CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR REVIEW 

"I can't go to Germany!" "Why not?" "I have homework" Fucking perfect Spider-Man right there

Adored it. 47 years old and gasped when Giant Man came on. Sweet times.

It gets overshadowed by the airport fight, but the close quarters fight scene in Bucky's apartment building was also a fantastic sequence. It reminds me of the elevator scene in Winter Solider.

"Do you guys remember that old movie Empire Strikes Back???" I lost my shit. Spidey was perfect.....

BvS: Stop fighting because of a mom. Civil War: Keep fighting because of a mom.

Bucky killing the Starks was subtly mentioned in Winter Soldier.

After two 5-second scenes, I want a Bucky/Falcon buddy movie directed by Shane Black more than anything else on Marvel's upcoming slate. Also, loving that Buckeroo jersey.

Ironman: "Who is talking?" Antman: "This is your conscience..." ;)

I'm glad to see others who liked the use of Zemo. I loved his role in the movie.

"A delivery for TONY STANK!!!" -Stan Lee 2016 LOL

The airport scene, final fight, Vision and Wanda scenes, Spidey, Ant Man... man you know what? EVERYTHING in this movie was just so good. might be the first time ever that I want to rewatch a movie in the theater again.

52:48 ; called it on Sam taking up the Captain America mantle 😉

Another amusing part of this movie: Tony goes, "life signals detected." Cap goes, "How many?" Tony answers, "One." Then we see Zemo. Then we see Black Panther behind them all. Tony's suit didn't detect Black Panther!

Spider Man was so different in this movie! He fought differently, he slung his webs differently, all of his movements were different! He also felt like a kid! "You have a robot arm! That's so cool!" "Guys! They're not stopping!" They made Falcon (worse Iron Man in the movies) into a really fucking cool hero! They introduced the Vision + Scarlett Witch romance!!!! They changed my favorite superhero to Black Panther!!!!

Watching all these back episodes on RU-vid really make me appreciate how amazing Kevin looks these days. Really great work, brother, and thanks for being around for basically my whole life making awesome movies and podcasts and enriching my world in general.

You guys are the 1st reviewers I've seen who's actually mentioned the young Stark part and how good the CG looked. I was waiting for someone to say something about it lol.

if this is what they can put together for Civil War, Infinity War is going to be like a Cinematic Event for the ages

My wife got broke down when they acknowledged Peggy Carter. That was perfect closure. And somewhat sucks if the series gets canceled now.

Tony was aware that Bucky was victimized as a brainwashed Hydra assassin but once he found out he killed his parents, logic turns into rage. I loved that.

Favorite moment in the movie: Tony: "Do you even remember them?" Bucky: "I remember all of them."

review starts at 10:45

surprised they didn't mention the Spiderman- AT-ST death on Hoth reference

Paralyzed Rhodey was definitely a consequence of the events in Civil War. His speech about running 138 or so combat missions knowing each time that the mission could be his last really hit me hard.

As MGM was to musicals, Universal Studios to monsters etc. Marvel is to super hero movies. This is truly Marvel's cinematic golden age ( with literary silver and bronze age books). They have developed a winni g formula that we should all enjoy as like all great things it will eventually end. Let's all enjoy this remarkable level of creativity, consistency, and excellence. Hard to believe that Iron Man was almost ten years ago, they took their time, built a great brand, and put their faith in the fact that these movies appeal to nerds and non-nerds alike. Amazing really.

i cried real tears of joy when spoder-men jumped in and was in the same movie as the avengers

This movie is a big achievement being able to cram so many superheroes into one film...make it serious, humorous, and fun the entire time. All characters get a chance to shine..all while directed beautifully.

Kevin Smith is a fantastic writer. Dogma should go down in history as art.

Cap seeing potential in Spiderman for that brief moment was SO COMIC I almost cried

MISSION REPORT; DECEMBER 16th 1991

I was happy that you two liked Zemo, because a lot of people didn't get how brilliant he really was. The fact that he did all of this by himself without any outside help and that he had a plan for every single eventuality was really great. He was also the only villain (aside from Loki in Thor 2) who ever _succeeded_ in their plan.

yeah Ross asking them about Thor and Hulk and comparing them to Weapons of Mass Destruction (which they are ABSOLUTELY capable of) was pretty damn clever

I know everyone loved Spiderman, lord knows I did too. But for me, the addition of Ant Man puts the biggest smile on my face.

These guys have such great chemistry together

You see the Shakespeare resounding heavily in the Thor films-with all the family drama between the brothers, and tension between the sons and the father.

Another part I love about this movie is of how Spiderman has a bit of both young Steve Rogers qualities and Tony's smartass geek talking. Spiderman is EXACTLY like this in the comics. He gets on his enemies nerves, he is simple and righteous. He is really strong and a geek too. They also didn't stop there with the parallels of him with other heroes. He stopped a car in the youtube video, something that amazes Stark (who did the same in Ironman 1) and fought Captain, then losing and lifting the big airport thingy a feat that amazes Captain (who fought Winter Soldier, then got hurt but still lifted the big metal pillar) and then they exchange info about their hometowns Queens and Brooklyn with Cap saying the kid got heart. (which is a parallel to Cap's and Erskin's talk in First Avenger) I probably exaggerate things a bit (I also don't speak the best English sorry) but I really thinκ these specific interactions where placed there on purpose by Russo brothers (who also are Spidey fans) to introduce a hero that is part of the new generation to come, after the Infinity Wars. Oooh God I love this movie!

When Kev said I'm gonna cry I completely understood

Best scene for me is when Steve finally kisses Sharon then looks over to Sam and Bucky and they give him the approving nod. No words exchanged but it said so much!

I watched it 2 hours ago and I can say definitely without no doubt, the airport battle was one of the best fight scenes in any superhero movie. Civil War was more than a superhero movie, it was another political thriller and was directed and choreographed perfectly. The performances too were grounded as well of the introduction of the new characters. Spider man, Black Panther and Antman were the stand outs of the movie. It also has some issues but other than that I would give it a 9/10.

I love when Spiderman says he can't go to Germany because he has homework. It was actually relatable.

The reveal of Bucky killing the Starks is actually hinted at in The Winter Soldier when Zola is showing Cap and Widow of all the assassinations Hydra was involved with. They show a quick picture of Howard Stark.

I loved that little moment when ant-man said : "Here's your shield Captain America"

The Captain America trilogy has become the absolute best superhero trilogy.

They've established Winter Soldier killing Howard Stark in Captain America: Winder Soldier. Arnim Zola says "Accidents Happen" and the pictures shown are Howard and Bucky. That's how Cap knows that Bucky killed Howard.

I like how people got scared of and got careful around Scarlet Witch the same way they did in the first Avengers with Bruce Banner as if they're too unstable when that's the exact environment they shouldn't be in. And how part of Team of Cap was to defend her as well, the way Tony treated Bruce like a human. It was a nice parallel.

U didn't give props to Bucky! I paid to see Civil War 4 times, and I'm still willing to go again

liked when Peter was going to explain his orgin and Tony cut him off

Black panther/spidey show and Paul Rudd is just a delight

Great job! I'm happy to hear Kevin defend Iron Man 2. Was it a perfect movie, NO. But it had a lot more good than bad. Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer was amazing-- his "Ex-Wife" weapons demo monologue is one of the greatest comedy scenes in all of Marvel's films. Also, I dare anyone to say they didn't geek out watching Iron Man and War Machine kicking arse at the end of the film. The mix of humor and action is perfect. It's a highly entertaining film even with some of the slow world building plots in the middle.

I shit my pants when Bucky grabbed that motorcycle omg

It's almost as if Black Widow was on caps side the whole time and knew he would benefit if she pretended to be on Tony's side. Am I right or am I right?

"The simple poetic beauty of a boy" - Kevin Smith, 2016

it's implied in Captain America Winter Soldier that Howard was assasinated by winter soldier. during zolas explanation about hydra

I stand with The Captain as my heart breaks for Stark.

I feel like Kevin Smith is the only person who can constantly cuss and I will constantly laugh

C'mon Kevin, how could you not mention Spidey referencing Empire Strikes Back?

LOL!!! My favorite review of Civil War! I can't believe I didn't know this channel existed.

YASSSS!!!! I skipped out of work and saw it by myself at a noon screening. Leaning forward, on the edge of my seat almost the whole movie.

The Scene where (not Spoiling) and you can see the anger on Robert Downey Jr's face as the rage consumes him was amazing.

"That thing just doesn't obey the laws of physics" that is the great moment with Spidy.

Man, I wish I wish to be a guest on this show. Great review! Listened to the whole thing while shooting Hot Toys Ultron.

I liked how they used the Ant-Man post credit scene IN the movie. They should do that more. Gave me a smile when I realized what they did. So smart.

FINALLY SOMEONE SAID HOW AWESOME VILLAIN ZEMO WAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kevin is right, the Bluth stair car is seen right before Ant-man throws the "water truck" at Rhodey lol

If only Tony's mom and Steve's mom had the same name.

If we're looking for a classic series to compare to, a better comparison for the Captain America trilogy would be the "Dollars trilogy" (aka The Man with No Name trilogy). All three installments are considered great examples of the genre, with each one also being regarded as better and more ambitious than the last. The first movie is a relatively straightforward genre film, the second introduces a strong friend/foe for the hero, and the third is an epic that juggles a larger cast of characters. Civil War is The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly of Comic Book Movies

I could still be nerd high, but this was the best comic book movie I've seen. Have to see it again tomorrow morning. Every character was handled properly, the plot was really well laid out, you knew why everyone chose which side, and the action omg. I thought they were going to do the shakey cam thing all movie so I was worried at first. The fight scenes were amazing and they used Black Panther so damn well, thanks Marvel and Chadwick for that, it really meant a lot to me.

HAHAHA THE BLUTH STAIRCAR!!!! KEVIN SAW IT! I knew I saw it but it happened so fast.

i cant believe you guys didnt talk about Sharon carter speech, 'compromise when you can but when you cant DONT. . . .even if everyone is telling you to move, plant yourself like a tree and tell them to move". . . .made me want to suit up. . . .

When Tony and Peter had their conversation I nearly cried. It was just the feeling of completeness, the Marvel superheros TOGETHER. I swear to you Kev and Marc, if Fox comes to the table and the X-men make any kind of appearance in Infinity War, I will weep like a baby. I loved this flick for so much but that moment, where he was there with Tony, it was euphoric!

to the people arguing about how Civil War wasn't like the comic books version.... the comic version was nowhere NEAR as good as the movie version.

they told you winter soldier killed the starks in winter soldier. thats why cap says i knew and didnt tell you

I didn't the ending coming either other than when they were going to Siberia and I remembered the trailer with Cap and Bucky fighting Iron Man. That's when I started to think something was up but even still I didn't see it coming until the flash back. I totally agree with you in that I was on Cap's side until the big reveal. Suddenly I was feeling it for Stark. Dudes, I loved Iron Man 2 more than Iron Man. I agree with you. Mickey Rourke going nuts with a bad Russian accent is gold, man.

Never commented on any video before in my life. But Kevin freaking Smith just sang Bowie/Labyrinth and my life has forever been made just a little bit better for it. Thank you!!

12:23 "Mark, we don't have to lower any one to raise someone up!" Way to come to BVS's defense! Love it!!!

Captain America: Civil War is the most creative superhero movie ever made.

By the way, the assassination of Tony's parents is seen in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, when Cap. and Widow are in the basement with Armin Zola or whats-his-face he shows them some microfilm with that info.

This is the best, most comprehensive review of the movie I've watched yet and I love it!

"When you can do what I can do...and you don't. And then the bad things happen...they happen because of you." Loved it.

GREAT REVIEW!!! I have to go and see this movie again! It's like this movie went so fast and great that my emotions haven't caught up with me now! I absolutely loved this movie! Favorite parts 1) Ironman/Cap/WS end fight 2) Airport fight 3) Black Panther- everything about him 4) Spiderman- Everything about him 5) Falcon and WS banter back and forth- Falcon is perfect, seems like he's saying I'm Cap's new #1 and your stealing my thunder

Well i thought the reveal at the final third wasnt all surprising as Armin zola alludes to it in Captain america winter solider on the screen when he is distracting cap

Cap's betrayal added insult to serious injury when you consider Cap was giving Tony shit in Age of Ultron for "not telling him" important information.

10:23 to skip the lootcrate shit.

I saw the "twist" of Bucky killing the Starks ever since the first time you see the car crashing in the woods. I called it and thought I was wrong when it wasn't revealed. Still a great plot device that turned me to team Iron Man at the very end

Only disagreement I have is I believe Zemo HAD to know that Bucky killed the Starks BEFORE he embarked on his revenge plot. His entire plan hung on that detail being exposed to Tony. All he needed was the proof to unveil.

Thanks to the Russo brothers .. . they use the DEAN from the TV show Community as the DEAN of MIT!!! Nice call back Russos!!!

i love how peter explains why he has the goggles on his old costume

Goodfellas Kev Civil War is the Goodfellas of comic book movies

Kevin is easily within the top ten people ever. you could chill with that dude and not get bored. it could be the end of the world and a hangout with him would have you wetting your pants laughing. jesus could be depending in the clouds and a few remarks from this man would force him to ascend back up let the laughter out then come back down. completely down to earth. respect.

wow, it actually was the Bluth stair car. Didn't catch it, good one brothers

Empire Strikes Back, you mean that really old movie?

39:51 I honestly didn't think it was so surprising. During Winter Soldier when Cap is talking to Zola, he shows a picture of Howard Stark and says something like "sacrifices had to be made" stating Hydra killed Howard Stark. And in every shot they showed the Winter soldier killing someone in flashes. It seemed like a easy connection to jump to that Bucky was ordered to take him out. I also think he killed Kennedy apparently lol

I love the last line YOU DONT DESERVE THAT SHEILD CAP MY FATHER MADE IT

i listen to this like a lullaby to sleep at night to see you speak with the writers of this wonderful movie was a true treat. bless 2018

Marc is right. The Empire Strikes Back of superhero movies.

10:40 for actual start of review.

RDJ and Marisa Tomei were previously in Chaplin and Only You together.

Civil War is basically Dawn of Justice done right. An all-american hero facing off against a rich playboy tech-savvy cynic, manipulated by a mastermind with a bone to pick, with a bunch of political background. It's the same movie, but better on every account!

How crazy is it Kevin Smith only has 166,000 subscribers on youtube???? compared to those with millions but....not going there...it blows my mind....wow....

You guys can go in so many directions in your 'casts. But the fact that you reach into the depths and mention Strikeforce Morituri, AND Marc says "We who are about to die...". I love you both.

Ooooooooh the second end credits scene is brilliant!!
