{4.5\/5} “Whatever happens tomorrow you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are. Not a perfect soldier, but a good man.”<\/p>\n
Captain America: The First Avenger<\/strong>, released in 2011<\/p>\n Steve Rogers wants to fight in World War II because he doesn’t like bullies. He’s short, skinny, and has a few other issues such as asthma. But his persistence pays off and he’s accepted for a special program — he’s injected with a miraculous serum that makes him bigger and stronger. He becomes Captain America and heads off to fight the Red Skull.<\/p>\n This is a fitting introduction to this character who is an important part of the Marvel universe — he’s shown up in 4 more movies so far.<\/p>\n It’s an exciting movie, and I liked it a lot.<\/p>\n Peggy Carter was a character who was obviously worth exploring more and I’m glad she got her own series (Agent Carter<\/strong>).<\/p>\n The scene at the end of the credits shows Captain America waking up after his long sleep.<\/p>\n Stars Chris Evans, Hayley Atwell, and Hugo Weaving. Directed by Joe Johnston (October Sky<\/strong>). The theme by Alan Silvestri is fantastic — the rest of the music is OK.<\/p>\n
