    You wouldn’t know it but next Friday Marvel releases a movie starring a black Captain America called Brave New World. I’m sure America is just going to have a totally normal one about it and it will barely justify one column inch…

    I’m watching Captain America: Brave New World and this movie has some shockingly bad exposition, like some of the worst I’ve heard from a big budget live action film in some time

    Captain America Brave New World is a perfectly serviceable action movie that somehow has exactly nothing to say about the fact that Anthony Mackie as Captain America is fighting the President of the United States in the middle of Washington DC. Forget subtext, there's barely even any text about it.

    There is nothing brave or new in CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD. It's a tap dancing vision of a Black Captain America. My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social.

    Of course, the film's weird fictional geopolitics aren't the real problem with "Captain America: Brave New World." The real problem is that Anthony Mackie isn't a movie star.

    Shout out to Jane Campion for making IN THE CUT shortly after 9/11, the first big studio production to shoot in Manhattan after the attacks, and a film also SET after 9/11, a film that depicts the NYPD as a reinforcement unit of the patriarchy in a post-traumatic New York City. Brave of Campion!
