I love how Cap is just relentless here. No circling, no measuring up his opponent, he just attacks again and again. And that’s exactly what’s needed to fight someone like the Winter Soldier.
@@contentcorsair Yeah bit of a nitpick but that grab and throw is a pet peeve of mine. Everything else Bucky does int the movie is all about efficiency, then they still resort to that cliche.
Restraint in dialogue is one of the hardest things to write imo. As a writer you naturally want a character to not be mostly mute, cus it's hard to develop them and learn about them, it's a self imposed limiting archetype imo. Very difficult to effectively write, act, and direct. Reminds me of Drive with Ryan Reynolds. Similar in that the character almost never speaks and when he does he's extremely purposefully brief. You don't see stuff like that often.
Rarely have we seen Natasha genuinely fearful of something or someone, she manages to keep her head cool, this shows how ruthless the Winter Solider was
Exactly one of the things that I think really gives the audience a reason to gear bucky is because of how our characters see him. Like if you see Natasha Romanoff scared of him then you know shit just got real!
Well remember she was shot by him before and had to fight him, she knows what he’s capable of. Also knowing he’s someone who has been around since the 50s and seems immortal, I’d be a little scared too, since black widow is only human after all.
The Winter Soldier is a PERFECT example of the trope of villains being absolute badasses while evil but becoming weaker when they are good guys. He has never kicked this much ass since this with the exception of when he got mind controlled AGAIN in Civil War!
Because he didn't have Bucky's full conscious holding him back, That's what the brainwashing and conditioning was for, that there wasn't any of Bucky, just a hardened trained. Murderous assassin Hydra could order to kill anyone and he would with staggering effectiveness, it was Bucky's soul and good character that held him back
The reason why he wasn't as scary once he became a "good guy" was precisely because we had no idea what he is. He was one big mystery and the only real thing we knew about him was that he was some sort of bad ass soldier and who could go to toe with, and had no fear of, Capt America. So once you know who he is, the mystery goes away. And secondly, he isn't a bad guy any more, so he isn't going to be as scary. Lets fact it, a scary mysterious bad guy is scarier than a good guy whose back story is know. This is true even if the good guy is stronger. Same thing happen with Loki, Loki was terrifying at the beginning, and once he became a good guy (or at least someone who has good tendencies even if he has some evil in him), he wasn't as terrifying anymore.
@@kraken5838 in my opinion no, it's this one, the winter soldier imposes a lot, he's very sinister, and that improves the fight, you feel a lot of tension throughout the fight, and the choreography is perfect, this fight is better
@@kraken5838 as much as I like nwh and the three spideys, this fight was better imo. There was a lot of tension and the fact that the Winter Soldier made cap go from trying to stop him to genuinely trying to survive was cool af. You could see Bucky didn’t hold back or pull his punches at all and it barely gave Steve any time to react. And that’s all topped off because of the history Bucky and Steve have. In nwh Tobey’s spiderman just stops Toms spiderman from killing Norman Osborn which was stupid and killed off the built up tension. Green goblin was a menace and should’ve been killed imo
Anyone else notice how Steve switches the shield at 1:30? Shields are traditionally used in a defensive posture in the non-dominant hand, but he realises he's going to have to use it as an offensive weapon, so he switches it to his right hand, planning to use it to damage Bucky's arm and then everything he does from there is to try to get outside Bucky's stance so he can use it. It's _ridiculously_ detailed choreography.
it is Seb's stunt double. If you look closely, the stunt double's hair is actually red-ish compared to Seb's actual hair, dark brown. And when TWS did the knife flip, right around here 0:45 , you'll see that it is in fact his double.
Out of curiosity, what are the other 2? I'm guessing it goes: 1. Green Goblin vs. Spiderman (apartment fight / Shield fight) 2. Shang Chi vs. Death Dealer 3. Cap vs. Winter Soldier
The time where Captain America became an action star from being a funny-costumed superhero. I will never stop thanking the Russo Brothers for this decision
The Russo Brothers and James Gunn really kickstarted the idea of making each marvel movie hero have their own unique film styles and themes, right when the MCU was floundering with IM 2-3 and Thor 2 which were much more generic and copycat with mixed reviews, I'd say they are the reason the MCU still manages to keep going without slowing down years later
The Winter Soldier's presence is just perfect. He's not a big evil mastermind, or alien titan, he's just a guy, seemingly like everyone else. His abilities don't come from a massive army or crazy superpowers, but great skill, a large arsenal of weapons and a touch of superhuman strength. He doesn't put on a big show, reveal his face or even talk, he gets straight to action. The mere sight of him is enough to let you know you're fucked.
@@Deathcardcodwaw Which is crazy considering how much Widow has survived in her lifetime being only human, atleast falcon has gadgets and super equipment. Widow and Clint(Hawkeye) have it the worst with only basic human weaponry and their martial and tactical skills.
You realize his abilities come from the same serum as Cap... right? Also, Black Widow is a badass trained assassin. It's silly to call her just a regular person. Hawkeye has borderline superhuman accuracy with any weapon he picks up. Still not fair to call him a regular person. This is no different than saying Stark is just a regular person without the suit. He was still the, like, 2nd or 3rd smartest person on earth, only behind Pim and maybe Peter Parker or Banner. Most of the Avengers are just regular people with really advanced tech. Iron Man has his suits. Cap and Bucky have the serum. Banner has Hulk, resulting from trying to copy the same serum given to Cap. Hawkeye and Widow have badass weaponry and the skill to back it up. Falcon has his flight pack. Starlord and Rocket just have alien tech. Gamora and Nebula have been augmented with alien tech. Hardly any of the heroes aren't just regular humanoids with really advanced tech. Even the ones that do have powers are a result of some tech being used on them that gave them powers. The ones that do have natural powers of their own are alien races, like Draxx, Mantis, Thor, etc. No suspension of disbelief required. They've spent dozens of movies telling us why the heroes are as strong as they are, and yall keep getting your heads caught up your butts hoping on the WiDoW bAd bandwagon channels like CinemaSins create. Now go cry on your blogs about how Thanos folded Hulk in the movie that establishes Thanos is stronger than Hulk.
I'm just here to remind everyone that the knife flip on 0:50 is 100% authentic, and the actor, Sebastian Stan did all this by himself without visual effects and stunt doubles.
Yeah, I've seen videos where he's flipping the knife, and he is very skillful. He said he practiced at home and in his car until it was perfect. That being said, the stunt double is used quite a lot in this scene. Unless you slow the video down, it may be difficult for most people to tell whether it's Sebastian or his stunt double. You have to look at the eyebrows and hairline to see the difference. The knife fight izzz truly amazing, though.
I love it when a fight scene tells a story, and Cap's technical progression from First Avenger to Winter Soldier is just fun and cool to follow. In the first movie he is all about boxing and wrestling, old school moves, and here it shows that he's been learning other martial arts and improving his skills, from the spinning jump kick to the flying knee and kip up. His enhanced biology and physique gives him the perfect timing, speed and force, so he can really use many of the moves that would be considered too flashy for real combat for a baseline human.
No wizards. No gods. No aliens. No multiverse. Just great story with intense action scenes, great choreography, amazing characters without cheesy lines and "wannabe funny" scenes. Still the best MCU movie. Fury's chase scene, the elevator scene, this scene, Steve and Bucky's final fight... The tone of this movie is just different. It's not a comedy, but a thriller-like masterpiece.
I thought secret invasion was gonna have a moment like this when Nick Fury explained why he wasn't getting the Avengers. Nope....it was just one huge disappointment. The series started off well and gave off some old-school mcu vibes, but it just got worse and worse.
@@omegarugal9283I mean sure but 1 he pointed a gun at Steve twice and 2 the only thing that stopped him from shooting him twice were outside sources and not Steve himself.
Winter Soldier was the scariest MCU villain purely because of how relentless he is. He’s not the most powerful, but it’s like fighting a killing machine. He just never stops coming at you no matter what you do. No breaks, no dialogue, just violence.
The fact that Natasha, the Black Widow, the world's greatest spy and former assassin, was terrified of the Winter Soldier is enough to tell how much of a threat he is.
Many comments about the knife flip (deservedly so!). What i'd like to add is how much I appreciate they didn't use slow motion for it 🙏 This scene demanded the audiences attention and seeing everything play out in what at least seemed like real-time is an excellent approach
Anyone else wanted to see more of this Ruthless Bucky? Because even if he is good now and trying to do better, he still would have the same kind of combat skills, aka the deadly once
He still does but I think what's making him weaker is that he's holding himself back. He's not trying to kill anyone anymore. Like with his fight with John he probably could have won if all he was trying to do was kill him and take the shield.
that's always was really bothered me he is so good with hand to hand combat, i thought in wakanda he will free his mind but as soon as the fights starts he snaps into the winter soldier that would've made him far more dangerous
After watching this, I understand why it seems like Bucky is nerfed. Looks like Winter Soldier focuses on guns, knives, and killing blows with his metal arm. When we see Bucky fighting, hes focusing on hand to hand combat. That, coupled together with Bucky holding back to prevent killing anyone, it makes sense that Bucky is weaker then before. I think with some more martial arts training and getting used to non-lethal combat, he'll be as capable as Steve was.
So true, i think its cause the winter soldier is stronger than bucky (when its no kind games holding back, bucky is holding back, the winter soldier isnt)
@@Raydnt69 yeah bucky could use some martial arts to compliment his fight style since he was trained as an killer/assassin and not a complete face-to-face combatant like steve was
The way Black widow acted to getting shot was pretty believable. From impact to realization, it's these small details that go unnoticed that make a great movie.
so Cap struggles against winter soldier's metal arm punch, where spider-man easily stops his punch with one arm. then again spider-man struggles against Cap's strength. Little details huh?
It’s good but it absolutely is NOT one of the best😂 have you ever watched the raid 1 and 2? That will make you realise where this sits when it comes to hand 2 hand fight scenes
In order, I'd say Winter Soldier is the best in the MCU, followed closely by Iron Man, and then Avengers Infinity War. I would put Spiderman 2 above Iron Man if it was included in the MCU
This scene alone doesnt feel like a superhero movie, no fancy hero outfits, just two highly skilled fighters with an edge of their own brawling intensely with a sense of realism.
My take is a little different. The specific techniques they are doing, are still possible for humans, even if they involve highly skilled humans. But the way they did they fought with these techniques were super human. They were stronger, and faster ,better timing, etc. They fought within the same dimensions as a human, but further in these dimensions than what is humanly possible. It reminds me of Achille's from Helen of Troy, sure, the specific moves he makes were something a human can do, but he was a little too fast, his timing a little too perfect (or possibly blessed or lucky) than something a mere human could do.
Plenty of superhero movies focus on single combat. Batman has top physical conditioning but he has no super strength so most of his movies involve hand-to-hand fighting.
@@kyan3597 doesn't make much sense though. He moves the knife to the other hand, his now empty hand is blocked by shield but his knife hand is free to attack, and he instead attacks with his empty hand when he could've stabbed Steve. Why did he switch the knife if he wasn't going to use it?
Can we just point out this proves how powerful steve actually is, his fighting style completely changes, in most of his fights hes fighting to stop them, in this he was fighting for his life, and his style of hand to hand combat completely shifted from hero to genuinly trying to survive.
The winter soilder is by far the biggest challenger captain America faced in regular combat. and that says a lot about his skill. Every other villian, cap was able to bring them down with minimal effort. but winter soilder legitimately gave him a run for his money, besting him multiple times throughout the film and actually making him sweat. not a lot of super hero movies do that. they may have the hero lose once or maybe twice but they made cap lose maybe 4 or 5 times in the winter soilder. you know a villian is formidable if they can beat you multiple times in a row.
Little did Howard know that Hydra would crash his car, violently smash his face with a metal arm until he dies and then choke the life out of his his wife.....
Shang-Chi and Iron fist were pitiful compared to Winter Soldier in this scene,now this Guy Is Dangerous!! If the mouse 🐁 company would Drop off the map, Marvel could return to making Comic book based movies without a agenda for the who people or the NEA to brain Wash our children.
0:08 The way Natasha was gasping in terror actually shows us how threatening The Winter Soldier was at that time. I have never seen Nat being scared to death...!!
1:41 No matter how many times I watch it, this scene still gives me chills, I mean imagine that the guy that just tried to kill you was actually your best friend that you thought was dead!
@The Awakening Not. Not all Phase 4 went bad. WV, Loki and Falcon & Winter Soldier are the best Marvel series. And Wanda Vision is/was Disney's most watched series. You don't speak in the plural when there are good things☠️.
0:46 - 0:56 Bra I can’t get over this phenomenal Hand to Hand combat performance scene done here. The way WS throws his knife in the air for a millisecond to test CA’s reflexes was trying to pinpoint an opening through his defenses was amazing
Agreed. Sebastian does such good acting with his eyes too. His demeanor until Cap lays a punch and then the spin kick was relatively cool. After that he was angry lol.
The reason why everyone loves captain america : the winter soldier Is the how they made the movie the whole movie had a serious tone and had only few funny scenes it was really different from other mcu films
Yeah, not dark enough to be a DC movie lol but just right. I wish they did that with endgame. All the joking in endgame really spoiled it for me. I get that they’re trying to make the best of the characters who are going to die/end but they’re literally trying to bring back half the population and one mistake could completely destroy the plan. On the other hand, Thor: ragnarok and ant man and the wasp are two of my favorites (the wither soldier will always be number 1) and their biggest strength is the upbeat, funny vibe that the movies set. I think it just depends on the movie
@@DTCAllOver Yeah Thor Ragnarok is a great funny movie, just didn't fit Thor at all for me. Turned thor into some dumb surfer dude, the jokes just kept on coming non stop and serious moments didn't feel emotional or serious at all as a result. Example: Korg making a joke within 2 seconds of Asgard being destroyed, Thor and Loki's home of 1500 years. Just not the type of tone or feel I wanted from a Thor movie, I'd have liked something more like epic fantasy since it is inspired by Norse gods and the type, which I think the first film did a decent job of capturing at times, but dark world was literally too dark and boring.
That punch from Bucky after he let the knife drop to his other hand is underrated, he was able to out strategize Cap for a few seconds which is nearly impossible to do
And it was a meaty fucking punch too. Def must’ve rattled Cap for a moment. A testament to how strong his jaw is that he still managed to stay focused.
I always actually found that bit to be a little stupid personally, once he dropped the knife to his left hand he could've killed Cap right there had he attempted to use it, but instead he goes to punch him with his right hand, it doesn't make any sense
@@JorgeSilva-ny8du But the knife drop is literally used for an unexpected stab, and Cap had both arms on his shield, so it would've made more sense to follow through with the stab attempt, it's the best opportunity he gets in the entire fight
After watching more hand to hand fight scenes over the years, I found out that the reason this fight scene works so well is that they barely even hit each other. Both Steve and The Winter Soldier know that a well connected hit can result in a loss so they do everything in their power to block each other's attacks. They don't just mindlessly attack each other and pop back up in a repetitive exchange of hits
@@zephyrr108 I think they mean They’re not just going at each other to the point where they’re bloody and then getting back up and continuing to fight. They’re actually just blocking each other here. You do see both of them getting in some hits here and there but for the most point they’re blocking. It’s great hand to hand. Steve can’t fully disarm Bucky when he has the knife, Bucky can’t fully disarm Steve with the Shield.
@@sammiepittman3130 I mean... Bucky did disarm Steve when he had the shield (the first time) but you're right about everything else. Most fights either make it way too obvious that the actors are aiming for each other's weapons (instead of using weapons to hit the person) or just swinging wildly at the air around them, or neither even tries to block and almost every hit connects and yet both characters stay standing way longer than they should have because they have plot armour. In this fight, every hit looks like both fighters are genuinely trying to connect each blow and the other is forced to dodge, block or deflect. And sure, if a regular person tried to shank Captain America I imagine he has so much muscle mass that you genuinely couldn't do much damage even if he straight up let you do it. You'd be lucky for the blade to even go deep enough to hit an organ. But Bucky has enough force to put behind that blade that he can do real damage with it. A slash wound wouldn't have stopped Steve but ANY of the attempts to stab him would have instantly won Bucky the fight if they'd landed. Knowing that Bucky can hurt Steve and seeing him actually trying is why this fight is so tense. It sounds so basic and yet most movies fail at this.
The Sensation and enjoyment comes from the low frame rate. If it were filmed in a higher frame rate you’d be expecting much more perfection. Also, there’s an actual purpose for this fight compared to other not so serious fights
@@emmanuel4989 Winter soldier is the tale parents tell their kids He wasn't exactly the boogeyman. He was the one you sent to kill the fucking boogeyman
Winter Soldier was unique in the MCU. No shoehorned jokes or romances, not parallel timelines, no magic or aliens, just a very tightly paced, well written and self contained story, with top of the shelf choreography and action sequences. I doubt the MCU will ever be this good again.
It came out before "marvel movie" was a genre. Now they're all shoehorned into being 70% the same movie with different coats of paint. Winter Soldier is a straight up spy thriller and it's exceptional because of that.
i think it is when iron man vs cap and bucky. The tension, the story, the lines and the fight scene. i think this scene it's perfect. the fight is very personal to each character.
@@Messilover140 I love Daredevil and it's fight scenes, especially the one hallway ones. But i feel like sometimes their punches feels soft. Like in S2, The prison fight scene with Punisher, when he headbutted that person it looked like he didn't even hit him
Haven’t seen anyone mention 1:29, when Cap immediately recognizes a disadvantage and switches the shield to his other hand to even the odds. I think that’s the ONLY time in the MCU that we see him fight with the shield using his right hand.
I still think this is the best MCU movie, one of the main reasons being there’s not 50 different characters in it. This means there’s more room for things like character development, and a more linear plot. On top of that, you got these kickass amazingly choreographed fights (with this being no exception), a fantastic villain, and it has less of that dumb MCU humor (it’s fine from time to time, but sometimes, they just go too far with the humor). And I stand by this claim in 2024 :)
As the winter soldier he’s not allowed to think in these situations only focus on the fight so he is extremely dangerous, which is why when Steve said Bucky, his conscious came back a little for him to think but ultimately still try and finish the job
He is lol that’s what happens when your experimented tortured and face near death does plus he was brainwashed hardddd core u can say it’s a split personality
@@fulcrum097 Yeah keep in mind that he's still super soldier powered so if he "held back" the damage is still crazy. But Winter soldier is also super soldier so he can tank it.
@Justin Gary Bucky lost because, bucky was holding back. Winter soldier is not one who holds back. He got way more experience than John walker. Plus, winter soldier can overpower captain america when he is using 2 hands, while bucky is using only 1 hand. So he is stronger than John walker. You can not argue me that us agent is more powerful than cap!
genuinely the best fight of the MCU by a thousand country miles, the way he uses the knife, and then the sound effect of vibranium without any music is so epic
Chris Evans has some of THE BEST facial expressions in the MCU! He really sells this scene since we don’t get to see Sebastian’s face until the end! Definitely in the top 5 of all time Marvel movies!
For me, I started to suspect that it was Bucky when they goggles came off. Keep in mind, I only watched this in 2020 and I hadn’t seen the credits or watched any other stuff so I didn’t know Bucky was alive before watching.
You can make the case for a lot of scenes in the MCU, it is a brilliant universe. Thor’s entrance in Infinity War could definitely be in the conversation too.
I don't like most of the newer marvel films because it's just fucking toooooo much you don't need a ten times stronger and bigger villain with unrealistic abilities in every movie. They kept the superpowers on a lower level in this movie which made it one of the best
I still believe this fight is the best choreographed fight in the whole mcu. Everyone’s saying the same thing, but man I could just watch this fight, and even this whole movie, over and over!
Fear is a powerful writing tool when you want something to look and feel like a life and death situation. Black Widow's fear of Winter Soldier, combined with the timing of the music, makes this scene terrifying. To back up that point, it's why the Jurassic World movies were so silly, because the acting didn't show genuine fear or danger.
@@omegarugal9283 The only shitty part about TFATWS were the flagsmashers and the rushed finale. Basically you're saying you only like the WS and not Bucky.
@@RicJiang through the window you mean?! He's a super soldier and Winter Soldier serum was crazy too. On top of Bucky having a metal arm. Imagine if he had that arm made of Adamantium, Uru, Dargonite or even Vibranium (which Infinity War does ofcourse but good guy Bucky isn't Winter Soldier with the mind control, straight up massacre man), I'm sure that's the case in some continuities of the comics. I'm more of a DC comic guy, never had access to Marvel except Raimis Spiderman only,
A year late, but it was totally impressive. We’re also talking about the guy who was a sniper in WW2, with a Sergeant rank, got a serum that enhanced the skilled marksmanship he already had, THEN you got the added years of being trained as an assassin. I always think about the Nick Fury scene cause unless he had a thermal scope (which the building was brick I believe?) he shot Nick Fury accurately while he was walking towards Steve, unable to actually see him. He just used Steve’s body language to gauge where Fury was at.
@@grimmywizard Posted a year ago but I'm just now seeing this - I wanted to point out that Adamantium and Vibranium are the same element, technically. They don't exist in the same universes, and occupy the same spot in the periodic table. They're slightly different in capability, I believe, and that's more of a universe-specific thing, but scientifically they're the same element.
It's sad that we will never be able to see this badass Bucky.......it would have been awesome if they showed just a little bit of this winter soldier in the falcon and winter soldier
I love the score. Plus the choreography and Sebastian Stan's performance. Every time The Winter Soldier is on screen, you can feel the dread and what a threat he poses. Awesome.
There are three impotant things to know about me for this exerise. The first is I am a big Marvel Cinematic Universe fan, no matter wehat my friend Julia
@@juliusjean-baptiste924not every character was making jokes everywhere all the time, when we had stronger characters that are female and not strong female characters, when writing and creating movies was passion and not an attempt to squeeze money from the audience. those days are behind now
@@MorbiusBlueBalls Agreed. The creatives that were passionate about comics and the source material. Who they're hiring now are not really that passionate from a director standpoint and some of the writers on these projects have been terrible.
Hard to believe Winter Soldier is even made by the same company as the last... idk 5 or 6 mcu films? I stopped with Ant Man 3 and Thor Love and Thunder and Dr Strange 2, all terrible.
It makes sense if you think about it. In their evil phase they aren't hindered by compassion and empathy. They see a target, a mission. Changing from that to wanting to make a good impression in people's eyes, you probably will have to resort to pulling your punches.
@@zaanredelinghuys191 yea tru but in falcon and the winter soilder its like bucky lost all his fighting skills he literally lost to inexperienced power broker’s whatever there called like it’s kinda embarrassing when you have 90 years of experience and you get shit on like that. like i get that he couldn’t control his own mind but still you should still be able to fight especially when you go toe to toe with captain America
In the future maybe Bucky gets a family and the wife was just a brainwashed assassin that follows order without any moral codes ( that’s how bad they’ve messed her) But Bucky doesn’t know that, her wife was literally programmed to love him. Turns out she was also in the winter soldier programme but at a very young age and was easily manipulated. They have kids and, she one day gets a new order to kill the kids. During dinner she gets up, takes a gun and shot one kid, while the other still just a toddler. Bucky out of shock, tries to protect the toddler. But his now brainwashed wife is fighting him to kill the toddler. They have 3 minute intense fighting , Bucky starts to get tired and he’s crying while fighting the wife. So he can’t kill the wife and the wife is really gaining more agility. She she kills the toddler, Bucky freezes while the wife escapes the house to the streets. And the winter soldier in him gets fully activated and goes after her, He is just going for the kill. He ends up tracking her in the town’s church and they fight in the middle of the service. POV: the town’s folk have no clue because they are the most happiest couple in the town and now they are trying to murder each other. Bucky, goes full ham with hand to hand combat. He ends up snapping her knee, dislocating her shoulder, and snapping her jaw. And the town folks are just in shock as the police arrive, and he snaps her neck. Police try to shoot him but, he kills ALL 8 of them(John wick style). And as more are closing in. He ran back into his house, takes a bible, prays while he cries with his rage. Take the two dead kids, goes down the river, place rocks on their heads and prays, before taking his own life. So that’s one way of bringing back the true winter soldier
@@Mcdonaldsreal then atleast change the end title. You've to admit they nerfed him to bits and didn't even care to change his title in the end credits. He's no more a winter soldier. Alright don't kill but don't get beaten up lmao while Sam has easy against flagsmashers Bucky struggled. That was stupid af. Steve also doesn't kill but he never gets nerfed to show that
As a fan of this winter soldier like you, we are doomed to disappointment. If only the storyline makes this guy back and we all know we can only see this winter soldier slaugter his foe with this badass way during hydra era. Judging from this winter soldier fighting with the strongest cap Steve Rogers, I can say that the show should be called Falcon and Bucky, due to the fact this winter soldier seems atleast 3~4 times more powerful than current Bucky.
But the thing was even worse. This WAS NOT the winter soldier you and I wanted to see in the final episode. The winter soldier is trying to kill Steve, who is the strongest and fastest and most skillful super soldier in the MCU here. And see how bad Steve get beaten. If those "regular civilians with less strengh enhanced serum" were the target of this winter soldier here, he would made those serum people look like idiots with their hand to hand combat skill completely outmatched by winter soldier in first 20 second, eventually all of them would became horrible corpse and winter solder only using 40% of his effort this video. Some of those serum people might got skull smashed like watermalon by WS metal arm, some of them might be killed like a ordinary person die fighting against a MMA fighter. And this is the realistic situation what you wanted to see if this winter soldier appear in last episode.
I love the focus on quick reflexes and how they emphazise on that in this fight. Goes to show that every Marvel movie has a different flavor, while still being awesome. As super soldiers, fighting techniques are equally matched, so it's all about who misses and who strikes, all in a speedy combat. Both fighting at full speed, and still struggling to land a punch. Great choreography.
The Winter Soldier is one of the best MCU movies out there; it can actually stand alone outside of the other movies. And the fight sequences are raw, exciting, and well choreographed. The whole sequence, which begins with the attack on the freeway leading right up to this fight between Cap and the WS is great. Though labeled as a super hero movie, this is actually a well done action/spy/espionage movie, on par with a good Mission Impossible or James Bond movie.
I remember hearing before that some people didn’t like the shaky camera or the constant cutting to different angles. But honesty it sets the pace so well and gives such an immersive feel. You can see that it’s a fast paced fight because of it and when cap threw Bucky near the end, all the cameras started to calm down
Also it's not like the Bourne movies where you can't tell what's going on cause of the shaky cam, you can tell what's happening in the scene. Also gives you a bit of an insight into Cap's headspace of how freaked out by this guy he is
@@cabnbeeschurgrNah, Bourne movies' timing for the quick cut editing is perfect, it doesn't try to hide any stunt work and it works. Another reason why the shaky cam technique works in the Bourne trilogy is that the camera is used in conjunction with other techniques such as editing, sound design, and choreography. These techniques work together to create a cohesive and immersive experience, adding to the tension and intensity of the action scenes. I've seen the Bourne movie many times and it's definitely the better use of shaky cam alongside with The Winter Soldier here If you want to see a very poor editing style in an action movie, try watch Taken 3 or Colombiana, now that's a movie where you absolutely cannot tell what the hell is going on because the actors are clearly not invested with the action scenes that they're working on so the quick cut editing was used to hide poor stunt work
Most movies just use shaky cam and quick cutting to hide sub-par choreography. They fail to realize that these are tools, not blueprints to film scenes. But in this movie they clearly had perfect choreography, and THEN they decided to add these effects in, to portray how intense and confused Nat and Cap are during the fight. So yeah this movie and the Bourne movies kind of understood that while something like Taken does not.
There’s something so ominously cool about the Winter Soldier getting a hold of Cap’s shield. I don’t think there’s ever been another scene where someone gets the better of Cap and manages to pry the shield from his very hands.
I'd like to think that it's a callback to an earlier scene of the movie, when he fought batroc. In which he states that he thought captain america was more than just a shield.

That's more like Bucky. Cap almost always uses his shield to protect himself here
@@nicolasrey8773 except for the time when Bucky got it the cap used his arms to block
He did that with Thanos as well. Goes to show no matter how tough ur enemy is, just confidence is enough to take em down.
If you watch closely. Every time Bucky swings with his metal arm Cap counters and lands a successful blow. Bucky’s metal arm is powerful but slow
@@batdanneal9121 bc Spider-Man has superhuman strength
Unlike other villains , Bucky doesnt throw you around , giving you speeches about his schemes , he actually tries to kill you
That's because he's not the villain, he's just a weapon.

He did have Cap by the throat, and chose to throw him away rather than squeeze or slice him then and there

Restraint in dialogue is one of the hardest things to write imo. As a writer you naturally want a character to not be mostly mute, cus it's hard to develop them and learn about them, it's a self imposed limiting archetype imo. Very difficult to effectively write, act, and direct.

the most memorable part of this movie indeed
Fr
@Saleem Frazer when did arrow flip a knife?
I randomly thought of the knife flip and came back to watch this scene!
@@thisisntmyceiling lmao exact same reason I’m here
Rarely have we seen Natasha genuinely fearful of something or someone, she manages to keep her head cool, this shows how ruthless the Winter Solider was
Exactly one of the things that I think really gives the audience a reason to gear bucky is because of how our characters see him. Like if you see Natasha Romanoff scared of him then you know shit just got real!
Yes. He was scared of the Winter soldier. But not Bucky
How good was the writing back then!
Well remember she was shot by him before and had to fight him, she knows what he’s capable of. Also knowing he’s someone who has been around since the 50s and seems immortal, I’d be a little scared too, since black widow is only human after all.
ruclips.net/video/U7jdYYbAb00/видео.html.
The Winter Soldier is a PERFECT example of the trope of villains being absolute badasses while evil but becoming weaker when they are good guys. He has never kicked this much ass since this with the exception of when he got mind controlled AGAIN in Civil War!
Because he didn't have Bucky's full conscious holding him back, That's what the brainwashing and conditioning was for, that there wasn't any of Bucky, just a hardened trained. Murderous assassin Hydra could order to kill anyone and he would with staggering effectiveness, it was Bucky's soul and good character that held him back
It’s because Bucky has morals and holds back. The winter soldier does not.
@@BrodyReyno Spiderman holds back too but he isn't lame when he does it.
If Spider-Man became evil, he wouldn't hold back, and the team would very much struggle to deal with him.
The reason why he wasn't as scary once he became a "good guy" was precisely because we had no idea what he is. He was one big mystery and the only real thing we knew about him was that he was some sort of bad ass soldier and who could go to toe with, and had no fear of, Capt America. So once you know who he is, the mystery goes away. And secondly, he isn't a bad guy any more, so he isn't going to be as scary. Lets fact it, a scary mysterious bad guy is scarier than a good guy whose back story is know. This is true even if the good guy is stronger. Same thing happen with Loki, Loki was terrifying at the beginning, and once he became a good guy (or at least someone who has good tendencies even if he has some evil in him), he wasn't as terrifying anymore.
Easily the best hand-to-hand combat scene in the MCU
In movies yes, but overall MCU, in my opinion Daredevil has the best hand to hand to combat scenes.
Just wait for Shang chi then
@@hrproductions7180 Yup, I have high hopes for that one.
Ok
In all of live action superhero film imo
This was peak MCU. Greatest MCU fight ever. Music, choreography, editing, perfection.
Hands down the best fight scene!
imo the fight in nwh where goblin beat spiderman's ass is better
@@kraken5838 in my opinion no, it's this one, the winter soldier imposes a lot, he's very sinister, and that improves the fight, you feel a lot of tension throughout the fight, and the choreography is perfect, this fight is better
@@eliasrp2986 sure thats your opinion
@@kraken5838 as much as I like nwh and the three spideys, this fight was better imo. There was a lot of tension and the fact that the Winter Soldier made cap go from trying to stop him to genuinely trying to survive was cool af. You could see Bucky didn’t hold back or pull his punches at all and it barely gave Steve any time to react. And that’s all topped off because of the history Bucky and Steve have. In nwh Tobey’s spiderman just stops Toms spiderman from killing Norman Osborn which was stupid and killed off the built up tension. Green goblin was a menace and should’ve been killed imo
Bucky didn't speak even a single word all these scenes but was scary as hell
But WHO THE HELL IS BUCKY?
1:51..."Someone" says, "Who the hell is Bucky". But I guess you didn't catch that.
he is the fricking "Wintersoldier" man. Even Natasha was a little bit scared of him, and she defeated Taskmaster (eventually in Black Widow).
He spoke some foreign language to order the soldiers on the freeway in the buildup to this seen but that’s besides the point
@@slayz7137 he spoke Russian
10 years ago today I saw this in theaters. Easily remains one of my favorite movies
Anyone else notice how Steve switches the shield at 1:30? Shields are traditionally used in a defensive posture in the non-dominant hand, but he realises he's going to have to use it as an offensive weapon, so he switches it to his right hand, planning to use it to damage Bucky's arm and then everything he does from there is to try to get outside Bucky's stance so he can use it. It's _ridiculously_ detailed choreography.
Yessssss
Yeah but he also throws it at people as an offensive weapon all the time.
good eye! didnt realize that
Honestly I’ve thought that’s just a leftover cut clip of Chris fumbling the shield lol
Because most people think shields are exclusively for defense... It can be used both ways really.
The fact that Sebastian Stan is actually doing that knife flip never ceases to amaze me.
Honestly my fav 2 seconds in the whole franchise
Well actually it was his stunt double, idk why they didn't use his knife flip, he was very good with it
I don’t think it was Seb if you stop at 1:05 it seems to be the action actor idk
it is Seb's stunt double. If you look closely, the stunt double's hair is actually red-ish compared to Seb's actual hair, dark brown. And when TWS did the knife flip, right around here 0:45 , you'll see that it is in fact his double.
My bad. Looks like I was wrong. I've seen Seb do it so many times bts and just assumed.
Still the top 3 action scenes from MCU.
No elaborate CGI and bullshit. Just excellent fight choreography.
No shitty jokes
@@mrrupam007 Absolutely. This is the worst part of MCU movies unfortunately...
I actually don't mind the cgi but man it dwindled hard over the years
Out of curiosity, what are the other 2?
I'm guessing it goes:
1. Green Goblin vs. Spiderman (apartment fight / Shield fight)
2. Shang Chi vs. Death Dealer
3. Cap vs. Winter Soldier
The fight scenes in Daredevil are better.
A decade later and Captain America: The Winter Soldier is STILL cooked well done. The first time the MCU really stepped up its game post-Avengers.
The time where Captain America became an action star from being a funny-costumed superhero. I will never stop thanking the Russo Brothers for this decision
And what about composer henry jackman
The Russo Brothers and James Gunn really kickstarted the idea of making each marvel movie hero have their own unique film styles and themes, right when the MCU was floundering with IM 2-3 and Thor 2 which were much more generic and copycat with mixed reviews, I'd say they are the reason the MCU still manages to keep going without slowing down years later
Iron man 2 is composed by john debney birth in 1956
Iron man 3 and thor 2 are composed by brian tyler birth in 1972
And you talk about two movies of mcu of 2014
The Winter Soldier's presence is just perfect. He's not a big evil mastermind, or alien titan, he's just a guy, seemingly like everyone else. His abilities don't come from a massive army or crazy superpowers, but great skill, a large arsenal of weapons and a touch of superhuman strength. He doesn't put on a big show, reveal his face or even talk, he gets straight to action. The mere sight of him is enough to let you know you're fucked.
He is definitely a super soldier like cap. The only ones that aren't is widow and the falcon
@@Deathcardcodwaw Which is crazy considering how much Widow has survived in her lifetime being only human, atleast falcon has gadgets and super equipment. Widow and Clint(Hawkeye) have it the worst with only basic human weaponry and their martial and tactical skills.
You realize his abilities come from the same serum as Cap... right?
Also, Black Widow is a badass trained assassin. It's silly to call her just a regular person.
Hawkeye has borderline superhuman accuracy with any weapon he picks up. Still not fair to call him a regular person. This is no different than saying Stark is just a regular person without the suit. He was still the, like, 2nd or 3rd smartest person on earth, only behind Pim and maybe Peter Parker or Banner. Most of the Avengers are just regular people with really advanced tech.
Iron Man has his suits.
Cap and Bucky have the serum.
Banner has Hulk, resulting from trying to copy the same serum given to Cap.
Hawkeye and Widow have badass weaponry and the skill to back it up.
Falcon has his flight pack.
Starlord and Rocket just have alien tech.
Gamora and Nebula have been augmented with alien tech.
Hardly any of the heroes aren't just regular humanoids with really advanced tech. Even the ones that do have powers are a result of some tech being used on them that gave them powers. The ones that do have natural powers of their own are alien races, like Draxx, Mantis, Thor, etc.
No suspension of disbelief required. They've spent dozens of movies telling us why the heroes are as strong as they are, and yall keep getting your heads caught up your butts hoping on the WiDoW bAd bandwagon channels like CinemaSins create. Now go cry on your blogs about how Thanos folded Hulk in the movie that establishes Thanos is stronger than Hulk.
@@Lolbama2012 I mentioned the superhuman strength and I said he was "seemingly" just a guy. There's still no denying how skilled he is.
@@Lolbama2012 No way Peter Parker is smarter than Iron Man lmao. Tony could kick Peter's ass in any sort of intellectual battle any day.
I'm just here to remind everyone that the knife flip on 0:50 is 100% authentic, and the actor, Sebastian Stan did all this by himself without visual effects and stunt doubles.
Thats insane
ruclips.net/video/eidATVU0Emo/видео.html
I know sebastian can do that but when you see this closely 0:51 it’s stunt double doing it
H3Y0o
Oh, so *_that's_* (part of) why it looks so good!
Yeah, I've seen videos where he's flipping the knife, and he is very skillful. He said he practiced at home and in his car until it was perfect.
That being said, the stunt double is used quite a lot in this scene. Unless you slow the video down, it may be difficult for most people to tell whether it's Sebastian or his stunt double. You have to look at the eyebrows and hairline to see the difference.
The knife fight izzz truly amazing, though.
I love it when a fight scene tells a story, and Cap's technical progression from First Avenger to Winter Soldier is just fun and cool to follow. In the first movie he is all about boxing and wrestling, old school moves, and here it shows that he's been learning other martial arts and improving his skills, from the spinning jump kick to the flying knee and kip up. His enhanced biology and physique gives him the perfect timing, speed and force, so he can really use many of the moves that would be considered too flashy for real combat for a baseline human.
love this comment
No wizards. No gods. No aliens. No multiverse. Just great story with intense action scenes, great choreography, amazing characters without cheesy lines and "wannabe funny" scenes.
Still the best MCU movie.
Fury's chase scene, the elevator scene, this scene, Steve and Bucky's final fight... The tone of this movie is just different. It's not a comedy, but a thriller-like masterpiece.
I thought secret invasion was gonna have a moment like this when Nick Fury explained why he wasn't getting the Avengers. Nope....it was just one huge disappointment. The series started off well and gave off some old-school mcu vibes, but it just got worse and worse.
And not forgetting Cap’s takedown of a Quinjet, after the pilot tells Cap to “Stand down!” over the PA/tannoy speaker.

Many comments about the knife flip (deservedly so!).
What i'd like to add is how much I appreciate they didn't use slow motion for it 🙏
This scene demanded the audiences attention and seeing everything play out in what at least seemed like real-time is an excellent approach
Anyone else wanted to see more of this Ruthless Bucky? Because even if he is good now and trying to do better, he still would have the same kind of combat skills, aka the deadly once
He still does but I think what's making him weaker is that he's holding himself back. He's not trying to kill anyone anymore. Like with his fight with John he probably could have won if all he was trying to do was kill him and take the shield.
that's always was really bothered me
he is so good with hand to hand combat, i thought in wakanda he will free his mind but as soon as the fights starts he snaps into the winter soldier
that would've made him far more dangerous
Yea he sucked in the show.

After watching this, I understand why it seems like Bucky is nerfed.
Looks like Winter Soldier focuses on guns, knives, and killing blows with his metal arm.
When we see Bucky fighting, hes focusing on hand to hand combat.
That, coupled together with Bucky holding back to prevent killing anyone, it makes sense that Bucky is weaker then before.
I think with some more martial arts training and getting used to non-lethal combat, he'll be as capable as Steve was.
So true, i think its cause the winter soldier is stronger than bucky (when its no kind games holding back, bucky is holding back, the winter soldier isnt)
@@Raydnt69 yeah bucky could use some martial arts to compliment his fight style since he was trained as an killer/assassin and not a complete face-to-face combatant like steve was

This scene alone doesnt feel like a superhero movie, no fancy hero outfits, just two highly skilled fighters with an edge of their own brawling intensely with a sense of realism.
My take is a little different. The specific techniques they are doing, are still possible for humans, even if they involve highly skilled humans. But the way they did they fought with these techniques were super human. They were stronger, and faster ,better timing, etc. They fought within the same dimensions as a human, but further in these dimensions than what is humanly possible. It reminds me of Achille's from Helen of Troy, sure, the specific moves he makes were something a human can do, but he was a little too fast, his timing a little too perfect (or possibly blessed or lucky) than something a mere human could do.
@@TangomanX2008good comment
Plenty of superhero movies focus on single combat. Batman has top physical conditioning but he has no super strength so most of his movies involve hand-to-hand fighting.

@@Fucisko Because the angle was bad and his opponent would have gone to block the knife. So he surprised him with a punch. Which worked.
Can we just point out this proves how powerful steve actually is, his fighting style completely changes, in most of his fights hes fighting to stop them, in this he was fighting for his life, and his style of hand to hand combat completely shifted from hero to genuinly trying to survive.
The winter soilder is by far the biggest challenger captain America faced in regular combat. and that says a lot about his skill. Every other villian, cap was able to bring them down with minimal effort. but winter soilder legitimately gave him a run for his money, besting him multiple times throughout the film and actually making him sweat. not a lot of super hero movies do that. they may have the hero lose once or maybe twice but they made cap lose maybe 4 or 5 times in the winter soilder. you know a villian is formidable if they can beat you multiple times in a row.

The reason why everyone loves captain america : the winter soldier
Is the how they made the movie the whole movie had a serious tone and had only few funny scenes it was really different from other mcu films
Glad MCU returned to that territory
The movies that are like this are in people's Top 5. I wish Iron Man 3 and Thor Ragnarok had this tone
Yeah, not dark enough to be a DC movie lol but just right. I wish they did that with endgame. All the joking in endgame really spoiled it for me. I get that they’re trying to make the best of the characters who are going to die/end but they’re literally trying to bring back half the population and one mistake could completely destroy the plan.
On the other hand, Thor: ragnarok and ant man and the wasp are two of my favorites (the wither soldier will always be number 1) and their biggest strength is the upbeat, funny vibe that the movies set. I think it just depends on the movie
@@china_sickness7005 all were joking after that time jump. Those times were not that serious.
@@DTCAllOver Yeah Thor Ragnarok is a great funny movie, just didn't fit Thor at all for me. Turned thor into some dumb surfer dude, the jokes just kept on coming non stop and serious moments didn't feel emotional or serious at all as a result. Example: Korg making a joke within 2 seconds of Asgard being destroyed, Thor and Loki's home of 1500 years. Just not the type of tone or feel I wanted from a Thor movie, I'd have liked something more like epic fantasy since it is inspired by Norse gods and the type, which I think the first film did a decent job of capturing at times, but dark world was literally too dark and boring.
10 years later and that knife flip is still so sweet..!
That punch from Bucky after he let the knife drop to his other hand is underrated, he was able to out strategize Cap for a few seconds which is nearly impossible to do
And it was a meaty fucking punch too. Def must’ve rattled Cap for a moment.
A testament to how strong his jaw is that he still managed to stay focused.
I always actually found that bit to be a little stupid personally, once he dropped the knife to his left hand he could've killed Cap right there had he attempted to use it, but instead he goes to punch him with his right hand, it doesn't make any sense

After watching more hand to hand fight scenes over the years, I found out that the reason this fight scene works so well is that they barely even hit each other. Both Steve and The Winter Soldier know that a well connected hit can result in a loss so they do everything in their power to block each other's attacks. They don't just mindlessly attack each other and pop back up in a repetitive exchange of hits
sus mogus
Barely hit each other?
@@zephyrr108 I think they mean They’re not just going at each other to the point where they’re bloody and then getting back up and continuing to fight. They’re actually just blocking each other here. You do see both of them getting in some hits here and there but for the most point they’re blocking. It’s great hand to hand. Steve can’t fully disarm Bucky when he has the knife, Bucky can’t fully disarm Steve with the Shield.
@@sammiepittman3130 I mean... Bucky did disarm Steve when he had the shield (the first time) but you're right about everything else. Most fights either make it way too obvious that the actors are aiming for each other's weapons (instead of using weapons to hit the person) or just swinging wildly at the air around them, or neither even tries to block and almost every hit connects and yet both characters stay standing way longer than they should have because they have plot armour. In this fight, every hit looks like both fighters are genuinely trying to connect each blow and the other is forced to dodge, block or deflect.
And sure, if a regular person tried to shank Captain America I imagine he has so much muscle mass that you genuinely couldn't do much damage even if he straight up let you do it. You'd be lucky for the blade to even go deep enough to hit an organ. But Bucky has enough force to put behind that blade that he can do real damage with it. A slash wound wouldn't have stopped Steve but ANY of the attempts to stab him would have instantly won Bucky the fight if they'd landed. Knowing that Bucky can hurt Steve and seeing him actually trying is why this fight is so tense. It sounds so basic and yet most movies fail at this.
The Sensation and enjoyment comes from the low frame rate. If it were filmed in a higher frame rate you’d be expecting much more perfection. Also, there’s an actual purpose for this fight compared to other not so serious fights
Even after 7 years Winter Soldier still scared the fuck out of me with his metal arm, knife flipping, and chill music.
they should make a winter soldier movie from his past exploits as an evil guy for hydra.
Still to this day the MCU have not come close to creating an antagonist as intimidating as the winter soldier.
@Shadow Studios Potentially. He looks badass that's for sure.

Winter Soldier was unique in the MCU. No shoehorned jokes or romances, not parallel timelines, no magic or aliens, just a very tightly paced, well written and self contained story, with top of the shelf choreography and action sequences.
I doubt the MCU will ever be this good again.
even back when it came out, I knew this was where the MCU peaked
Winter Soldier is a reflection of both what makes a good soldier and most of the 21st century being a manipulation of a shadowy group
It came out before "marvel movie" was a genre. Now they're all shoehorned into being 70% the same movie with different coats of paint. Winter Soldier is a straight up spy thriller and it's exceptional because of that.
This movie and Civil War are peak MCU in my opinion. Not even Endgame tops them.
@@lunaderacine Infinity War is peak MCU though the movies that came before it were extraordinary as well
The music, the choreography, the acting! Literally the best fight scene in the MCU no competition.

*Netflix Daredevil.*
i think it is when iron man vs cap and bucky. The tension, the story, the lines and the fight scene. i think this scene it's perfect. the fight is very personal to each character.
@@Messilover140 I love Daredevil and it's fight scenes, especially the one hallway ones. But i feel like sometimes their punches feels soft. Like in S2, The prison fight scene with Punisher, when he headbutted that person it looked like he didn't even hit him
Haven’t seen anyone mention 1:29, when Cap immediately recognizes a disadvantage and switches the shield to his other hand to even the odds.
I think that’s the ONLY time in the MCU that we see him fight with the shield using his right hand.

Wow you cant even shut up @@ChunkyMilk360
I still think this is the best MCU movie, one of the main reasons being there’s not 50 different characters in it. This means there’s more room for things like character development, and a more linear plot. On top of that, you got these kickass amazingly choreographed fights (with this being no exception), a fantastic villain, and it has less of that dumb MCU humor (it’s fine from time to time, but sometimes, they just go too far with the humor).
And I stand by this claim in 2024 :)
Especially on Thor Ragnorok, that movie genuinely wasn’t that enjoyable because it was too funny for my liking.
@@christianinfinity8206 “I don’t like that movie, it was too funny”
Civil War?
@@jaydag24 definitely one of the best, but *personally* I like this one more because it’s less of a mashup, not as messy.
@@Howlingburd19 Fair. I always have said WS is probably the best standalone MCU film.
I really love this. The scoring, the detail of the fight, crazy Bucky, knife party, the big punch. It's just perfect all the way.
Sebastian Stan / Bucky Barnes Winter Soldier
Adam Sandler's next Netfix original movie is "Hustel," a basketball comedy that pairs the actor with acclaimed "We the Animals" helmer Jeremiah Zagar.
He's like an entirely different person as the Winter Soldier
As the winter soldier he’s not allowed to think in these situations only focus on the fight so he is extremely dangerous, which is why when Steve said Bucky, his conscious came back a little for him to think but ultimately still try and finish the job
He is lol that’s what happens when your experimented tortured and face near death does plus he was brainwashed hardddd core u can say it’s a split personality
Now he is a white wolf 👍
No shit....
One of THE best MCU films! Amazing fight choreography ❤
That fist, kick and knee combo by cap 0:54 was all the way ruthless
They made fucking dents in the cars and everything
@@fulcrum097 Yeah keep in mind that he's still super soldier powered so if he "held back" the damage is still crazy. But Winter soldier is also super soldier so he can tank it.

Walker would have been screwed if he fought this bucky
But I don't want Walker to die. And I think it's safe to assume that he's as strong as Bucky after taking the serum.
That show was the reason why i stopped at endgame
@Justin Gary Bucky lost because, bucky was holding back. Winter soldier is not one who holds back. He got way more experience than John walker. Plus, winter soldier can overpower captain america when he is using 2 hands, while bucky is using only 1 hand. So he is stronger than John walker. You can not argue me that us agent is more powerful than cap!
No shit. Bucky in Fal&WS isn't a killer machine anymore.
@@iamgroot2810 but not skilled as Winter Soldier
genuinely the best fight of the MCU by a thousand country miles, the way he uses the knife, and then the sound effect of vibranium without any music is so epic
Chris Evans has some of THE BEST facial expressions in the MCU! He really sells this scene since we don’t get to see Sebastian’s face until the end! Definitely in the top 5 of all time Marvel movies!
For me, I started to suspect that it was Bucky when they goggles came off. Keep in mind, I only watched this in 2020 and I hadn’t seen the credits or watched any other stuff so I didn’t know Bucky was alive before watching.

"Natasha with long hair" lol
I don't like most of the newer marvel films because it's just fucking toooooo much you don't need a ten times stronger and bigger villain with unrealistic abilities in every movie. They kept the superpowers on a lower level in this movie which made it one of the best
@@thatguy597 he ain't lying 😳
0:51 That knife flip tho😍
I still believe this fight is the best choreographed fight in the whole mcu. Everyone’s saying the same thing, but man I could just watch this fight, and even this whole movie, over and over!
Fear is a powerful writing tool when you want something to look and feel like a life and death situation. Black Widow's fear of Winter Soldier, combined with the timing of the music, makes this scene terrifying. To back up that point, it's why the Jurassic World movies were so silly, because the acting didn't show genuine fear or danger.
You know shit’s gotten real when Black Widow is running for dear life
True
He shot her to kill somebody else previously. you'd run too. She was no match for him.

0:05 I just love how the Winter Soldier just straight up shot her while she's moving. That amount of accuracy is impressive
I just realized tha he shot her instead of the window 😂
@@RicJiang through the window you mean?! He's a super soldier and Winter Soldier serum was crazy too. On top of Bucky having a metal arm. Imagine if he had that arm made of Adamantium, Uru, Dargonite or even Vibranium (which Infinity War does ofcourse but good guy Bucky isn't Winter Soldier with the mind control, straight up massacre man), I'm sure that's the case in some continuities of the comics. I'm more of a DC comic guy, never had access to Marvel except Raimis Spiderman only,
A year late, but it was totally impressive. We’re also talking about the guy who was a sniper in WW2, with a Sergeant rank, got a serum that enhanced the skilled marksmanship he already had, THEN you got the added years of being trained as an assassin.
I always think about the Nick Fury scene cause unless he had a thermal scope (which the building was brick I believe?) he shot Nick Fury accurately while he was walking towards Steve, unable to actually see him. He just used Steve’s body language to gauge where Fury was at.
@@grimmywizard Posted a year ago but I'm just now seeing this - I wanted to point out that Adamantium and Vibranium are the same element, technically. They don't exist in the same universes, and occupy the same spot in the periodic table. They're slightly different in capability, I believe, and that's more of a universe-specific thing, but scientifically they're the same element.
And funny how that’s supposed to be his wife comics wise
It's sad that we will never be able to see this badass Bucky.......it would have been awesome if they showed just a little bit of this winter soldier in the falcon and winter soldier
they kind of did
They did in episodes 1 & 3.
Well atleast he had that deathstare in Madripor
They did. The first episode and also the third if I remember correctly. I agree with you though
Props to Chris Evans you can see that’s him in most shots doing all the fight work
Factsssss
Absolutely
Both Chris Evans and Sebastián Stan did most of the fight work.
Sebastian Stan did the knife flip and all of that as well. Practiced for months to nail it perfectly.
@@jakeman025 actually it's his stunt double who does the knife move in the movie
Captain America: The Winter Soldier is still one of the my favourite MCU movie.

Every time The Winter Soldier is on screen, you can feel the dread and what a threat he poses. Awesome.
There are three impotant things to know about me for this exerise. The first is I am a big Marvel Cinematic Universe fan, no matter wehat my friend Julia

The good old days of the MCU. One of the best fight scene.
Yeah, the old days where things were connected, made sense, and it was mostly grounded for the most part. Character development was on point as well.
@@juliusjean-baptiste924not every character was making jokes everywhere all the time, when we had stronger characters that are female and not strong female characters, when writing and creating movies was passion and not an attempt to squeeze money from the audience. those days are behind now
@@MorbiusBlueBalls Agreed. The creatives that were passionate about comics and the source material. Who they're hiring now are not really that passionate from a director standpoint and some of the writers on these projects have been terrible.
Hard to believe Winter Soldier is even made by the same company as the last... idk 5 or 6 mcu films? I stopped with Ant Man 3 and Thor Love and Thunder and Dr Strange 2, all terrible.
My favorite mcu movie and one of my favorite movies in general
Characters like these are way too strong when they are in their Evil phase, but get immediately nerfed when they turn to the good side lmao
Just like the video games 😂😂
lol
It makes sense if you think about it. In their evil phase they aren't hindered by compassion and empathy. They see a target, a mission. Changing from that to wanting to make a good impression in people's eyes, you probably will have to resort to pulling your punches.
@@zaanredelinghuys191 yea tru but in falcon and the winter soilder its like bucky lost all his fighting skills he literally lost to inexperienced power broker’s whatever there called like it’s kinda embarrassing when you have 90 years of experience and you get shit on like that. like i get that he couldn’t control his own mind but still you should still be able to fight especially when you go toe to toe with captain America
Lmaooooo Factsssss
Winter Solider was a legit badass in this movie. Every MCU after that he was just some random dude with a gun
Well civil war was pretty good. More backstory and him speaking Russian was pretty cool.
look at what they did to this great character, I will miss MCU.
@@KatzYRD yeah but he wasnt fighting as hard as this
In the future maybe Bucky gets a family and the wife was just a brainwashed assassin that follows order without any moral codes ( that’s how bad they’ve messed her)
But Bucky doesn’t know that, her wife was literally programmed to love him. Turns out she was also in the winter soldier programme but at a very young age and was easily manipulated.
They have kids and, she one day gets a new order to kill the kids. During dinner she gets up, takes a gun and shot one kid, while the other still just a toddler.
Bucky out of shock, tries to protect the toddler. But his now brainwashed wife is fighting him to kill the toddler.
They have 3 minute intense fighting , Bucky starts to get tired and he’s crying while fighting the wife. So he can’t kill the wife and the wife is really gaining more agility.
She she kills the toddler, Bucky freezes while the wife escapes the house to the streets. And the winter soldier in him gets fully activated and goes after her, He is just going for the kill. He ends up tracking her in the town’s church and they fight in the middle of the service.
POV: the town’s folk have no clue because they are the most happiest couple in the town and now they are trying to murder each other.
Bucky, goes full ham with hand to hand combat. He ends up snapping her knee, dislocating her shoulder, and snapping her jaw. And the town folks are just in shock as the police arrive, and he snaps her neck.
Police try to shoot him but,
he kills ALL 8 of them(John wick style). And as more are closing in. He ran back into his house, takes a bible, prays while he cries with his rage. Take the two dead kids, goes down the river, place rocks on their heads and prays, before taking his own life.
So that’s one way of bringing back the true winter soldier
Bucky was arguably done better in Civil War. He was a rogue antihero but still unstable and became the catalyst for the civil war
This was the winter soldier I wanted to see in the final episode
Buck just doesn't want to kill anybody, that's why...
@@Mcdonaldsreal then atleast change the end title. You've to admit they nerfed him to bits and didn't even care to change his title in the end credits. He's no more a winter soldier. Alright don't kill but don't get beaten up lmao while Sam has easy against flagsmashers Bucky struggled. That was stupid af. Steve also doesn't kill but he never gets nerfed to show that
As a fan of this winter soldier like you, we are doomed to disappointment. If only the storyline makes this guy back and we all know we can only see this winter soldier slaugter his foe with this badass way during hydra era.
Judging from this winter soldier fighting with the strongest cap Steve Rogers, I can say that the show should be called Falcon and Bucky, due to the fact this winter soldier seems atleast 3~4 times more powerful than current Bucky.
But the thing was even worse.
This WAS NOT the winter soldier you and I wanted to see in the final episode.
The winter soldier is trying to kill Steve, who is the strongest and fastest and most skillful super soldier in the MCU here. And see how bad Steve get beaten.
If those "regular civilians with less strengh enhanced serum" were the target of this winter soldier here, he would made those serum people look like idiots with their hand to hand combat skill completely outmatched by winter soldier in first 20 second, eventually all of them would became horrible corpse and winter solder only using 40% of his effort this video. Some of those serum people might got skull smashed like watermalon by WS metal arm, some of them might be killed like a ordinary person die fighting against a MMA fighter.
And this is the realistic situation what you wanted to see if this winter soldier appear in last episode.
@@麥可傑克森-t6r Bucky and the ws r different persons. While ws is way physical superior than Bucky.
I love the focus on quick reflexes and how they emphazise on that in this fight. Goes to show that every Marvel movie has a different flavor, while still being awesome. As super soldiers, fighting techniques are equally matched, so it's all about who misses and who strikes, all in a speedy combat. Both fighting at full speed, and still struggling to land a punch. Great choreography.
The Winter Soldier is one of the best MCU movies out there; it can actually stand alone outside of the other movies. And the fight sequences are raw, exciting, and well choreographed. The whole sequence, which begins with the attack on the freeway leading right up to this fight between Cap and the WS is great. Though labeled as a super hero movie, this is actually a well done action/spy/espionage movie, on par with a good Mission Impossible or James Bond movie.
The shotgun cocking sound at 0:14 on a AR...priceless

@@FrostyyMcToasty it doesn’t make that noise tho? and it was already cocked before he hopped on the car. that sfx was just unnecessary
I think maybe it was him loading another grenade into the underbarrel m302 not the actual rifle
I remember hearing before that some people didn’t like the shaky camera or the constant cutting to different angles. But honesty it sets the pace so well and gives such an immersive feel. You can see that it’s a fast paced fight because of it and when cap threw Bucky near the end, all the cameras started to calm down
Also it's not like the Bourne movies where you can't tell what's going on cause of the shaky cam, you can tell what's happening in the scene. Also gives you a bit of an insight into Cap's headspace of how freaked out by this guy he is
@@cabnbeeschurgrNah, Bourne movies' timing for the quick cut editing is perfect, it doesn't try to hide any stunt work and it works. Another reason why the shaky cam technique works in the Bourne trilogy is that the camera is used in conjunction with other techniques such as editing, sound design, and choreography. These techniques work together to create a cohesive and immersive experience, adding to the tension and intensity of the action scenes. I've seen the Bourne movie many times and it's definitely the better use of shaky cam alongside with The Winter Soldier here
If you want to see a very poor editing style in an action movie, try watch Taken 3 or Colombiana, now that's a movie where you absolutely cannot tell what the hell is going on because the actors are clearly not invested with the action scenes that they're working on so the quick cut editing was used to hide poor stunt work
Most movies just use shaky cam and quick cutting to hide sub-par choreography. They fail to realize that these are tools, not blueprints to film scenes. But in this movie they clearly had perfect choreography, and THEN they decided to add these effects in, to portray how intense and confused Nat and Cap are during the fight. So yeah this movie and the Bourne movies kind of understood that while something like Taken does not.
I LOVE how they shot this scene! Like- all the bouncing around of the camera makes it have so much more like- discord and chaos. So real!
There’s something so ominously cool about the Winter Soldier getting a hold of Cap’s shield.
I don’t think there’s ever been another scene where someone gets the better of Cap and manages to pry the shield from his very hands.
This fight is like the MCU equivalent of the Obi-Wan and Anakin fight on Mustafar…the choreography is just the best in the franchise.

@@conkrcstf6405 It's not about the shield. It's about "you"
I'd like to think that it's a callback to an earlier scene of the movie, when he fought batroc. In which he states that he thought captain america was more than just a shield.
Yes he lived without his loving shield for years when iron man took his shield by taunting that his father made
