I wasn't expecting that. This movie handled three villains well; we have one doing the grunt work, one is the brain, and the other is doing PR. The theme of the movie is trust. Can we trust our Government to keep us safe without taking away our freedom? This theme also helps build suspense in the movie because we don't know who's involved in the conspiracy.

I'm impressed with what this movie has done with Steve Rogers/Captain America. He's a loyal soldier who's tired of being manipulated by Nick Fury. I appreciate that the creators didn't make the cliche fish-out-of-water jokes with him because we already got some of that in the Avengers. We do feel sorry for him due to the world not being so black and white as he remembered, and a scene where he visits someone from his past.
We see a different side of Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow; she's a little more sarcastic in this movie. Her dynamic with Steve is cool considering their different backgrounds.
Nick Fury is more or less the same; however, he plays a big role in this movie, and we learn more about him and why he's the way he is. The only complaint I have with him is what the writers have done with him.
Sam Wilson/Falcon is a supporting character who has much in common with Steve.
The Winter Soldier is menacing and cool. He reminds me of Darth Maul from Star Wars. I'm surprised at how he parallels with Steve Rogers. The only complaint I have with him is that I'm surprised that he didn't have a big role in the movie, considering that his name is in the title of the movie.
The only problem I have with this movie ( besides Hawkeye not being in the movie) is that I find it hard to believe that this conspiracy can exist. You'll understand what I mean when you watch the movie. All in all, this is an outstanding movie that will affect the MCU. I would recommend it if you like spy thrillers.
Rating = Treasure Chest
