I have to agree. Captain America 2 took the main characters story and the mcu to a whole new level. It was great to see Steve Rogers continue to learn to adapt himself into the modern era. The action in this movie was also top notch.

[@FullFatVideos]

Top notch!!!! Game changer

[@asellape9270]

I think this movie has the best of Natasha Romanoff, Nick Fury, and Steve Rogers across the entire MCU. And the way that this movie sets up ideas and carries them through the entire duration is great; Nat trying to set Steve up for a date, Fury and Pierce’s mission history, “what is Sitwell doing on a satellite ship,” etc.

[@jeremy1860]

In an era where so many heroes had to be some variety of snarky or brooding, I love how we had one who was just good and nice 😊

[@knightbot4052]

This is a trend I'm glad to see we're in the early stages of leaving behind. Creatives have begun to realize that characters can be earnest and kind while still being capable and engaging. There are other ways to show intelligence beside snark, quips, and sass. I think My Adventures With Superman was what really made me hopeful we had turned a corner away from the irreverent heroes of the last decade.

[@callmev3531]

While still having that character be willing to back up their honor and morality with the ability to fight for their ideals. Steve is repeatedly tested physically and morally, and in the best of situations his moral sensibilities allow him to inspire and lead others. However, they also allow him to be flawed, his rigid values occasionally veering into stubbornness and (at least in the first Avengers film), sanctimony, which can contribute towards his failures, especially when working with others that aren’t as rigid as him. But his grief over his all that he has sacrificed, his desire to keep Bucky in his life, is his greatest vulnerability, the thing that compels him to act selfishly and forget his “mission”, showing that despite all his virtues, he is still a mortal man deep down.

I feel this movie is how you take a "goodie-goodie character" and make him cool and badass without making him morally questionable or edgy or anything like that and while still keeping his morals and values. Still my favorite MCU movie 😊

[@montenegroafro4454]

The Winter Soldier is still my #1 favourite movie in all the mcu to this day! Even though Tony Stark is my favourite Avenger, the quality of Winter Soldier was just…thrilling, real, grey, realistically comical, even politically scary at times! Also that elevator fight scene was the most creative setting for a fight and the execution was just god-tier!!

[@spicyboi544]

Gosh, I still get goosebumps whenever cap asks if anyone wants to leave the elevator before they begin. and the callback in infinity war where he gets out of the situation tactically instead of through force. so cool!

[@that_colin_guy]

Winter Soldier is my favorite stand alone MCU film. That being said, I'll defend the first Captain America film to the bitter end. I'd argue that movie HAD to be the way it was and it executed what it set out to do - which was establish Caps back story and prep his character to be pulled forward into the modern era.

[@kevinw712]

hey ya don't gotta tell me brother, I have always had exactly the same pick for "most underrated MCU movie", and that pick is FIRST AVENGER. It's only the most "inferior" of the Cap trilogy by way of the second two simply being that friggin good. It's like trying to compare BTTF 1 and 2. (edit) in fact now I think about it, it feels like a very similar example to me of THE WOLVERINE and LOGAN. Because I'd probably say THE WOLVERINE is the most underrated of all Fox X-Men flicks, and I think automatically gets looked upon less because the stone cold classic LOGAN is.

[@popuri48]

I agree! I adore First Avenger and its focus on properly developing Steve and showcasing his personality. Since Captain America started as propaganda, the first issue of his comics have nothing in the way of backstory for him. First Avenger, however, gives great insight into who Steve is and why you should care. Not to mention I love that they made the movie into sort of a period piece too, which stands out in contrast to the other MCU movies (kind of in a way that Winter Soldier stands out as a bit of a spy thriller). It’s definitely an extremely underrated movie.

[@thatstheway2429]

First cap reminds me of Batman Begins. I think the first half of the film was absolutely brilliant for an origin story. I think the second half was a bit clunky, particularly with a pretty generic “evil” villain that wasn’t that captivating. The second and third Caps are awesome and helped by the fact that at various times you had wonderful antagonists: Bucky, Zemo, Tony and even T’Challa for a certain part.

[@SmashBrosAssemble]

It seems revisionism has turned its ugly head towards Cap: Winter Soldier, I’ve been seeing on Twitter loads of people saying the action in this film is overly choppy in its editing & you can’t see what’s happening. It’s not, the action in this film is brilliant, if you want overly choppy editing, watch anything by Paul W.S. Anderson, the editing in his movies is ridiculous, particularly his last Resident Evil movie. You can clearly see what’s happening in the action of Winter Soldier, you don’t have 3 seconds of footage & there’s about 9 cuts in it.

[@lazaroskarmaniolas7410]

"I’ve been seeing on Twitter loads of people" See, that's your problem. Taking what Twitter users say seriously.

[@ishathakor]

people on twitter have nothing better to do than to make up shit to be mad about. captws is nearly the perfect superhero movie and the only thing that lets it down is making everything hydra's fault at the last minute. hydra can still be involved but i think it's a huge cop out to remove all the government surveillence stuff in favour of don't worry it was just the nazis we don't need to have themes. everything else is literally perfect. the action is still some of the best i've ever seen. that first bucky/steve fight where steve loses his shield still hits it's completely perfect. i genuinely think this movie has the best fight choreography of any mcu movie.

[@kevinw712]

@@lazaroskarmaniolas7410 yeah but to be fair, for that matter you could say "your problem is taking what KZbin users say seriously", that would be just as valid. You're gonna get your share of poor and/or bad faith arguments for comic book stuff (or really movies in general) across any social media, I'm honestly not sure that twitter is necessarily better or worse in that regard (those being VERY relative terms in this case lol). I'm not all surprised by the OP's observations, not even just by way of the time on the calendar, but it feels like there's been a certain level of backlash to the Russos in general now the last couple years. And I'm not even sure it's all that unfairly, between both the quality of all of their non-MCU output so far, and some of their opinions on film in general, AI, and other emerging technologies. I've loved them since Arrested Development but I have wondered if it's been a case of them loving the smell of their own farts, so to speak lol

Really shows how far the MCU has fallen from grace. In the time period between Winter Soldier and Endgame they were putting out consistent bangers every year that all interlinked to serve the overall infinity narrative. In the time period between Endgame and now, we've gotten maybe 3 gems sprinkled in amongst a flood of truly awful mass produced drivel that has no overall cohesion or direction. I'm hopeful for Deadpool 3 but I think it's probably just time to let the superhero genre die

[@joseandres7075]

One of the things I love about this movie is the time it was released and the perception of the character at that time. Before "The First Avenger" I was not such a fan of Cap (16 yo at the time) mostly out of ignorance, I was more into Deadpool. I started to read Cap's comics and got a better idea of him. In "The Avengers" everyone loved Stark and his snarky lines, while Steve, as Honest Trailers puts it, was "nobody's favorite Avenger", but he was my favorite already. I knew that Cap had more to offer, that he wasn't just a stiff, boring self-righteous dude throwing around a shield. CA:TWS arrived. And boy did Cap shut some mouths. It gave me so much pleasure to see the character in all of his glory. It was what I always knew it could be. Honest Trailers said at the end of their TWS video "He's Cool now". He always was, you just didn't know that.

[@REIDiculous64]

In general I consider 2014 to be one of the best years for modern movies with 2 all time great MCU movies, Interstellar, Godzilla, X-Men, Edge of Tomorrow, John Wick, The Lego Movie and many more. It could just be nostalgia but honestly I still watch many of these movies regularly and think they are better than a lot of stuff today. If anyone is not interested in the movies coming out right now go do a watch party of movies from 2014 you won’t be disappointed.

In fact the uploading of it in 2015 was the purpose of me creating my Reddit account lol It got enough exposure that the entertainment blog The Daily Dot actually interviewed me about doing it and one other site talked a lot about it in an article about fan edits and Marvel continuity.

I know right

[@Basicph33r]

Still stands as my fav movie.

[@FullFatVideos]

Same!

[@BitoyV3]

This movie is still the gold standard for MCU fare. A decade after this movie is out, I have a Captain America stealth suit hoodie in my rotation.

[@LordZolric]

Love that stealth suit.

[@FullFatVideos]

The best!

Winter Soldier is still peak MCU and while continuing to build or even sustain that quality is extremely difficult, as long as the plot and character elements stay consistent you can reach those highs again as we nearly did for Civil War and Infinity War but Marvel lost the lynchpins to that timeline. To recapture my interest I need a new model: plot (the writing, storyboarding) and character ( particularly casting). They've done more to harm the brand in the last 5 years than they have to transition.

the end credit still hits hard even now...

This movie really was a wake up call for me towards Cap as a character and its still my favorite MCU film to this date 🙌🏾

[@chasecummings1529]

I’ve seen movie so many god damn times my first one stopped working and I had to buy a second copy haha, such a masterpiece and a huge reason why cap is my fav MCU character

This movie was also partly adapting the zeitgeist of the time - the Edward Snowdon saga. The paranoia of is the govt shady and are we truly doing the right thing as an individual and as a nation were high. Hydra infiltration coming to light invoked the same feeling. That genuinely resonated and made the film more relatable. This is an often overlooked take.

10:56 that was captain falcon levels of awesomness

[@captainjerry4146]

2013-2014 was great for superhero movies all together

[@danzemacabre8899]

Dark Knight and Winter Soldier , the standard bearers in superhero action flicks

[@j.p.obregon1415]

2014 also gave rise to Agents of Shield. Even though it wasn't technically MCU, it was still an incredible show, and was a great supplement to the great movies coming out.

[@MotivationalGrindForLife]

never gets old!!

[@puniopenetrante]

You remarked the Cap vs Quinjet but you forgot to praise that awesome landing with the star spangled shield front point.

I cannot believe it’s been 10 years! This movie is fantastic, and I watched it twice when I was at Air Force Tech School. It’s such a great movie! I sincerely believe it’s the best of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
