Lecter is allowed to speak about films anyway he wants to, just as you and I are. It's up to his readers to decide how much stock they put in his opinion.

You can get upset about it, but it's silly to.

Did you actively state that people should not see the film? Because if so, then I believe that's the incorrect, and dick-ish, thing to do.


Even though I have not done it in this review, this is still a ridiculpus thing to say. I do see it as one of my objectives to direct people to what I perceive to be good movies and since money available for seeing movies is limited for most people, yes, I do recommend them not to see some at certain points.

In this case, the review simply spoke for itself. Anything else brewed in your fervent imagination, which I deliberately did not correct.

It's silly to tell people not to see a movie.

If people still really want to see it, they will. I don't see why this matters so much to you.

I thought this was a notch below Winter Soldier, but still fantastic. Really fast paced and fun, and Paul Rudd and Tom Holland definitely stole the show. The action sequences were all incredibly well-directed and exciting. I did think Bruhl was a poor villain though. A-

Wooooooow. Exceeded my expectations. Most notably, Spider-Man. Holy crap he is perfect. Loved every second he was on screen. Chadwick Boseman was stellar. One of the best things about the movie. I am so excited for his solo outing now. What a first appearance. Obviously the "Civil War" was great. The airport scene was just out of this world fun and Ant-Man was a big part of that. Loved Rudd's deliveries and everything about that character. I was getting serious anxiety during the final bout because I though Cap was gonna do it. I really felt all the emotions during that whole sequence. Great acting by RDJ and Evans. Bravo. I figured Zemo was gonna be virtually nothing. Not surprised that he was kinda lame but leaving the door open for more of him has me intrigued because I like the character in the comics and they could do some cool stuff. Overall, this was everything I wanted out of Marvel movie. Russo's did a great job.

A

Power Ranking of the Best Supes on this movie:
1. Spider-Man
2. Black Panther
3. Cap/Iron Man

Movie doesn't hold up that well on second viewing.

Love the use of Antman though. Falcon had some funny lines too.

The comedic bits all work (the Falcon/Bucky bro moments are fantastic, espically when they give approval of Steve kissing the niece of his recently deceased first love)

Bucky telling Falcon to move the seat up was also hilarious.

and the last 20min feels pretty anti climatic and it forces so much shit
Definitely disagree with this. The finale is pivoted on a plot twist that's been waiting to drop since Winter Soldier, and the final fight is just brutal as fuck. It's a testament to just how intense things get that I, EVEN THOUGH I FUCKING KNOW BETTER, for a split second thought Steve was going to take his damn head off.

The letter is definitely more problematic, since it's basically the film trying to make its cake and eat it too. I think it kind of works since Tony never comes close to reaching the psychopathic stupidity of his comic-book counterpart; he's still inherently a good guy here. And Steve saying he'll be there when shit goes down, well, that's because he's a goddamned hero.

War Machine getting shot down and the Bucky/Cap/Iron Man fight bit shouldn't have been shown in the trailers. Dumb.

And War Machine should've just died. Does anyone really give a fuck about him?

No you don't need to see Ant-Man there are just 2 references from that movie and both are just passing comments though I would recommend to see it on its own because its funny and a good origins movie.

Civil War, Iron Man, Guardians of the Galaxy perfectly hold up on repeat viewings.

You haven't seen Civil War twice. But I assume since you're a Marvel shill, you already saw it once.

This holds up very well on repeat viewings and so does TWS.
