Reaction: Captain America overtook Titans: Evil Incarnate as the highest grossing film of the season so far to end the first half of Season 26 on a high note.
"Glen Powell perfectly introduces Captain America to Last Resort Films with his performance here. In fact, the casting is pretty spot on throughout. I appreciated that the film didn't just do a simple rehash of the origin for its entire running time. Both time periods work on their own merits in the story with the script doing as good of a job as possible to bridge them." - Dave Manning, Ridgefield Press
"While I enjoyed LRF’s Captain America as a whole, it still covered some plot points that were hit in the MCU’s version. Glen Powell was great as Cap, and for the most parts the changes made for his origin worked. It almost felt like more than one movie crammed in here, but as I said as a whole I enjoyed Captain America and can’t wait to see what follows." - J. Darrell Ellington, Behind the Camera
"Even though it feels like two movies in one, D.R. tries his best to reinvent Steve Rogers without drawing comparisons to previous films (a feat that is undoubtedly challenging for every writer doing the other Avengers too). Glen Powell is a perfect fit for the role, paving the way for a great future as a leading man. Although the story is fairly simple and straightforward, its inclusion in the larger Marvel scheme makes the last half of the movie an enjoyable popcorn-munching blockbuster experience. Additionally, Selleck's portrayal of senior Tony is like a cherry on top, making the film even more enjoyable." - Rebecca Cruyssen, CNN.com
Rated PG-13 for sequences of intense action and war violence and scenes of peril
