Likes : People are entitle to opinion which is fair enough , im sure i will get alot fan boy with stupid comments about what im about to say here, to be honest i dont care what they have to say because its my job to be objective point out the good & bad about this film, oh boy there is alot of bad with some good.

There are certain part i liked other i didn't , some areas of the film felt awkward like certain things were force , but The film story-line is bad its just felt winter soldier had a better feel than this film.

The fight scene are brilliant choreograph the acting is pretty sold , we get to see any ant man with a new power which was unexpected but kind of cool , but can't help feel they copied that from DC atom.

The film story follows the aftermath of age of ultron perfect along with some new development that force the government to act on group with the registration act as certain events cause alot of death , but the story also seem to be a redemption for bucky which was a good story continuity.

Action scene were good but some scene which i will put in the dislike were that great on screen , Were introduced with two new characters x-bones & black panther. Although x-bone's feel more of a cameo which i though he was one of the big villains in the marvel universe which felt a little off.

Black panther i will say was pretty awesome in the suit , the picture didn't really do the suit justice, but seeing it on the screen was better.

Chadwick Boseman was perfect casting choice for black panther , carried himself amazing on screen for a protector of his country with a brilliant performance. I'm glad they gave Elizabeth Olsen character with a better in depth look at her role showing a more human side to her with an awareness of her own powers we saw more depth to her character with some quick witty humor.

Comparing this film with the last one i can say that winter soldier had the better story all round , although civil has more of the emotional drama in it which is good , the tension between tony & captain is pretty clear in this film even more that the tony past come's up in the film adding even more problems between them.

There are some problems with this film but its not a bad film to watch , its some i can recommend to watch but dont except anything special from the film.

Dislikes : There is several problem's with this film one is starting with the camera work for the film , ive said this a few time in the past shaking camera in action scene is god awful when your trying to watch a fight scene the camera is all over the place.

Directors seem to think this add for dramatic effect but its not help the film in any way because your hardly seeing the action because the camera isn't focus on the people fight, its make you sea sick which im glad i watched this in 2D, because the shake camera really hurt the eyes when your trying to watch a fight sequences.

This happens through most of the fights its hard to see what is going, this is why this shake camera effect need to stop because it ruin the flow of the film.

Second problem is character development although Chadwick Boseman performance was brilliant with black panther there was nothing in a origin story what so ever , it felt like they had just thrown his character in just to introduce him with any back story other that a few words of how he became the black panther.

This is bad script writing leave the character in an odd position of iver feeling out of place or just thrown in for extra characters to fill the gaps with out thinking about it, sadly to say its a let down for such a great performance.

The third im sure im gonna get alot of flack for is spider-man , what the hell were they thinking dont get me wrong the spider-man suit look great, he had the right body size for spider man , as much as Tom Holland is a good actor this was not the right role for him.

The scene with spider-man felt out of place even the acting wasn't right for spider-man, this is bad casting because Tom Holland is a good act but he doesn't have the right cocky attitude that peter Parker has as spider man , the only person that has ever come close was Andrew Garfield.

Im not being funny spider-man in this film felt so awkward & out of place special with the banter just wasn't the right tone this is a failure for casting.

Fourth thing i noticed is the banter & campy joke even they felt awkward at times , dont get me wrong there are a few time its funny but some of the joke seriously fall flat on face unfunny awkward joke at the wrong moments this is not the standard marvel film usual has.   

Overall : Great story, slightly poor character scripting, poor casting for spider-man.

Rating: 5 out of 5 for entertainment / 6.8 out of 10 for story
