Liked it but didn't love it. It got a lot of hype but having Bucky come back was horrible.

While I also found it good (ok, very good) but not great category, I can't disagree more about the Bucky story. I thought they did an excellent job on that story-line.

I thought the Widow/Cap friendship scenes were a little forced. And Redford kind of took me out of the suspension of disbelief some - felt kind of like a gimmick casting. And the whole "gotta take down all three "ships" also seemed a little too convenient.

But the plot was tight. The action scenes were good, the Falcon storyline was acceptable and I liked the "don't trade freedom for security" message.
