Overall, I liked it.<\/p>\n

It was not a bad movie, nor a great movie.<\/p>\n

It felt to me like a bunch of set pieces\/action scenes that were put together around something of a plot.<\/p>\n

Anthony Mackie was great as Captain America.<\/p>\n

Danny Ramirez was okay as Falcon.<\/p>\n

Nothing really jumped out at me as significant, but like others have said elsewhere, this feels like it set up so much for the next few movies, and at the same time it tied up a bunch of loose ends in the MCU, dating back to 2008.<\/p>\n

What did stand out (and I may be biased) was Harrison Ford taking over the role of Thunderbolt Ross from the late great William Hurt.\u00a0 He and Mackie carried the film.\u00a0 A lot of the supporting characters seemed flat to me, including the main villain.<\/p>\n

There were a couple of cameos that surprised me, though on reflection they shouldn’t have.<\/p>\n

This film was better than a majority of Marvel films that came out after Endgame<\/em>, which isn’t saying much, of course, but I would rank it above Eternals<\/em>, and I actually liked Eternals<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Here’s hoping Thunderbolts*<\/em> lives up to it’s hype in May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
