I made a joke that Captain America: Civil War was a nothing but a story featuring hero-on-hero violence. You know what happens when you assume stuff. This movie was entertaining, thought provoking and somewhat heartbreaking. Without giving away anything I will say that we are all manipulated by political forces and sometimes people on the same team have to choose the best way to go about doing something and therefore causes much conflict, even war. The cast performances are top shelf and I think Chris Evans and Robert Downey, Jr. are amazing. If you haven’t seen this movie, go. You might want to watch the Captain America, Iron Man, Ant Man and Avengers movies before seeing this one to provide much needed context. This is probably the best super hero movie made in quite some time, a new standard has been set.
When asked if I was going I said “I hate when friends fight. Its so awkward.” But you inspire me to reconsider.

Think about the battles of the Civil War when brothers fought against each other.

I saw it yesterday and I liked it. It was a little bit long though. I’m definitely on Iron Man’s side. I liked how they included Spider Man. I thought he was pretty funny.

It was long but not unbearably so. They could have gone another half hour but attention spans would have been put to the test.
