Captain America: Civil War

Joe and Anthony Russo's Captain America: Civil War continues on with Steve Rodgers (Chris Evans) aka Captain America and the Avengers squad a year after the devastating events of Avengers: Age of Ultron. The Avengers facing a distressed public that has become increasingly distrustful of not only the team and the collateral destruction, but by the super powered people and superheroes. All the devastation introduces to us the Secretary of State formerly U.S. General Thaddeus Ross (William Hurt) aka Thunderbolt, who introduces a "solution" that the United Nations 'UN' deem appropriate for this issue: Sokovia Accords, an agreement that forces Earth's Mightiest Heroes to work under a panel for the UN that determines when and where the team would "suit up".  This idea pins the Avengers against each other, Tony Start (Robert Downey Jr) aka Iron Man, Vision (Paul Bettany), James Rhodes (Don Cheadle) aka War Machine and Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) aka Black Widow who are all for signing the agreement, but Captain America has a difference of opinion but who can blame him after the S.H.I.E.L.D. aka Hydra fiasco "people with agenda's, agenda's change". However he is not alone teaming up with Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) aka Falcon and Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) aka Scarlet Witch who are not hesitant about their resentfulness of the Accords.

The Sokovia Accords are the loaded gun, and it ends up being Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) aka The Winter Soldier who pulls the trigger. A tragic turn of events occurs, pressuring The Avengers to apprehend Steve Rodger's one-time brainwashed friend Bucky Barnes who is seemingly responsible.

Captain America: Civil War from start to end is packed with action and takes the viewer on a emotional roller coaster from humor to teary eyes, which is rewarded as the best movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the best Superhero Movie in a long time. The movie is equivalently electrifying, entertaining, fascinating, emotional, and brilliant, everything you want from a movie of this caliber. The Russo brothers have done an marvelous job with all the characters each having their own shining moment which would have been difficult for anyone else as Civil War features what is of no doubt the largest ensemble seen yet from a Marvel Studios  Movie.
