Captain America: Civil War | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Matthew Rozsa Salon.com It is one of the best movies to ever come out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, balancing engaging action set pieces and witty dialogue with intelligent character studies and ethical debates. Rated: 3.5/4 Aug 3, 2017 Full Review Captain America: Civil War | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Aramide Tinubu Shadow and Act Captain America: Civil War proves that Marvel knows how to lay down a stunning foundation in order to detail an epic saga. Apr 12, 2017 Full Review Captain America: Civil War | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com Captain America: Civil War is fun; it's too well made, acted and scripted for it to be anything less. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 11, 2016 Full Review Captain America: Civil War | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Cory Woodroof For the Win (USA Today) The airport battle is still one of the best scenes in all of these movies, and the introduction to Holland’s Spider-Man is still such a joy and the best use of his iteration of the character in this series. Feb 27, 2024 Full Review Captain America: Civil War | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Denise Pieniazek A Sala Llena (Argentina) The battles have few moments of lucidity compared to other Marvel films, since it seems that there lies the conflict of this new comics universe: achieving the balance between fights and words. Maybe they should take more time to develop the scripts... Rated: 4/10 Jan 14, 2024 Full Review Captain America: Civil War | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies By the end things are much different. Characters have been impacted. Relationships have been affected. Most importantly it sets before us a very interesting landscape and the potential for some incredibly intriguing storylines.

Anthony L A perfect introduction to the 3rd phase of the MCU. The story, dialogue, and action blend in a perfect stew of good times. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/01/21 Full Review Jeffrix good movie to follow the story arc. a few issues with the fight scene with all the heroes. vision disappeared through most of it conveniently. and I hate watching iron man and cap fighting. But it's got to follow the arc I guess. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/10/21 Full Review Lucky Street Music L All star cast and directing! Great writing and cinematography. Action packed and tells the story in such a great way with a well maintained balance between so many major characters. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/11/24 Full Review josh d Another Solid marvel entry. . Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Stan K Although more of a midpoint in that Marvel story arc, it was brilliant. The characters all had their moments without stealing from or eclipsing other characters. It is very rare to have that many primary and secondary characters in a film and give them all fair treatment.And the questions raised were legitimate and realistic, along with the individual characters reactions and choices because of the choices they had to make and why. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/08/24 Full Review Charlie M I think it’s the best of the trilogy. Emotions go hard, as do all of the characters’ interactions and all of the action sequences. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/24 Full Review Read all reviews
