CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR REVIEW

[@lilwiley10]

"I can't go to Germany!" "Why not?" "I have homework" Fucking perfect Spider-Man right there

[@BlackGodKing-oi2gr]

That line single handily made me love this Spiderman

[@lilwiley10]

+BlackGod King1995 That 30 minutes he was in alone is the best Spider-Man incarnation.

[@GaryKlineCA]

+Black Lightning ⚡ One of my favorite things about Spider-Man is that even though he's not physically tough (he heals faster than normal, but he's as fragile as Tony Stark), he can hold his own in a fight with the biggest, baddest baddies. And we got to really see that in this movie, perhaps better than any other movie we've seen.

[@GaryKlineCA]

I didn't say he was weak, he's stronger than most of those guys on the field, and they showed that. But in the comics he never seemed that durable, not like Cap and the others. His spidey-sense usually allows him to duck/anticipate blows, so he's really hard to hit. I wish they had played that up more, but maybe that would've made him too overpowered in this fight.

[@JojoChampion]

Adored it. 47 years old and gasped when Giant Man came on. Sweet times.

[@harleymama5421]

+JojoChampion im 30+yrs old, and im just as excited as my 5, 9, 10yr olds too!

[@JojoChampion]

Hi-5 ;)

[@biocapsule7311]

+JojoChampion "Ahhh... something just went inside me!!"

[@corneliusbroadnax546]

he grabs war machine and starts laughing..."Ha Ha Ha" that was funny

[@LeeSmilex]

+JojoChampion yeah! several years your junior but exactIy same reaction! tbh that many characters fighting aII coming to Iife on screen - could u ever have predicted we would see this awesomeness when u were young? or even when the cap movie with matt saIinger (cringe) or even Iundgren's punisher (which i have a soft spot for) were out? mind blowing really. :-)

[@nslater1388]

Bucky killing the Starks was subtly mentioned in Winter Soldier.

[@dManZ14]

YUP

[@anthonyfins7519]

+N Slater As soon as Winter Soldier made the car crash I knew it was Stark's Parents.

[@bryangutierrez5]

+N Slater Wait when in Winter Soldier did they mention that? I missed it

[@handsomeheff]

+onetruegentleman Very quickly, when Zolof is explaining how Hydra grew within S.H.E.I.L.D Widow states "Shield would have stopped you" and Zolof follows with "Accidents do happen" and a quick newspaper headline of Starks parents killed in a car acccident

[@handsomeheff]

+Jason Boyce *comes across the screen

[@WiqidBritt]

It gets overshadowed by the airport fight, but the close quarters fight scene in Bucky's apartment building was also a fantastic sequence. It reminds me of the elevator scene in Winter Solider.

[@ksgnejgnk]

Reminds me of the daredevil hall scene

[@TheMagicClover]

"Do you guys remember that old movie Empire Strikes Back???" I lost my shit. Spidey was perfect.....

[@idleeidolon]

Another amusing part of this movie: Tony goes, "life signals detected." Cap goes, "How many?" Tony answers, "One." Then we see Zemo. Then we see Black Panther behind them all. Tony's suit didn't detect Black Panther!

[@philcorrigan5641]

Wakanda tech > Starktech

[@brucekent9085]

+Phil Corrigan Indeed. Wakanda is Marvel's counterpart of DC's Gorilla City. Very advanced civilization hidden in Africa. Something else that is cool is in the comic books Black Panther is the one built the Quinn jets.

[@FullmetalAsian]

+Bruce Kent doesnt he also give cap a second shield

[@brucekent9085]

+Nate Robinson I think so

[@aymanhadi5016]

Awesome

[@KyleS3m3noff]

After two 5-second scenes, I want a Bucky/Falcon buddy movie directed by Shane Black more than anything else on Marvel's upcoming slate. Also, loving that Buckeroo jersey.

[@roguecreed241]

YES.

[@MS-lw2bh]

I agree. That pair up would make a good movie.

[@vincevirtua]

A road trip to Vegas? Black Panther turns up and they crap shoot?

[@LeeSmilex]

+Kyle Semenoff i'm not sure if the whole strength is how they are supporting. it could get too much over a whoIe fiIm - admit that shane bIack would be the dude to write it but after iron man 3 not directing, pIease!

[@SirOrdo]

+Kyle Semenoff "Couldn't you have done that 5 minutes ago?" - "I hate you"

[@KevinWu787]

"A delivery for TONY STANK!!!" -Stan Lee 2016 LOL

[@wiz_dropbomb2134]

hahaha

[@spotlightcollectivetelevis2008]

+Kevin Wu "..yeah...that's not going away anytime soon...."

[@FullmetalAsian]

reservation for Tony stank

[@TheEdgecrusha]

I laughed during that scene but I just laughed waaaay harder reading it out.

[@Donbett1974]

I really hope they make Stan Lee the watcher.

[@SilentaryXIV]

I'm glad to see others who liked the use of Zemo. I loved his role in the movie.

[@timkinney8719]

Watching all these back episodes on KZbin really make me appreciate how amazing Kevin looks these days. Really great work, brother, and thanks for being around for basically my whole life making awesome movies and podcasts and enriching my world in general.

[@hectormusic111]

The airport scene, final fight, Vision and Wanda scenes, Spidey, Ant Man... man you know what? EVERYTHING in this movie was just so good. might be the first time ever that I want to rewatch a movie in the theater again.

[@RegisBodnar]

Spider Man was so different in this movie! He fought differently, he slung his webs differently, all of his movements were different! He also felt like a kid! "You have a robot arm! That's so cool!" "Guys! They're not stopping!" They made Falcon (worse Iron Man in the movies) into a really fucking cool hero! They introduced the Vision + Scarlett Witch romance!!!! They changed my favorite superhero to Black Panther!!!!

[@TheSvmurai]

+Regis Bodnar Agreed! They made him seem powerful, yet naive, which is definitely an early Peter.

[@SelfishNeuron]

Ironman: "Who is talking?" Antman: "This is your conscience..." ;)

[@casuallychallenged]

+SelfishNeuron Scott Lang (Ant-Man) "Hank always said never trust a Stark." Tony Stark (Iron Man) "Who are you?" Scott "Come on man..."

[@mhaze210]

This movie is a big achievement being able to cram so many superheroes into one film...make it serious, humorous, and fun the entire time. All characters get a chance to shine..all while directed beautifully.

[@Smeet9]

Yeah and for them to explain everyone's motivations without forcing it was amazing

[@dude_1983]

Tony was aware that Bucky was victimized as a brainwashed Hydra assassin but once he found out he killed his parents, logic turns into rage. I loved that.

[@Andjelka99]

Rewatching this and found your comment just wanted to add. Tony hit Steve first, I think he was more angry at Steve for not telling. And then Bucky jumped to protect Steve so it went 2 v 1

[@mikeg155]

Andjelka Tony wanted Bucky off jump and Cap stopped him. Hitting Cap was some anger, but more to get him out the way. Only reason him and Cap ended up going at is because Tony was trying to kill Bucky and Cap wouldn’t let him.

[@MiltonStillton]

if this is what they can put together for Civil War, Infinity War is going to be like a Cinematic Event for the ages

[@clarkbarrett6274]

Yep, and then they had the audacity to top IW with Endgame.

[@mauropedrosa7317]

@@clarkbarrett6274 damn right

[@kennyteeology3526]

Paralyzed Rhodey was definitely a consequence of the events in Civil War. His speech about running 138 or so combat missions knowing each time that the mission could be his last really hit me hard.

[@RandomBlackGamer]

You guys are the 1st reviewers I've seen who's actually mentioned the young Stark part and how good the CG looked. I was waiting for someone to say something about it lol.

[@anne_ruok7172]

I like how he mentioned Less Than Zero because that was exactly my first thought when I saw that scene.

[@kevinsayshowdy]

My wife got broke down when they acknowledged Peggy Carter. That was perfect closure. And somewhat sucks if the series gets canceled now.

[@l.apastore4208]

MISSION REPORT; DECEMBER 16th 1991

[@Warvvolf]

BvS: Stop fighting because of a mom. Civil War: Keep fighting because of a mom.

[@tommypetersen2540]

As MGM was to musicals, Universal Studios to monsters etc. Marvel is to super hero movies. This is truly Marvel's cinematic golden age ( with literary silver and bronze age books). They have developed a winni g formula that we should all enjoy as like all great things it will eventually end. Let's all enjoy this remarkable level of creativity, consistency, and excellence. Hard to believe that Iron Man was almost ten years ago, they took their time, built a great brand, and put their faith in the fact that these movies appeal to nerds and non-nerds alike. Amazing really.

[@cd4playa1245]

Kevin Smith is a fantastic writer. Dogma should go down in history as art.

[@cd4playa1245]

+Huboons See Dogma.

[@omgbygollywow]

LOL!

[@REfan001]

not even he thinks that

[@joejoerobinson8724]

I love Dogma, but clerks 2 is the funniest

[@nwahs3233]

52:48 ; called it on Sam taking up the Captain America mantle 😉

[@yoursonisold8743]

I was happy that you two liked Zemo, because a lot of people didn't get how brilliant he really was. The fact that he did all of this by himself without any outside help and that he had a plan for every single eventuality was really great. He was also the only villain (aside from Loki in Thor 2) who ever _succeeded_ in their plan.

[@weldingbrotha10]

exactly...and he's the only villain who succeed in their plans..

[@yoursonisold8743]

weldingbrotha10 Not to be petty, but I already said that lol

[@pushinsince9339]

+Yourson Isold Not to mention he was just a regular person with no powers or combat capabilities.

[@yoursonisold8743]

PushinSince93 He was actually part of the Sokovia special forces. So I reckon he has some intelligence gathering and combat experience. Just nothing that compares to super-heroes.

[@IH8YH]

yeah Ross asking them about Thor and Hulk and comparing them to Weapons of Mass Destruction (which they are ABSOLUTELY capable of) was pretty damn clever

[@Byorin]

It seemed like a bit of foreshadowing that Ross and SHIELD could be considering a plan to take down Hulk and Thor. If this is true, it would strengthen Cap's argument that this type of authority would eventually manipulate the Avengers into performing missions that include going after their own, even without provocation.

[@arachnophilegrrl]

+Randompost we absolutely know that Ross has already been doing this with the Hulk in this continuity. The fact that he is the guy making this pitch to control the superheroes is VERY apt and telling. I love it and it just made my choice of, "team Cap," very easy.

[@IH8YH]

yeah WE know... but Team Cap probably doesnt. nor does TeamIronMan i would say

[@arachnophilegrrl]

+IH8YH likely true.

[@corneliusbroadnax546]

surprised they didn't mention the Spiderman- AT-ST death on Hoth reference

[@Ehmith]

That was great. I was wearing my Empire Strikes Back t-shirt too.

[@hotduelist]

+Emit Poe I was wearing my stormtrooper shirt on a whim lol

[@irongolem202]

+Cornelius Broadnax it was AT-AT but yeah lol xD I loved that line

[@MrLawlCakes]

+Irongolem101 Probably a typo lmao

[@misner1989]

+hotduelist I was wearing my flash t shirt too lol

[@TheSvmurai]

Cap seeing potential in Spiderman for that brief moment was SO COMIC I almost cried

[@SERPENTONORTHAM1992]

Another part I love about this movie is of how Spiderman has a bit of both young Steve Rogers qualities and Tony's smartass geek talking. Spiderman is EXACTLY like this in the comics. He gets on his enemies nerves, he is simple and righteous. He is really strong and a geek too. They also didn't stop there with the parallels of him with other heroes. He stopped a car in the youtube video, something that amazes Stark (who did the same in Ironman 1) and fought Captain, then losing and lifting the big airport thingy a feat that amazes Captain (who fought Winter Soldier, then got hurt but still lifted the big metal pillar) and then they exchange info about their hometowns Queens and Brooklyn with Cap saying the kid got heart. (which is a parallel to Cap's and Erskin's talk in First Avenger) I probably exaggerate things a bit (I also don't speak the best English sorry) but I really thinκ these specific interactions where placed there on purpose by Russo brothers (who also are Spidey fans) to introduce a hero that is part of the new generation to come, after the Infinity Wars. Oooh God I love this movie!

[@stvbrsn]

Spot on! And your English is fine. Much better than some native speakers I've heard.

[@SERPENTONORTHAM1992]

stvbrsn Thanks a lot :D

[@rachelautumn7866]

RED B.F.G SAGE that’s so cool, I’ve never thought of it this way! And don’t feel you need to apologize for your English, it’s very good!

[@trevorgolding9200]

Took the words out of my mouth! I'd like to think that my French is as good as the poster's English, but I doubt it. Haha. Interesting analysis of the flick & The characters, too!

[@michaelbalsamo9806]

they told you winter soldier killed the starks in winter soldier. thats why cap says i knew and didnt tell you

[@davidsykes6584]

+Michael Balsamo Yup, Arnim Zola shows Cap and Natasha while they're in the bunker. So that also means that Black Widow didn't let Stark aka 'Stank' know either.

[@michaelbalsamo9806]

David Sykes yeah, it was just agreed its a bad idea to tell him haha

[@DavidJordao]

The reveal of Bucky killing the Starks is actually hinted at in The Winter Soldier when Zola is showing Cap and Widow of all the assassinations Hydra was involved with. They show a quick picture of Howard Stark.

[@DrStrangefate]

+David Jordao That's how I knew it was Howard in the opening scene. The magazine article in Winter Soldier CLEARLY says Dec 17, 1991.

[@JohnDoe-ug3su]

I know this is an old comment, but your comment relate to the scene where Iron man asking Captain "did you know?" which is brilliant continuation. Yes Captain knows, Zola told him, but he kept it from Tony.

[@cesarlpz91]

John Doe I don’t think Zola told him but I’m sure he found out when black widow handed him the winter soldier file at the end of Winter Soldier.

[@mikeg155]

Nugget91Gaming The file Widow handed Cap was a KBG file about all the stuff they did to Bucky, not his missions. That’s why Zemo has to decrypt leaked files, interrogate the guy at the beginning, and make it to Bucky to get the info. It’s been implied that Cap had a suspicion Bucky did it, but choose to not investigate because he didn’t want to find that out. That’s why he never mentioned anything to Tony.

[@SageVallant]

I figured out where the movie was going... when I was trying to figure out what the point of showing Cap, Bucky, and Tony a home video was. And knowing that SOMEHOW the three of them were going to wind up fighting, because of the trailers. So literally about 20 seconds before the reveal proper.

[@TheStanStanmanson]

I love when Spiderman says he can't go to Germany because he has homework. It was actually relatable.

[@dennydarkko]

Like a young Spiderman should be

[@Pinko_Band]

These guys have such great chemistry together

[@meattoveggieconversions1340]

+John Thompson they are so good together that it's hard to watch one of them alone.

[@classict4_dhtg317]

Favorite moment in the movie: Tony: "Do you even remember them?" Bucky: "I remember all of them."

[@stephenalgu4363]

I watched it 2 hours ago and I can say definitely without no doubt, the airport battle was one of the best fight scenes in any superhero movie. Civil War was more than a superhero movie, it was another political thriller and was directed and choreographed perfectly. The performances too were grounded as well of the introduction of the new characters. Spider man, Black Panther and Antman were the stand outs of the movie. It also has some issues but other than that I would give it a 9/10.

[@thephantazm5139]

When Kev said I'm gonna cry I completely understood

[@Tarotiste]

You see the Shakespeare resounding heavily in the Thor films-with all the family drama between the brothers, and tension between the sons and the father.

[@sandrastevanovic4006]

I loved that little moment when ant-man said : "Here's your shield Captain America"

[@danielarshad5423]

+sandra stevanovic Ant-Man was maybe my favorite thing about the movie. The way he fangirls around the Avengers just gave me pure, unadulterated joy.

[@harleymama5421]

+Daniel Arshad i love spoilers!!! why?? cuz that makes me even want to see it more!!! fangirling? yes please! cracking up just thinking about it

[@danielarshad5423]

[@user-tq9fi4vn4x]

+grafton2 if anything, malaketh is jar jar

[@mickyblue011]

I know everyone loved Spiderman, lord knows I did too. But for me, the addition of Ant Man puts the biggest smile on my face.

[@joeysingingchannel]

Me too. He had some of the funniest lines/reactions, and Paul Rudd played him as a eager to please puppy dog just happy to be around Captain America. Perfection.

[@Deris87]

+Kristen ingram I think the Giant Man reveal definitely had more of the "wow" factor since we already had the Spider-man in the trailer. Definitely think Tom Holland is the best Peter Parker/Spider-man we've had yet though.

[@mickyblue011]

+Joey's Singing Channel Very well put. He was so eager to please and impress, Rudd was so charming.

[@Michael.Miles1]

Best scene for me is when Steve finally kisses Sharon then looks over to Sam and Bucky and they give him the approving nod. No words exchanged but it said so much!

[@TankNBeans]

+Roy Hobbs Can you move your seat up? .............No lol

[@Michael.Miles1]

Francisco Navarro Second best line in the movie. Lol

[@TankNBeans]

Hell yes lol

[@traviswight8987]

+Roy Hobbs I loved that part :)

[@TankNBeans]

It has the perfect amount of humor. Loved the Empire Strikes Back reference to lol

[@moonskeetz]

It's almost as if Black Widow was on caps side the whole time and knew he would benefit if she pretended to be on Tony's side. Am I right or am I right?

[@nigma6]

+Moon SKeetz We all know Black Widow loves Steve ain't know way she's gonna betray him when push comes to shove.

[@goldenstatewarriors9418]

Well not really. The only reason she sided with Tony is because if she sided with Steve, then that would split the Avengers futher. But when the chips are down, she's on Steve's side.

[@werewolfbymoonknight7613]

Black panther/spidey show and Paul Rudd is just a delight

[@sateeshmodukuru2]

They've established Winter Soldier killing Howard Stark in Captain America: Winder Soldier. Arnim Zola says "Accidents Happen" and the pictures shown are Howard and Bucky. That's how Cap knows that Bucky killed Howard.

[@rjq8273]

I read the implication as having been that the Starks were hit by Hydra, and Steve didn't connect the dots that Bucky would have been the one to carry it out. Perhaps through sheer willful ignorance, Cap just didn't want to face the possibility, which he confesses in his letter to Tony ("I see now I was really jut sparing myself" or something to that effect). To be perfectly honest, it never sank in for me either. I watched Winter Soldier many times, never occurred to me that Bucky was the one until now.

[@Blade658]

I like how people got scared of and got careful around Scarlet Witch the same way they did in the first Avengers with Bruce Banner as if they're too unstable when that's the exact environment they shouldn't be in. And how part of Team of Cap was to defend her as well, the way Tony treated Bruce like a human. It was a nice parallel.

[@chris200830]

The Captain America trilogy has become the absolute best superhero trilogy.

[@chris200830]

[@Lupin788]

+chris200830 Yeah, all too often in trilogies, the first 2 films are great but the 3rd instalment tries too hard and falls short. And that applies to non-superhero trilogies too.

[@coreyrivera8042]

i love how peter explains why he has the goggles on his old costume

[@ninboy01]

+Corey Rivera Super senses give him super sensitive eyes. That is a pretty good excuse for the innovation of the costume.

[@ninboy01]

***** He can probably self regulate. I got the sense that they portrayed Peter with an ADD type caricature. Even in the film he mentioned that it makes it difficult for him to focus. So, he most likely can function fine; but the excessive sensory stimulation is probably highly distracting. All the more reason why he would wear devices to narrow his focus. I wouldn't be surprised if he also wore earplugs.

I hope the Russo brothers make a black widow because she's the best version of herself in their movies.

[@adonisg7138]

I think if they do a Black Widow movie they should do it as a One Shot movie. I'm thinking just how she broke off from her brainwash assassin days and also put Hawkeye and nick fury. It could be a good movie

[@reyskywaka3202]

+Felix “FIGGS” Figueroa yes that would be amazing a black widow movie where they explore her past in the red room and how she ended up with shield also they need to tell us what the hell happened in Budapest!!

[@adonisg7138]

+rey skywaka exactly, just give her a shot. One movie to get in depth of her past and Hawkeye. Cause idk if people know this but she does have the super soldier serum in her, but it only makes her age slower and some super agility, another reason she supposedly can't have children.

+Matt Dargis Right?? They even mentioned Empire in the review and didn't reference that part haha

[@leoda9215]

If we're looking for a classic series to compare to, a better comparison for the Captain America trilogy would be the "Dollars trilogy" (aka The Man with No Name trilogy). All three installments are considered great examples of the genre, with each one also being regarded as better and more ambitious than the last. The first movie is a relatively straightforward genre film, the second introduces a strong friend/foe for the hero, and the third is an epic that juggles a larger cast of characters. Civil War is The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly of Comic Book Movies

[@highjim7778]

+leo da how fucking DARE you compare this trash to those 3 great westerns, thats like putting purfume on a pig. The Capt America films are awful

[@thebigmick1977]

+leo da Good comparison. Hadn't thought of that, but that is spot on.

[@disregardthat]

+leo da Great comparison, I totally see what you mean, even to the extent that I personally prefer both For A Few Dollars More and The Winter Soldier in each trilogy (while still loving all the others)!

[@leoda9215]

No one agrees with you

[@leoda9215]

[@gp8052]

Well i thought the reveal at the final third wasnt all surprising as Armin zola alludes to it in Captain america winter solider on the screen when he is distracting cap

[@TwenteeEight]

Captain America: Civil War is the most creative superhero movie ever made.

[@jaredwaters4633]

Great job! I'm happy to hear Kevin defend Iron Man 2. Was it a perfect movie, NO. But it had a lot more good than bad. Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer was amazing-- his "Ex-Wife" weapons demo monologue is one of the greatest comedy scenes in all of Marvel's films. Also, I dare anyone to say they didn't geek out watching Iron Man and War Machine kicking arse at the end of the film. The mix of humor and action is perfect. It's a highly entertaining film even with some of the slow world building plots in the middle.

[@FullmetalAsian]

yea i think IM 2 and 3 get more flak then they should. werent perfect but were definitely entertaining.

[@jaredwaters4633]

Nate Robinson I agree, as for pure entertainment I think the Iron Man trilogy may be my favorite.

[@RevengeOfThaNerd]

I could still be nerd high, but this was the best comic book movie I've seen. Have to see it again tomorrow morning. Every character was handled properly, the plot was really well laid out, you knew why everyone chose which side, and the action omg. I thought they were going to do the shakey cam thing all movie so I was worried at first. The fight scenes were amazing and they used Black Panther so damn well, thanks Marvel and Chadwick for that, it really meant a lot to me.

I swear to you Kev and Marc, if Fox comes to the table and the X-men make any kind of appearance in Infinity War, I will weep like a baby. I loved this flick for so much but that moment, where he was there with Tony, it was euphoric!

[@GrimmsHorrorShow]

... I fuckin love you guys, don't EVER stop.

[@Got-Raider-Camus]

39:51 I honestly didn't think it was so surprising. During Winter Soldier when Cap is talking to Zola, he shows a picture of Howard Stark and says something like "sacrifices had to be made" stating Hydra killed Howard Stark. And in every shot they showed the Winter soldier killing someone in flashes. It seemed like a easy connection to jump to that Bucky was ordered to take him out. I also think he killed Kennedy apparently lol

[@graymyers]

Well ya. Super soldier syrum is from Howard Stark. And those packs were the Stark Industries blue. If you thought about it you could've figured it out, I didn't, but retrospectively it was obvious

[@sateeshmodukuru2]

+nytolstoy They clearly show that Bucky killed Howard in Winter Soldier. Zola says "Accidents Happen" and the picture on the screen are Howard and Bucky,

[@Got-Raider-Camus]

Yea that's why i said lol that kept showing flashes of Bucky's arm and body.

[@Got-Raider-Camus]

Grayson Myers Well actually no, the super serum was made from another scientist, a German one, Stark used his machines to make enough power to use the serum. I'm guessing over the next 40 years or so, Howard Stark was able to almost duplicate it.

[@adamstafford3852]

HAHAHA THE BLUTH STAIRCAR!!!! KEVIN SAW IT! I knew I saw it but it happened so fast.

[@ericslater460]

What's the bluth staircar?

[@traviswight8987]

+Eric Slater go watch arrested development

[@ashleymccartin8552]

Never commented on any video before in my life. But Kevin freaking Smith just sang Bowie/Labyrinth and my life has forever been made just a little bit better for it. Thank you!!

[@guy3090]

i cant believe you guys didnt talk about Sharon carter speech, 'compromise when you can but when you cant DONT. . . .even if everyone is telling you to move, plant yourself like a tree and tell them to move". . . .made me want to suit up. . . .

[@monkeypro]

I'm happy that this didn't follow the comic story. The comic vilified Iron Man. Tony Stark was the main villian of Civil War. The movie, however, makes you actually feel for both sides. The comic attempted to make you understand both sides and at the beginning kinda succeeds, but the longer it went on Tony just made more and more villain type decisions. The movie does a wonderful job of making you actually care for not only both sides of the issue but each and every character individually.

[@avxx0035]

+Nicholas Robinson Exactly , Like that panel with Daredevil where he says to Tony that he's a Judas , That couldn't have happened here because Tony did what he absolutely had to do .

[@JasonRBeing]

Empire Strikes Back, you mean that really old movie?

[@Crasho327]

I didn't the ending coming either other than when they were going to Siberia and I remembered the trailer with Cap and Bucky fighting Iron Man. That's when I started to think something was up but even still I didn't see it coming until the flash back. I totally agree with you in that I was on Cap's side until the big reveal. Suddenly I was feeling it for Stark. Dudes, I loved Iron Man 2 more than Iron Man. I agree with you. Mickey Rourke going nuts with a bad Russian accent is gold, man.

[@LLCoolJo3l]

12:23 "Mark, we don't have to lower any one to raise someone up!" Way to come to BVS's defense! Love it!!!

[@URAWESOME94]

Kevin is easily within the top ten people ever. you could chill with that dude and not get bored. it could be the end of the world and a hangout with him would have you wetting your pants laughing. jesus could be depending in the clouds and a few remarks from this man would force him to ascend back up let the laughter out then come back down. completely down to earth. respect.

[@dragonstryk7280]

to the people arguing about how Civil War wasn't like the comic books version.... the comic version was nowhere NEAR as good as the movie version.

[@713Fro1]

exactly!

[@irongolem202]

+Sean “DragonStryk72” McTiernan yeah who gives a shit about the comic version, this is a separate universe and if they did it exactly the same then we would know everything going in plus they couldn't physically do that comics version due to rights, and characters not being introduce so who cares it is one of the best superhero and just action movies to date

[@dragonstryk7280]

+Irongolem101 well, moreover, they botched balance, and Tony went straight down the Super villain tree, and hit most of the branches on the way down.

[@KouD3Graw]

+Sean “DragonStryk72” McTiernan Yea the comics would bring of the same points over and over and over and over. It's like "We get it" but, it wasn't a great balance between the two sides. Like I could understand Caps side way more than Tony's. It was a great idea but, it was a huge event in the comics. Stretched thin as fuck. This movie compacted and used what it needed along with working with how the MCU is now. I was wondering if people that seen the movie were greatly tight lipped on Caps death but, it didn't end that way at all. After seeing the movie I'm glad it didn't follow the comics closely. The brothers handled this story, movie, and turning point in the MCU better than I've EVER would have thought.

[@BarbaPamino]

I doubt most people complaining actually read the comic, just complaining to lash back at people that justifiably complain about what DC is doing when they change the comic. The two differences is when Marvel has changed the stories it's usually for the better where as DC has done it for the worse, and despite changing aspects Marvel keeps the essence of the characters strong in their films where as DC has changed huge aspects of who there characters are. And the problem with that is that the DC characters are in essence already do good and no need to change them.

[@rbelljr29]

10:40 for actual start of review.

[@airtmcdaniel2015]

Goodfellas Kev Civil War is the Goodfellas of comic book movies

[@gardielhidalgo5045]

TOKAGERO1 bye Felicia

[@JulesGunn]

Fun fact: The excellent chase sequence in the tunnel was filmed using a version of those people-mover conveyer belt things found in airports to render the illusion of Cap, Buck, and Panther running faster than the cars. Brilliant!

[@Humanipathic]

Bucky: You couldnt have done that earlier Sam: I hate you. Lmao

[@SeanTheOriginal]

10:23 to skip the lootcrate shit.

[@SupermanBlack1987]

+SeanTheOriginal But Kevin makes the best ads. :D

[@IH8YH]

Crossbones Fists thingy was bascially nothing else than the FALLOUT POWERFIST

[@62SG]

I really love the emphasis on emotion in this movie, and particularly the close bond between two people. We had it with Cap and Bucky of course, but it was also there were Tony and Rhodey, and Natasha and Clint, and T'Challa and his father, and Scarlet Witch and Vision. The movie does a lot of work to bring these relationships to the forefront and hinge the plot off them. The whole movie is basically people acting logically in response to heavy emotions. Bad things happen that make people feel like shit and they try to make that better. Some characters seek revenge, others seek to just rectify perceived wrongs, and Cap just wants to hold onto his friend who (with Peggy dead) is his only link to his old life. Tony's immediate motivator in this movie is the emotional reaction to finding out he indirectly led to the death of a good and innocent person, whereas in the book he supported the registration act out of cold futurist logic. Everyone reacts how you'd expect them to, everybody acts logically and it all fucking works.

[@lindyxmjh4589]

+James Fielding All except for the forgettable Cap/Sharon bond, that was rushed and didn't work.

[@willvergeli]

Only disagreement I have is I believe Zemo HAD to know that Bucky killed the Starks BEFORE he embarked on his revenge plot. His entire plan hung on that detail being exposed to Tony. All he needed was the proof to unveil.

[@BrandonMcBarrettFace]

Even though i was kind of rooting for Stark, I loved how Cap delivers the same line to Stark during their final fight that he delivered pre-super sokdier in the alleyway in his first movie: "I could do this all day", before Bucky bails him out again.

[@Wolfman7870]

Funny how the soldier is the one that doesn't want to work for the government and the private industrialist that didn't want to hand his technology over to the government like three movies ago, is the one that does want to be a government lap dog. You believe it because the movie is just so damn good and with the events of previous movies, those character arcs seem like a logical progression despite how much it goes against each character's backgrounds.

[@samufish]

I thought that was weird also lol
