Action
Starring Chris Evans, Tommy Lee Jones, Hugo Weaving
I've never been into comic books, so all of these superhero movies - Spiderman, Batman, Superman, Iron Man - I had never heard of some of their stories until Marvel and DC Comics got movie contracts and made every comic book geek jump for joy. Being unfamiliar with the Captain America story, I was unsure how the movie was going to make a guy who runs around in a blue leotard with a patriotic shield a hero. I thought the same thing about Thor and his hammer.
The story line is okay but I think the real reason for the film was to get the public ready for The Avengers coming out next year. I think the makers of The Avengers made all the other movie(Thor, Iron Man, Hulk, etc) and then said, "oh crap, we forgot about Captain America! Quick! Put a hot actor with nice pecks in a skin tight costume!"
This movie does make me excited for The Avengers film that has an ALL STAR cast including Samuel L Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Robert Downey Jr, Mark Ruffalo, Gwyneth Paltrow...must I continue? Okay I will...Jeremy Renner, Paul Bettany, Mark Ruffalo. Can't wait!
Reel Recommendation: Must see as it is a pre-requisite for The Avengers
