    Craptain America

    Nowhere near enough here to keep me invested apart from a 5 minute fight scene and Giancarlo Esposito when he was on screen like 3 times.

    The villain sucks and honestly why didn’t they just have Giancarlo be the bad guy cos he can actually act convincingly enough. But even if that was the case, it doesn’t save an incredibly flat marvel film and it’s obvious they wanted to ship this one out as soon as possible.

    I honestly wanted to like this more, maybe I’ll watch it again and my mind will change.

    You do get the feeling you are out there in that sort of eery part of space with the characters. The set design and visuals are great for the time they were made in, and the practical effects are fantastic.

    I know this was a benchmark for horror and cinema too, but I just never felt the suspense I thought I would and wasn’t that satisfied with the ending completely.
