I almost entirely agree with Bob's list here but the only thing I disagree with is significant. His number 1 should be be far lower on the list.
He says we didn't notice that the Winter Soldier wasn't in the movie, but I did. It was glaringly apparent as a complete side plot of the story. Then you have the first half of the movie where the Capt mopes around town driving by his old dives ancient acquaintances with a tear in his eye. It was boring and went on far too long.
Likewise, is there any reason why Captain America can jump out of a plane and survive but has trouble fighting a random pirate one on one? Does that pirate also have super powers or soldier serum?
Also:
I did enjoy the three heroes of the movie though. Falcon, Black Widow, and Captain America have a nice dynamic going. But I think history will show this movie dropping several notches on Bob's list. So far the Avengers movie is the undisputed king of the avengers movie. Or should I compare Bob's avengers movie to the winter soldier movie for comparison? I think since we're fans of comics we've given this one a huge free pass at the moment that's going to have to rectified in hindsight when our fan-eyes wear off.

Anyone want to tell me why the villain didn't just kill the black widow and use the diplomats as hostages? Horribly stupid main villains is certainly a negative for me but I guess they wanted to pull a "magic spy disquise" move here for... reasons? The movie didn't get interesting until the falcon showed up and that was far too late in the movie.

Also:
You're not going to arrest me for my crimes because you need us? Black widow is just a very good spy but she's guilty of huge crimes from what I recall. I'm not sure why America needs another spy at the cost of forsaking law when they also have superheroes.
