Captain America: The First Avenger by Alan Silvestri

Alan Silvestri is one amazing composer. Some of my favorite works of his are from Forrest Gump, Captain America: The First Avenger, and The Avengers. I really hope that he will be the composer of the next Captain America film along with the two Avenger movies set to release in the mere future. Of course, since this post is titled "Captain America", I will be briefly discussing this score.

Captain America: The First Avenger is one of the best movies in the Avenger series. Maybe I feel this way because I love history. It has some good action sequences in it, and the overall story is great. There’s only one downside to this film, though. Steve (Captain America) never gets back to the woman he loves at the end because they had to do something to bring him into The Avengers. What makes this film even more exciting and enjoyable is, well, the score.

The music from this score has some slight similarities to the music in The Avengers, but this is probably just because Alan Silvestri composed both scores. The main theme for Captain America is well done. It brings joy, and is memorable. You will experience some quiet music in the beginning, but as you get into it, it gets more and more intense. Below is a complementary link to the soundtrack for your enjoyment. Take a little time and listen to it, then come back and share your thoughts.
