A disappointing film.

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2011)

I wasn't really hype to see this film, instead I was more interested to see how they were going to show his fall into suspended animation. This film however was a disappointment. but is was mostly due to poor writing and the lack of using all the source material they had to use. We never see Rogers train in martial Arts in fact after his transformation he is automatically a great soldier who single handily pull off an infiltration into the headquarters of Hydra. Having serve time in the military I can assure you this would be impossible for anyone who isn't bulletproof.
Understand Captain America has no superhuman powers but because of the Super-Soldier Serum his strength, endurance, agility, speed, reflexes, durability, and healing are at the highest limits of natural human potential. In other words he could be killed by a regular bullet as attempted in "The Death of Captain America" storyline.
With that this film lack the same thing as the Green Lantern film. The training of Steve Rogers. How cool would it have been to have Steve Train with Sgt Nick Fury. As a fan of comics it is widely known that Nick Fury took the infinity serum which stop his aging. Having Nick Fury as a sparring partner in at least one scene or montage would have added to the films credibility. Instead Steve becomes the ultimate fighter and tactician with just the super soldier serum. He plans the strategy for the colonel???
The actors were great and Hayley Atwell does an awesome Job as Peggy Carter and Steve's love interest. Hugo Weaving as always was brilliant as the Red Skull and Chris Evans was acceptable as Steve Rogers. There also was little action for a wartime movie, much of which is seen in the trailers.
The best part of this film was the Avengers clips they show at the end of the film. Overall I give this film a C+/B- at best.
