One Hundred Words for Captain America: The First Avenger

I’m not comic book movie’d out, but I wanted to see Captain America about as much as Thor (very little). Imagine my surprise when I really enjoyed it.
The effects made Chris Evans look sickly and Hugo Weaving look sick (the good kind of sick. Think wicked sick). Agent Smith proved he’s so much better as a villain, and in Captain America, a deranged, super-powered, anti-Hitler, German mastermind with the power of the Gods at his disposal. Tommy Lee Jones is spectacular comic relief, and the ‘death’ scene broke my heart.
See it on the big screen. It’s worth it!

It's the last week of July, darlings. I'm 'this close' to finishing the first draft of my revamped MS. Exciting! How about you? Close to your July goals?
We'll touch on self publishing on Wednesday, and my Friday post will actually be on Sunday for Lisa Galek's Harry Potter contest. Sign up today!

Captain America looks good. ; ) Thanks for the review.

As for my July goals: I added a few and accomplished them and I'm closing in on the big orginal one--to complete the SFD of my first page of outline. All in all, a good month.

It's a great movie. It's being called the best super hero movie yet in a lot of the big reviews.
