Movies at Lake Kyle: Captain America - Civil War
Bring your blankets, folding chairs and movie snacks to enjoy a relaxing evening by the water at this event hosted by Kyle Parks and Rec. Movies begins after sunset and are shown at the amphitheater at Lake Kyle. July 7’s movie will be “Captain America - Civil War,” rated PG-13. Political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability when the actions of the Avengers lead to collateral damage. The new status quo deeply divides members of the team. Captain America (Chris Evans) believes superheroes should remain free to defend humanity without government interference. Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) sharply disagrees and supports oversight. As the debate escalates into an all-out feud, Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) must pick a side.
