Captain America: The Winter Soldier

I jumped on the bandwagon following the advice of critics and fans alike on Rotten Tomatoes and saw the new Capt. America movie. FIrst off, make sure to re-watch the first one. I forgot pretty much everything and, though it wasn't extremely important, there were some things you'll want a refresher on. The movie takes place in the present, C.A. is trying to stay fit and active, he's an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D, but disgruntled, and Black Widow is still his Wing-woman. He isn't happy with S.H.I.E.L.D. witholding information, etc. from him and Nick Fury remains the same guy he always has been. Things take awhile to get crazy, but they certainly go batshit insane, and it's pretty cool. I can't throw any spoilers, but the chaos is pretty cool. Sam Jackson, ScarJo, Chris Evans, and Cobie Smulders (ROBIN SCHERBOTZKY from HIMYM!) are joined by Anthony Mackie of Hurt Locker fame and Sebastian Stan playing the WINTER SOLDIER, a relative unknown who I thought was excellent. Cast is solid, story was unique and pretty cool actually. It still had a few moments where you can't help but question them, like all action/superhero movies, but thre aren't too many and they are manageable. I recommend not reading much/watching trailers beforehand. There could be potential spoilers you'll want to avoid, though I feel like it did a pretty good job of avoiding that. Bottom Line: 8.2 out of 10. Probably higher than I'd normally put it, but it was a refreshingly unique story off the old tales of Capt. America that I was surprised about, so I was entertained for 2.5 hours and that warrants a pretty high rating. I didn't see it in 3D, but I can't imagine it making a big difference. It's worth seeing in theatres if you're looking to go see something since most other things currently playing aren't too special.
