Warming up for The Avengers

Rating: 7/10 (28 June 2016)

Captain America:The First Avenger is the fifth movie in the MCU franchise and it's a bridge to the final movie in Phase One of MCU, the one five movies have been building up to, The Avengers.
This movie is slightly above average, but it's still nothing remarkable. It's fun, it's very good looking and they nailed the retro feeling. The casting of the hero is perfect once again and Chris Evans plays the role very believable and at the beginning of the movie, when Steve Rogers a.k.a. Captain America is still all tiny and skinny, I couldn't believe it. It looked so realistic and then suddenly he's huge, but it looked so believable I didn't suspect it for a second. Hugo Weaving is as good as he is in any other villain role and we all know he plays those quite often. And there is also a slight connection to Thor, the Tesseract. And it all just builds up to The Avengers and this movie is probably ignored by many because by that moment people just wanted the avengers to assemble already. And also, one more thing about this movie is that if you're not familiar with the comics, there is a big plot twist waiting for you at the end.
This movie is fine, it doesn't really have much flaws in my opinion, but it's just nothing impressive really. I don't even have much to talk about this one, so I guess that proves it.
