This Captain doesn't have the usual superhero glamour or self-coolness. But he is a hero we can relate with. A begone hero. IMO...the movie will become a fan favorite and make Chris Evans (Captain America) a known name (been around for some 10 years). It's not the plot (been done before) that will entertain you as much as the character and look. BTW...great looking shield.
A guy from Brooklyn is rejected by the Army. The pre captain CGI look (Steve Rogers) is terrific. He meets Dr. Erskine (another terrific performance form Stanley Tucci) who will use his secret injection that transforms Steve from a skinny kid into someone we can believe in. Particularly his crusade against Red Skull (Hugo Weaving)
IMO...this is miles above anything you have seen this summer or spring. Thor, Green Lantern, etc are no competition
B (3 stars)

PS: Director Joe Johnson also did "The Rocketeer", another favorite of mine
