More than five years after Steve Rogers passed his vibranium shield to Sam Wilson, Anthony Mackie’s Captain America has finally taken center stage. The hero returns alongside both new and familiar heroes, likely setting up the new generation of Avengers that will take the lead in Doomsday next year. Critic Tom Jorgenson’s review of Brave New World for IGN notes some frustration with “recycled MCU plotlines,” though he also describes how “Mackie brings each side of Sam’s personality to life well against seasoned scene partners like Harrison Ford, Carl Lumbly, and Tim Blake Nelson.” Are solid performances enough to save the day? We’ll leave that to you to decide.
