Review: Captain American 2: The Winter Soldier



So I haven't blogged in a while and I apologize for that, I've been very busy with school the last two weeks or so, but now I have time again.  So I'd like to do a little review of the new Captain America movie.  However there may be *SPOILERS* if you have not seen it or read the comics, I didn't put very many in, but there are one or two.  So please, if you are going to see it and you want to go in knowing absolutely nothing, please do not read the next paragraph of this post, skip to the one after it (starting with "The actors"). 


Has SPOILERS
I am an avid watcher of super hero movies, I absolutely love them, well most of them.  This one is in fact another one I truly enjoyed.  The story was very good, I liked that throughout the whole movie he not only faced the fight against the winter soldier, but he also faced an internal struggle.  Was everything that he was doing to S.H.E.I.L.D. really worth it, were they really doing what was right and just?  And who could he really trust?  With everything he was learning throughout the journey was he really doing what needed to be done for the safety of the American people or was he just a pawn for a bigger scheme that would go against everything he fought for?  As he also copes with the loss of a friend. 


Doesn't Have Spoilers
The actors do a fantastic job portraying the emotions of the characters as they go on the emotional roller coaster that is this chapter of their lives.  I always love watching a good fight scene and there are many great ones in this movie.  The fight scenes are very riveting and fast-paced with complex movement but are still easily watched without wondering what they're doing.  The effects were also very well done and it was all around a very good movie.  I hope that if you go see it then you like it as much as I did.
