After a mission results in collateral damage, global governments push for the Sokovia Accords, a law to regulate the Avengers. This divides the team: Tony Stark supports accountability, while Steve Rogers opposes it, fearing government control. The tension escalates when Bucky Barnes, Steveโs childhood friend and the Winter Soldier, is accused of a terrorist attack.
As Steve defends Bucky, it leads to a conflict with Tony, who is driven by guilt and duty. The divide deepens with the introduction of new allies like Black Panther and Spider-Man to Tony’s side, while Steve gains support from Falcon, Scarlet Witch, and others.
The battle culminates in a massive airport fight, showcasing the fractured Avengers. However, the real twist comes when Tony discovers Bucky was brainwashed into killing his parents, igniting a brutal showdown between Tony, Steve, and Bucky.
The film ends with the Avengers broken and in hiding, setting the stage for future conflicts. Captain America: Civil War blends intense action with emotional stakes, exploring themes of loyalty, morality, and the cost of heroism in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
