Winter Soldier Vs Civil War - Which Is Better?

For lovers/fans of the Captain America series: The first Avenger (2011), Winter Soldier (2014) and Civil War (2016), you will agree with me that this is one of the most successful Marvel movies made joining the likes of Spiderman, Iron Man and Incredible Hulk.

But the most surprising thing about the movie is Steve Rogers (Captain America) is just a guy with a shield. In short, he does not have any special powers neither does he have crazy tech like Tony Stark's Iron Man... yet the movie was a total success.

Credit it to good story lines, wonderful acting and brilliant production. It is a pity that a hero such as Superman of DC comics does not have such a feat even though the hero is adjudged to be the most powerful - He has it all. The movie "Dawn of Justice" can well be branded "a complete disaster" given the potential of the hero we are talking about.

Going back to the debate on which is better between Winter Soldier and Civil War, I stick with the former. It was a bit of a hard choice though but if you were to briefly take out the extra characters that adorned Civil War you will understand why I decided to go for it.

For me, Winter Soldier was quite matured and serious. Complete with action and suspense filled. It did not have much of the 'by the side talks'. It was strictly business among other things. 
Civil war was a movie I really longed to watch after seeing the trailers but it failed to beat my expectations.

If you are yet to watch Captain America Civil War, by all means do so. It will be worth your while and if you plan to watch Superman Vs Batman: "Dawn of Justice", I would suggest you save your cash for something else.
