    Captain America: Brave New World

    ★★½

    While Anthony Mackie finally heads his own Captain America film, unfortunately the film does not deliver the movie he deserved.

    There are some good moments of action with the titular hero and Harrison Ford as Red Hulk, but the film is covered in some very flat and dull writing. The entire first act’s dialogue feels like it’s catching the audience up on the status of the MCU.

    Also you can skip the post credits scene

    Really fun watch. Some dialogue is a little clunky but overall an entertaining time in the theater.

    BIG SHOUTOUT TO THE TRAILERS AND MARKETING - that is how you not give anything away

    Hugh Grant is so captivating and so much fun in this role. Could’ve watched him in this role for much longer.

    The very idea of questioning a person’s life long devotion to an idea or belief is executed pretty well. Although the movie is very critical of religions, it is not strictly “anti” religion. 

    There is some mental gymnastics required to make the plot happen.

    Very fun, would watch again

    Feel like I lived a lifetime with Adrian Brody’s character in this film. From the very first sequence, it’s as if he’s being born again, although it’s just his escape to a new country. 

    His meticulous skills as an architect are quite captivating as he and his crew construct their 

    Super packed theater which I was not expecting from a 3 & 1/2 hour movie with an intermission. Great experience
