There's lots of bangs and crashes and a reasonably decent plot, but is a Superhero movie at heart despite higher ambitions. All the team turn up, so it ends up being an Avengers movie without the Avengers, but the acting is ok, if a little pedestrian (it seems a long time ago since Robert Redford was in All The President's Men) and there's a fair number of cameo's, but it's Samuel Jackson, as Nick Fury, and Chris Evans, as th' Cap', that drive the movie.
... about programming, growing up in the 1970's and 80's, games, science fiction, working in a charity book shop, films, spending too much time watching television, living in Basildon and Essex, and whatever else emerges from my fevered imagination.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Being (relatively) cheap Tuesday at Empire Cinemas on th' BasVegas Strip, I took advantage and went to see the latest in the Marvel Avengers franchise. Now an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Steve Rogers, a.k.a. Captain America, is confronted with a conspiracy when Nick Fury is attacked.
