Immediate Response: Captain America- Brave New World (2025)

 At long last, I've got the time to go see this in a Theater.

Let's do this!


The Good
* The Plot is solid, with a Story that apes The Winter Soldier in many good ways.
* I love Captain America's new outfit, and his new Falcon is quite fun as well.
* Sam Wilson gets a nice arc and it is really well-acted by Anthony Mackie.
* Harrison Ford is a great addition too.
* The Film finally pays off many dangling plot threads, from The Eternals to The Incredible Hulk.
* Red Hulk was worth the wait.  He's not in it much, but he is great when he's there.
* The aerial Scenes look really good.  Well done.


The Bad
* The Film doesn't *quite* give you full context for the main Villain (which is from a mostly forgotten Film).  Nor does it explain how there's a Celestial body growing in the Indian Ocean.
* Not everyone is going to live the Villain's design.  I've seen mixed takes on it.
* Needs more Giancarlo Esposito.
* The Film goes sort of political, but also takes no stand on, well, anything.  Just commit!


All in all, I really enjoyed this one.  I'm one of those guys who doesn't think that Marvel has really suffered quality wise all that much, so bear in mind that 'I'm a fanboy.'

That or just, you know, read and decide for yourself.
