I guess we can get the bad out of the way; the production is very cheap, the hero's costume and the makeup on the main villain (and a few other important characters) are not very convincing. The plot is more than a little condensed from the source material, which makes Captain America seem like a not very good hero. Even a short montage of his exploits in World War II could have helped set him up as a better hero. Also a lot of the cast really overact. The Good: Ronny Cox and Ned Beatty DO NOT simply phone in their performances, and they carry their scenes exceptionally well. Matt Salinger, as the titular Captain America and his altar ego, does have an "aw shucks" likability that helps him fit into the "All American" nature of the character. The script does not give him much to work with, but he is likeable and sells the "man out of time" aspect really well. Lastly, despite being mostly shot in Yugoslavia, the filming manages to sell a variety of locations very well. The silly fun: some of the editing and special effects will illicit (presumably unintentional) laughs, and those laughs will up the enjoyability factor. Despite some actors' overacting not being very good, Darren McGavin and Scott Paulin are both clearly having a blast playing deliciously evil characters. On the whole, Captain America 1990 is not a great film, but it is enjoyable. And if you are in the right mood, will make for a fun Tuesday night in front of the TV.

Not as bad as some say
Good film
I know it's not an amazing film but it's quite good for the time. It's good to see sin in a film as she is not used in the mcu and its a different twist on the red skulls story. Overall the action scenes aren't too bad and the ending is pretty good. 7 out of 10 for giving us a good film.
Cheesy But Not as Bad As Batman and Robin
im not gonna sit here and justify this movie cus it cant be its crap...however if you like cheesy film (and i do) then its so cheesy its actually quite good....the effects are weird the acting is terrible and the story is poor and really weird and full of plot holes, however for some strange reason i cant fully comprehend i enjoyed it....i love these cheesy films....that aren't delibertly bad....but just cus they were cheap and couldn't afford better actors and sets...the film goes in a strange direction and i like films like that for some strange reason i cant comprehend, it isn't a movie i can really recommend but if your a fan of movies such as "Plan 9 from outer space" then this is your movie you'll love this....if you hate movies like that and your a fan of transformers and modern action movies then i'd probably avoid this one i think
