    A step in the right direction, but still falls short.

    It felt like a true Marvel movie with all the clichés and not a very deep story. The film was enjoyable, but that's about all.

    Looking at the story and the references made, I would consider this more of a late Hulk sequel than a Captain America movie.

    Good acting and cinematography, loved the lighting and colour grading especially.

    Although the movie was great, it felt like the director almost went a bit too much into the cinematography and trying to be different. The forced pause in the movie (although nice with the timer for in the theater), and the use of some unusual/unfitting music were the prime examples of this. It felt…
