Captain America (1979 TV Movie)
3/10
Captain America: Marvel flavoured cheese
20 December 2017
Long before Chris Evans took up the shield we had this 1970's "delight", the one often used as a comparison to how far ol' cap has come.

Little known fact even this wasn't Captain America's first outing, he goes all the way back to 1944 in a competently made black and white feature.

Here we see Steve Rogers origin story and how he becomes Americas most well known super solider. It looks and plays out like an episode of the A-Team and Captain America himself looks seven shades of ridiculous.

With a story ripped straight from the pages of a Bond novel, over the top action sequences and a standard 1970's score this is pretty bad stuff.

The Good:

Has that 70's charm

The Bad:

Incredibly cheesy

Plenty of plot holes

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Captain America has come a long way from a crash helmet and transparent riot shield

I want to see this guy vs Thanos. Why? Because my sadistic side thinks it'd be hilarious
