Pulp Film

Rating: 8/10 (30 January 2020)

Captain America plays like a tribute to the great pulp novels. The film knows the novelty and I enjoyed the film. When you look back at the phase one films, this is quite unique and delivers on the campy beats of the era. Hollywood has been attempting pulp heroes, but this is one of the best because it embraces the character. The ending in particular is moving because the storyline and characters delivered. It won't be to everyone's taste, but if you enjoyed the comics and novels of the era, you'll enjoy what Marvel delivered. Underappreciated film.
