A sequel well worth watching...

Rating: 7/10 (30 July 2014)

"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" was a step up from the 2011 movie "Captain America: The First Avenger".
This is a great combination of action and special effects, and actually spiced up with a proper storyline that proved entertaining and also has the audience at a bit of guessing game as well. The plot line was very nice and well thought through, and it had several layers to it, which made for a more complex and enjoyable movie experience.
The action sequences are great and they are filmed equally great. Lots of great fighting, adrenalin-filled action and testosterone.
The acting throughout the movie was good as well. And it was actually surprisingly nice to see Robert Redford in a role such as the one he has in this movie.
One thing I don't understand, though, is that you have a guy running around with a shield, why doesn't the goons and villains just shoot at his exposed legs? No, they have to shoot directly at an impenetrable shield of course. It just doesn't make any sense.
Ah well, for a movie in the super hero genre, then the Captain America movies are actually some of the better and more enjoyable, as it is fairly devoid of super-human powers.
"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" provides good entertainment and if you enjoyed the first movie, then you should most definitely watch this one as well.
