Captain America: The Winter Soldier: Best Marvel Phase 2 Film, or Best Marvel Film Period?
"Suspenseful and politically astute, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is a superior entry in the Avengers canon and is sure to thrill Marvel diehards."
Chockfull of the breathless cliffhangers dictated by the genre, but equally rich in the quiet, tender character moments that made the first film unique among recent Marvel fare.
Bounds along excitingly, keeping viewers guessing, launching some successful switcheroos and bringing real stakes to the game. The end results should reverberate throughout the big- and small-screen Avengers universe.
Chockfull of the breathless cliffhangers dictated by the genre, but equally rich in the quiet, tender character moments that made the first film unique among recent Marvel fare.
High energy martial arts choreography and humour by way of slick one-liners are in plentiful supply too, and as expected, the film is non-stop dizzying action designed to propel teenage boys into comic-book heaven.
The result is a blockbuster with a brain and a superhero movie that feels ripped not from a comic book so much as today's headlines.
Chris Evans is a perfect fit for the Captain America role -- charming, square-jawed, and witty rather than giddy, he provides a solid anchor for the other characters to fly around.
From Scarlett Johansson's wonderfully sultry femme fatale Black Widow to Robert Redford's self-satisfied politician and Samuel L Jackson's tough and sardonic Nick Fury, the film benefits from performances that combine camp with conviction.
Marvel fans will be left writhing with pleasure.
This sequel fully displays the exciting power that Marvel's Phase Two is capable of.
Even better than The Avengers.sigpic

Caught the movie last week on opening day in the UK.
Man, was I impressed. This is one of the best Marvel movies so far.
Part political thriller, part all out comic book action spectacular.
Some have complained that the movie is too long, but that's not true at all... it absolutely flew by, real edge of your seat stuff.
(Great mid-credits stinger too, setting up some very well known characters for the next Avengers outing.)
Sure, it had a few points which rankled me as a die-hard Marvel comics fan, but when the movie was so consistently strong in most departments, those could be forgiven for the most part.
Highly recommended.PUNY HUMANS!Comment
