Summary:

It is the sequel to 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger and 2014's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and the thirteenth film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

In Captain America: Civil War, disagreement over international oversight of theAvengers fractures them into opposing factions – one led by Steve Rogers and the other by Tony Stark.

My Review:

-A ton of glorious and satisfying action from a movie filled with superheroes. 

-A somewhat deep story in which you understand the motivations of each character. 

-Successful introduction of two new characters to the MCU roster: Spiderman and Black Panther. They were very epic in the movie, I found. 

-A reaction to that question we constantly ask during these actions movies: "How are they superheroes if they destroy more than they save?". 

To me, the only con to this film is that it is more than a film which rests on itself, as it instead rests on the many movies that came before it. In other words, if you have not seen the previous Capt. America and Avenger movies, you probably won't understand what the hell is going on. It doesn't really have a concise beginning and end, it stands as a development of the characters we already love. 

If you have watched previous MCU movies, this is a must-see!

To me, Marvel movies cannot get any better than this! 

My Rating: 10/10
