Blu-ray Review: Captain America: Collectors Edition

When I was a kid, there were a couple of movies that I could watch countlessly – and, finally, one of these movies is available to own on Blu-ray: Captain America: Collectors Edition. Now, you might be confused about the Blu-ray release, since Captain America was just released by Marvel Studios in the last few years. The movie that I am referring to was originally planned to be a Theatrically Released Live Action Captain America movie (slated to be in theaters in 1990), but instead, ended up being a Direct-To-Video release in 1992. Maybe you have heard of it, or maybe you haven’t…Either way, I cannot begin to say how excited I was to hear about this release (I burnt out two copies of the film on VHS while growing up). While it might not be remembered as t he greatest Marvel adaptation ever, I think Captain America: Collectors Editor on Blu-ray stands on its own as being a fun (yet campier) take on the legacy of our hero in the red, white, and blue.
