Best origins movie from the Marvel Universe yet.

Rating: 10/10 (20 October 2011)

This was a great origins movie. Everything I expected from Thor and was disappointed by. This movie tells the complete story from when Steve Rogers is a 90 pound weakling trying to join the army to his awaking in modern day America. The movie perfectly balances the storyline with the action sequences all the while remaining true to the comic book story that I grew up with. They even do a great job with the love interest part of the movie, Rogers unrequited love is perfectly done for a comic book adaptation and perfectly in keeping with the tone of the 1940's in which this movie is set. The last movie I would have given such a high rating to would have been the first Matrix movie, so it's been a long while between drinks. Here's hoping that the Avengers movie is in the same vein as this rather than Thor or Iron Man (or Matrix 2).
