Captain America....the first Avenger. When we first see Steve Rogers at the beginning of the film, he is a puny little man with a strong character and a good heart.
The movie is set during World War II. Steve Rogers wants to enlist but is constantly being labeled as 4F. A German scientist sees potential in Rogers and in using a special formula that he injects into Rogers, turns him into a tall, muscular super soldier. *insert sigh from nearly every teenage girl.*
Rogers takes on the name "Captain America" and goes overseas to battle the Nazi mastermind- the Red Skull. While defeating the Red Skull though, the Captain is forced to land the aircraft he is on in a frozen tundra- making an ultimate sacrifice. He wakes up 70 years later after a group of Americans rescue him.
"Captain America" isn't just about a handsome young soldier. It is about a genuine hero who would risk everything to defeat evil and save his country and the world- sounds like any soldier, doesn't it?
God Bless til I get back from Beeton-ton!!!!
