Packed with blockbuster action and deft character beats, Falcon and the Winter Soldier proves itself worthy of Captain America's legacy with its globetrotting intrigue, mature social commentary, and the sparky rapport between stars Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan.

I want to believe this dire six-part action movie was just an unnecessary origin story, a very long prologue to an actual new kind of adventure about the first Black Captain America's difficult journey through a difficult world. Go to Full Review

Although the series got off to a slow start, the adventures of Captain America's best friends Falcon/Sam Wilson and Winter Soldier/Bucky Barnes have picked up considerably as the action/espionage series continues. Go to Full Review

Why must Sam, or anyone for that matter, don a nation's name and symbols in order to be a fitting hero? The show never provides a satisfactory answer. Go to Full Review

I actually really loved it. Yeah, there were some writing issues. And I will admit that yes the villains were under done. But if you came here for Sam and Bucky, you are going to get Sam and Bucky, and they are great; they are fantastic. Go to Full Review

It addresses some challenging issues, which is commendable and the best thing about the show. ... [It's] a great lesson in how pushing for progress in the face of adversity is the best way forward. Go to Full Review

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier is the closest that the MCU has come to touching the level of grit and humanity that I preferred from Netflix’s Marvel series. Go to Full Review

Brendan T. @JackTheSipper712 17h Not a very good show See more Duncan B. @RT17664056 May 24 The morals of the writers are terrible. I understand that it is supposed to be propaganda for my side of the isle, but the propaganda honestly patronized me and corrupted the plot so bad I think it made me less democrat. It ended up being so bad that the bad guys, (literally terrorists by definition, blowing up civilians to send a message, who had "refugee vibes") were propped up like some band missunderstood heros. Sam wilson continuously defends that 19 is too young to care if someone carbombs civilians on american soil or plots super powered terrorist attacks that target leaders of the nation. These "refugees" were portrayed as good, and the good guys, basically just John walker, get constantly attacked and bullied by title hungry douchbags (Sam and bucky) who want caps shield, even though Steve Roger's always spread the message that it wasn't about the gear, Steve was a beast who would have never betrayed an ally at their weakest so he can break their arm and take his shield back.

See more Khaztiel Delbod D @khaztielddenver_ Apr 16 No tenia expectativas con esta serie pero me termino gustando el desarrollo. Respecto a los personajes aquí pude ver un desarrollo por parte de Bucky y Sam, y sin pensarlo se volvió mi pareja favorita. Respecto a la trama siento que al final no lograron darle un cierre, se sintió que fueron escribiendo sobre la marcha y ese final me pareció muy premeditado. See more Ségolène C @segochato Mar 16 I have heard bad things about it. How they made the "black live matters" movement a promotional thing. And I was reluctant to watch it. I watched it and I really enjoyed the storytelling, each episode delivers a stellar performance and I love that we go in depth into those heroes traumas and their journey labelled as hero. Also, what it means to be a villain vs. a hero, exploring that it is a grey area. Nothing is one sided, which we often lack in the MCU. My only down was maybe some obvious lines that felt like political speeches rather than authentic messages butut I can forgive it given the quality of the show. Great writing, great acting, great visual, good balance between action/emotional drama/humor. Really good in the superhero genre. See more Declan D. @filmbuffkid Mar 14 So why couldn’t this be the 4th captain America movie. It continues the story of the aftermath of endgame and I really liked this show but the villain made so mad. See more Read all reviews
