Before and After
The first of Marvel’s big budget films to come out this summer, Captain America is a square-jawed blast from the past that’s ripe for family viewing. Directed by Joe Johnston, the movie channels the deliriously cartoonish visuals, weapons and technology of 1940s serials. It also takes advantage of the character’s comparatively grounded superhuman abilities, deploying his ricocheting shield to great effect in a series of tightly choreographed battle scenes.
After undergoing military training at Camp Lehigh, the US government fashions Rogers into a living symbol of inspiration to the public and soldiers abroad. He debuts in a colorful uniform as Captain America, conducting secret missions stateside and abroad to smash spies, saboteurs and the occasional Super Villain who threaten the homeland he holds so dear. It doesn’t take long for Cap to attract the attention of his evil counterpart in Germany, the Red Skull. The two men form an enmity that endures to this day.
Unlike many superhero movies, this one doesn’t have much of a character arc, although the film does establish a good guy/bad guy dichotomy that sets it apart from most other recent films. By film’s end, Cap does experience a significant change in his perspective on the world, but that change is largely caused by events outside of his control. Even so, his decisions are necessary for the film’s narrative, which is why it’s so easy to support him on his journey to acclimate to a modern world.
