Captain America
the Winter Soldier is the story of a man that is lost, lost in time, lost in
history, lost in his memories of a world and people he knew and loved. He feels
the world had moved on in the wrong direction. Right is wrong and wrong is now
somehow morally acceptable. We see him floundering and looking for direction. Grasping
for a sense of belonging. In the end he decides to stick with what he knows,
right is right and he will stand for it and with those that also stand with it.
Something is not
right! S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents are being attacked and killed, operations are
compromised! Who is at fault! Where is the leak? A S.H.I.E.L.D. ship/launch pad
has been taken over by pirates with unknown demands! While Cap. and his team
rescue the captives Agent Romanoff downloads the contents of the computers at
the site. Rogers is angry about this because it risked the safety of his
mission, the rescue of the people.
Cap is called in
by Director Fury and finds there is a hidden agenda in S.H.I.E.L.D. It does not
sit well with Cap. First off Cap. is angry that Fury kept Romanoff’s assignment
from him. He is then further angered by finding that Fury has hidden a deeper
level of S.H.I.E.L.D., Project Insight: 3 Helicarriers linked to spy satellites
designed to preemptively eliminate threats.
Cap. feels uneasy
about S.H.I.E.L.D. preemptively striking people before they cause a problem. He
believes that people’s freedoms are at state and takes a step back to look at
the situation and decided what he will do. While trying to piece it all
together Cap. runs into a new friend and asks him for support. Sam Wilson
becomes the Falcon and helps Cap. First Sam helps Steve to deal with being home
from war. All service personal face a time of adjustment. He also goes back and
finds his old love, Peggy Carter. He visits her in a nursing home where she is
no longer the young beautiful woman he loved but an aged women who is losing
grip on reality.
Director Fury is
attacked and believed dead. Later when Cap. returns home he is chatting with
his neighbor when she tells him he left his stereo on. Cap. realizes he did not
and goes in through a window and finds an injured Fury in his living room. Fury gives him the thumb
drive that Romanoff had downloaded and told him to not trust anybody and hide
it. Shots ring out and once again Fury is hit. Romanoff and Cap. watch him be
pronounced dead in surgery after the attack.
Romanoff tells him
about a threat she has encountered before who has been assonating people for 50
years. This person is a ghost and does not exist on any official records but is
called The Winter Solider. The Winter Solider turns out to be Cap.’s friend
Bucky that he thought died in an attack on Hydra during World War II. It seems
Hydra had started “treatment” on him before Cap. rescued him. This allowed him
to survive the fall from the moving train and gave him the same abilities as
Cap. Sadly his memories have been erased and he does not remember who he is and
he is being used as a weapon.
Cap. is summoned
to the Head of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s office and told that Fury was a trader. As Cap.
is leaving he is attacked by former friends and fellow S.H.I.E.L.D. companions.
This is when he turns to Falcon and asks for his help and a place to hide. Soon
Cap finds that Fury is still alive and planning on taking S.H.I.E.L.D. back.
When it is finally
discovered that Hydra has infiltrated and taken over S.H.I.E.L.D. Cap. decides
to take down both S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra to stop the threat. He gathers a loyal
group of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents including Romanoff and Falcon to take the battle
to the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters. He refuses to allow either side to control people’s
lives. He will stand for freedom and individual rights.
Of course Cap. and
the team prevail and the world is safe once again . . . or is it? Sit through
the credits for hints as to what happens next! Watch a conversation between
Fury (now in hiding and without his eye patch), Cap, Falcon and Romanoff. Stay
to the VERY VERY end and see who comes back to visit the Captain America
Museum.
