Captain America: The Worst Avenger

Rating: 1/10 (31 December 2019)

*As you can guess from the title and rating I didn't really enjoy this movie. But please don't let this review stop you from enjoying the film if you did because this is just my opinion and I wanted to have a bit of fun (this is my way of enjoying things I don't like). I mean no offence to anyone who enjoyed or took part in making this film.*
I will not bother talking about all of the gripes I have about this film for 3 reasons:
1. Because if I did, this review would be longer than the script for Avengers: Endgame.
2. I haven't seen this movie since 2016 or something so I have forgotten a few details required for a full in-depth review. What I do remember though is this movie was so violently boring, I could not bear to sit through it a second time.
3. This movie is not worth enough of my time to warrant that kind of review anyway.

I have never been a Captain America fan but I at least understand that making the film take place during the second world war is an important part of setting up the character. Unfortunately, as a WW2 film it just makes me groan.
The way WW2 is depicted in this film is just insulting. I mean, these guys are supposed to be 'elite Nazis' or whatever and the worst thing they do is shoot a couple of people (and most of the shooting is done with magic guns that most likely don't even kill their victims). In fact I'm pretty sure Captain America has a higher kill count than the entirety of HYDRA. I get the whole superhero flare, but this is just polishing one of the most horrific events in history to a whole new level.
So as a WW2 film, it is a complete and utter disgrace. As a superhero film, It doesn't do a much better job.
The movie doesn't give you a lot of reason to like the captain besides the fact that he has a 'good heart' or something. Even then, I feel like he is just an annoying *little* patriotic rat who cannot live without a war. Wait, is this guy supposed to be the hero? {stares into the distance with the 'visible confusion' Obi-Wan meme in the background}. I mean it's great that he wants to serve his country in the war, but his motivations just feel wrong and I am not quite comfortable with the fact that America's 'greatest' hero is some little boy who wants to die for his own pride. Also, at the beginning of the movie he says something along the lines of "I don't want to kill anyone" yet... {commence montage of Captain America killing more people than the 'bad guys' do}. I just am not a fan of his character at all.
Another thing I hated about the film was his romance with agent Carter. I just found it awkward that this little runt who seems to be all about 'THE GLORY OF WAR!' now also wants to impress his crush by... dying? Okay movie, you do you. I don't have to watch it again (thankfully).

So to conclude:
If you want to watch a WW2 film, go watch Saving Private Ryan or something. In fact, Indiana Jones probably gives a more respectful representation of the second world war.
If you want to watch a Captain America origin story then be my guest, you may enjoy (or have enjoyed) it - I can't decide that for you. All I can say is that I don't like Captain America, I don't like this movie and I will never sit through it again.
