Trailer for Captain America: The First Avenger
Meek U.S. Army soldier Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) takes part in an experimental military program that infuses him with super-human powers, and uses his newfound strength to battle the villainous Red Skull (Hugo Weaving) in this comic-book adventure from director Joe Johnston (The Wolfman, The Rocketeer). Tommy Lee Jones, Neal McDonough, and Stanley Tucci co-star in a film written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeeley (who previously collaborated on The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe).

Ed Gibbs, Sydney Morning Herald
No clever messages here, just bang-on romance and action, with another fresh twist on 20th-century history woven in for the kids to dive into after the credits have rolled.

David Denby, New Yorker
It doesn't try too hard for irony or style; the comic-book sensibility remains pure, square, and happily stupid.

David Sexton, This is London
Evans is unprecedentedly touching and engaging for a superhero - and the rest of the cast help this adventure seem something close to character-driven instead of just being a bundle of stunts.

Sukhdev Sandhu, Daily Telegraph
Solid, efficient, often anachronistic: Captain America is earthbound when it needs to soar.

Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]
The Captain isn't perfect, but he's the equal of Thor and loads better than the Green Lantern: he's the summer's pre-eminent superhero.
