6 out of 10, This is seemingly a step back in the right direction for Marvel.
Anthony Mackie, while no Steve Rogers, effortlessly carries the movie and more
than holds his own with Harrison Ford, no mean task. The plot harkens back to
some earlier Marvel efforts bringing former subplot villains to the fore. The
head villain turns out to be a guy with a misshapen head and some serious anger
issues. There are the usual plots within plots which culminate with Ford
becoming the Red Hulk and destroying part of the White House. I saw a very
funny quite saying Ford was only the second most rage filled US President of
recent history. I enjoyed the action but it still didn’t have the magic of some
of the original Marvel movies. A diminutive female security chief was a clear
miss, don’t know what the casting director was thinking there. An enjoyable
action flick.
MVP:
Mackie as the new Cap
