That legacy hangs heavy and Steve has to learn to let it go and be less perfect, less rigid, and selfish as time goes on.This subreddit is dedicated to discussing Marvel Studios, the films and television shows, and anything else related to the MCU. The movie sells that idea very well – not just to the heroes in future films – but to audiences as well. Steve is perfect in this film, but only during this time. That’s what makes Captain America: The First Avengers an interesting movie in retrospect. Even Steve Rogers has trouble living up to the man he was during World War II. That clarity of what is right and wrong that comes in the first Captain America film is blurred. What ends up happening is that while Steve Rogers stays the same, the world around him drastically changes. As future films explore Captain America as a man out of time, that perfect hero persona is challenged. Steve Rogers builds his legacy during World War II and lives up to it by being true to himself. ![]() The better self that they are looking for. He’s the goal that Iron Man, Thor, and the other characters are constantly trying to model themselves after. He’s the ideal version of a hero that other characters in the MCU are aspiring to reach. In this first adventure, Steve Rogers is almost too perfect – but for the MCU, Captain America is more than just a character. Deconstructing perfectionĬaptain America: The First Avenger is definitely one of the stronger MCU movies to revisit. More importantly, if he sees something he thinks is wrong, you bet he’s going to fight to the death to end it. He’s willing to put his life on the line, especially if he knows it will save others. Looking back at the big three – Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor – you see that Steve Rogers is the only one of the group who doesn’t start out flawed.įrom the beginning of the film, even when he’s more than powerless, Steve Rogers is brave, noble, and a man of high morals. In fact, if Iron Man was a B-level character before the first MCU film, then Captain America was an even harder sell – Evans elevates him into a fan favorite.Ĭaptain America: The First Avenger is just inspiring to watch in a way that the MCU's preceding films were not. Following Captain America's journey from the beginning, after all these years you’ll see Evans’ performance as the character is just as nuanced as Robert Downey Jr.’s take on Stark. In the way that Robert Downey Jr perfectly embodies the flawed, egotistical but brilliant Tony Stark, Chris Evans does the same for that character’s parallel, Steve Rogers – a man who is almost too perfect and selfless. I was skeptical but more than happy to be proven wrong. So, when Marvel announced that the actor would be playing the more serious everyman, Captain America, people were skeptical. He was instead known as the cocky and sarcastic Human Torch, the youngest superhero in Tim Story's campy Fantastic Four films. It’s almost impossible to see him any other way, but once upon a time Chris Evans wasn’t known as Captain America. ![]()
