I was hoping Captain America would be worth seeing at the theater, but I will most likely wait for Netflix now. Interesting point about the invulnerable superhero. Reminds me of the scene in the most recent Superman movie where some robbers shoot Superman in the eyeball (!) and the bullet bounces off harmlessly in slow motion. Nice special effect I guess, but it totally ruined any tension in the rest of the movie. I fear we have many more such slow motion sequences in Zach Snyder’s upcoming Man of Steel.
