I didn't expect too much from this movie after watching the trailer. Judging from the cast and the trailer I thought that it would be at the very least a little entertaining or just an okay movie. It is actually very entertaining and the performances from the entire cast are solid. I laughed a lot and more than I expected. It also has quite a few twists and turns which I wasn't expecting and which should keep you interested. The chemistry between Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy is very good too and they both provide a couple of very memorable scenes. If you are looking for something to pass the time this movie would be a very good choice.

It's not a bad movie but I think it could have been so much better. On the whole it is entertaining. Although the story is a little thin the performances from the whole cast are solid. Having said that for a movie with Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Sam Rockwell, etc., you'd expect something that is at the very least very good. Near the end I did start to feel for the characters but I just never felt really connected to them throughout the movie. It is already two hours long but maybe it would have been better if it had been a little longer so that there would have been a little more development in the characters. At the end of the movie I felt entertained but I wanted more and felt that the movie could have given more than it did. Not a bad movie but it could have been so much better.

Considering all the recent superhero movies have varied from bad to very good but not great I wasn't sure about this one. The cast on paper was very good but I wasn't sure if a movie set in World War 2 would be relevant in the present day. Well, Capatain Amercia: The First Avenger works and is easily one of the best movies of the year. The cast is outstanding and the story should keep you riveted. The movie has just about everything for everyone action, romance, drama, etc., which is something I think the other recent superhero movies may have lacked. Hopefully, The Avengers and the following sequels, if there are any, are just as good or better.
