Omg hahaha im suppose to be getting to bed but Captain Spoony is worth being tired the next day for!

Wait… that thing has a sequel? Man, sometimes I’m quite grateful that there isn’t something like a german superhero, so we don’t have “this kind of problem” here. I mean “Captain Germany” would be … aw wait… *googles* ..aw fuuuuu…

Brilliant job, sir. I don't know how you sat through that movie and didn't reach for the fast-forward button. “Captain Emo” would've been a more suitable title for Brown's role in the film. The fact that you've sat through a sequel– Why, God, Why?– and will be posting that soon is icing on the cake.

Reb Brown (as “Captain America”) vs Lance LeGault (as “Harley”; the actor is better known for performing Colonel Decker in the A-Team)… What a weird, insane and weird concept! Not to mention the mediocre acting (okay, it's a mediocre script as far as I can grasp it, desperately trying to get a few more minutes of air time). But then again, it's somewhat better than the 1991 film the Nostalgia Critic dealt with since this one has a base more solid, right?

Bondpirate

“Mediocre Script” is giving too much credit, anything with this slow a pacing would give the Rifftrax guys some trouble.

  I compared the script to an A-Team episode, that’s why it’s mediocre in my book…

    Touche, but now the real question is, “Could the movie have been saved if Mr.T was the antagonist?”
    “Aint no pansy Captain America boy gonna stop me from gettin my gold fool! Bring me my neutron bomb. With this much, I can fashion the worlds greatest gold chain to adorn my glorious neck. AND THEN I TAKE OVER THE WORLD! [Cut to "OF COURSE!"] I pity the fool that tries to stop me.”….
    
    Yes, yes it probably could have.
    
    Edit: It’s sad that in a half hearted joke I gave more plot and character motivation than a group of professional writers.
    Also, Jack Kirby worked on this, WTF, at least he should have made Captain America less emo.
    - Anonymous
      
      Now that we have shown some passion (we like each others comments)to each other: Yes, Mr. T would have saved this dull, dry (like some army rations) and unbelieveably droning (you can tell I’m a foreigner, don’t you?) waste of film/VHS tape. But so would have a dance number from an indian dance movie.
      
      And Jack Kirby was probably only in for the money…
      “Hey, Jack, we want to turn Catain America into a steaming pile of whiny horsesh*t. Are you okay with that?” – “Yeah, if you give me [insert huge pile of US-Dollars] I’d be okay if you turn him into a ballet dancer. So, go on.” – “Thanks Jack, the check’s in the mail.”
      (Counting the seconds until someone comes and tries to prove him wrong…)
    - Bondpirate
      
      To give him the benefit of the doubt, this was the end of the Carter recession and nobody really had any money. The Comic Code Authority probably didn’t help either. Or this was one giant inside joke to try to produce something worse than the 1976 King Kong remake. Or they just bought a truckload of cocaine and partied but forgot they had to make a movie at the end of the day so they put something together quick-like. Regardless, Spoony suffered for their sins and our amusement; someone should buy that man a beer!

Wow this is bad. I love his reactions to driving off a cliff. He's lightly rubbing his neck and then is like hmph, guess I'm just accident prone, peace. Then not even a hint of sadness, horror, etc when he sees his long time friend bite it. I could almost forgive having one fight scene if he were fighting as Captain America but he is just fighting basically as a guy on Super Roids.

I have to say, I'm horrified, but the other Captain America movie was a lot better

http://twitter.com/DANfan69 Kaohe Alama-Francis

I'm surprised that you didn't do a very obvious joke involving F.L.A.G. and the B.A.M.F. acronym there Spoony.

And if anybody wants to know, the reason behind this Captain America having nothing to do with the comic book Cap is that for some screwed up reason Marvel thought that if the Hulk was successful even though it didn't follow the concept of the comics that Cap could do the same success. For god sakes man, the Hulk's name was changed to David because the producers thought that the name Bruce was too associated with gay men at the time!

Basically, the Captain America movies were basically two failed pilot episodes for a possible television series (The Doctor Strange one was also a TV movie which was going to be basically a pilot as well)

I actually guessed that it´s 70 minutes until he appears in the costume. Pretty close.

As to stupid villain plans: That´s what happens when you have a bad writer. Sometimes it would be better if you had two guys play a table top RPG, one as the villain, another one as the hero. They get their individual resources (like financial power vs. super strength) and then they just play and write down what they´re doing in the game. At least that would have the hero/villain make sensible decisions.

And know I have a question: How long will it take for someone to photoshop Doug´s head onto a dirty ballerina picture?
I´m already very afraid of that. oO”

Dude, can’t speak for the others or Spoony, but you are not trolling. That was a very polite request. If they are ads, he might not have any way to remove them. Some web sites sorta do that, its lil cheaper to have a page with ads but you can’t control what ads are posted.

And all this time I thought FLAG stood for Foundation for Law and Goverment…. :D

Great review as always, Spoony.

Bekefel

How they could make such a boring superhero movie I shall never know. Even the worst superhero movies out there can still be entertaining. A few fight scenes, a few explosions and some cheesy dialogue are just some of the possible components. How a superhero movie exists without any of these baffles me!

@Yamisilaas
I would recommend getting some Ad-Blocking software. I haven't got a problem with advertisements usually but you're right, those particular ads are pretty distracting. I'd recommend AdBlock (Firefox) or AdSweep (Chrome) or something like that.

ThomasFishwick

You survived the first movie and now you're taking on the sequel. Forget Captain America (not that hard), you're the real hero here! That or you've seen so many bad movies and games that it has left you so psyologicaly damaged you confuse abstract agony with joy.

Looking forward to the sequel, and what's with the black ring? I thought you hated jewelry? (yes I do know why, but as you were throwing it in our faces I thought I might as well point it out)

I seriously found it hard to believe you could make a boring Reb Brown movie but sure enough, here it is…
I'll try to keep my hopes low for the sequel

Maybe some time down the road you could take a crack at the Spirit movies (Both the 1987 TV movie and the *ugh* Frank Miller version)

How can an oil company manage to build a nuclear bomb in the first place ?
I'm not an expert but they would need uranium, a bunch of competent scientists and some facilities (away from civilisation for tests). And how come the FBI or another intelligence agency wouldn't know about that plan ?
This is ridiculous.

I remember seeing this movie a long long time ago, and lord was it bad. Yes, this version makes the one version that NC reviewed look like a cake walk.

I feel bad for Reb Brown. How does he feel about his shitty career these days?

sablegryphon

While it is correct to say that most revolvers are impossible to silence, it is possible to silence a limited number of them. The biggest technical problem in silencing a revolver is that the gas escapes out of the cylinder. However, in the last years of the 1800s, a revolver was produced by Tzarist Russia called the M1895 Nagant revolver. This was a very unusual weapon. It has a seven shot cylinder, which is random enough that I wonder if they had just decided on the cylinder size before the calibre and then figured out how many holes they could drill. This was also a gas sealed revolver. This was possible because of two features. First, when the trigger is pulled, a mechanism presses the cylinder forward to seat against the barrel. Second, the weapon used a very unique round, the 7.62×38 Nagant. In this round, the bullet is actually seated behind the front of the casing, which is crimped down to hold the bullet in. This cartridge is a bit longer than the cylinder. So, when one pulls the trigger, the cylinder is pressed forward which slides the tip of the casing into the barrel itself. Then, when it fires, the brass expands into the barrel, forming a seal, so no gas escapes out of the cylinder. This allowed the revolver to be silenced.

I can't get a good enough look at the revolver in Captain America to say, but I'd bet good money that it couldn't be silenced. It was clearly not a Nagant revolver and it does not appear to use any sort of gas seal.

Kevin_Holsinger

Yeah, it was like the writers put that FLAG line in there SPECIFICALLY so that Spoony could do the Big Ass Motherf*ckers joke 30+ years later…and then Spoony doesn't make the joke.

Overall, of course, good review. I'm curious to see what's the next character Spoony's going to shame himself into dressing up as.

My mind is just totally blown by this actionless action movie. Im afraid of this sequel… part of me wants to believe it cant get worse, but I cant think of a sequel that was better than the original.

Poipoi

Spoony you are one brave bastard to take on this movie and the sequel.

Capt America's whiny level reminds me of what they did to the Bionic Woman in the remake series. I think they were trying to keep a level of realism but we don't want that. We want to see a hero kick ass.

criticalmarine

What a cruel joke, I can't believe they get off with this bull-honky. I mean a “Marine Captain America” shouldn't be so boring. It should be even more interesting to watch then the wimpy Army Captain America, but they did it. Good thing you got this one Spoony, I don't think I could have handled a review of this without exploding with anger at what appears to be an extremely dull movie, hope #2 treats you better.

Actually, in the comics, Cap does indeed have a “battle van” similar to the one in this. I don’t know if it was introduced to tie into this flik or not, though. He tends to just stick to his motorcycle, though, unless on stake out.

Wow… Spoony, I know you like your Reb Brown flicks but, please tell me this was a bet gone horribly wrong. This seems to be a step down the dark side for you. Please step away from the crappy american made movies and find some better use of your time. This was worse than the multiple times I've re-watched the ending credits to FF8 due to your review. Otherwise, I hope you keep up the awesome work.

Diggerjohn111

Spoony's Cap't America costume is better than Reb's. But that is the third worst evil plot Spoony ever reviewed, let's not forget the Bronzemen and the Super Weed Killer from “Clones of Bruce Lee”, at least a neutron bomb will make a big noise. Awesome review as always Spoony! Can't wait for part two.

Its a bad sign for your movie if the low-budget Internet review has BETTER effects than your entire production company can muster. By the way Spoony, you were looking rather fetching in that Captain America suit (no homo).

alexmitchell

I've been looking forward to this review ever since the Nostalgia Critic reviewed the other Captain America movie. I was lucky(?) enough to see both, and I was a little disappointed with his emphatic panning of a movie that was light-years better than this and much closer to the real Captain America. At least he fought Nazis, you know?

I'll also admit I have a soft spot for this weird AU Steve Rogers. I like to imagine him still out there, traveling the California coastline, just hanging out being mellow with his cat. Painting watercolors. I'd read an updated comic about him, I suppose. They'd still have to try a little harder, though.

It's like they took the “hero” from “Lazerblast” and tried to mix him with Cap'n America…. EPIC FAIL. The only thing the 1991 Captain America movie got right was the set-up: Steve Rogers fights Nazis in the 1940s, including the Italian Fascist douchebag Red Skull. Everything else in that flick was a load. With the 1979 movie abso-FRICKIN'-lutly NOTHING has ANYTHING to do with Captain America story as we know it, and I never read an issue of any comic book Captain America was in!

DrForrester

I loved all the Riding with Death references, as that's one of my favorite MST3K episodes of all time. I can't believe how similar some of those scenes were, most notably the whole riding with your weapon in the back of a semi scene. I'm guessing panel vans were a popular convention of the late 70s and early 80s as the movie Laserblast and both Master Ninjas starred a dopey hero with a big van

mrwednesdaynight

Say what you will about Bruno Mattei, he would not have screwed up Captain America starring Reb Brown this bad. I can say in all confidence that the Master of Italian Rip Off movies would have made a better Captain America movie than Americans did. I can picture it in my head already and I'd pay money to see that.
Looking at some of the info online, it looks like the Captain America adaptation that will be coming soon won't be very good. Why does Hollywood hate Captain America? I have theories but seriously, this character has not been treated well by Hollywood.

http://www.mangapunksai.com Sai

Hahahahaaaaa… I can't wait for the next part. Dear god this movie is so meandering and pointless, what was the script writer thinking? Did they even have one? It's a testament to your talent, Spoony, that you can make an entertaining review out of a movie so dirt boring.

http://twitter.com/JMichaelShearer Jesse Shearer

From the looks of things, the worst part of this movie is that there are sequels to it, and that's saying a lot. I had not thought it possible to make a superhero movie that boring, but I guess it is. Just goes to show why this was forgotten about over the years. Can't wait for the next part.

shmooglavoue

I can't believe it. This Captain America movie is worse than the one that NC reviewed! It vexes me; how could anyone miss the concept of a superhero who fights nazi's so badly?

Here's to seeing you review the sequel Spoony!

DeathsHead419

I don't think it's that hollywood hate the charater, so much as he isn't one very easily adapted to film. Captain America is tied to a specific timeframe and a very complicated set of events to explain his backstory. In contrast, Batman has had some of the best film adaptations. Why? Becasue he isn't tied to any timeframe and has a very simple yet powerful backstory.

I'm not sure what the formula is, but I'm fairly sure Captain America simply does not lend himself to the cinema. It also doesn't help that in some cases these movies have been made on shoestring budgets by people who don't give a shit about the source meterial.

FelCallerClayton

Why…god….why….

Doomzorus

I got to disagree with one thing in that review. A silenced revolver do work and do exist. Even thought it wouldn't be my weapon of choice for silent takedown. A knife or 9mm with silencer would have been better.

frontrowgreg

A cliffhanger??? You bastard!

Bosh_Depanzer

Oh yeah! “Captain America” sure is a potent put-down, I must say. Provided your referring to this specific movie.

Seriously, in my opinion, this is actually WORSE than the unreleased Fantastic Four movie. At least in FF you saw the heroes in their element within 20 minutes and they DID SH*T!

BlueMage

It may have been bad, but your hate for it entertains me. In that sense, I'm glad it was made.

Also, I noticed there were some extra white pixels around the edges of your Captain America text. I thought you had Photoshop? It's easily fixable, y'know.

Oh Spoony, what a fantastic choice. This movie deserves everything you can give it and more for what it did to poor Cap. Well done, and I can't wait for the rest!

Johndar

I disagree. I think Hollywood could easily make a good film adaption of Captain America. His back story isn't any more complicated then Ironman's and his film was, in my opinion, pretty awesome. Also, Cap isn't really tied to a timeframe. Sure, his story begins in WWII, but when he defrosts is pretty interchangeable. I don't think Captain America the character has anything to do with these movies sucking, its like you said, low budget films that just don't care.

I'm glad Blip TV had the second part of the review. Double Feature!

Still, if those movies were supposed to be TV show pilots, it would make sense they'd use the same opening. I'm assuming.

MFlorian

Yeah. The Black Lantern ring was only on for a short time. Since Linkara's doing a “To Be Continued” of his Ultimates Review with Mechara at the end, I bet Mechara and Black Lantern Spoony will team-up next week.

My question is where does Spoony keep all these props and costumes? xD

well…. normally, silenced revolver doesn't make sense. However, as far as I know Russia and America made silenced revolver (links: http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg194-e.htm http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg221-e.htm http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg213-e.htm) which wouldn't be as efficient or easier to get as just putting silencer and subsonic rounds to a semi-autometic , so I can get your point.

saradiart

are you wearing a black power ring you gigantic nerd

hrf5gd

Absolutely awesome. I have to admit I laughed the hardest seeing spoony dressed up in his own costume.

P.S. Spoony, I love you, you are adorable, but maybe a haircut wouldn't be a terrible idea… Sorry just being a girl.

Doomzorus

Had the same comment on this.

Yay! A movie so awful it finally killed the critic. Is he gone for good?

ScreamingMantis

lol I adore this man's work so I wasnt gonna say anything about *maybe* getting a slight haircut but I was thinking it hahaha. He's still overly adorable though. Anyway, I loved the costume hahaha, and I think Spoony did a great job doing these two films, it was unexpected and thats always alot of fun. I love how he's got a clip of the “yellow pepper incident” in his theme song now. Poor guy <3

Lermont

Um, that a nice head of hair for being out of the marines for just two weeks, considering how old the movie is, are the marines not what they used to be or sure have changed since then?

StealthKnight

Don't forget the nagant revolver that can attache a suppressor to it's barrel. http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg102-e.htm. Most of the silent pistols/revolvers seem to be made in Russia. Maybe the villain was secretly a communist =).

Actually, Misha, the Nagant revolver is the only revolver you can use a silencer on because it expells gases at the end of the barrel instead of expelling gas between the cylinder and the barrel.

Guest

oMrHarris

at 13:30 he says “Jam it down there throats and protect your self”……

BJ joke?

jetman123

This is because the revolver was specially modified so that it presses the cartridge forward before firing, forming a seal between the cylinder and barrel.

jetman123

I believe it was the first operational silenced weapon, used by Russian special ops teams and loved muchly.

Also, as Spoony says (from memory) “Note to self: My fans are very knowledgeable about firearms…”

13secondspastmidnight

Why, if the villain is an OIL TYCOON, is he trying to rob a gold repository? He's RICH for fuck's sake!
This movie's logic makes as much sense as the last season of Lost… (but great review)

this movie seems so boring theres not even that much to make fun of, thats really sad.

Um…sorry to nerd out but Captain America actually did have a van with a hidden motorcycle in it. That was probably the only thing they took from the comics.

Anonymous

Actualy, the TV-movie took more from the comics. It was at that time that Captain America was wandering America as Nomad, a hero without a purpose. He eventually became Cap again. This movie just borrowed the turning from Nomad to Cap idea without having him become Cap and then Nomad first.

Who in the hell thought that this movie was going to make any money at all? Shouldn't that bring up some sort of red flag?

http://www.facebook.com/people/Jack-Smith/1250595912 Jack Smith

its science time !!

actually, neutron bombs (or correctly: enhanced radiation weapon (ERW)) do not cause a fallout (at least not for more than 24h until the radiation lvls have dropped so far that there is no safety hazard anymore, and once the initial blast is over, standard rad suits allow entering the area within minutes after the explosion)

neutron bombs don't work by blowing sh!t up, they work by basically pushing the hydrogen out of everything organic and replacing it with *guess what* NEUTRONS.

obviously this is a quite nasty business, theres a reason the effect of the hydrogen/neutron replacement on humans and animals is called “juicing” as this literally results in loss of structural integrity of anything living and you end up as goo with bones on the floor.

advantage of neutron bombs: 24 hours after the explosion its save for civilians, buildings/roads/electronics are not damaged (they will however be covered in human goo so you best get that cleaning crew ready before it starts to smell)

disadvantage: the use of neutron bombs is considered a war crime

and I guess it goes without saying that the first neutron bomb was build 1958 (and 1963 successfully tested in Nevada) and to put into perspective just how nasty neutron bombs are: the last live US neutron bomb was dismantled in 2003 (by bush senior) without any international agreements (and yes the Soviets and Chinese have/had them as well unknown if they still exist, it is assumed they do not, as neutron bombs are expensive and stop working after a couple decades due to half-life on the upside, the collected and refined tritium from these bombs can still be used to turn ordinary nukes into fusion bombs)

marco-91

Bullshit. Neutron bomb are low-yield nuclear weapons that release majority of their energy as radiation. Radiation released by neutron bomb does not turn humans or animals to “juice”.

I always found this review hilarious (and the second one too). Sure the movie looks boring as hell, but Spoony was infact able to make this entertaining despite there being about ten actual minutes of real entertainment in the movie.

It’s funny how Steve/Captain America got caught in a trap twice and then used as a guinea pig for FLAG and just whines a little.

Now, to be fair, this is clearly meant to be a pilot for a series. So it’s purpose is more to set up the Captain America concept and the basic formula that the series is likely to follow. Also, they seem to have been going for something similar to the Incredible Hulk in terms of tone; more realistic and more about Steve Rogers than Captain America, just like the Hulk series was more about Bruce Banner than the Hulk. Unfortunately, while that tone works for the Hulk, it just doesn’t jibe with Captain America, whose whole identity practically is consumed with being Captain America. Also, yeah, they totally wasted Reb Brown in this.

  Now I’d watched and re-watched Spoony’s reviews of both films and just HAD to pick it up. Seemed a little over priced at 14 dollars; if I can get the entireity of the first season of robotech for a ten spot, 14 for two movies like this seems a bit much. But I bought it all the same.

No, Suppressed Revolver is very possible. All you would need is a specialised barrel to screw the suppresor on.

Anonymous

No. The gap between the barrel and cylinder means that gasses would escape anyway, meaning you’d still hear the gunshot with barely any reduction in volume. However, the Russian Nagant revolver presses the cylinder forward to achieve a gas seal before firing, rendering it one of the few revolvers that _can_ actually be suppressed, which was what was shown in the movie.

As bad as Superman Returns. Superman meets Lex Luthor face to face for like 3 minutes and he falls into an ocean. Movie was so bad and pointless when game adaptation came out, developers had to use TORNADO, which wasn’t in the movie, as BOSS.

I remember sitting in movie theater wondering two things.
1. How do people NEVER recognize Clark Kent as Superman when the only disguise tool is a pair of glasses.
2. When will there be fight between Lex Luthor and Superman.

Silenced revolvers are almost impossible… however you can pull it off with a Nagant revolver that incorporates a mechanism that forms a gas seal between the cylinder and the barrel.
