Once in a blue moon Hollywood gets it. Instead of the feel-good pap it usually peddles, this action thriller takes the pulse of real America, their fears and forebodings. The characters go beyond cardboard comics, with some depth and introspection. And the action is awesome.
We have to travel back to World War II to do it, but this action film reminds us of our better angels. Captain America, a 98-pound weakling transformed into a super soldier hunk, wows us more with his character than his exploits, a red, white and blue package of courage, patriotism, and innocence as invincible as his Vibranium shield.
We already know the ending. The characters and the plot are not even approaching edgy. And yes, Disney does take a few liberties with the script. But nothing can take away that heart pounding finish when we watch what is arguably the greatest race horse who ever lived eat up the track at Belmont and leave the rest of the field in his dust.
What if the Nazis' deluded dreams did not die at the end of World War II? But instead merely staged a tactical retreat to South America? Discover the ominous implications in this classic 1978 thriller.
This thriller rivets you to your seat, even without screeching car chases, sexy spies, breathless action, or maudlin backstories. It goes deep and not wide, exploring all the implications of a single penetrating act.
