The latest film in Sony"s Spider-Man Universe copied an iconic Chris Evans Captain America moment, but it didn"t have the same effect. The SSU has been on a rocky journey since its inception. While 2018"s Venom was a hit, creating a universe starring Spider-Man villains without Spider-Man was an interesting choice. However, Sony wants the success of a shared cinematic universe similar to the MCU, even if Sony"s catalog is more limited. This has led to bizarre MCU crossovers, such as Vulture"s cameo in Morbius and Venom"s appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home.
The MCU is the pinnacle of superhero filmmaking with many of the best films in the genre. The Captain America films are some of Marvel"s best, with exceptional action and captivating spy-espionage thrillers. Many other superhero films have attempted to replicate aspects of these films, but usually come up short. Sony"s latest film, Kraven the Hunter, tries to copy one of Captain America"s greatest moments but fails to recapture the magic in several ways.
Kraven The Hunter Recreates Captain America's Helicopter Scene From Civil War Close In Kraven the Hunter, Kraven chases down his brother, Dimitri, who is kidnapped by a few of The Rhino"s goons. In the final stages of the chase, Dimitri is taken on a helicopter, and Kraven grabs a net to keep his brother from leaving. He can hold it for a few minutes, even while being dragged underwater, but his brother eventually gets away. It shows how strong Kraven is by preventing a helicopter from flying away through pure strength.

Posts 1 This scene copies one of Captain America"s best moments during Captain America: Civil War. Steve Rogers stops Bucky Barnes from escaping by grabbing the bottom of a helicopter and holding himself to a roof. He shows off his impressive biceps while trying his hardest to keep Bucky from leaving. Audiences always knew Cap was strong, but this scene showed his perseverance as he refused to let go of the helicopter until Bucky forced him to.
Kraven The Hunter's Helicopter Scene Makes Him Look Weaker Than Steve Rogers Close Kraven and Steve Rogers showed immense strength by playing tug-of-war with a helicopter. Helicopters can be 10,000 pounds or more plus the people in the helicopter, and the immense force they use when flying. However, Steve"s feat of strength is more impressive than Kraven"s based on the end result. Kraven gets dragged underwater by the vehicle and eventually has to let it go, letting Rhino"s henchmen escape with his brother.
Steve successfully prevents Bucky from escaping and only lets go of the helicopter when Bucky pushes it toward him. Cap also shows off his arms, emphasizing how jacked Chris Evans/Steve Rogers is. Kraven is wearing a long-sleeved shirt and fails to keep the helicopter from leaving. Kraven the Hunter"s helicopter sequence isn"t as captivating as Civil War"s, but it also makes its main character look worse by comparison.
