2011 Captain America Movie Poster

Captain America: The First Avenger [PG-13]


This WWII-set adventure film follows an American soldier as he evolves from an ordinary fighter to a revered war hero.

Played by Chris Evans, the soldier finds himself gaining super-human strength and agility after taking an experimental super-serum, allowing him to perform tasks no ordinary human ever could.

Kids will love the action-packed scenes in this newest film from Marvel Comics, but some scenes might be a little too scary and intense for younger viewers.

In theaters July 22.

Next: The Help [PG-13]
