Suspenseful and politically astute, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is a superior entry in the avenger canon and is sure to thrill Marvel diehards! After being deemed unfit for military service, Steve Rogers volunteers for a top-secret research project that turns him into Captain America, a superhero dedicated to defending America’s ideals!
The sequel to the 2011 original starring Chris Evans as the Super Soldier grossed an estimated $96.2 million this opening weekend, earning an “A” CinemaScore from its audiences. Its opening is all the more impressive when you consider that, while it falls beneath “The Avengers” and “Iron Man 3” and “2,” it outranks many of the stand-alone Marvel character debuts, including both “Thor” films and the original “Captain America,” which it out-grossed by 48 percent. (It nabbed an additional $110 million from audiences overseas.)- CNN.com
This movie’s gross earnings for its first domestic weekend set a new record for the month of April! It’s going to be quite difficult to see a Marvel movie that meets these expectations in the broad scheme of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
