Captain America – Civil War

 

Captain America – Civil War 2016

  • Director: Russo & Russo
  • Based on book: no
  • Cast: Chris Evans and a lot of others, you know who they are
  • Personal “oh yeah him/her” reaction, i.e. have seen this actor in:
    • same
  • Why? The 15th.
  • Seen: 4 February 2025      

       The Avengers are having trouble because in trying to save people, people get killed and our heroes all have bad consciences. But do they want to answer to the UN?

       There’s a lot of same-old same-old but new depth to the characters, new characters, new complexity in the political.

       Captain A is still my least favourite, not even because he’s kind of the bad guy here with his ‘I can do it all by myself because I am right’ arrogance. Violent goody goody two shoes. Nope. I don’t like him. Funnily, Ant-Man is my other least favourite. I don’t like anyone on Captain A’s team.

       But I like the film because of Tony and Natasha and T’Challa and Peter Parker. The good guys. Flawed good guys.
