REVIEW: The Falcon and the Winter Soldier – Episode 2 “The Star-Spangled Man”
With “The Star-Spangled Man,” The Falcon and the Winter Soldier moves forward in some areas, but steps backward in others, with a net result of running in place. It’s certainly not as boring as “New World Order,” and it takes a surprising early route with a controversial new character, but...
