    Editorial reviews

    3 stars out of 4 -- "[H]ere is a real movie....It has the texture and takes the care to be a full-blown film."
    Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (07/27/2011)

    "Evans makes a hell of an MVP."
    Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (08/04/2011)

    3 stars out of 4 -- "[I]t's a terrific movie....[T]he World War II-era drama returns the form to its classic roots..."
    Washington Post (07/21/2011)

    "As the titular comic book character, Chris Evans has an appealing, earnest quality....Evans provides just the right human anchor to the flash and dazzle of director Joe Johnston's production."
    USA Today - Claudia Puig (07/22/2011)

    4 stars out of 5 -- "Joe Johnston shrink-wraps Americana in the super-powered physique of star Chris Evans and serviceably approximates a brisk, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK-esque sense of adventure..."
    Box Office (07/20/2011)

    "Evans has gone the Marvel route before....[T]his part brings out an appealing earnestness and humility in the actor that is certainly not business as usual in the comic book superhero genre."
    Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (07/22/2011)

    3 stars out of 5 -- "[Johnston] manages to pull out the stops for the finale: an explosive confrontation above the clouds that then quiets down for a touching farewell."
    Total Film - Matthew Leyland (09/01/2011)

    "[T]he film reaches back to the seed of all superhero fantasy: the myth of the 98-pound weakling transfigured....Evans is an appealing actor..." -- Grade: B
    Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (08/05/2011)

    "Director Joe Johnston went the retro route in the underrated THE ROCKETEER, and again catches the 1940s tone well: the film finds an acceptable rationale for the Captain American persona..."
    Sight and Sound - Kim Newman (10/01/2011)

    An okay movie with a decent plot. Not nearly as entertaining as other action movies. Really lacked a definitive storyline in my opinion compared to other comic heroes like Thor and Green Lantern. But still overall an average movie.
