--------------------------------------------------------------

Beautifully capturing the spirit of the 1940’s, I love the optimistic tone of this movie.
Chris Evans brings humility and sincerity to Steve Rogers and the effects used before he is transformed are quite amazing!
He really looks the part as Captain America and once he's done with the marketing part of war he proves he can beat the bad guys at their own game.
Hugo Weaving really plays up his villainous role and looks quite unnerving as Red Skull!
Hayley Atwell is effortlessly charming as one of the few female officers holding her own in a man's battlefield and I really like Dominic Cooper as Howard Stark. Sebastian Stan, Stanley Tucci and Tommy Lee Jones also give excellent performances.
One of my favourite things about all of these pre-Avengers films is the small visual or spoken moments that connect each movie and I like that this one ends with Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury propositioning Steve for his next mission.
A very enjoyable movie; Captain America proves that it sucks to be a bully...
