Oh My Gosh!!!
This is a Must See to kick off your Spring Break !
Blurb:
After the cataclysmic events in New York
with The Avengers, Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, living quietly in
Washington, D.C. and trying to adjust to the modern world. But when a
S.H.I.E.L.D. colleague comes under attack, Steve becomes embroiled in a
web of intrigue that threatens to put the
world at risk. Joining forces with the Black Widow, Captain America
struggles to expose the ever-widening conspiracy while fighting off
professional assassins sent to silence him at every turn. When the full
scope of the villainous plot is revealed, Captain America and the Black
Widow enlist the help of a new ally, the Falcon. However, they soon find
themselves up against an unexpected and formidable enemy-the Winter
Soldier.

My Review.
Truthfully I was skeptical and didn't put this on my 'must see opening night' list - until...my oldest son texted me from the movie theater and said, "Mom! This movie is good. You'll love it."
So, I dragged my happy hubby and the rest of my crew to the movie thinking that I would at least be entertained. But stop the phone! This movie had it all (except a serious romance) including a mild flirtation at an attraction. You want action? Got it. You want intrigue and twist? Got it. You want depth of characters? Got it. You want a good story line (no it's not Oscar worthy but it's darn good for a Comic Book Based movie) Got it. Definitately family friendly (if your kids don't mind violence). And...and it's got diversity. Lots of mixture of different types of characters. I-did-not- want the ride to end.
4 out of five 'shields' because well the storyline was good but not quite Oscar worthy.
