Close enough to a Saturday morning cartoon...but still good movie!
14 February 2006
Being that I've read "the ultimates" beforehand and heard rumors that they were working on this movie at least 2 yrs ago; I was surprised when i actually got to see it.

The story revolves around Captain America, not entirely how he was made but during his times in World War II and his frozen "Demise". suddenly waking up in the 21st century with everything changing around him and an old alien threat looming in the mist an old school hero must call upon help from a new school team with the help of Nick fury (which i felt the person playing the voice of him was a bit bland but good all together). call upon Iron man, Wasp, Giant man, Thor, and Black widow to take down the opposing forces and from within as well.

The animation is evolved but not enough to satisfy most people but i will give them credit for bringing the team that did the ultimates to come in to work with the animation. the voice overs aren't up to standards but they will suffice to make the pace of the movie fast and furious right up to the climax...the story alone is taken out of the Ultimates and "Ultimate Nightmare" which is a side comic of the Ultimates during the time of an alien threat just bits and pieces though so don't expect too much. All in all the movie is good to match wits with a typical Saturday morning cartoon and I wouldn't be surprised if they do continue it to Saturday mornings but the movie is fast at times, the fights are pretty damn good but its not just a kids movie there are some scenes of violence that even i thought either can make or break this movie trust me someone will be bloodied up or broken...the story is typically straight from the ultimate series, and the voice acting could be better but this still a movie to watch...check it out!
