I really liked it.
It was honest. Cap isn't an angsty teen, he isn't a tortured soul, he's not an arrogant child, not a colossal ego. He's just Cap. He feels like a Golden Age (or early Silver Age) hero, and it was hugely refreshing from the recent glut of ever-doubting superhero movies.
Hugo Weaving was excellent, I actually thought he got better after he ripped his face off. The way he acted after that point really gave off the feeling that he felt he was better than the rest of humanity. Evans was way better here than when he played Johnny Storm, he's really grown as an actor. Cap would be an easy role to overact (just play him as a paladin), but Evans added depth without going down the tortured soul path. He just played it honestly, and it worked really well for him.
The action sequences were great, and while the montage was a little cheesy, I didn't feel it was out of place. It felt like a newsreel.
I saw it in 3D. While it wasn't bad like other movies can be, it doesn't really add anything.
