Rankings:

Superhero Moment
5/5

This entire movie is one big superhero moment. Cap and Iron Man against Loki, Cap vs. Iron Man vs. Thor, Hulk smash, etc., but I think my favorite is probably Banner’s last transformation.

“That’s my secret, Captain: I’m always angry.”

Casting
3/5

No one new in this one aside from Agent Hill, who I adore.

Costume
3/5

Most of them are the same from their individual appearances, but in retrospect, Cap’s was… not great.

Theme Song
5/5

Notes

The Dark Knight was probably the best comic book movie I had seen to this point, but damn, this one was EASILY the most fun. Seeing a teamup movie like this was unprecedented at the time, and little did we know the universe it was setting the stage for.
