Wissenswertes
In an interview with the publication Retro Junk, co-star Ronny Cox said this movie "...remains to this day the finest script I have ever read... how those guys messed that film up, I will never know".

Patzer
(at around 16 mins) When Steve Rogers/Captain America goes on his first mission, the flag on his uniform has 50 stars. It would have been 48 stars during World War II.

Zitate
Red Skull: We are both tragedies... And now I send our tortured souls to rest!
Captain America: Speak for yourself.

Crazy Credits
Unlike the other actors who are credited for playing two characters, Scott Paulin receives two separate credits for playing Red Skull and the Army doctor.

Alternative Versionen
Prior to the video release, a pirated copy of Captain America was available which had three extra scenes not included in the final cut:
There is additional dialogue between Steve Rogers and Bernie at the docks before Steve is sent off on his secret mission.
After Captain America parachutes down into Nazi territory, he lands in the forest and is met by two Ally spies, a male and a female, who proceed to show him the way to the enemy base. They are ambushed by Nazis, who kill the two spies before Cap finishes them all off. Cap then holds the dying female spy in his arms and is reminded of his girlfriend, Bernie, back in the United States.
There is an additional scene which explores the character of the Red Skull more, and it attempts to make him look much more like a tragic figure, haunted by his painful past. In the 1990's, as Steve Rogers is reviewing the deaths of Martin Luther King and John Kennedy and realizing that the Red Skull is to blame, the Red Skull is shown weeping over the piano seen at the end of the film, re-living the visitation of the Italian army storming into his house, shooting his family, and kidnapping him for their experiments. This scene shows that the Red Skull genuinely hates who he has become.

A Disappointment

Superhero movies are again a hot property thanks to the big screen adaptations of Spider-Man, X-Men and Superman. As such, many film buffs who know little or nothing about Captain America have no doubt been picking this one up at the video store. Too bad nothing but pure crapulescence awaits them.

Where to begin? The movie has a dim look to it; the acting is second-rate; and the action and battle scenes are few and far between. It will disappoint most die-hard comic book fans, perhaps as much as those silly 1970s Cap films were. On a positive note, the action scenes aren't awful when the viewer finally gets to them. As well, the characters stay pretty true to their illustrated roots, and kids aren't going to be nearly as fussy as adult moviegoers about this one.
