Not only is it very brutal and realistic in terms of both getting so injured and tired by the end, it also works a perfect metaphor for trying to get someone to change their ideology or see the truth about the world and them stubbornly refusing because they want to stay comfortable. Roddy's character is trying to get him to wear the glasses which will help him see that aliens are among them and Keith David's character just won't do it.

Dandesun September 8, 2016 Share September 8, 2016 In the various Marvel movies... I love watching Cap fight. Even in the first Avengers movie where he really wasn't super duper powered or anything... his fight on the Hellicarrier with Loki's agents and then against the Chitauri at the bank. I love that he uses all sorts of things as weapons and I really love when he goes all turtle behind the shield. Winter Soldier? Love it. The entire movie of Cap kicking ass all. over. the. place. And it always perplexes me how Bucky as the Winter Soldier seems to be treated like the better fighter (especially in a lot of the fanfic out there -- don't get me started, that has basically taken over my life, it's a problem) when Cap either holds his own until the big Bucky reveal or flat out WINS the fight (come on, the bit where he holds Bucky up like two feet off the ground by his throat and then slams him to the floor of the Insight hellicarrier?) and is only then taken out due to a) more interested in completing the takedown of Hydra and Project Insight b) going back to save Bucky and then c) dropping the shield and refusing to fight. So, yeah, I love watching Cap fight. Just love it. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2688-best-movie-fight-scenes-ass-kicking-101/page/3/#findComment-2550485

The choreography, the smoothness of Bucky's moves and the shock Steve clearly registers at facing someone who is a real challenge, the gun and knife play.
