The earlier installments have typically leaned toward longer runtimes to explore their complex narratives. While some fans are excited for a faster-paced film, the brevity has sparked mixed reactions. Marvel’s recent history with shorter runtimes has been met with criticism.
People believe that these films didn’t allow enough time for character development and storytelling. However, despite these concerns, ‘Brave New World‘ has a lot going for it. The film promises to bring a fresh perspective to the Captain America series, focusing on Sam Wilson’s challenges as he steps into the iconic role.
