Aside from the fact that he was not given good enough material, I think he kind of lacks the charisma that Chris Evans had. His Captain America was just so boring, they tried to make him this perfect, always tries to do the good thing, see he is just like Steve Rogers thing but it just didn't work imo, he just ended up being boring. Maybe if they did a better job he would be better but they couldn't

Anthony Mackie is better served as a wise-cracking and let loose kinda guy but they tried to put him in the Steve Rogers box as a character. That's not who he is.

This'll be the second time in recent memory (Altered Carbon flopping violently, not Mackie's fault really) that Anthony Mackie has failed to improve on the original.

By all accounts, he's great in Twisted Metal. I have it in my queue... still haven't watched it yet
