I've enjoyed Marvel movies, so I thought I would enjoy this. While I liked parts of it, as others have mentioned in their reviews, I couldn't get past the political garbage they kept throwing in there. First of all, almost no one in this country would have a problem with a black Captain America because of the color of his skin. But, the movie implies that there are enough white supremacists in this country where they need to have some kind of blatant counter narrative to educate white folks. They dip back to the sins of the past and bring them forward as if this the same country as it was back then. Almost no one who would be watching this movie was alive back then. I was for the tail end, and we've moved past all of that, although the media and Hollywood keep doing their best to pull us back in to those times. They are the ones trying to divide us. Unfortunately, it looks like Hollywood and now Disney has bought into Critical Race Theory, so they must assume that all white people are oppressors, even if they are not aware of it, and thus need to be educated about their white privilege. That theory also says all minorities are oppressed and are victims, even if they are not aware of it or do not feel oppressed. Stop it Disney! Don't ruin your TV shows and movies.

That being said, I don't think Sam should have been the heir to the Captain America shield and name, and it has nothing to do with the color of his skin. I don't think John Walker should have been either. I don't like the idea of a Captain America that has normal human powers. Bucky should have been the guy. He was the obvious and best choice. He's a super-soldier like Steve Rogers, he is from the same era, and like Sam, he was also Roger's friend (although for a lot longer). Thinking that a normal person could train and have the skills and reflexes necessary to handle that shield the way Rogers did takes away the mystique of Captain America. But, political correctness won the day. I guess being able to expertly fly some amazingly cool wings, being an exceptional "mortal" fighter, an outstanding person, and having a cool name like Falcon just wasn't enough.
