A Star-Spangled Misfire
Captain America (1990) stars Reb Brown as the iconic superhero. Albert Pyun directs the action. Itโs a nineties flick. Think neon, big hair, and a lot of slow-mo. Forget Robert Downey Jr. This Cap is all muscle and one-liners.
A Plot as Thin as Cardboard
Cap wakes up. Heโs got super powers. Red Skull is bad. Cap fights Red Skull. Thereโs explosions and slow-mo punches. Cap wins. Itโs simple. Itโs stupid. Itโs the nineties.
A Guilty Pleasure Gem
Ignore the critics. Captain America (1990) is a time capsule. It’s bad, but itโs so bad itโs good. Brown is a surprisingly decent Cap. The action is cheesy, but itโs fun. This movie is a neon-soaked, over-the-top superhero spectacle. Donโt watch it for a deep story. Watch it for the ridiculousness. Itโs a guilty pleasure.
