At first I gave it an 8/10. In my rating system that means: entertaining, keeps my attention, not an awesome plot but not a bad one either.

Then, after having watched it, I started watching it again. That never happens. I never watch a series twice in a row. That means something caught my eye in a way other series don't.

It's not difficult to guess why I ended up loving the series. The interaction between the bionic gazing machine and goggleman is hilarious. It's a dynamic that elevates the otherwise mediocre plot.

Before, I never cared much for the Falcon character. Honestly there isn't much to tell about him and actually there still isn't. As for the Winter Soldier: the movies never did much justice to his horrible background. On top of that I never had much need for the Captain America character to be revived in another form. Now, I would love to see more of them.

Many people take offense to the racial storyline. Honestly I think there's a lot of soul gazing that has to be done here. Don't dismiss it as a theme that doesn't belong in Marvel. Racism is a real thing that needs to be addressed. But those who take the message in the movie as a way to make their wrongs right should also be aware that racism works both ways and doesn't justify every action...
