Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

C
“I had moderately high hopes with Iger back in the fold but this is a confounding experience from pitch to execution. There will likely be worse superhero movies this year but this will likely stand out as one of the more disappointing efforts. ” –

“Zegler is the only thing keeping Snow White from becoming the on-screen debacle that it already is off-screen. A colossal screw up at virtually every level. ” –

“Maybe it isn't fair to hold the troubles of the entire industry against one soulless, needlessly expensive movie but if you're going to do it, this is the movie to do it with. ” –

“A fine film that is almost great in places and is therefore more frustrating for only being fine. Visually compelling but missing something in the story. ” –
