Prepare For Civil War: 25 Greatest Captain America Moments In The Marvel Cinematic Universe
By Steve Lam
#1 – I’m with You till the End of the Line
From: Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
Captain America succeeds in his mission of getting the Helicarrier drones to target and attack each other. However, both him and the Winter Soldier (Bucky) are still on board one of them. As a giant steel beam collapses onto Bucky, Steve leaps down and lifts it with all his might. With just enough of a gap, Bucky safely slides out from underneath. Now, Steve’s second mission starts: bringing the mind of his best friend back.
As Bucky stands, Steve reminds him of his past life. An angered and frustrated Bucky punches Steve, trying to make him stop. However, Steve is relentless, and endures the devastating superhuman hits from Bucky. Steve finally removes his helmet and drops his shield, reiterating that he’s his friend.
Bucky tackles Steve and releases a barrage of hits to his face, cementing to Steve that he’s his “mission.” Pummeled to an inch of his life, Steve utters, “Then finish it … Cause I’m with you till the end of the line.” Heartwarming words that Bucky said to Steve over 70 years ago.
As Bucky froze, debris breaks the Helicarrier’s platform, causing Steve to fall into the water below. Later, Bucky is seen dragging an unconscious Steve to shore and leaving him there. A hint that Steve has gotten through to Bucky.
Captain America’s commitment to justice, freedom, and liberty are unmatched by any. But it’s his unwavering belief in hope and goodness that makes him a stand-out hero.
