His journey becomes complicated when he meets the newly elected U.S. President Thaddeus Ross (portrayed by Harrison Ford), who is later transformed into the superpowered Red Hulk. Sam finds himself entangled in an international crisis involving a powerful substance known as adamantium, leading to a global conspiracy that threatens world stability .🎬 Critics The film received mixed reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a 48% critic score and a 78% audience score, indicating a more favorable reception from general viewers . Critics praised the performances, particularly those of Mackie and Ford, but noted that the film's pacing and visual identity were inconsistent. Some felt it struggled to distinguish itself from previous MCU entries .📺 Streaming Availability As of April 2025, Captain America: Brave New World is available for digital purchase or rental on platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Fandango At Home. The film is expected to arrive on Disney+ around late May or early June 2025, following the studio's typical release pattern .📷 Visuals The film features impressive action sequences, including a mid-air battle showcasing Sam Wilson's aerial combat skills. However, some critics felt that the visual style lacked the dynamic energy seen in earlier Captain America films.💰 Box Office Performance As of May 10, 2025, Captain America: Brave New World has grossed approximately $415.1 million worldwide, with $200.5 million from the United States and Canada and $214.6 million from international markets. Despite a strong opening weekend of over $192 million globally, the film experienced a significant decline in its second week, with a 68% drop in domestic earnings. This drop is among the steepest in the MCU, following The Marvels and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. The film's performance has been considered underwhelming, especially given its estimated production budget of $180 million, not including marketing costs. Analysts had projected a worldwide gross of $425 million for the film to break even, indicating that its current earnings may not cover its expenses. In comparison to other films released in 2025, Captain America: Brave New World ranks fourth in global box office earnings, trailing behind Ne Zha 2, A Minecraft Movie, and Detective Chinatown 1900. The film's performance has sparked discussions about the evolving dynamics of the MCU and audience reception to new characters and narratives.🧾 Conclusion Captain America: Brave New World marks a bold chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Anthony Mackie stepping fully into the role of Captain America. The film blends political intrigue, new character dynamics, and high-stakes action, introducing figures like Red Hulk and teasing future threats. While its reception has been mixed—praised for performances but critiqued for pacing and visual style—it still delivers meaningful character development and lays groundwork for upcoming MCU narratives. Fans of the franchise will find it a significant, if not flawless, evolution of the Captain America legacy.
