Steve Rogers volunteers for a top secret research project that turns him into Captain America. Stars Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Stanley Tucci, Tommy Lee Jones.

Meek U.S. Army soldier Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) takes part in an experimental military program that infuses him with super-human powers, and uses his newfound strength to battle the villainous Red Skull (Hugo Weaving) in this comic-book adventure from director Joe Johnston (THE WOLFMAN, THE ROCKETEER). Tommy Lee Jones, Neal McDonough, and Stanley Tucci co-star in a film written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeeley (who previously collaborated on THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE).

Captain America: The First Avenger Reviews:

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."-- Matthew Leyland, Total Film

"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..."-- Kim Newman, Sight and Sound

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."-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

"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."-- Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

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

"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."-- Claudia Puig, USA Today

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
