Civil War: Stronger than vibranium

Captain America's newest installment delivers exceptional experience
Matthew Cooper, Reviews Editor • May 11, 2016
Captain America: The First Avenger was a fun piece of World War II action pulp that helped set up the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe, while Captain America: The Winter Soldier towered above it as much more serious political thriller.
