MOVIE REVIEW: Captain America: Civil War

For years, the Avengers have gone around saving the world however they felt like it, often leaving destruction in their wake. Now people are getting fed up: they want the Avengers to be accountable for their actions. So the world’s governments pressure the Avengers to sign the Sokovia Accords, which would put them under the control of the United Nations. In theory, this would stop them from accidentally hurting innocent people.

But not all the Avengers agree with the Sokovia Accords. Those who sign and those who don’t become enemies, Iron Man fighting for the government and Captain America fighting to save his fugitive friend. And with the Avengers fighting each other, who’s left to stop the real bad guys?

And whose side are you on?

The best thing about Civil War is that it throws all our favourite characters together and makes them each answer an important question: whose side are you on? It’s a nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat adventure story that will leave you wondering where the Avengers can possibly go from here.

So gear up from a great time, because Captain America: Civil War hits theatres today!
