Chris Evans. The man is destined to be a super hero, or at least a man with special abilities. We all previously saw him as Human Torch (Fantastic Four), Nick Gant (Push), Jensen (The Losers) and now we see him as Captain America. From all four, I think this is by far the best super hero movie he has ever played. Steve Rogers (Chris Evans), has a big heart, but that is not enough to join the army because in the army, big muscle is more important. But there’s a way, thanks to Abraham Erskine (Stanley Tucci), who turns skinny Steve into supersoldier. Of course, supersoldier needs a supervillain Red Skull (Hugo Weaving) and a super sexy girlfriend Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell). First of all, the story is much better than other superhero movie, it has a dimension and weight. I also like the retro vibe. CGI is also great and it’s more reality-oriented. The casts also have done a wonderful part, specially Tommy Lee Jones and Hayley Atwell. But the pace is too fast, no room for character development and makes the film falls flat. I think the best part in this movie is when the story sticks with skinny Steve. Anyway, overall, Captain America: The First Avenger is a satisfying and entertaining film.
