A shadow from Steve Rogers/Captain America's past rises from the cold: because of the way this film has been designed [mystery or mysteries.] I don't know what to say here other than it fits into the model of espionage which in turn would explain the pacing of 136 minutes sequel it is good, but if you are expecting a full throttle film this isn't it, it does have a change of gear to it at its disposal when it needs to change up or down, but as I have already made reference to it is more about espionage, consequently it is about finding clues or information or other things.

The action and comedy; we have moments where these naturally combined for two examples; Steve Rogers a.k.a. Captain America [Chris Evans] has gone for a run and obviously because he is a super soldier he is much, much faster than another soldier which has also gone for a run at this time Sam Wilson a.k.a. Falcon [Anthony Mackie] where we will see/hear Steve repeatedly saying " On your left" [because Steve continuously lap Sam around this Washington landmark Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool next to another landmark Washington Monument] which Sam does get a little bit frustrated by this he says " Don't say it" or things of this nature. Next Steve Rogers/Captain America in this elevator things begin to dawn on him that he is in a hostile situation, so be for they begin this highly entertaining action sequence, he gives anyone the option to get out before they begin.

Yes of course all the other action sequences are hard-hitting and free-flowing; Captain America vs. The Winter Soldier/I know he has another identity, but as this is a mystery I will deliberately miss it out here [Sebastian Stan] or The Winter Soldier vs. Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow [Scarlett Johansson;] this action sequence has also been given a hard-hitting nature I know it is small but still holds fantastic value, as at this point everyone should know by now she can handle herself, but win lose or draw it reinforces that any stage be it past, present or future she will always be a massive asset and on top of that we learn more about her in this film as well.

Character developments and performances; as I have just made reference to the character developments have been well progressed as you come to expect from the MCU [Marvel Cinematic Universe] and generally speaking the performances and voice performance are all good, but for our newcomer Sam Wilson/Felton [Anthony Mackie;] he slots in perfectly and quickly get up to speed with our recurring characters/performers. Now just in case I get called out on this; I think what they were trying to do with this character is publicly he makes reference to being happy in civilian life, but privately he is still up for the fight, probably just waiting for the right course to find him.

The art; there is a pleasing to the eyes ending credits sequence accompanying the ending credits in the first section; It accompanies this film very well as it has been also done in the style of espionage, we have a limited amount of colours being used like black, white and red and on top of that he was a friendly heads up there is one extra scene at the end of both ending credits so altogether there is two ending credits.

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; this film moves things on and offers a lot of hard-hitting action in one way or another, yes of course this film has awards accredited to it. 5 Winners including IGN Summer Movie Awards 2014; IGN Award Best Comic Book Adaptation Movie. 52 Nominees including Academy Awards, USA 2015; Oscar Best Achievement in Visual Effects Dan DeLeeuw Russell Earl Bryan Grill Daniel Sudick.
