Put it this way: Downey as Stark is infinitely more likeable and watchable than Affleck as Batman. Evans as Cap is infinitely more likeable and watchable than Cavill as Superman. Rudd is great as Ant Man. ScarJo, Renner, Cheadle, Bettany are all solid actors playing likeable, well developed characters.
Marvel is fantastic with casting. They absolutely nailed the casting of Black Panther and Spider Man. Black Panther will be a HUGE hit for Marvel.
COME ON MANE.... Your bias is coming out.
CA:CW provided a brooding Tony Stark. He was depressed the whole movie. Very un-Iron Man. So I don't provide any spoilers, literally Tony Starks lives out a Country and Western song in CA:CW. I don't think RDJ's performance is as enjoyable has it has been. He is at his best interacting with Tom Holland as Peter Parker, but most of this movie he seems to be at home in BvS. Ben Affleck has gotten nothing but kudos for his turn as Bruce Wayne/Batman so that comment seems really out of place.
Chris Evans did what he does, but there was nothing stand-out. He did his thing like Cavill did his. Comparing them is basically saying a beefcake out acted another. Neither one of them is winning an Oscar. Cap has shown more charisma in other movies. He kinda played the movie understated as well. His best two scenes were with Spidey and the one with the biggest laugh of the movie, and NK, you're grinning and nodding.
Rudd was a trailer's amount of screen time. Chandle was fine, but what got me is he was looking old. He's about 50 but he looked much older. That is irrelevant but I thought that and how much I'm glad they replaced Terrance Howard. Vision was good. But acting wasn't as much the thing as the sight gags.
I didn't fine anything special about Chad Boseman. I don't think Black Panther was truly defined.
The Olsen triplet couldn't hold her accent and that distracted me. But her and Bettany had good chemistry.
The movie was entertaining. I stand by my original assessment. They colored by numbers and they hit a story that was similar to BvS. If writers didn't call CA out but they did BvS for the motivation to fight, I think fingers need to be pointed.
