‘Captain America: Brave New World’ Review: Anthony Mackie And Harrison Ford Try To Breathe New Life Into Marvel Reboot


A review of 'Captain America: Brave New World' with Anthony Mackie taking over the shield and playing opposite Harrison Ford taking on President Ross

With world leaders and the Prime Minister of Japan gathered for the President’s summit to sell this idea of a worldwide treaty, gunfire and all hell breaks out as one of the guests invited by Sam suddenly tries to assasinate Ross. He is leader of a group of Mercenaries known as Serpent and leads Sam and Joaquin to the real villain here, the disfigured Samuel Sterns ( Tim Blake Nelson) whose brains are on the outside, but still evil-y functional as the one- time power hopeful is out for revenge including the use of mind control in manipulating people to do what he orders. Oddly Captain America: Brave New World has some eerie things in common with what we are witnessing in the White House right now in real life with an actual President attempting to take over Greenland, Canada, the Panama Canal, develop Gaza into a seaside resort town, and even broker land in Ukraine as pay back.
