Marvel Month - Mini Review: Captain America: The First Avenger

Captain America is my favourite Marvel character, there, I said it, happy? I suppose this is mostly down to Brian Bloom in Earth’s Mightiest Heroes who gave the character exactly what he needed, to say cheesy lines, but in a way that is inspiring. Chris Evans also helped with that appeal. I will say that his portrayal of the Human Torch in the Fantastic 4 movies is cringe-worthy at best, but I’d chock that down to the writer.

So, how does his first movie hold up? Let’s take a look.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 2 Episode 1 review - Shadows

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 1 was a mixed bag at best, so much that I got bored about 5 episodes into it, and stopped watching it. The turning point was having watched the movie Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. had done tie-ins with the movies before, but none of them had hit so close to home as Captain America: The Winter Soldier. I caught up, and there were some decent episodes of S.H.I.E.L.D. in that time, however it really started to gain momentum with the episode ‘Turn Turn Turn’ which began exploring the impacts of The Winter Soldier on S.H.I.E.L.D.  itself. The momentum continued throw and the finale was excellent, with both emotional impact on the characters, and the appearance of Nick Fury.

So, has Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s second series continued the momentum from the finale, or is it, like S.H.I.E.L.D. itself, back to square one? Let’s dig into the 2^nd season premiere and find out.
