How does one become an on-film character that not only represents a nation but is the leader of what will be a decade+ of Marvel Cinematic Universal entries that will last a lifetime? The worry, beyond casting Captain America, was how on Earth could we take a strapping (and hopefully talented) actor, toss him into a red, white and blue skin-tight suit, strap a shield to his forearm and not get laughed out of theaters across the planet? The answer? FUNCTION. While many of the things you see are cleary from the realm of comic book realms, Marvel found a talented, strapping actor, they got the suit, shield and patriotism to work, and it really does propel the very FIRST offering for Captain America in the MCU. Curious to see what WE thought were great moments? Curious to understand just what a blockbuster this feature film was?
