Hey! Like, Who Promoted This Guy To The Position Of "Captain"?

Rating: 3/10 (12 October 2014)

If the Capt. America character in this picture was really supposed to exemplify the true grit of the All-American superhero (and because of his red, white & blue costume, I'm assuming that he did), then (after watching this less-than-satisfying action picture) I'd say that this dude clearly disgraced the entire American nation, big-time, with his laughable presence.
I had always been under the impression that as a pop culture icon, Capt. America was supposed to be even more representative of his nation than was the likes of Superman. But all that Capt. America succeeded in doing in this picture was to reduce American ideals, and such, to the level of being nothing but a laughing-stock, in my eyes.
Of the endless onslaught of mediocre superhero movies that have been carelessly churned out of Hollywood in this past decade, alone, I'd say that Capt. America, along with The Green Hornet, both stand tall as 2 of the most predictable, disappointing, and, yes, embarrassing productions of the entire contrived lot, bar none.
Anyways - Besides what I've already beefed about - I thought that this film's PG-13 rating didn't help matters much, either, especially when it came to story coherency and maturity.
And to say that the irksome Peggy Carter character (as the "jealous woman" angle in the story) was sickening (beyond words), would truly be a bona-fide understatement.
P.S.
I thought that the ever-creepy Tommy Lee Jones looked, even more than ever, like something straight out of The Night Of The Living Dead.
