As cap continues to adjust to his new modern day life he finds himself in the middle of a compromised shield.

This is arguably the best MCU film. It is extremely well made and one of the most grounded films in the franchise. Having a film like this seem so grounded is great because it allows the Russo brothers to use a lot less CGI in their action scenes. The action in this movie are great and as I said in my review of the first Captain America, Cap is one of the most fun characters to watch in action scenes.

Chris Evans is amazing as Cap, Scarlett Johansson is great, but the stand out for me was Anthony Mackie as the newly introduced Flacon. Mackie does a great job of being this comedic relief but also being this serious and stern person.

The Winter Soldier is one of the best villains in the MCU. He is extremely entertaining to watch in action scenes and has a intriguing story. I also really enjoyed Robert Redford who does a great job of being this dark political figure.

In terms of gripes there is a scene that felt much different from the rest of the film because of how unrealistic it was. In addition the scene is just one long information dump which definitely should have been explained in a different way.

Overall I love this film. With great characters, entertaining action, and a intriguing plot Captain America: The Winter Soldier is one of the best MCU films.

9.5/10.
