Just a fun spy movie packaged as a superhero movie. A lot of payoff for viewers of the first film which is why I really recommend watching them as a double feature. But this one is a little slicker, the writing's a little better, it moves a little faster, and it introduces less characters (or at least it feels that way since Black Widow and Nick Fury are familiar to anyone who's seen the Iron Man or Avenger movies) but uses them to much greater effect. Overall a better, more fun movie that sets up a lot of interesting potential for the third chapter (because let's be honest, they were never going to really delve into the Winter Soldier/Bucky/Captain/Steve relationship in this one, right? Anyone who's in invested, they've got them on the line now for another movie ticket).
I love that this was different in other countries depending on what culturally relevant stuff Steve would've need to catch up on there. Nice touch.
What what! I know where this is :)
Hey there, Abed! Happy to see you!
This final credits sequence showing the duality of SHIELD/HYDRA was really cool, visually and conceptually.
