Welcome to the Reel Review. I have created this blog because I tend to disagree with all of the movie reviews I read in the paper. I can no longer stand by while the movies I love get slammed and the worst of them all get 5 stars. It has got to the point where I choose the movies I see based on how little stars they get in the paper. Half a star has become a must see for me. 5 stars – I don’t even bother. Please feel free to agree or disagree with my reviews because that’s what it’s all about. I hope you enjoy the REEL REVIEW!!

CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER
"Way better than the first" - Me
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Don’t get me wrong, if I had the Avengers lined up in the school playground, I would still pick Captain America last for my team but that being said, this newest instalment makes it a closer call. So look out, bow and arrow guy.
The movie follows on from the Avengers movie. The Captain is still struggling with his giant leap forward in time but still manages to kick the shit out of everyone (there is a lot of hectic kicking in this movie) within minutes of the movie. A few familiar characters help him out and the storyline ties in nicely with the rest of the Marvel movie franchise without making it painfully obvious. There’s also some cameos to mention; Georges St Pierre of UFC fame pretty plays the first bad guy out of the blocks and Drazic from Heartbreak High (i'm sure he has a name, but he will always be Drazic to me) also has a couple of lines in the movie. Samuel L Jackson also keeps his record of being in every movie ever made.
The newest Captain America has everything you need in a superhero movie. Good triumphing over evil, Scarlett Johansson spinning and kicking all over the shop, a couple of twists, Samuel L Jackson and just the right number of corny one-liners. Go and see it.
