At least not a disappointment

Rating: Null/10 (19 October 2011)

Its hard to rate such a movie as Captain America cause its not bad but it again doesn't feel good to throw your money just for this stuff. The film is very mediocre and at any point it doesn't feel as if it tries to rise above this mediocrity. It actually lacks any punch.
Technically the movie is in right place for its character, story, action or any technical detail to name. There is an ethereal sense of continuity and hint of danger. The picture totally makes justice about the tone of the period in which the story sets in. But above all this the story doesn't go anywhere. Its hard to relate and there are no high stakes to really absorb you in the film.The middle action scenes seem more like a video game trailer as they do not much help in the narration.The film looks more like a prelude to the avengers story written off in a hurry just to fill in the gap.
Sure the script doesn't have much to say but what comes more shining on the screen is the underlying love between the captain and the damsel in uniform. Its a good chemistry and it only kept me going for the whole movie. So there is no burden on the actors to make a stand off performance and all of them pretty much impress the same.
This comic caper movie is no different than Thor which was built in pretty much in same premise but in a different realm.Both of these have pulled it good enough for there own movie but not as good as the Iron Man series. The focus was all absorbed to the scene how this captain ended up being a contemporary superhero whom we name as the Avengers. The rest of the show has to be seen later when that picture arrives and till then nobody is complaining whatever we are getting.
