This is a novelization of about half the movie but it does cover the basis. As for novelizations this one is pretty good all things considered. I liked Civil War more than the First Avenger but as for Captain America’s story, Winter Soldier is the best. Overall, really good.

8 pages of photos along with the text for younger readers. Covers only a portion of the movie. There's other books in the series. Pretty good.

Individual freedom vs Responsibility to People.

IMHO, analoginya macam anti-masker dan anti-vaxxer di masa pandemi dengan alasan individual freedom tanpa mempertimbangkan responsibility pada masyarakat luas.

Team Responsibility all the way.
Iron Man, War Machine, Black Panther, Spider-Man semuanya pakai kostum full mask.
Yang tidak pakai masker cuma Vision (android dengan antivirus) dan Black Widow (yang pada akhirnya gabung ke tim anti masker).

Mwahahahaha....

This isn't freedom. This is fear. - Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

This is what I think of when I heard about the accords in order to control those with superpowers in an attempt to protect Earth. But, Cap is right. These accords are created out of fear.

In case you're wondering, this is NOT the entire Civil War film. If you have seen the film, the book ends just after Bucky, Cap, Falcon, and Black Panther are captured after Bucky was thought to set up a bomb in Vienna at the signing of the accords.

Man, was I heartbroken to see that's where the book ended. Anywho, the junior novelization wasn't terrible, but it could have been more. Hell, it needed to have been more.

Once again, only half the movie and really disappointing with this one since the big battle between all the Avengers was not included.

I have just read Captain America Civil War by Chris Wyatt, it was about how the avengers saved the world but saving the world comes a price of clatroll damge and lives. The Avengers whent on Equations with parenthesis: decimals & fractions misson like a normal day but that day an avenger messed up when trying to lift a bomb into the air it exploted causeing lives to be lost. It was a nice read i like junior novel it about 5 buck so you can read befor paying 20 dalliers to watch it. I dint like how they like to make it more pg insted of how it was in the movie.

It just in some parts were changed like instead of the avengers likeing to drink coffee it was soda. I mean i thought the book was ok but it remined me how marvel was making many books that they don't take time right a good story right a junior novel so sometimes making it dry.

It is for ages i would say for ages 8 to 12

As movie novelization go, this one is not too shabby in the sense that it provides closure to those scenes in which the actors practice the craft of mumbling their lines. The paperback version is less expensive than the ebook - less than the movie rental charge - and worth it to clear those mumbling issues up. It is a junior novel, so don't expect brilliant writing. Praise Thor, it gets the job done. Amen.

It's only the first half of the movie.

[Jakob · Rating 1 out of 5]

It's been a while since I read it, but i did not like it all since it only told about a quarter of the story. Don't read this.

[Md Yusuf · Rating 4 out of 5]

Interesting but half the movie.

[Lea Hart · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is exactly like the movie :)

[Colin · Rating 2 out of 5]

Warning: It only tells HALF of the story. Ripoff!

[Nessa [October Tune] · Rating 3 out of 5]

I don't know why, but I kind of expected this story to be the exact story from the movie, written down and simplified for children. It wasn't that at all. I mean it had the same storyline, the same events still happened, but there were slight differences and I know it shouldn't bother me, but it did.

Above all that, the fact that it was written for children annoyed me a bit because of there were so many exclamation marks used, like dude - chill out. And the fact that they completely erased Peggy's death and funeral, I understand they did it because this book came out around the same time as the movie (or sooner even, from the POV of the Americans), but still I missed that part so much and it bothered me.

There was one thing I did love about this book, my favourite scene of all time - the paprikash scene with Wanda and Vision - was in there. At first glance I thought it wasn't int here and I was rather sad, but when I started reading the book it was there and as Wanda said, my spirits were lifted!

BUT THEN... There is a poster in the back, yeah? It's really cool and everything, were it not for the fact that WANDA. MAXIMOFF. IS NOT ON THAT POSTER AND THEY LITERALLY PUT A PICTURE OF A BLONDE HAYLEY ATWELL INSTEAD?! It's supposed to be Agent 13, Sharon Carter, I know, but the girl on that poster does not look like Emily Vancamp at all. Pfffffft. Sharon doesn't even fight in that final airport battle scene, why the fuck is she on half of the promo stuff while she literally does nothing but encourage Steve to fuck shit up even more?!

So yeah, as much as I would have loved this book, I didn't. Such a shame.

Jacob finished this book within a couple of days. It is 5 stars but he liked the first Captain America book the best. Dad and mom are so happy that we have found a series that Jacob absolutely consumes and wants more and more books like this. He is passing these book on to his sister to read (saying he knows she will take care of them and can trust her with them :)....krb 9/6/16

Jacob has waited to read this (after reading 2 of mom's picks) for our summer family reading program. After quiet time he was so excited to tell me how much he likes re-reading this book...krb 6/24/18

Not a bad basic novel for a Jr but isn't completed story ends just after captain america Sam (falcon) and bucky (winter solider) are arrested in Berlin. My son is a huge marvel fan and loves this book he has sent he film as well and knows what happens buff if you haven't then the end half is missing so still left wondering what happens next, I'm hoping there's a part two to this book eventually as I'm sure my son would love reading this.

I got the hardback version from Target. It came with a poster- that was nice. the adaptation is good; for kids, obviously. BUT IT ONLY HAS 3/4s OF THE STORY. It ends just after Team Cap is taken into custody in Berlin. I should have previewed it more carefully.

[Lizzie the Book Hoarder · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really liked this book except it is not a novelization of the whole movie. It covers about half of the movie.
