The biggest problems, for me, with DOFP was that not many of the characters meant a whole lot, except for the same ol' guys - Professor X, Magneto, Wolverine, etc. When we saw the others die, well, you didn't even get to know who they were to garner any kind of emotion. And all of the future action was in slow motion, as if in a dream. The deaths were not that impactful, to me.The best thing for DOFP, for me, was the erasure of The Last Stand and the stupid death of Scott Summers, and the removal of him from the X-movie universe without ever using him. He was not shown to be very important to the movie universe, and then he was killed.
Winter Soldier had, spy intrigue, fantastic action, relationships that I loved - Black Widow and Steve, Steve and Winter Soldier, Nick and Steve, and the budding relationship with the Falcon, etc. And the actors were all good. And by the way, I thought it was just as complex, if not moreso, than DOFP.
