Good reviews for a big superhero film? Who’d a thunk it?!
Ain’t It Cool News offered a taste of some reviews of the soon-to-be-released Captain America: Civil War and they are very positive:
The Best Marvel Studios Film Yet? The Trade and UK Reviews are in For Captain America: Civil War
I hope the film, made by the same people behind Captain America: Winter Soldier (a film that I’ve stated many times before is my second favorite all time superhero film), is indeed as good as their past one.
However…
It occurs to me I’ve seen something like this before. Early reviews of a film released to the UK and in which the critics loved what they saw. Now where oh where could I have read about this?
Oh yeah:
Spectre early reviews: Bond is back in solid form
The early preview reviews of Spectre which came from the UK critics were, at first, almost all very positive. It gave me hope the film would indeed be good.
At least IMHO. I found Spectre to be one of the absolute worst Bond films ever. So bad was the film, again IMHO, that it could well take the pole position from Moonraker and A View To A Kill, two of my least favorite Bond films of all time.
As for Captain America: Civil War, as the saying goes, we shall see!
