Movie Review: Captain America Movie Trailer

Captain America, leader of the Avengers, will soon be in motion picture in theaters this summer. So all the marvel fans can gear up and get excited as the film’s first official trailer is now out to the public.

This trailer shows Captain America’s background and origin starting with Rogers (Chris Evans) volunteering himself for the “Super –Soldier” secret project called Project: Rebirth. Too scrawny to fight in the war, the recruitment office rejects his admission into the army, so Rogers is forced to find other alternatives to fight for his country during WWII. He is then chosen for the project where scientists inject serum into his scrawny little body, and then BOOM! Instantly, he is turned into a mega-super-ultra fighter for the Allies side known as Captain America.

Rogers is then equipped with his legendary shield that is indestructible to bullets. Joined by his sidekick Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), he will soon go head to head against Hitler’s head of advanced weaponry, known as The Red Skull (Hugo Weaving).

The special effects in this upcoming film look amazing, although it was a little weird seeing Chris Evans as a shrunken little man in the beginning of the film. Instead of the bright red, blue and white colors like Captain America’s suit usually is, they have darkened the colors a bit, making him more realistic.

The music is very compelling and suspenseful as it pumps your heart, making up wanting to hear and see more. There will also be the strong cast characters in the story such as the gruff Colonel Chester Phillips (Tommy Lee Jones) whose powerful speech on the Super-Soldier project is heard in most of the trailer’s background sound as Chris Evans goes through his transformation, Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper) who will be the future father of Tony Stark and will be the man responsible for designing the costume ensemble for Captain America, Dr. Abraham Erksine (Stanley Tucci) who creates the Super Soldier serum, and Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) who is a freedom fighter and the love interest of Captain America.

The trailer is very convincing and creates a very strong lure for both the fanatics of Captain America and also the women fans of Chris Evans.  This may be one of his greatest performances yet.
