Great Film, But Very Underwhelming

Rating: 6/10 (8 May 2016)

Best comic book movie ever? Yeah, right.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was a far better film than Captain America: Civil War.
Zemo was completely underused in this film. In the comics, he was a very manipulative man, like in the film, but is a very skilled fighter and can go toe-to-toe and hold his own against Captain America. In this, he was basically a terrorist, who was out for revenge. Very original. With Lex Luthor in BvS, he wanted to destroy Superman, both physically and mentally, and he wanted absolute power with it as well. They wasted the potential for Zemo in this film.
The story overall was very well done, like it's predecessor, The Winter Soldier, but it could've been so much better. It didn't feel like Civil War, it felt more like a school yard brawl. The action sequences were great though. I loved them, but action doesn't make a film great. They barely touched on the original storyline, and just took the title, "Civil War", and slapped it under Captain America. Like Marcel Tim said, "Should have called this Winter Soldier 2 to be honest." In BvS, Lex made Superman look more like a threat to Batman. That was better executed than Zemo in this film.
It seems Marvel/Disney is coughing up money to the critics and give this film acclaim. What every critic is saying about Civil War are complete exaggerations. I think MCU films are losing steam.
