Captain America: Civil War round-up: 1st reactions, new promo & more

I hope your body is ready because I have a bunch of CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR stuff for you this morning. There's quite a bit, so let's get right to it! The first press screening of the upcoming film was held over the weekend in Los Angeles, and based on the twitter reactions, it seems almost everyone enjoyed the upcoming film, although some did have a few issues with the CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER sequel. Warning: Very mild spoilers ensue. First things first: we finally have the perfect Spider-Man and the greatest Peter Parker. — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 Next: Black Panther is incredible. Boseman plays him as both regal and full of rage. The most serious character in the film. — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 The movie is bigger in scale than WINTER SOLDIER but is so much more personal. The stakes are incredibly emotional. — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 You have only seen 1% of the airport fight. The action is incredible. There's a staircase fight that turns into a chase that's an all timer. — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 Finally: the last fight between Steve and Tony is unlike anything you've seen in a Marvel movie. They're both right. You just want them — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 to stop fighting. It packs a serious emotional punch. — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 I lied. One last last thing: this movie plays like a repudiation of BATMAN V SUPERMAN. A devastating reply. — devin faraci (@devincf) April 9, 2016 ‘Captain America: Civil War’ is so good, it’s a better Avengers movie than the last Avengers movie. — Mike Sampson (@mjsamps) April 9, 2016 Captain America: Civil War is a complex mystery posing a big, fun superhero film. Lots of themes and emotions. Very unexpected & VERY good. — Germain Lussier (@GermainLussier) April 9, 2016 I'll also admit, after 1 viewing, I have some small issues with the film. I'm guessing they'll shrink after a 2nd viewing to unpack them tho — Germain Lussier (@GermainLussier) April 9, 2016 I could go on all night with this but one last thing. The airport scene in Civil War is probably the best superhero action scene ever. — Germain Lussier (@GermainLussier) April 9, 2016 #CaptainAmericaCivilWar falls into a lot of the same traps as #BvS, but it's a lot more fun. What we get of #SpiderMan is played perfectly. — William Bibbiani (@WilliamBibbiani) April 9, 2016 The plot has problems in #CaptainAmericaCivilWar, no doubt about it. So do the plots of most superhero movies. But when it's fun, it's FUN. — William Bibbiani (@WilliamBibbiani) April 9, 2016 There are things in #CaptainAmericaCivilWar I thought I'd never get to see on the big screen when I was a kid. It's worth watching. — William Bibbiani (@WilliamBibbiani) April 9, 2016 So to wrap it up: it's not perfect, but it's a blast. Better than Age of Ultron. Not as cohesive as Winter Soldier. #CaptainAmericaCivilWar — William Bibbiani (@WilliamBibbiani) April 9, 2016 I honestly don't know how Civil War works. There's so much going on but it does. Spidey is AMAZING. Made me smile & laugh till my face hurt — Germain Lussier (@GermainLussier) April 9, 2016 I’m trying not to talk about ‘Civil War’ by comparing it to BvS, but it’s hard. It succeeds because it's exactly what that film is not: FUN. — Mike Sampson (@mjsamps) April 9, 2016 The big battle scene in #CivilWar is an absolute blast. Spider-Man, as you'd expect, steals the show. Ant-Man, as you might not, a close 2nd — Mike Sampson (@mjsamps) April 9, 2016 Civil War and BvS tackle some of the same themes and have similar beats, yet Cap works because we know and care about these characters. — Mike Sampson (@mjsamps) April 9, 2016 CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR is literally going to make all the money. — Steven Weintraub (@colliderfrosty) April 9, 2016 CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR is a Barry Bonds steroids hitting home-run by Marvel & Russo Brothers. And I LOVED Spider-Man in the film. LOVED. — Steven Weintraub (@colliderfrosty) April 9, 2016 Chadwick Boseman is fantastic as Black Panther. Can't wait to see his solo film. He absolutely nailed the role. — Steven Weintraub (@colliderfrosty) April 9, 2016 CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR has such incredible action set pieces because you care about the people fighting. It's not just punching bad guys — Steven Weintraub (@colliderfrosty) April 9, 2016 #CaptainAmericaCivilWar delivers the goods. Endless Avenger v Avenger action. Tense and still funny. Boseman kills it as Black Panther. — Kevin Polowy (@djkevlar) April 9, 2016 I don't want to drop any #CaptainAmericaCivilWar spoilers but have to get off my chest that I'm pretty sure Vision shops at Banana Republic. — Kevin Polowy (@djkevlar) April 9, 2016 Oh yeah, the big fight in Captain America: Civil War is cinematic joy. And Spider-Man is so great. He's in it more than I thought he'd be. — Mike Ryan (@mikeryan) April 9, 2016 I'm pretty sure Captain America: Civil War is my favorite Marvel movie. — Mike Ryan (@mikeryan) April 9, 2016 Really didn't think I'd care *that* much seeing Spider-Man hanging out with all the other characters. But there he was and it made me happy! — Mike Ryan (@mikeryan) April 9, 2016 Just saw @CaptainAmerica Civil War!!! Wow! Spider-Man Rocks! Best Action Sequences in any superhero film EVER! pic.twitter.com/5uTdpYvFw6 — Jon Schnepp (@JonSchnepp) April 9, 2016 I have to admit it. Captain America: Civil War a letdown after the high of Winter Soldier. It's a better, smarter version of BvS. — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 Zemo is another wasted Marvel villain whose scheme is, while not as crazy as Lex's, isn't much more coherent or less convoluted — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 Spider-Man is both the best & most expendable part of Civil War. I want to see more of him — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 Big airport brawl is great fun & Civil War sort of limps to the finish line after that. Panther is very cool. Want to see more of him too — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 But I think between this & BvS I'm done with being reminded of superhero battle collateral damage. We've dealt with it. — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 Unsure if ppl will find Cap 3 as fun as trailers sell it. Tony was far more morose than I expected. Parts of movie work better than whole — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 Civil War is not a bad film at all. But it's not the great movie I'd hoped it would be. It's a good movie with many OK & a few great moments — Jim Vejvoda (@JimVejvoda) April 9, 2016 Winter Soldier had a better of a story, Civil War better action and set pieces... I'll give a SLIGHT nod to WS over CW, but CW is incredible — John Campea (@johncampea) April 9, 2016 I cried tears of joy, okay? Tears of joy. #CaptainAmericaCivilWar — Alex Welch (@AlexRWelch) April 9, 2016 Tom Holland is the greatest Peter Parker and Spider-Man ever put to screen. It made me bawl. #CaptainAmericaCivilWar — Alex Welch (@AlexRWelch) April 9, 2016 It's the darkest Marvel movie yet, but it's emotionally dark. The scope is bigger, and the stakes are more personal than any Marvel film yet — Alex Welch (@AlexRWelch) April 9, 2016 The airport sequence honest to God, might be the best thing I've ever seen in a superhero movie. Ever. You've only seen 1 tiny slice of it. — Alex Welch (@AlexRWelch) April 9, 2016 Imagine all of the best moments from The Avengers movies, on steroids and amplified. — Alex Welch (@AlexRWelch) April 9, 2016 What BVS did to Superman, #CivilWar does the opposite to Spider-Man. Welcome home. — Alex Welch (@AlexRWelch) April 9, 2016 @CaptainAmerica Civil War is straight up amazing. @Marvel has wowed me endlessly, but this is next-level. #CivilWar #TeamCap #Phase3 — Erik Van Sant (@ErikVanSantCBS5) April 9, 2016 Sorry Batman V Superman, but Civil War nailed hero vs hero tension...and had some fun with it. — = K H A I L = (@KhailAnonymous) April 9, 2016 At 8pm, WINTER SOLDIER was my favorite MCU film. Roughly 2.5 hours later, CIVIL WAR is now #1. Action masterpiece. SPIDER-MAN!!!#NerdTears — Kevin McCarthy (@KevinMcCarthyTV) April 9, 2016 There is an airport action sequence in CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR that I would pay full price to see on loop for 3 hours. Epic Nerd Tears! — Kevin McCarthy (@KevinMcCarthyTV) April 9, 2016 It's not perfect... But it's far better than #Ultron & #BvS Every character gets a proper moment AND.We meet a great #SpiderMan #CivilWar — Andy Signore (@andysignore) April 9, 2016 A new low-res image from the Marvel flick has also landed online, featuring Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark, Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff and Paul Bettany's Vision in their civilian duds. And last, but not least, below you'll find a new international promo, which gives us another look at the heroes charging into battle against each other, with Tom Holland's Spider-Man on Team Iron Man's side. CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR is due out on May 6, 2016.
