Captain America: Civil War


I went to see Captain America:  Civil War, and the movie is very enjoyable.  There is some pretty intense action, but there is enough humor to lighten the tense moments.  The interaction between the cast is well done and believable. I love Spiderman's character, and as always, Robert Downey is delightful as Iron Man.




When the government pressures the Avengers into an accountability system overseen by the UN after events lead to the death of several people, the team is divided.  Captain America thinks the government shouldn’t interfere, and Iron Man thinks there should be government regulation.

The issues are presented in an intelligent way; I can understand where both sides are coming from, and the plot comes together with Cap and Iron Man working to solve the actual problem.  The plot can be confusing if you haven't seen Captain America: Winter Soldier or Avengers: The Age of Ultron, and there are a lot of characters to keep up with.  However, those are minor issues.

Movies in a franchise don't always stay interesting or entertaining, but that isn't the case with Captain America:  Civil War
