Movie Review: Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is a sequel to the 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger.  The film is set two years after the battle of New York (Avengers). Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) now works for S.H.I.E.L.D. under Director Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson).  While sent on a mission, he discovers that Agent Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) had a separate mission. So he confronted Fury after returning and he was brief on a project.

Fury was then attacked while on his way to meet with Agent Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders). He survives the initial attack only to be ambushed by the Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan). Fury escapes to Rogers' apartment and warned him that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been compromised by Hydra before being gunned down.

Together with Romanof and with the help of Sam Wilson and Agent Hill, Rogers sets out to uncover the truth and bring Hydra down.

Like:
This sequel has a lot of more action and adventure. It's packed with tons of CGI effects especially the aerial battle that was the highlight of the film. Acting was superb especially the new characters. Story was easy to follow and you will definitely be glued to it especially if you are a Marvel junkie or an action junkie.

Dislike:
Nothing really to dislike with this film.

Don't forget to stay when the credits start - there is a mid-credit scene and an end credit scene.
