CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR: Reviews and discussion of the movie WITH spoilers...

[PNGwynne]

I guess I recall SW having probability-warping powers which she eventually refined to an almost-elemental level. But that was years ago. I know that that's not as easily explained or flashy as pink telekinesis, but the film concept cheapens her somehow. Just my opinion, she's one of my favorite heroines.

The actress playing her, and the hint of Vision's affection, was very appealing.

Yeah, I really liked how they're working up to that. I didn't mind Olsen in Age of Ultron, but I really liked her as Wanda here.

She's special to me too. I grew up in the 70's where as far as superhero merch went---she---NOT "Black Widow" was the "Black Canary" of the Marvel Universe---i.e. The most popular female hero who wasn't tied in too tight to any male hero's persona. So, I'm happy to see her character building in the MCU.

And written incredibly well in that you thought he was going in for the a cheesy (romantic) kill "zig" when the writers "zagged" and displayed that he was actually stopping SW from leaving.

Still digesting what I saw in Civil War. It was probably the best of the 3 Cap films so far. I am NOT a Spidey fan...but the kid was perfect and the wise arse Parker is what I like. Also the fact that he's a kid on the verge of graduating is also very appealing to me for the next reboot of Spidey. Oh...and Marissa Tomei as Aunt May was an added bonus. One more thing...can Scarlett Johansen get any HOTTER??!!?? Between the voice and the looks....DAMNNNNNN! Can't wait for the Black Widow movie

This was probably the best acting in any of the Marvel movies so far in my opinion. Probably going to have to see it again...but at a cheaper movie theater. The one I went to charged $18 for a Matinee yesterday. The least they could have done was give me a small popcorn and a small coke. Is it me or is $18 really high for a matinee these days?? I don't go to movies that often...maybe once a year. It has to be a movie I REALLY!!!!!! want to see in order for me to go.

[PNGwynne]

Wow, out here in Ohiya a 3D matinee is $8.50, regular matinees are $6.00. But my attendance rate is akin to yours.

The theater I went to is a Regal theater with 3D, IMAX, and something they call RX. RX is a step below IMAX. Don't get me wrong...the theater sound and visual was out of this world. I just think $18 is ridiculous for a movie ticket. The friend I went with wanted to go see it in 3D and I told him I'd probably end up either really sick on the verge of throwing up or have a massive migrane by the first 3rd of the movie being over. That's why we went to the RX showing.

C'mon now Best scene in the Movie Cap and Sharon Carter with Bucky and Falcon in the car

and I'm in agreement with Berto here Love Scarlett Johansen as Black Widow More and more after every movie... If they dont give her a Solo Film then defenitly a teamup with Hawkeye... "We're Still Friends Right???" "Depends on How hard you ht me!!!" Love them!

[hedrap]

...Really feels like Cap and Peggy are bound for a Forever Young/Cocoon finale in Infinity War...

[Earth 2 Chris]

I'm up for any and all Marvel films with these characters. My pal Rob Kelly suggested them doing a Marvel Team-Up film a year. Why not?

And yes, give ScarJo a frickin' movie for pete's sake!

...Really feels like Cap and Peggy are bound for a Forever Young/Cocoon finale in Infinity War...

That would be all kinds of awesome.

Yes this one and also “Can you move your seat up?”

That had me laughing pretty good.

[Hedji]

I thought it was clever that Falcon and Bucky had playful friction, as though they were each a bit jealous of the other's friendship with Cap.

Yeah, that was a fun.

[drquest]

Check this out...

[Earth 2 Chris]

Yeah, Falcon and Bucky have that whole "I don't like it when my bud's old friend comes into town/I really hate my bud's new friend hornin' in on our fun" vibe. I loved it.

Again, they remembered to LIGHTEN UP the movie in spots with scenes and interactions like these. Pay attention WB!!!
