Captain America, we salute you

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2014)

Well there it is, the second wave. I'll start off by saying that the Cap is by far and away my favorite superhero. I had such high expectations, such high hopes for this film. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Not in the slightest. Also, it is without a shadow of a doubt better than Thor: The Dark World and Iron Man 3, the other fellow prologues to the upcoming The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Dare I say, on par with The Avengers and The Dark Knight?
Moving on, a bit about the film. We find our protagonist continuing to attempt to adapt to the modern world. Find his way, find things that he can relate to. He struggles, he continues to live in the past and constantly thinks about his war-mates, and about Peggy Carter, whom he meets up with and has a heart-wrenching moment with.
Steve is reminded that he cannot trust anyone, including SHIELD themselves. He must face a familiar foe, confront old friends, and with the help of the Black Widow and new friendly, Falcon, face countless enemies and countless friends turned foes.
If Captain America: The Winter Soldier is any indication of how the upcoming Avengers film will turn out to be, then sign me right up on the hype train. An absolute incredible, moving and inspiring film. Captain America: TWS gives us its take on "cape films", and sets an all new standard.
