Critics Consensus

Anthony Mackie capably takes up Cap's mantle and shield, but Brave New World is too routine and overstuffed with uninteresting easter eggs to feel like a worthy standalone adventure for this new Avengers leader.

Audience Says

Captain America: Brave New World is a passable superhero enterprise that delivers the swell action one comes to expect in a Marvel outing.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

I found it absolutely impossible to get interested in it. The writing is at its very, very best functional.

Action scenes pop up frequently enough to keep the most fidgety teen engaged.

The not-so-secret weapon this CAPTAIN AMERICA has going for it is Harrison Ford. Don’t believe the nay-sayers out there: Brave New World is a 21st century Tall Tale, and if it takes two viewings to take it all in, so be it

It’s not quite Captain America: Brave Spew Hurled, but it’s close. C-minus-level MCU.

Combustible Celluloid

It tries a little too hard to get things moving in the first act, and it does feel fairly slight overall, a Minor Marvel. But for the majority of its running time, it soars, largely thanks to Anthony Mackie's potent presence.

Rated: 3/4

Bounding Into Comics

The worst part about Captain America: Brave New World is that it merely exists. Apart from its nostalgic roots, this “new” direction is more of the same just with actors and characters that aren’t nearly as interesting as they think they are.

Rated: 1.5/5

The Incredible Hulk 2 was very dull. Dialogue and a plot that seems to be all over the place, culminating in a mess of a film. To top it all off there is no Hulk…wait this is a Captain America movie?!?!

I don't understand all of the hate & dislike for Brave New World. It was a very enjoyable COMIC BOOK movie. Was it the best MCU movie.....No, but it definitely wasn't the worst. You need movies like this to move the MCU where it needs to go.

I overall liked the action of the movie, but at times the story seemed rushed and not fleshed out more. Kinda like they were hitting points that they wanted to hit in the movies but not developing those points. Not entirely sure if this pushes the MCU forward.
