Hmm I see no mention yet of a truth I perceive. The better a super hero movie script is, the more it will be about the wins and losses of choice, as perceived from the viewpoint of the ego.

Not the first super hero movie to highlight the sordid choices and recriminations; as well as the heights of victory of egotistical choosing, this movie definitely highlights ego struggles the LONGEST of any such movie in my memory. Without a whiff of transcendent surrender of hardened ego positions, I found it wearying after a time.

I also did not see mentioned elsewhere yet the fact of FIVE second unit directors. When this happens you almost always get an over-long movie with too much plot. I first noticed this on some James Bond pics.

As film-production it of course spectacular. Let's also note the car chase in the underpasses is one of the most complex chases ever staged as I can recall. What it unfortunately suffers from is lack of clarity in the blocking of the pre-vis. It's not clear the chase changes direction on the highway one or more times, perhaps three times. This was not made clear visually somewhat spoiling a historically ambitious chase sequence.… Expand

Fantastic movie from beginning to end. Doesn't fail to provide a perfect mix of humor, action, and great acting. Amazing story and great characters. Maybe the best comic book movie of all time!

Easy plot without huge holes, nice action, jokes, hosts of beloved characters - a good way to spend 2 hours. But the thing terrifies me the most is a Disney attitude to stagnation: the same formula is not likely to work anew.

Even though it plays it safe by not killing off any character this movie has a lot of implications on the story line of the superheroes and it is done on a very entertaining way, with a nice balance of comedy and drama and a great cast of characters (who are not developed, but that's what all the previous movies did ).

The biggest issue I have with this movie is the way the action scenes are edited on its first half, the camera seemed very shaky and shaky is not what you want on a movie with the budget to deliver stunts and CGI action. Thankfully the action stays more focused as the movie progresses.

This movie was overall a very exciting superhero flick that keeps the future of the MCU interesting.

And high hopes for the new Spiderman.… Expand

We are going to addOn paper, this movie should have looked like a disaster: We are going to make a Captain America sequel, but he'll be starring along side Iron Man in an adaption of the massive comic-book-universe spanning Civil War. We are going to add nearly every available hero as well, PLUS Spider-man and Black Panther are making their debuts. Most people who throw up their hands and say no way this is going to work.
Well, it worked. You have to hand it to the Russos because they juggle all of the super personalities almost better than Joss Whedon. Everyone is fully fleshed out and has justified reasons for being on the side they choose. No decision was made lightly. Then when the fun starts you can't help but smile at all of the geek moments you have been waiting to see on the silver screen. This is what shared cinematic universe are made for.
A minor quibble. Marvel better start upping the stakes because with all of these major engagements and few fatalities (outside of Avengers movies) the movies risk becoming stale and cookie cutter. They need some emotional punch otherwise we become complacent when we think there are no risk to the heroes we've grown to love over the last few years. When that punch does come... it'll be a doozy.… Expand

Based on previous marvel movies, super heroesAfter reading so many positive reviews of this movie I was super excited to see it. After finally seeing it I was left with a feeling of "meh". The main premise for this movie is laughable. Based on previous marvel movies, super heroes need to be monitored by the government / have some over sight because of three previous movies. These would be the Avengers, Avengers 2, and Winter Soldier. Of these three, only Avengers 2 is their fault, and in the end they end up saving the day anyways. In the rest of these movies they saved countless lives but they are too blame??? Beyond the story being off putting for me, the action is top notch. Everyone raves about the airport scene and it is really great. The thing that put that scene over the top for me was giant man. Spider man was good and I am looking forward to seeing his solo movie, but he could have been left out completely and the movie would have been exactly the same. I do feel like much of the hype around this movie has soured me a bit sadly. I went in with such high expectations and now I have no interest in every re-watching this movie again. If you want to save your self 2 and 1/2 hours, go to youtube and watch all the fight scenes there.… Expand

Captain America Civil War is an achievement for the superhero genre. Writers Steven McFeely, Christopher Markus and Joe Simon along with the direction of the Russo Brothers have created an incredibly entertaining film.

I initially had myCaptain America Civil War is an achievement for the superhero genre. Writers Steven McFeely, Christopher Markus and Joe Simon along with the direction of the Russo Brothers have created an incredibly entertaining film.

I initially had my concerns that it may feel contrived; as that was how I felt reading the comic it is based on. I can say that I am quite happy with how they handled it all. Every character has their moment to shine on the big screen. One of the other concerns I had was whether Cap would become lost in his own movie. I can also say that despite the large roster of characters it still feels like a Captain America film. Without giving spoilers the plot is largely driven by Cap's relationship with Bucky. Of course this implicates other characters along the way and provides tangible motivations for each character. This is most evident with Iron Man and new addition Black Panther.

Black Panther as well as Spiderman are both introduced in an organic way that feels natural. It doesn't come across as ham-fisted or that they have been shoehorned in. Black Panther looks great on screen. His costume, accent and personality come across as regal which fits him perfectly. Spiderman is perhaps the best interpretation of the character we have seen yet. I couldn't help but smile seeing him in action.

The standout set piece at the airport is perhaps not only the best super hero action scene; but one of the best action scenes yet. The scene itself evokes the full double page spreads in the comics. I was entertained throughout and the film managed to run the gamut of emotional investment. At its core, its central issue is about two very different ideologies. Yet it is able to also provide comedic moments of levity mixed in.

A few of my criticisms would be that there is a bit of shaky cam in the first act of the film. The villain as is the case in many Marvel films isn't particularly great. Zemo and Crossbones have fairly limited screen time. However the bigger antagonists are the heroes themselves. The other criticism would be of the ending. (Don't worry no spoilers here). The ending is a bit of a cliffhanger and I feel that it left me wanting more. I was so invested by that point that I would have liked to have seen a bit more. The biggest take away I had from seeing the film was questioning what is in store for; and the future of the Avengers now?

Prior to seeing Civil War I think the Winter Soldier was my favorite Marvel film. I would say that as a film the Winter Soldier is the better movie. There were so many things I liked about Civil War though that it ultimately takes a close second. My opinion may change after a second viewing. In the end I think Civil War's parts are greater than the sum of those parts; but those parts are damned good.… Expand

It's emotionally heart-breaking and thankfully proves that Marvel aren't afraid to test the boundaries of their characters and relationships. The gravitas of this though, is only possible thanks to an efficient set-up that the Russos craft really well, that's littered with great action, exciting sequences and touching moments that all really click together.
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: That super-efficient set-up does strip some life from the movie though, as the Russos don't give long enough in each moment to create real engagement or emotion. This in turn makes it feel a little manufactured, and less human than other MCU stories.
VERDICT: Whilst not quite engaging on such a human level, Civil War is expertly made, and contains the best final act in any MCU movie ever.… Expand

Marvel need to evolve sooner or later. The formula is running dry, and whereas I bet it's great for kids and lower-intelligence individuals to have a franchise which specialises in the by-the-numbers narrative structure ALL MCU films followMarvel need to evolve sooner or later. The formula is running dry, and whereas I bet it's great for kids and lower-intelligence individuals to have a franchise which specialises in the by-the-numbers narrative structure ALL MCU films follow (where story/action foreplay with no meaningful consequences add up to a blown out, OTT finale where nothing really meaningful happens, and then, a cliffhanger of sorts in the form of an open ending OR post-credits teaser) I, for one, am sick of it.
Second of all, the characters, which have become so watered down and 'Disneyfied' I barely see them as their comic book counterparts. Only, truthfully, Stark + T'Challa come close, whereas others are just simplified, dumbed down instances of rushed studio output. Scarlet Witch is definitely interesting, but looks more like a member of the Runaways than that of Magneto's daughter (oh wait, wrong film franchise....) and is WAY underpowered considering her actual abilities.
If I had to commend the film, I suppose the action is well co-ordinated. However, it does more than switch your brain off after a certain extent. Plus there is NO real tension when the two sides collide. Hell, they're not going to KILL each other are they? This is Disney after all!! No, we'll just get a few bruises and snide remarks between them, yeah, that'll do it. And no, Cap/Bucky vs Iron Man was nowhere as good as it should/could have been, an unwanted fallout from the previous no-stakes battle just witnessed.
All in all, I feel like Marvel found a formula with Avengers Assemble and have elected to stick with it, considering the film's success. I don't think, to echo another reviewer, that we will see Marvel get any better than this, because frankly, are they trying to be?
I only anticipate GOTG Vol.2 from the upcoming slate, but I expect, that they too will stick with the paydirt they struck first time around unfortunately.… Expand

Pros:
(1) The ultimate reason I am giving this film the 5/5 score is the brutal fight scene at the end. When you have two characters unwilling to move from their cause and willing to fight to the end, you get a brutal fight! I see it as brutal but not violent.

(2) There are numerous instances where the film makes fun of the non-plausibility of the super-abilities of the Marvel heroes and they were really funny. I do not believe any of the previous MCU films had done that.

Cons:
(1) It is a bit implausible that one person can create the so-called 'civil war' between the heroes. It makes our heroes look foolish that they would fight among themselves so easily. It makes the Sokovia Accords seemed all so necessary.

(2) It is also implausible that Tony could assemble his half of the Avengers so quickly, including a certain spider character.

Who would think the film is great? All children and young adults
Who would think the film is only so-so? Old adults
Who would think the film is lousy? No one.

Rating: 5/5 (no half scores). It's worth it to watch it in the cinemas and then buy the DVD.… Expand

Captain America: Civil War is a fight that stands on its own. It’s a personal fight -- of emotions. That’s new to the MCU. Moral questions, logical character motivations, splendid chemistry and they even put old events in a brand new perspective. Marvel finally hits on all fronts. The film is spent more on character depth rather than on humor -- it’s a more mature and serious film than what we expected to see. Team Cap vs Iron Man is full of characters yes; but it surprisingly wasn’t that messy as one might suspect. Too many? Yes. But worth it? Ohh yeah! This film and its events are all greatly motivated -- both characters and action. The action might not be top-notch due to some lack of uniqueness and long term entertainment. Too long and meh for my taste. Add some expositions, shaky-cam and a less great ending -- well it’s not a perfect film. Still; it’s one heck of a superhero flick -- a flick that’s not only action and CGI, but most important -- it's a film of characters.

The story line was pretty good, everything came together quite naturally, although I found Baron Zemo to be quite useless and was unnecessary (another poor MCU villain). The action was decent but lacked that wow factor, other than the airport scene of course which was amazing. I absolutely loved the new characters introduced, Spider-Man was fantastic and he was really the highlight of the movie for me. Black Panther was also great, although a bit dull; he was a welcome addition to the list of MCU heroes. Once again, strong performances from Evans (Cap A) and Downey Jr (Ironman) heightened the quality of the movie.

Its biggest weakness for me was that it was too safe & too formulaic. I was disappointed they didn’t have the guts to kill off War Machine. The action for the most part was decent but felt generic, especially when you look at the action in recent comic book movies like Batman V Superman and Deadpool. But the worst offender was the constant jokes and quips. Most of the time they just fell flat and were forced, I’m really getting sick of this and this was one of the more mellow MCU films in that regard.

Overall I still enjoyed this very much and am now excited for the next Spider-Man movie. 8.4/10… Expand

It is well acted and brilliantly directed, and shows a more human side to Iron Man, Captain America, and the entire Avengers team. The action sequences were brilliantly done, most notably the Airport Battle, where both Iron Man's and Captain America's teams clash, and the final battle between the titular hero and Iron Man. There was (mostly) good chemistry between the actors, with one or two awkward and overly long sequences between Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany. Daniel Brühl portrayed Zemo, the movie's villain, well, but the character was unnecessary and ultimately disappointing. But cons aside, this movie also features the best on-screen portrayal of Spider-Man, and finds a great new hero in Black Panther. This is also a hugely important movie in the MCU; this is what it has been building up to - other heroes joining the cast not in an Avengers movie, but in a standalone superhero movie, in this case a Captain America movie. Next year, we will have Hulk in 'Thor: Ragnorok', and Tony Stark 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' - all these superheroes now co-starring in one another's movies, not a crossover or a team-up movie.… Expand

It felt like a good comic book, where the action is not the main highlight and it's not all about CGI and who has the biggest bad guy… Expand

Captain America Civil War is not only the best Marvel movie but it's also the best comic book movie so far. One of the reasons why i say this is because the action is better than ever before. If you thought that The Avengers, Captain AmericaCaptain America Civil War is not only the best Marvel movie but it's also the best comic book movie so far. One of the reasons why i say this is because the action is better than ever before. If you thought that The Avengers, Captain America the Winter Solider and other marvel movies had great action, wait until you see this. Not only it'll make you happy, but it's gonna blow your nerdy mind! Another reason is that there are two new characters in the movie: Spider-man and Black Panther and i have to say that, they are the best characters in the entire movie. Tom Holland's Spider-man has to be the best Spider-man we have ever gotten. Tom really knows who Spider-man is and he knew that he had to make the marvel nerds (i'm one of them) happy. Even though that he only is in the movie for about 20 minutes, that's about enough to consider him to be the best Spidey. Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther was a bad-ass. I never really knew him that well but after seeing him in the movie, i want to see more of him. The cast does a really great job portraying their characters. They know what's currently going on with their characters and they know it's a tough time. I know that a lot of people has already seen the movie but if you hadn't see the movie yet then go see it because it's gonna be one hell of a time!… Expand

Everything was allright, the story looked really complexFinally, after IronMan3, Thor2 and The Avengers 2, Captain America is back! And after Winter soldier i thought it was a good thing because it was one of the best movies in the saga!

Everything was allright, the story looked really complex and good written. The drama grew with the tension and the feeling that something terrible and awesome was going to happen! But then... they came...

First: Burton, who suddently came and ruined the situation with his humor... meh... after that, without any good reason, IronMan called Spiderman to help him, and HE-RUINED-EVERYTHING!!! Everything builded in 90 minutes totally destroyed by an annoying and not funny teenager that ruined and cancelled all the tension and the drama created in almost 2 hours of movie, why? No one knows... because he disappeared after 10 minutes... In the end it started again to look good BUT suddently Tony Stark came out of his character and did something absolutely weird ( the fight with Winter Soldier to vengence his family... why? ) So, a movie with potential but ruined by bad comedy / humor and stupid action sequences.. i felt disappointed, offended as fan and this was the proof that this saga is not good.

Ant-man, although he already had his own movie, was also a nice addition. The movie is kid friendly and fight scenes well-choreographed. And the story line held for what the movie was trying to do - government trying to keep the Avengers under government control with the Avengers split on the idea which leads to the 'Civil War'. Not sure what's up with the Super Hero against Super Hero trend (Batman vs Superman). However, Civil War was much more intense as far as the level of rivalry between the two Super Hero groups and they really didn't come together at the end as they did in Batman vs Superman. So I was not a big fan of the script - and I think both my boys (9 and 10) felt the same way. We much prefer Super Hero versus villain over fighting amongst each other. And for that reason, rather than the 8 this movie probably deserves - because it was well done. I'm giving it a 6 since I did not like the story line and especially how the movie ended.… Expand

Okay this one is the tipping point for the whole superhero sub-genre. While it's competent, fairly well made in the expected style, and tries to deliver in the ever increasing more is more attitude for these things; it is also for the mostOkay this one is the tipping point for the whole superhero sub-genre. While it's competent, fairly well made in the expected style, and tries to deliver in the ever increasing more is more attitude for these things; it is also for the most part a big silly overlong bore. Fights and more fights are just boring! Especially when the story is convoluted with way too many characters not to mention all the super powers. That's the biggest problem with this movie, it simply has too many characters to juggle for the audience to truly get emotionally involved in any. How many times can we witness big outlandish battles of superheroes, more superheroes, super villains, etc. and find something new? The big money shots are nothing special anymore since CGI has become so sophisticated that anything and everything has been done on screen, or so it seems.

The European settings are good, and there's a subtle reality to the filmmaking not apparent in a lot of these movies. The tone is more adult than "Avengers" and this big superhero throw down feels more intelligent than the very similar face off of "Batman v. Superman", yet it is still silly as hell! Though the acting isn't bad per se, I now despise every actor in this thing. It's like the ultimate in club with them all playing outlandish pretend and laughing all the way to the bank after we surrender our wits and bucks to the nonsense. Especially annoying are Paul Rudd's attempts at humor, Jeremy Renner's attempts at drama, Anthony Mackie's attempt at being Will Smith, and the way over it - be done with it Downey Jr. whose profession seems to now be playing Iron Man, not an actor. Worst of all is the introduction of the yet again rebooted Spider-Man who truly now should be called Spider-boy. He ain't no man in this, that's for sure. Yes they make that point, but the unknown actor looks and sounds like Tobey Maguire (not a favorite, but he fit the role) which further confuses all the reboots for this once great comic book character now utterly destroyed by this juvenile, hammy, over-the-top played for all laughs re-introduction which in a sane world would be the death nail to that franchise. Of course we're not in a sane world though. And despite my reaction, some teenage girls were giggling at all the idiocy… so the money machine will continue of course.
Also distracting were the needless cameos by actors we all know who are on screen too briefly to not serve as distraction.

Final conclusion: Marvel is over (in terms of their once original, clever, inventive and engaging storytelling) and so looks to be the whole superhero fad in cinema which began in the late seventies with the epic "Superman", furthering into phenomenon heights with the late eighties "Batman" and hitting its zenith in 2008 with the excellent "Iron Man" and "The Dark Knight". I actually liked the first "Captain America" in 2011 which was a solid origin story, (8 rating here). Of course it will take years and dozens more big movies like this for audiences to wane. That's the cycle, but I'm marking this as the turning point.
Just the opinion today of a former kid comic book fan and lifelong movie disciple.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Praises
* The final battle between Captain America and Iron Man. It resembles a lot like Anakin vs. Obi Wan in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
* The visual effects
* Robert Downey, Jr.'s dark performance as Iron Man. It contrasts to all the Iron Man performances he has done over the years.
* Chris Evan's performance as Captain America
* The casting choice for Spider-Man, Tom Holland. He looks just like Peter Parker despite the flaws from the writing.
Criticism
* The title of the movie being the third installment of Captain America instead of just calling it "Marvel's Civil War."
* Too much characters who don't resemble at all to the Captain America franchise, including Black Panther, Scarlet Witch, The Vision, and especially, Spider-Man.
* Special criticism: SPIDER-MAN. He was supposed to be a very inspiring character with huge emotional background and very trustworthy to fight with. I prefer to call him, Peter Parker, "Jr." because he wasn't that young in the comics when he became Spider-Man. He got bitten by a spider during his senior year of high school. I really hate how they presented Spider-Man in the MCU because it doesn't relate at all to how Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield portrayed him. Tom Holland was better than Tobey Maguire, but not as good as Andrew Garfield, because Garfield put a lot of emotion and heart while in the suit. In this movie, Peter said it's been 6 months since he got his powers, but he never explained why he became Spider-Man to being with. That reason will always be Uncle Ben. When Spider-Man said, "Holy **** when Ant-Man grew, it literally killed my childhood. So, **** you, Marvel.
* Aunt May's casting choice was the worst. It's a way to make humor gimmicks like Iron Man flirting with her in front of Peter. Ugh!
* Civil War was supposed to be the darkest of the MCU, instead there was too much humor and too much meme references to mock.
* The Vision wearing human clothes. Are you ****ing kidding me?!
* It was meant to a Captain America movie, but they barely even focused on him. They focused more on the supporting characters than the actual main character.
* Stan Lee calling Stark, "Stank." Imagine replacing "t" with a "k."
* Special criticism: No deaths involved. Marvel is so much of a **** that can't kill off any character in Civil War.
* Part Two of Special Criticism: The comic, Civil War, was supposed to be the most devastating storyline to be put in Marvel. What the hell was Feige thinking not resembling the majority of a darker tone from the comic to the movie? In the trailer, we assumed that War Machine was going to die and have Iron Man avenge him by fighting off Captain America even more. Nope, he gets paralyzed in the leg. That shot from The Vision could have killed him even before the fall.
* Part Three of Special Criticism: The most significant part of the comic was the aftermath of Civil War: THE DEATH OF CAPTAIN AMERICA. In the end of the comic, Steve Rogers gets assassinated by a hypnotized Sharon Carter during his conference at the White House. This made a huge impact to the Avengers. Iron Man mourns for Captain America and regrets signing the Ant-Registration Act, including the harm he put into The Avengers. Iron Man was so mournful enough to recreate S.H.I.E.L.D. (New Avengers Initiative). Sharon Carter encourages Bucky Barnes to fulfill Steve Rogers's role as Captain America. He refuses until he finally remembers his entire friendship with him and Steve. He gazes at the suit and experiences hope. I wanted to see that as the end of the movie, BUT NOW I CAN'T. In the movie, Captain America is still alive and Bucky Barnes freezes himself again with no motivation (other than until the hypnotism wares off, but that doesn't count). What the hell have you done, Kevin Feige?… Expand

So take it for what you will. The acting was great but the flow of the story not so much. A little repetitive for Marvel standards but I was entertained enough to not be pissed I spent the $11 at the cinema.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Captain America: Civil War is a strange movie to me. There were a few parts that I liked, but there were also many parts that I felt were out of place when trying to understand the scope of the film. The story is meant to be about the consequences of superheroes and their actions, but the movie shifts away from that in favor of a story focused on Bucky/The Winter Soldier (late spoiler).

One of the positives about the film is that the setup for it was really nice. The problem is that a lot of what occurred was quite illogical, reducing the effects of the thought provoking elements present in the story. For the most part, Tony Star/Iron Man felt out of character in accepting Pro-Registration when he was so highly suspicious of SHIELD during The Avengers. The Scarlet Witch accidentally killing some people was a nice setup in trying to make the Superheroes accountable, but in practicality, their suggestion would have never worked. Tony Stark and Steve Rogers never actually sit down to properly discuss it, which would have reduced the action, but would have ultimately made the story more interesting. For example, Tony bringing up how his own reckless actions have led to the creation of multiple supervillains while Steve could bring up his examples of Hydra taking over SHIELD and being part of the powerful regulating group.

The fight choreography was very good too. We see some nice interactions between the characters both in and out of fight scenes. However, the emphasis on the action rather than the story sometimes leads to major problems like the ones that were present in Batman Versus Superman. It is not as bad in Captain America: Civil War, but some of the same elements could be seen.

Ultimately, there was too little time for the movie as it tried to do too much. The introduction of Spider-Man felt strangely out of place as Tony turned to him in order to get help for his faction. The same applied to Hawkeye as he was pulled out of retirement from out of nowhere. It felt like the debate between Steve Rogers and Tony Stark as to which side is right could have been one movie and Steve Rogers trying to track down the Bucky could have been another.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I enjoy how they set the scene at the beginning to create conflict within the team. But at the end, the plot does not quite add up. If either Iron man or winter solider is not in Russia, nothing would have happened. Imagine if iron man did not catch up. It will be Captain American and Winter Solider in there like an idiot. Or if there is another person going with Iron man. The situation would be less dramatic.
Anyway, for some reasons, the movie makes Iron man looks like a child which is quite disappointing. I rather have two equal parties in the civil war then a heroic Captain America with a childish Iron man.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 7/10, if that. Maybe 6.5/10. Not BAD per say, but this movie made a lot of the same flaws that Age of Ultron did, mostly due, I suspect, to a time crunch; such as hurried plot progression and failing motivation for both villain and character. Adding in Spiderman was just Marvel wanting to show off the character they'd bought but it really detracted from some of the gravitas. He was very good but he didn't seem to fit in with the overall story. And the side-plot involving him was one of the elements that had been a worry for the movie; that it wouldn't be a true Captain America movie as it wouldn't be about him as much as it should've.

The movie was built up around the Accords but they pretty much were forgotten for the entire second half and it just became about Iron Man wanting to prove himself right over Captain America. They were the motivation, yes, but that became very hard to see by the time of the airport fight scene. And of course there was a lot of time given to the other Winter Soldiers but then it cut off when he killed them. A twist, yes, but one which wasted massive amount of film time. The fight scenes were decent but some of the employed elements, such as Ant-Man's surprise, were rather surprising--and not in the good way. It was the sort of thing that really didn't belong in a group hero movie.

When it comes to movies about conflicting ideals, especially when, as in this case, both sides make solid and understandable points, it is usually important to give both sides their due so, even if one wins, both are understood. And it had that covered quite well early on with Tony's guilt and Steve's hero complex, but that theme was lost somewhere along the lines. Eventually Tony's team (minus Natasha) seemed composed of people seeking revenge (T'Challa), gratification (Tony), or just following blindly (Spiderman+Rhodey). There wasn't even any pressing NEED for them to fight, and that was what made the movie as a whole rather hard to swallow.

Characterization, as with the plot, began well before taking a nosedive about halfway. There was a nice base, each character given their due and specific reasons to support their side, but as the difference in opinions arose it was lost by the wayside. Some of the most important elements were forgotten in place of cheap drama; Tony became a hothead with no care for Steve (a feature which was the entire point of Ultron), Peter became a fanboy without the ability to think for himself, and T'Challa sought revenge with no other thought through his head. (Or, for the record, explanation for his own abilities and suit beyond a passing comment of it being an heirloom.)

All-in-all the movie gave the feeling that they were heading in one direction beforehand but a last-minute change forced them to scrounge for an alternative ending. Not quite bad, but shall we say... lacking.… Expand

Extremely boring. Whether im being biased/comparing my views on this to that of TWS is irrelevant, because this film didn't strike me as entertaining. It had an interesting premise but didn't deliver it very well. However, the new portrayal of Spider-Man i think was the best since the original Tony Maguire performance, and I liked the inclusion of Black Panther. There were some good fight scenes: most notably the one between Iron Man and Captain America, and a majority of the cinematography was well executed, but overall, it was a very boring film that I had much anticipated.

IT IS NOT AN AVENGERS MOVIE BTW like other reviewers have said, its about Cap, bucky, falcon then the subplot of the avengers against each other, really a trilogy to Winter Soldier. all the characters were great and can't wait for Spidey & black panther to return!! You do get a little confused about the villain's cause but by the end everything gets wrapped up beautifully. Zemo is a weak villain but you know he's a normal human who has vengeance and who's super smart. Again CE, RDJ, SS, SJ, and the rest of the cast did a phenomenal job and you'll enjoy it :) would definitely recommend it, a hint of a new romance but seriously marvel doesn't need romance to make their movies good AND A LOT OF BROMANCE.. lol GO WATCH IT!!… Expand

Who's to say this is the battle of the superheroes? Its never about the fight, its our intentions whether we have our morals or the rule of law is more important.

Captain America: Civil War (and Spiderman). When the trailers and hype hit the world i was giving so much thought into if i would even watch this movie in theater or just buy it after a few years on DVD. The first impressions were: With my limited knowledge of the Marvel Universe, Why would they fight each other? Lucky for me, that question was answered within minutes of the movie.

The movie was just as expected of Marvel: Easy viewing, not to hard to get story-line and a lot of great characters from the Marvel universe including Spiderman. The story was wel driven and its characters motivation for having a grudge at each other was fairly good developed.

The CGI was, as expected, good and the mixture of Human acting and CGI was pretty balanced. I am not into these "good guy vs good guy" movies but this one surprised me with the motivation for why they would be fighting. The cause was, for both sides well explained and fairly realistic considering the characters personalities.

Movie was OK for me, but for a Marvel fanatic it could very well me a 10/10

Watch if:
-Marvel is your thing
-Great fighting scenes
-Marvel champs fight of each other
-Spiderman appearance (Poor but ok)

Don't watch if
-Your affection for DC will prevent you to even think about a marvel movie
-You are more into a Marvel movie where the characters are well developed and explained as for the dedicated super hero movies… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was very excited for this movie because of the premise, having some of the avengers in the movie and new characters that I was very hyped for including Black Panther and Spider-man. This movie imo is the best marvel movie for me and is one of the best superhero movies of all time imo. Although I would say this, after watching the trailers, I had some expectations for the movie and was quite disappointed it didn't happen in the movie. But that was actually Marvel's fault for how they edit their trailers which is quit ridiculous and the movie still delivered. Here are some things that I liked about the movie and things I didn't like about the movie:

POSITIVES:
-The narrative was really intriguing to me because it really follows what happened in the previous marvel movies.Also what I didn't expect is that in the movie, Iron Man and his team actually take sides with the U.S Secretary of State to try to bring Captain America and his team in. Also, the premise of how the final act turns out. So the writing is excellent and brilliant and is the reason why it makes the movie the most mature Marvel film to date.
- The action is great and fun. Captain America and a couple avengers trying to stop a villian from stealing something is awesome. The chase that includes Black Panther, Bucky, the Falcon, and Captain America is great. The airport scene imo, the highlight of the movie and one of the best scenes ever put onto film. You have Spider-man flying around kicking ass. You have Ant-Man, turning into a giant and fighting off other superheroes.. Also, you have some action mixed in with some great comedy that has been there in the previous Marvel movies. The fight that involves CA, Iron Man, and Bucky Barnes was surprisingly violent and amazing. I liked the action way more than the action in the previous Marvel movies, including The Winter Soldier.
- I like how all the superheroes have a great amount of screen time. It could of been an easy mistake where some characters or one doesn't have enough screen time but it was a huge positive that they did.
- The main villain, Helmut Zemo, was interesting because he was different from the other Marvel villains. He was more psychological and a crazed nut. His motive was to tear the Avengers apart(mainly the leaders,Captain American and Iron Man). Unlike Lex Luthor in Batman v Superman, his reasons were clear of why he hated the Avengers and wanted them to be no more and the writing of how he made Iron Man turn against CA and Bucky was very well done.
- SURPRISINGLY, Peter Parker/Spider-man had a major role in the movie and stoled the show for me. He nailed it both as Peter Parker and Spider-man. I'm also glad that we have a MCU Spider-man and that awful Sony Pictures Spider-man(oh boy) played by Andrew Garfield is gone forever.

The only negative thing I could say is that I wished the villain played a major part in the story. Honestly, he didn't have enough screen time and wasn't really a focus for the Avengers besides CA and Iron Man. I wish he had more motives/ideas in the movie like what if he led an army and was a threat to the world and wanted to destroy it because of his hatred towards the Avengers. He needed more development. He was like some guy off the streets who decided one day, he's gonna destroy the Avengers and didn't seem like an actual villain from the Marvel comics.

So overall, the movie was amazing. Let's be honest, there's nothing mind blowing about Captain America Civil war besides some moments during the airport scene. I wouldn't say the story is emotionally compelling and oscar worthy. It's definitely not the perfect movie. I would say I liked it more than any Marvel movie but doesn't rank up with The Dark Knight(which takes #1) but is in the list of the greatest superhero movies ever made. If the villain had a major role and had more development and the people thought bigger with the story, it could of been of the best movies of all time. It's actually very close but for what it is, its a damn good movie and will always be one of my favorites.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Civil War is a very well put together marvel movie, when working with this many heroes/story lines and actors in a movie like this it can be difficult to keep in order and make sure what needs to be done is done. But they do a great job in this movie, they are able to implement new characters and old ones but keep it natural. The original Civil War comic book made use of most of the heroes in the marvel universe sadly this doesn't, It brings it in some but not as many in the source material.The villain in this film felt a bit odd and out of place but he was sort of needed I guess? Those things aside the movie is extremely enjoyable, The choreographed fights are amazing and stand out compared to other marvel movies. The story is told very well and they focus on what they need to and is one of the best I've seen in recent Marvel films.But basically job well done all around. Marvel fans will definitely love this film.Oh and spider-man is done extremely well don't worry.… Expand

ThisI love the superhero stuff, but I'm not a fanboy. The thing that always stopped me getting into them properly, even as a kid, was the childish black and white morality that was never found in the real world (I was a weird kid, okay?). This would be the thing to draw me straight out of the comics and back into reality, rather than the unbelievably of the super-powers themselves. Captain America: Civil War is a grown-up superhero movie because for once it isn't a battle between good and evil, it's about philosophy: should the Avengers be allowed to act outside of international law as the Captain believes, or should they be subordinate to state legislation as Tony Stark does? There's only one way to find out - FIGHT!!!

The film looks amazing, the fights are spectacular without being ridiculously over-the-top CGI-fests like Batman Vs Superman (or parts of the other Marvel films for that matter). For the most part, every superhero feels like they have a substantial part to play (even the ones primarily there to put the audience on notice of other spin-off movies) and the battles feel like they carry the weight of significance, which is an achievement in films like these when you're pretty sure nobody is going to die.

The best Marvel film to date: great, charisma from the leads delivered through fantastic action that's actually driven, for once, by a tight, believable and interesting storyline.… Expand
