Captain America: Brave New World

This one stunk but could have been a lot better. There’s definitely concepts of a good movie, but every good moment drowns in a sea of slop. Also I still want a Red Hulk skin in Marvel Rivals. Also also Death to Israel, 1.5/5

6.9 - I guess my rating is looking kind of high, but I’ve just accepted that the MCU needs to exclusively be “shut my brain off & don’t judge it too harshly” media now.

First, it’s more of a sequel to “The Incredible Hulk” than it is a Captain America story, which is fine but I just don’t care for (or really clearly remember) that movie. It’s just hard to throw a sequel out 17 years later.

Second, its biggest issue is one that the MCU has struggled with a lot, & that’s tone consistency. When this is a classic Cap espionage & political thriller like “Winter Soldier” or “Civil War,” it’s pretty engaging. It ties up some loose ends. It has a bit of suspense. And there’s some really fun action. But then it’s broken up awkwardly with poor attempts at humor & excessive exposition to attempt to make up for the 17 year gap. And the visuals are overall just ok especially compared to some of the best of The Infinity Saga.

It’s clear that extensive delays & rewrites hurt this. But there’s enough there to service MCU fans & it’s short enough to not feel like a chore. And those are wins that the MCU should take.

Criminally underrated to say the least as the action is fully refined to the upmost degree making it feel like classic marvel is back in town. Loved every bit, not to mention the fact they ended it with a Kendrick Lamar song . Overall 9.1/10 may be cinema bias but phenomenal

I tried so bad to like it enough, but it's a 50/50 movie, I don't think it added much to marvel's word apart the replacement of captain America.

Was fun to watch

$180 million budget for crap. Fight scenes sucked, CGI sucked, plot sucked. The Batman had the same budget and had a 10000 x better movie
