Thought it was a good movie, only things I didn't like were how the twist was explained and the Winter Soldier's identity. The movie starts to really pick up in the second act but when the twist was presented it was kind of vague, explained quickly and not in a way that was very interesting.
It should have, and could have been a big reveal holy f'ing crap moment. For instance the twist in Fight Club because it's so sudden and so clear, that's how to do it to really create an impact but the way it was done in this movie was just not handled well. Also similar to the way the Winter Soldier's identity was dealt with, the people in the theatre were pretty unresponsive with one guy murmuring that it was captain america's friend. Could have been done way better, climactic moments that warrant a response from the audience should not be anti-climactic, it's bad story telling.
