Brave New World's title could have been smart and nuanced, but ultimately deflates into an underwhelming tool to set up the path ahead.

Captain America: Brave New World isn’t the best or the worst MCU film. It has some genuinely fun action scenes. There’s a good political thriller buried in the overstuffed plot. Anthony Mackie did a really great job as Captain America, and as someone who is generally not a huge fan of Mackie, I’m happy to report that he really grew on me here.
