  • Civil War was fantastic.

I thought it was fine. Still way better than what you would assume a comic book movie about Captain America would be.

I wasn't crazy about the changes they made to the Civil War story but making it fit into one movie I guess this is what had to happen.

Also probably the best they've done with Spider-man even if they felt the need to inexplicably sexualize Aunt May. I would have been really disappointed since at this point Spider-man was in his 20s in the comic, but they really did do a decent job with it so it's hard to hold that nerdy as fuck grudge.

Aunt May was Marisa Tomei who was in My Cousin Vinny, she was hot like a firecracker in that movie and she's got the accent down. I was pleasantly surprised by tbe casting choice.

Yeah I know who she is it doesn't make it any less weird that Aunt May is a hottie.

I'm not going to make what would probably be a failing future argument by saying it's a bad choice but I think we can all agree that it's a weird one.

In all honesty I was bored as shit for most of the movie. I didn't really like the take on Zemo and it felt so...well, nerfed, compared to how much bigger and grander Civil War was in the comics.

But it wasn't *bad* per se. I just felt like it felt...smaller than it should have been.

That being said, I second the way Spider-Man was handled, that really was the best they've done with the character cinematically.

The airport fight was worth the price of admission too.
