Movie Review: Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) walks a lonely road. Since awakening from his arctic slumber, he
wanders through life in a perpetual state of bemusement. His once beloved country has evolved into a
high-tech police state. It also happens
to be the preeminent world power. Now,
with the help of Stark Industries technology, S.H.I.E.L.D hopes to make that
power absolute. Alas, a cancerous growth
has been gestating deep within the bowels of the organization since its very
inception. That once hidden threat now
seeks complete dominion over its host, and by extension, the world at large. As this evolution takes place, key
S.H.I.E.L.D operatives become strategic targets. Now, more than ever before, Captain America
is the lone ambassador of an outmoded ideal.
With the help of Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and The Falcon
(Anthony Mackie), he hopes to restore freedom to world on the brink of losing
it forever.
