(spoilers) I really liked the way The Winter Soldier tied up the loose ends of Peggy's story, it was such a sweet scene and one that really proved to me that Captain America's character is now fully grasped. (end of spoilers) So glad you liked The Winter Soldier! <br /><br />xxSW https://www.blogger.com/profile/14687537232841591331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-35359339636865917942014-04-16T15:20:10.823-04:002014-04-16T15:20:10.823-04:00I really only found then boring by comparison to t...I really only found then boring by comparison to the rest of the film, and not so much the ones with Fury -- he kept things more upbeat. And I honestly expect to be not at all bothered by them the second time I see this movie. But I doubt they'll ever be a favorite part. I'm glad you found them interesting!<br /><br />(spoilers!) Oh, yes, looking very much forward to what will happen with SHIELD (and how it's all affecting Agents of SHIELD!) and Fury, and how all this will lead up to Avengers 2... And yeah I was impressed and pleased with the quality of the action. Thanks! :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-65090454428631912322014-04-15T12:25:34.660-04:002014-04-15T12:25:34.660-04:00As you noted, Captain America's core character...As you noted, Captain America's core character trait is his unwillingness to <br /><br />My main point of disagreement is that I found those dialogue scenes very interesting. They were an important aspect of the thematic elements of the film, and Redford and Jackson were great! I will admit that I have a higher tolerance level than most when it comes to dialogue scenes.<br /><br />I really did love the risks the movie took, and I can't wait to see how everything is going to play out in the future. Also, as you basically said, the action scenes were perfectly placed in the story. I never felt that the action scenes were just there to have action, but to drive the story forward. Good review. :)<br /><br />-JamesJames the Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00165238905288033483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-89645339288438178212014-04-12T23:34:58.822-04:002014-04-12T23:34:58.822-04:00It was quite the improvement on the first Captain ...It was quite the improvement on the first Captain America, wasn't it? That's fantastic, I'm glad you loved it so much! I think for me it rates second, just below The Avengers, but I rate The Avenger very high. Haha, exactly, Black Widow doesn't play "sidekick" to anyone! :D I was glad for the lack of "obligatory romance between the two leads" too, but I wasn't too worried it would happen, since I didn't see the leaked pic. I guess that just made for an even better surprise for you to find out it wasn't true! She was so cute trying to set him up with people, and it was a great running joke too. :DSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-19375230483053480032014-04-12T15:04:16.314-04:002014-04-12T15:04:16.314-04:00I absolutely LOVED this movie! Which kind of shock...I absolutely LOVED this movie! Which kind of shocked me because I found the first Captain America movie a little bit dull but THIS! I loved this movie more than Thor, more than The Avengers. It's my favourite Marvel movie to date. It has a clever, topical script. It has fantastic action scenes. Natasha is wonderful and is truly Captain America's equal. It's the Falcon who's Captain America's sidekick. I was so pleased that they didn't force a romance between her and Steve either! A photo from the movie got leaked a few months ago of Natasha and Steve kissing so I of course assumed that they were going to go down that route but they didn't. Natasha even spent quite a lot of the movie trying to set Steve up with other women :DHannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08112080523452829647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-19320915320780401742014-04-11T16:15:43.390-04:002014-04-11T16:15:43.390-04:00Haha, thanks Hamlette! :)Haha, thanks Hamlette! :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-24657498044654181842014-04-11T16:14:49.384-04:002014-04-11T16:14:49.384-04:00Thank you Rissi!

I think it'll even help me enjoy other films Cap's in that much more!<br /><br />I really think the addition of Natasha is what made this movie. I couldn't see it working without her! And yes, I'm very interested to see Agent 13 again and see what she's up to. She seems like a great addition. :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-48454517683710115002014-04-09T19:07:07.021-04:002014-04-09T19:07:07.021-04:00So what, I wonder, will the next film be called?

Love that you were able to finally resonate with this character - that always makes a movie so much better. <br /><br />I agree with what you say about the Natasha/Steve banter - their scenes together were SO cute and helped "lighten" the film. Agent 13 getting very little screen time *was* surprising though as you say, she'll be back in the 3rd film. Of that, I've no doubt - she was quite fierce in that last scene!
