Captain America: The Winter Soldier


Most of us realised that we never watched this before.  My daughter had, having watched it when she binged on Marvel superhero films over the summer holidays. This is much better than the first Captain America film, though to be fair, it was the end that ruined that film.

Watching this after watching the other films means that the plot does not have the surprises that are present, but despite that, it has enough twists and turns to make it enjoyable.  Like other Marvel films (Blade 2&3 excluded) this is a good film and well worth watching. What makes it more interesting is watching it after ‘patriots’ including service men and women invaded the US capitol in an attempt to overthrow democracy and impose what they felt was a just leader instead.

Today, we did some work in the garden and visited a garden centre.  Not too busy a day, a relaxing part of the Easter Weekend which is much needed before I return to work on Monday.
