The First Avenger Reviewed

Rating: 8/10 (9 August 2011)

Just saw Chris Evans helm the role of the first Avenger, and I must say it was more than entertaining. I immediately got sucked into the movie, leaving no prisoners around. Seeing Steve Rogers as a little puny, yet gutsy guy was one of the best moments, somehow it gave more character to the legend. Even my initial fear of a gimmicky Red Skull was proved wrong, Hugo Weaving and the make-up artists did a great job. Although I did always imagined Johan Schmidt to have a thick German accent. Either way, the story, the pace, the supporting cast (Tommy Lee Jones was a brilliant pick), and the eye candy SFX made it all into one of Marvel Studios proudest moments. Can't wait to see Avengers.
