The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (2021)

This movie definitely brought back Winter Soldier/Civil War vibes. It wanted to be an exciting thriller while still making a statement. That statement was in regard to race and legacy. You can’t take the easy way out. You have to face things or people fight back. The pacing felt slow at times but every character was amazing and had their struggles. It was a well-crafted story and seeing Sam grow to accept his role as the new Captain America was amazing. It’ll also be cool to see John Walker in the dark avengers they are slowly building.
