Plot:
The story of Captain America: The Winter Soldier starts at two years after the big fight of The Avengers at New York. Steve (Captain America) is trying to get used to the modern lifestyle. Once he is sent to a mission by S.H.I.E.L.D. to rescue some high ranked agents from terrorist. In that mission, Steve finds agent Romanoff (Black Widow) trying to steal some data from the terrorist with a flash drive.

Steve comes back to director Fury in S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarter. He then learns about the project Insight of S.H.I.E.L.D., which is designed to to eliminate all terrorism threats from earth by using satellite controlled guns. Fury fails to retrieve data from the flash drive of Romanoff and gets suspicious. He is then attacked by the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, who try to kill him. Finally Fury manages to take shelter at Steve's house.

After coming home, Steve finds Fury there. Fury hands him the flash drive and warns him not to trust anyone. Then Fury gets shot by an assassin. Steve chases the assassin, but he escapes. Steve also finds that his next door neighbour is an undercover secret agent, who is appointed by Fury to protect Steve. On the next day, Fury dies in the surgery table. Romanoff tells Steve about the assassin, who is known as “The Winter Soldier”.

S.H.I.E.L.D. high official Pierce calls Steve and asks him about his last conversation with Fury. Steve doesn't cooperate. Then the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents tries to capture Steve, but he escapes. He then meets Romanoff, who helps him to escape from the search. Their flash drive leads them to an abandoned bunker, which is the birthplace of S.H.I.E.L.D. There, with that flash drive, they find the existence of Zola (a villain from the prequel). Zola tells them how Hydra has infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. Steve and Romanoff escapes from there just before a missile shot by S.H.I.E.L.D. destroys that bunker.

They then goes to Steve's friend Sam's (Falcon) house, who, after learning all these, agrees to cooperate with them. They then interrogates another S.H.I.E.L.D. high official, and learns that Hydra, by infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D., is planning to kill all of its enemies by using Project Insight.

On their way back from there, Steve, Romanoff and Sam again get attacked by the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. This time, the Winter Soldier is leading the attach. At one time, Steve recognizes the Winter Soldier as Bucky, his best friend, who was apparently killed in a mission with him. They get caught by the S.H.I.E.L.D., but a good agent who is not a member of Hydra, saves them and brings them back to a secret location.

Steve (Captain America) now knows Hydra's plan. But can he stop it? He knows, with the help of Sam and Romanoff, he has to stop Hydra from using Project Insight, even at the price of his own life. But how will he deal with Bucky, his best friend? What can they do when the top most agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. are members of Hydra? Can dead Fury come to any help? Let's watch the movie to know the answers.

My review about the movie Captain America: The Winter Soldier:
First of all, I really liked the movie Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

The plot of this movie was great. It will seem extraordinary good considering its a superhero movie. On most of the superhero movies, for example, The Amazing Spiderman, the plot stays very simple. But Captain America: The Winter Soldier has a complex plot with some political involvements, which make the movie deep and interesting. Although the ending is predictable, but that will not make you feel boring. The direction and screenplay of this movie will also seem fabulous.

All of the main and side characters of Captain America: The Winter Soldier are well reputed artists and everyone have acted well here. The dialogues are also great. You will find no imperfection with the make ups and the costume designs. Here the costume of Captain America is a little different from the prequel, but it looks nice. The lighting, set designs, camera works and special effects were very impressive. The music and sound effects were also good.

The only thing the director missed to show in Captain America: The Winter Soldier was, as it was a story after two years from the New York incident, why Captain America didn't call for The Avengers when all of their lives were at risk.

There was no scene in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which can restrict the kids from watching this movie.

Now, if you haven't already watched Captain America: The Winter Soldier, then I have two tips for you. First, don't stop watching when the end credits start. It has two in credit sequences, which will give a teaser for the next Captain America or The Avengers movie. Second, remember that this movie is full of Easter eggs, that is, stuffs hidden throughout the movie. You will be able to find most of them if you are a big fan of the comics. But if you are not, please do a google search on “Captain America: The Winter Soldier Easter eggs” after finishing the movie (as most of them will have spoilers). Even if you are not a fan of the comics of this series, but still knowing the background plots or predictions will surely amaze you.

After seeing one of the end credit sequence, I got happy to guess that, there could be a chance to bring the X-men characters with The Avengers. But after reading about the Easter eggs, I found that it is never going to happen, as the two company holds the copyright of those two sets of characters. How sad!

So, overall, Captain America: The Winter Soldier was a great movie. You will like it even if you are not a big fan of superhero movies. I will definitely recommend watching it to all movie fans.
