The charmingly manipulative Love & Friendship shouldn't be as periodically enchanting as it is, but dammit if Kate Beckinsale doesn't hypnotize us from scene one.
When you truly analyze a movie like Captain America: Civil War, coherent storytelling seems like an utterly implausible pipe dream since you've got so many characters to juggle. A host of major players find themselves squeezed into one restricting story (even at two hours plus), which STILL has to be a Captain America movie - because his name is in the title and all. This isn’t an Avengers film by definition. Civil War is a continuation of Bucky Barnes’ The Winter Soldier storyline, and how Cap has to fight against legal restrictions that threaten his ability to act without government interference. The true personification of "land of the free, home of the brave," if you will.
Captain America: Civil War balances an over-loaded cast with ease, as this action-heavy new Marvel chapter will have viewers salivating over what comes next.
