This was even better than the first one. They were both good, but this one is contemporary, so we have all the rest we know. Captain America (Chris Evans) is working for the Shield, which is an acronym for something I'll never remember, sorry, but doesn't matter because I can always find it written on some Shield symbol if I care to. Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) uses him for mission, but Steve is a little pissed off because Fury never tells the whole story, always hides something, never trusts his people... of course he's just a soldier, so he doesn't understand the whole of Fury's work, and the fact that he has to keep secrets, because he knows you can never know who you can trust. Still, he's pretty sure he can trust Rogers, so after people try to kill him, apparently succeeding, he leaves something to him. Together with Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson), the Black Widow for reasons I don't know, they try to uncover who's behind it. They'll find out that Dr Armin Zola's mind, put into a big computer, was able to carry on Hydra's cause, that the Shield has being more than infiltrated by it. Nick Fury is still alive of course, but his friend Alexander Pierce (Robert Redford) is part of Hydra, and had him eliminated. No surprise there. What was really something was that a notorious assassin working for hydra is revealed to have Bucky's face. It would appear Bucky (Sebastian Stan) didn't die, probably because of the experiments made on him, and became their puppet. They brainwashed him, using him for their mission. Bucky doesn't remember him, and they fight. The beautiful scene was after Cap completed his mission. At that point he didn't have to fight Bucky anymore. Bucky has always been the most important person for him, always with him, and he can't fight him. At the end, Bucky saves him and then goes away, hopefully not back to be brainwashed again!
To help Cap this film there was Falcon (Anthony Mackie), Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders) loyal to Fury, and Agent 13 (Emily VanCamp). Cute.
Nice the scene when everybody decides who follow : "captain's orders" . Nice!
Here, it is stated clearly that Howard Stark was Tony's father, but come on, that was reasonable in the comics, because it was some time ago. Now, that would mean that Howard was flying planes and building weapons in the second world war, and Tony is joining the avengers in 2012... Howard would easierly be his grandfather.
Still, doesn't matter. These films are big big toys for us to play with, and I enjoy them a lot. :-D
