Anecdotes
According to Reb Brown, when they were filming this movie in Los Angeles, California. He walked out of the trailer in full Captain America outfit. Some drunk sitting on the wall looks at him in the costume with a shield, falls down off the wall, and says as he looks at his bottle of booze, "I really gotta to stop drinking this stuff." Looks back at Brown in the costume, blinks his eyes a couple of times. Knowing that Brown is really there in costume then says, "Well, maybe not."

Gaffes
Reb Brown and his stunt double have noticeably different physiques; the double's chest is much more defined.

Versions alternatives
There are two different opening sequences: One begins with a recap of _Captain America_ (1979) and uses the comics-book-cover logo (seen on the video box art) as the title without the "II" or subtitle. The other omits the recap and uses a more generic font for the title, spelling "Captain America II" on three lines in red, white and blue (one color for each line).

Captain America at War Against Terrorists

This film essentially begins with a scientist by the name of "Professor Ian Ilson" (Christopher Cary) being kidnapped by a terrorist known simply as "Miguel" (Christopher Lee) to help him in an extortion attempt against the United States of America. In furtherance of that goal, Miguel forces Professor Ilson to create a substance which can increase the aging process in both animals and humans. Recognizing the impact that this substance would have if a large city were to be sprayed with this substance, "Captain America" (Reb Brown) is sent to the last place Professor Ilson was seen to investigate. What he doesn't count on, however, is the hostile reception he gets from the local people of the town once he arrives. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this made-for-television movie started off pretty good but, much like its predecessor, suffered somewhat because of the rather poor fight scenes and basic special effects. That being said, while it wasn't a bad film necessarily, the glaring faults just mentioned were simply too hard to ignore, and I have rated this movie accordingly. Slightly below average.
