So I’m a big comic book fan, i picked this up yesterday, you will love it if you are a fan like me
The ultimate origin story from Marvel Comics’ comic-book universe, the World War II-era drama returns to its classic roots with this story of straight american heroics. Even his name exudes an America that time forgot: Steve Rogers (played by Chris Evans). Director Joe Johnston has surrounded Evans with a wonderful cast of supporting players, including Stanley Tucci as the German doctor who turns Rogers from puny to magnificent; Hayley Atwell as a comely British military liaison named Peggy Carter; Dominic Cooper as millionaire inventor Howard Stark (a.k.a. Iron Man’s dad); and the scene-stealing Tommy Lee Jones, who nails the movie’s most amusing lines as the crusty Col. Chester Phillips. Then there’s Hugo Weaving as Captain America’s nemesis, Red Skull. Contains intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action. DVD extras: behind-the-scenes featurettes; also, on Blu-ray, commentary by Johnston, with director of photography Shelly Johnson and editor Jeff Ford; deleted scenes and an inside look at the Marvel Universe. Plus a sneek peak at The Avengers
