Captain America: Civil War

With 12 movies in 8 years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe can feel a bit crowded sometimes.  Here we have the existential crisis of the Superhero - should he exist at all?  It was part of the trial  in the Dark Knight Rises, the Congressional hearing in Batman v. Superman:  Dawn of Justice and now the U.S. military sees our heroes as a threat.  Of course they are!

What do they do?  Choose sides, 6 apiece, for a winner-take-all battle.  The crashing Iron Mans can get a little slow after (how many?) movies but at least you know what to expect.  The most unexpected comes in the smallest package of Ant-Man.  Cheers to bringing a few new characters such as Black Panther into the fold.   And a recycled Spider-Man.  Maybe the next 12 movies will be OK after all.
