Captain America the winter soldier (2014) review

The next film I have rewatched heading to age of Ultron is the captain America sequel winter soldier and this film is everything that I always wanted it to be and is excellent.

The premise of this film sees captain America return in modern day as he teams up with black widow, Nick fury and falcon to take down the mysterious winter soldier and solve a conspiracy.

Now there was some controversy when Chris Evans was cast as captain America because of his previous ties with the fantastic four franchise but I am so happy that he was chosen for this role. He is the perfect Steve Rodgers as he is just such A great character but is also an awesome action star which makes him one of the best characters in film at the moment.

The supporting cast is also fantastic, Scarlett Johansson returns as the black widow and her character is given much more to do in this film and her character is given more morality questions and more backstory for the audience to really care about her character. Samuel L Jackson returns as Nick fury and the same can be said about him with his character being expanded on and once again making him so much more interesting. Anthony Mackie debuts as Sam Wilson the falcon and he is the character that connects with the captain the most because he is an ex army veteran and his chemistry with Evans makes the relationship feel unique. Robert Redford is a high ranking member of shield and he is great in the film and his character is really interesting in the film. The funny thing about the character of the winter soldier is that he is great in the action scene and he fit well in with the story but he Wasn't in the film that much for you to care that much about him.

The story could have been simple with captain America just going after the winter soldier but the directors felt that wasn't enough and made the story more unique and interesting then anybody expected. The story takes a twist that nobody expected and it has had huge implications on the whole marvel cinematic universe.

The script was great with the drama mixing with comedy provided these characters with interesting dialogue that made them feel unique and interesting characters that you care about.

The style was what I dreamed of, this is one of the best spy/action films I ever seen with all the action being crisp and memorable that will make this film the epic film it is.

This film is absolutely epic and will go down as one of the best comic book films of all time.
