MY REVIEW
I guess we will be having our superheros back or perhaps new superheroes credit to the warning Dr Stern's gave Sam Wilson of impending threats from alternate realities hinting at future challenges that could impact the multiverse although Sam Wilson really tried in portraying the Captain America but there was some missing emotional depth seen in previous superheroes movie I have watched
But then I really commend their efforts to blend political drama with superhero actions in my own opinion this movie is worth giving a try trust me you're gonna love it
