Seen on TV many years ago, this Captain America version stands up very well today, however, the master that this DVD is made from, is of very poor quality. OK, this is an Authentic " Region O " import, but most (not all) DVD's made available this way, that I have seen, are from top quality, crystal clear, source material, but this is a disappointing, dark, grainy version on the DVD, similar to the lowest VHS picture quality, you could possibly imagine, maybe 1 out of 10 & the sound is not much better at 3/10.
Overall, a very disappointing DVD, of so poor quality that it won't be added to my collection. The day's when buyers & collector's, like myself, would accept inferior quality material, just to own your very own copy, are long gone & I won't lower my standards, as rubbish is still rubbish, no matter what format it is presented in.
BE WARNED, don't waste your money!
( The 2 star rating is for the DVD quality only! ) Captain America (1990) Matt Salinger, Ronny Cox, Ned Beatty
This movie was very short lived in the theaters back in the 90's I bought it on Lazer Disc glad that it is on DVD now.
Although it lacked some action and the effects where not up to par the story still stuck with the original comic book to some degree Matt Salinger looked the part and played it well.
This Captain is not a steroid super muscled guy but a skinny guy who had polio who was given the Super Solider serum.
This Transformed him into a Batman type of Super Athlete.
And the added plot line of love lost because his girl friend who he left behind waited for him quite a few years holding out hope he was still alive.
It also had a green theme also with the bill to reduce toxic waist by the president.
This also gave the Red Scull a good back story as a boy who was a genius level who was taken from his family given the same treatment as Captain America and was disfigured.
Great Family fun. Some blood and gore but not any where near today's standard.
buy this one it is worth it. - Captain America - Superhero - X-men - Spider-man'
