Funny and Though Not Excellent, Great Captain America

Rating: Null/10 (18 October 2011)

Chris Evans does a great and believable job as the title role. As a sickly, weak, but determined young man named Steve Rogers, he wants to enter into the military and serve his country. But when a German doctor played wonderfully by Stanley Tucci loves his determination.
He gives Steve a chance to prove what all he is made of. Not just in body but in the doctor's words, heart and soul. And when the doctor gets assassinated while testing this on him. Steve manages to nab the German agent who kills his beloved doctor, mentor, and friend.
This agent is working for the Red Skull, played by always great to be baddie, Hugo Weaving. At first Captain America, is used in a show which Steve really doesn't like. As he rather be on the battle field. And travels in the USO. But when he feels that the troops are in trouble, he disobeys orders from his gruff yet sympathetic CO played by Tommy Lee Jones. And he is believer as the Colonel.
Captain America really starts to come to life. And he becomes a natural leader. His sidekick and love interest like one of the OP says, is tougher and older. But she does also have a soul.
This is funny though not excellent but still, a great movie. Great acting and a script. For teenage boys would love this. As it is their kind of movie. My nephews loved this movie a lot. If you are a fan of comic books and Marvel.
CA will also be with other superheroes like Thor and Ironman in the Avengers coming out in May 2012.
