Craptain America...

Rating: 2/10 (18 January 2012)

One would think, given the Gung Ho attitude of most mainstream filmmakers and video game programmers, that a movie based on the exploits of a Super Soldier would rate the highest fealty. Guess not. What we've got here is a cgi knockoff of a comic book that's actually far superior to the cinematic version. Not that that hasn't happened before: as of late, comic book characters have been regularly getting reamed royally by Hollywood honchos. Even the comic creators themselves don't seem to think twice about tossing their creations to the wolves. CAPTAIN America was one of the heroes I grew up with, so I can't help but cringe when I sit through a stinker like this one.
