Review Detail

This is a simple edit that inserts a couple of solid deleted scenes that really should have been in original cut, as all but one give more depth and humanity to Steve Rogers. Any fan of The First Avenger should check out the Star Spangled Edition for the definitive Captain America origin story.

A few slight technical tweaks could be made to improve the overall experience. Visually it's near perfect, only the extended ending scene in Time Square has some noticeably blurred out billboards that were digitally changed in the theatrical cut. It's not the most distracting thing. However, there are some more distracting audio issues, mainly the dialog track being limited to left-side only. There is also a brief moment in the Time Square scene where you can hear Nick Furry starting to ask if Steve will be okay - in the original audio from the theatrical cut. Not very noticeable again, just a nit pick. If the audio could be adjusted so that the dialog comes out stereo, it would be most excellent!
