Did you rate it higher? I think CA:TFA holds up very well with multiple viewings.

I did - gave it a 7 and the sequels 6's. Best Marvel films so far are the first Avengers (mainly for being the first film to really do something that ambitious with so many superhero characters in the one film and not becoming a bloated mess) and Guardians of the Galaxy.

If the X-Men films counted I'd go with Days of Future Past as the best.

I haven't seen Civil War, but I'd certainly rate it higher than Winter Soldier- I hate the first Avengers film sorry- I thought it was a bloated mess, but I guess we all have different tastes- as for X Men, well, I love the first one, and the 2011 film, and the 2016 one

I just wish Red Skull had been a CGI bloody skull, rather than that awful mask.

Like Skeletor, but horrific.

i give it a 7. Steve is great and there is some good action but the pacing is choppy and the villain is terribly underwritten.

It was fun, I'd rather watch it than Winter Soldier or Civil War on a rainy afternoon. I would have preferred if the Germans hadn't disappeared from WWII and there wasn't so much futuristic technology in a 1940s setting. I guess they wanted a WWII setting without actually depicting WWII.

It only took you, what, 9 years to get back to us on what you thought about it. And it's WWII in the Marvel universe, I'm sure there's enough accurate WWII biopics out there to fulfill yourself.

Two years since the conversation started and I joined last month. Sorry for trying to breathe some life into the discussion, I'll try to only talk about recent movies from now on if you prefer it that way.

The advanced tech conflicts with the more reality-based MCU which features mostly real world weapons and vehicles as the norm 70 years later. Would America look the same if we captured all that Hydra technology? I wasn't expecting Captain America to be Band of Brothers, but I expected more than a passing resemblance to the war it's set in. It is possible to insert the characters into an event without completely rewriting it. https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/World_War_II_(European_Theater)

OLD THREADS ARE THE BEST.EVERYONES USUALLY DEAD OR IN A HOME.SO NOBODY TO ARGUE...I AGREE WITH YOU ABPUT CAPTAIN AMERICA.LESS FUTURE TECH AND A DEEPER JAB AT THE WWII STUFF WOULD HAVE GREATLY IMPROVED WHAT IS ALREADY A VERY GOOD FLICK.
