Hats off to the creators of the 1970's Captain America movies, to get two feature length films out in one year is highly impressive.

This time Cap must take on a villian who intends to hold America to ransom or he'll unleash a virus that causes enhanced ageing in it's victims.

Once again alike the first film this is as cheesy as it gets and has a feel about it that it would have worked better as a television series rather than movies.

The whole thing is very silly and hard to take seriously at all but this is still an improvement on the first film. The story is sound, it's just the execution that is lacking.

I feel they swung above their weight and took on a project that was not only too big for them but too ahead of it's time.

Better than the first but still pretty damn bad.

The Good:

Christopher Lee

The fact it was churned out within less than a year from the previous film

The Bad:

Can't take that suit seriously

Very "A-Team" vibe

I get the impression animals weren't taken good care of on set

Damn cheesy

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Captain America's two main powers seem to be fight avoidance and fleeing

A common american 70's station wagon can outrun a superheroes "Super" bike

We never did get to see Captain Americas painting

It might be a slight improvement over it's predecessor, but it is nowhere close to being a good movie. The plot is always being explained to the viewer through a ton of exposition, the action is boring and the characters are incredibly one-dimensional, resulting in an adaptation that is a waste of good source material, a waste of Christopher Lee's talent and a waste of time in general.

This is an awful movie, much worse than its prequel "Captain America" from the same year, 1979. The action scenes are ridiculous, the soundtrack is horrible (perhaps the worst I have ever listened, together with Captain Battle's) and acting is as bad as in the previous Captain America TV film.

Besides that, the words "terrorism" and "revolution" are used as synonyms, and the hero attacks workers in the harbor because there is a chance that they are the ones who deal with illegal commodities (but off course it was possible that they were innocent!).

Everything is bad in "Captain America II: Death Too Soon", in spite (or not) of Christopher Lee (yes! he did not act badly) as the villain.
