I have heard that that main actress of this film has no interested in the opinions of my kind, but ill give it anyway.. This was easily the worst origins story there has been, Carol is very hard to like or sympathize with as she apparently is just perfect and unstoppable, giving the character nothing for the viewer to relate to on a human level. Basically the whole movie is a paint by numbers, cookie cutter action hero film, drenched with ideological politics, designed to indoctrinate young girls into a culture of men hate and excess self importance (modern day feminism) it dosent make for a good film and its the first step in the end of the MCU. Oh But the cat was OK, it a cat! they needed something likable in the film. Its a shame because after Brie Larson last few films I was becoming a huge fan of hers, she was the best part in 21 jump Street and Room was just an incredible film that sticks with me to this day.. But then she has to show who she really was, publicly letting me know that she hates me and other like me, simply because of the race and gender I was born with. Expand

Whereas he couldn't help himself from being sexist and badmouthing the movie and spouting misogynist rhetoric (gosh I wish I knew why my wife loves him so much), I actually had a great time! Brie Larson does an amazing job at smashing the patriarchy in this bold movie and its portrayal of a strong female lead for the first time in cinema history.
Definitely do watch this, but don't bring your wifes boyfriend.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is one of my favorite movies of 2019, one of my favorite Marvel movies, one of my favorite superhero movies, and one of my favorite movies of all time. Brie Larson's leading performance as Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel was stupendous she was funny, serious, and awesome. Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, and Lashana Lynch also gave fantastic performances. I loved Goose the cat aka Goose the Flerken he was cute and awesome. The visual effects were spectacularly incredible especially the de-aging of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury and Clark Gregg as Phil Coulson, all of Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel's powers, and Goose the cat when he used his abilities as a Flerken. The makeup and hair styling was terrific especially on the Skrulls. The costume designs were amazing especially Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel's. The music featured in the movie was wonderful but sometimes the songs didn't quite fit the scenes they were in. The writing, story, and screenplay were great. This was an A+ movie. Expand

There is much to like about Captain Marvel. I see why Brie Larson was selected for the title role; she is an amazing actress, and an Oscar winner to boot. Brie's acting, while inconsistent in some areas, was great overall. Samuel L Jackson was memorable in his role, and an excellent anchor for the film. The other actors and actresses were generally good. Also, a poignant moment was a great tribute to Stan Lee. Captain Marvel had humor (particularly goose!), a compelling story (although I thought a few aspects of the story did not add up), intrigue. I would recommend seeing it at least once. After seeing Captain Marvel, I am even more excited about seeing Endgame. Expand

THIS IS A REAL REVIEW:
Captain Marvel is a film that has a lot going for it. Being the first Marvel movie of 2019, and the last movie in the lead up to Avengers: Endgame. So I'm gonna start with the good stuff first. The soundtrack is really good, the more techno aspect of it reminds me of Thor Ragnarok, but really scaled back. The CGI is pretty good throughout most of the film, especially Samuel L Jackson's de-aging CGI. The story is broken apart so that the film goer gets snippets of information at times, which is an interesting technique, but eventually became a bit repetitive. The Stan Lee cameo was fantastic, and a great callback too. Outstanding performances by Samuel L Jackson, and Ben Mendelsohn. Now onto the bad, the cast is a little bland at times and due to the run-time of the film there isn't really a whole lot of time for the average film goer to solidify a connection to the characters. Larson who plays Captain Marvel is really stiff at times, and isn't really all that likable, as towards the later parts of the movie she comes off as extremely cocky. On top of that the film has a lot of dry humor, however they don’t give the time needed for most of the laughs to land, literally a second or two more would’ve been enough. In the end, Captain Marvel is a decent flick, it has flare where it needs it and that’s it, it’s a pretty good superhero movie with a lot of minor context for the last 10 years of the MCU.

Acting was great, story was thoughtful and detailed, CGI was the usual marvel AWESOME.

Carol Danvers is a true superhero (bordering on overpowered) and it was refreshing to see Nick Fury joke a lot instead of being his usual-grumpy.

Looking forward to seeing Avengers Endgame!

(Ignore the user score. The trolls are in hard for this movie. I'm sure this comment will get thumbs downed like crazy)
Captain Marvel is excellent! Brie Larson is much more expressive in the movie than she is in the trailers, which is what my main concern was (not some political remarks).

The movie is fun and bright, but to my surprise knew how to take itself seriously. One of my major complaints with Marvel films is the overload of Bathos (all jokes, all the time, no matter the cost). I think that this is probably one of the best Marvel solo films since Iron Man 1 or Winter Soldier.

Captain Marvel is directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, written by Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck and Geneva Robertson-Dworet and starring Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelssohn and Jude Law.

The story follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe's most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races. Set in the 1990s.

Captain Marvel is an all-new adventure from a previously unseen period in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, for that reason I say it's a new way to see a MCU movie, and it's also crazy, the OST, the humor and the era.. this movie is a bonker!!!

Captain Marvel is a very fun time, guys.. it's really cool, fueled by CGI action sequences, and the amazing performances by Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelssohn, BTW Ben M. is very surprising to him that great, he's by far the best thing in this movie, just like Samuel L. for me! Goose the Cat comes at the second place.. I don't want to spoil anything to you about that amazing, funny cat.. but guys, prepare to get your mind blown!!! Also the CGI of Samuel L. Jackson, to make him younger, is AMAZING!!!!!! This is the BEST age-CGI-ed character I've ever seen.. literally!

Is it a perfect movie? NOPE!! It has some flaws, it's not a great heroine movie, there are better heroine movies, but it's still a fun one, but still flawed.

My biggest issue with this movie is the first 15min, guys, they were super-rushed, even the direction was rushed... There's also a scene when "a team" was searching for "someone", it was so dark that it was literally so hard to see who is doing what, that scene bugged me so much! It took me sometime to recognize the characters! There's also a very good scene when Captain Marvel was trying to get those lockers out of her hands, rushed, but cool! When Captain Marvel arrived Earth, as we saw in the trailer, things Finally got back to the right course. It was humorous, slow-paced.. a little bit, and all the good things started to happen.

And the thing that I didn't imagine to say, is that Brie Larson is not that good as Carol AKA Captain Marvel, she's a very talented actress, so I expected something.. better from her, but she was Brie Larson, nothing more! I hope to see her better in Avengers: Endgame.

It's a good origin superhero movie -still not that amazing- with some amazing action sequences fueled by good CGI. I'm gonna give Captain Marvel a B! Go and see it, it worth your time, guys... And as always, thank you, guys for reading and supporting my work, really appreciate it, and if you liked it you can click on my name up above and see all of my reviews.

Probably a lot of these dudes are the same idiots who enjoy a film like "John Wick."

Captain Marvel, of course, is pretty darn good. As action adventure flicks go, the story is better than most, and it provides enough character, action, and humor to even keep me interested throughout its 124 minute runtime.

If you don't know Captain Marvel's backstory, doesn't matter. I knew nothing about the character going in and if I missed anything as a result I still haven't noticed. OK, well, I'm still wondering about flerkins, but I guess I grasped the main point.

If you like costumed heroes you should definitely give Captain Marvel a look.

And for the guy who called this film a Disney "money grab," just what the heck do YOU think the film industry, or every industry, is all about? Thank you, Captain Obvious lol.

Captain Marvel as a movie is trying too hard to sell viewer the fact that it's a movie about female superhero and it's ruining the potential of the movie.
I like Brie as a Captain Marvel but she needs to work on her acting skills because she was trying to blend two extreme sides of two different characters together and it was just too awkward and fake. If she toned down the "i am a hero" act and "i'm funny" act it would go together way better than it actually ends up being in the movie.

In the end, I was able to have some fun with the movie but I wouldn't call it a great experience like with some other MCU movies.

I honestly watched this expecting it to be a seat squirming, slow motion car crash of an experience (but you know, make the effort it's MCU cannon and I should probably watch this before end game).
It was actually very watchable, yes it has about 45 seconds of the equivalent of female gillette advert thrown in twice, which was excessive and unnecessary. But story wise and acting wise it was good (certainly towers over DC's wonder woman), I'd have preferred Brie Larson to have payed the part a bit more starkly authoritarian, to aid the future dynamics of MCU, but I suspect the intention was to make her character more relatable even if this meant deviating from the source material, "shoot first ask question later" nature.
Finally this film is no where near as WOKE as it's detractors would have you believe.

Brie Larson is pleasant in the lead role, a tad wooden in parts but overall I rate what she gives this film. It's cool to have Samuel L. Jackson's character get a deeper dive and bigger screen time than usual. I also liked Ben Mendelsohn as Talos. Other cast members, like Jude Law, are fine if forgettable.

Everything else about this is basically what you'd normally get from an MCU production: strong action, great effects, solid humour and an interesting plot. This 21st film from the universe is a good'un!

All and all this movie is worth watch, Brie Larson and Sam Jackson are amazing. Who wouldn't want to be Captain Marvel after watching this movie?
I hope there is a sequel and definitely cracked the top ten in terms of Marvel Movies for me. Go out and see for your self. Very good film.

Oh dear I’m going to p*ss off a lot of people with this review. I honestly didn’t have a ton of problems with this movie. And before you call me an SJW or anything like that. I am a conservative person who happened to enjoy this movie. I understand that you’re exhausted of politics in film, But vote rigging down the “Want To See” score on Rotten Tomatoes is not going to fix anything and is a bit unfair. But that’s not the point of this review (I had to say it to give the fans a message), The story while not perfect is decently written and the performances of Jackson and Mendelson are terrific (Though Larson is decent).

Endgame will be the final time we see IronThe final installment of Marvel’s phase three and the end of the Marvel cinematic universe is nearly upon us with “Avengers Endgame”. It’s not the true end technically but it almost has that feel. Endgame will be the final time we see Iron Man, Captain America, and maybe even Thor again on the big screen. Captain Marvel shows the future of phase four and beyond that she will share with the likes of Spider Man, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, and many others. I will start by saying that going into this film, I didn’t know anything about Captain Marvel. Never read any of her comics and didn’t know her background so this film was a complete surprise in story and character to me so basically I went into it with completely fresh eyes. The film opens right away with a nightmare from Vers aka Carol Danvers (played by the lovely Brie Larson). We experience her in a plane crash with a alien approaching her with a flash of white light as she gets shot at. This scene is a central part of the films entire story and third act. She then shares scenes with Yon-Rogg (Jude Law) during some fight training leading into their first battle as a group with Djimon Hounsou (playing his same character from Guardians of the Galaxy) and Gemma Chan. The films first act does suffer from some confusing sequences and I did find myself a little confused and scattered with how the first 25 minutes of the film was laying out the story. I don’t know if was the editing or how the script laid out the structure but it’s not something that is a problem for Marvel films usually. Once Carol crashes on Earth, that’s when the film gets going. We are treated to many funny sequences especially one where she crash lands into a Blockbuster Video and this is because the film takes place in the year 1995. I will say that this really makes me miss having them around. Her scenes with Sam Jackson are some of the best moments. They jump from set piece to set piece with hilarious banter and action sequences. We get to know why this working relationship was such a crucial part to the end credit sequence in the end of Infinity War. Now, some people maybe asking how well the de-aging special effects work in the film. As you know, Sam Jackson and Clark Gregg needed to be de-aged for the film due to it taking place more then 20 years before the events in The Avengers. I am glad to say that Sam Jackson’s de-aging looks flawless. They did a fantastic job and can hardly tell that any effects were used on his face at all. The same can’t be said for Clark Gregg as many scenes due look a little to CG on his face, especially some expressions. It’s defintely nowhere near as bad as Tron Legacy de-aging though but I forgive it in that film because that’s when this effect work was just starting. It has come a long way. I have heard some people upset with Brie Larson’s performance here. I can admit at first, I wasn’t fully buying into her. When we look at past Marvel films, stars like Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. were just beyond perfect playing Captain America and Iron Man. They just fit the roles so perfectly. Like I said before, I don’t know much about Captain Marvel so I can’t make a comparison. As the film goes on, Brie Larson starts to feel more and more like the character I would imagine her to be and by the end, I couldn’t wait to see her in the upcoming “Avengers Endgame”. Every moment in third act bridges our journey to Endgame (make sure to watch the end credit scene). All in all, Captain Marvel is another good addition to the Marvel Universe and definitely makes you wonder if the sequel will show us the War on Kree. Phase four of Marvel is headed in a great direction and Endgame can’t come fast enough with a worthy addition of Captain Marvel.

Grade: B

I think a lot of these very low reviews are people who are entirely prejudiced against the actress for things she did not say, which are based on things that were taken out of context in some way. Additionally, and this defies all logic, they simply did not want a female led superhero film from Marvel. Either way, even with some aspects of the film I did not care for, it was a fun, action driven film that makes me even more impatient for Avengers: Endgame to get here. Ignore the really low ratings and judge for yourself. Expand

Leaving all the other crap that was going on surrounding the weeks leading up to the movies release. It really isn't that bad of a movie. The main problem which I think alot of others had with the actual movie is that the movie and script were both filmed and written to fit the 1995 time era, hence many scenes seeming so cringeworthy! the CGI was not as well implemented as I would have hoped but and it was a marvel to watch the various action scenes in the movie non the less (no pun intended). With respect to the leads acting skill, I do not think she is bland but rather the character was written that way to fit in with the Kree warrior being an emotionless being. All in all I enjoyed the film better when understanding the cinematography and writing's time era. Word to the wise, 2 end credit scenes, the mid credits is the one to stay for, Youtube the other!

Bad start leads to a much better second half. Basically, I liked the film, but it had some problems at the beginning.

If you don't know the background, it is not easy to understand everything at the beginning, it is a bit confusing staged and written. With the arrival on Planet C-53, however, the film begins to pick up speed.

Brie Larson and Samual L Jackson in particular have great buddy chemistry that really sustains the film. In addition, a pleasant twist that makes the film much more exciting and a secret star in the form of a cat.

Ultimately better than some other Marvel films, but also not as outstanding as most of the good to very good Marvel movies.

It's the reason Superman is my favorite superhero. But I digress.

Good chemistry between Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson, who spend a big chunk of the movie together. Both fantastic actors. We also get to see a well done de-aged Samuel L. Jackson because the action takes place in the past. There is a big twist that completely changes the movie. Took me by surprise. Can't wait to see the sequel in 2022.

But it's unfortunate Captain Marvel is yet another movie that has been review-bombed solely for political reasons by angry insecure manchildren because Brie Larson committed wrongthink by being a feminist. Captain Marvel still passed $1 billion at worldwide box office. Lol!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I went in with zero expectations and was blown away. I love this movie! I have since watched it a dozen times to analyze it (a hobby of mine).

Ignore the lowest reviews that cite SJW nonsense. I’m a white man in my 40s, and I 100% agree with what Brie Larson ACTUALLY SAID about movie reviewers. The offense taken at her statements—which have been viewed completely out of context—led many racist and sexist trolls to try to ruin this film before anyone saw it. They failed, and I’m glad.

This is NOT just a movie about girl power. Carol Danvers is absolutely not OP from the start, nor is she “wooden” and “emotionless.” Carol goes through quite a journey of self rediscovery and realization of the forces that have abused and exploited her for years.

This film has all the elements of a great superhero film, and does it in a way that both fits well into the MCU and shows young girls that they can be heroes, too, no matter how many times they are knocked down by the world.

And guys, Nick Fury did NOT lose his eye to “a cat.” Pay attention!

As an old fan of Marvel comics, there are serious implication here. The plot is very very different from the original, but Capitain Marvel movie must be seen as a complement of the whole MCU - This is a not a stand alone movie and in fact I saw this movie as a introduction of Marvel to the End Game. Yes, it's not the best MCU movie and shouldn't BE, since it's a middle story of an epic (for me the best of all times) -> "Avengers infinity war" - If you take all the content and story acting int the MCU context that makes the whole sense and also leads me to think what will come next on the Endgame - for me Mar-Vell in the comics as much in the MCU isn't a forgettable movie. I rather say that in the MCU context it is a twist, and I love the hang cliff twisted stories. It just ads spice.

ps: what if in the End game we could see inside the quantum reality, the comics reality portrait into a parallel universe of the MCU, where the things goes differently. What if? #mymindisblowing comics be a parallel universe of the MCU, Doctor strange might know better than us :D (don't blame me but I love this!!!!)

Sam Jackson meanwhile, is a God. Just the slightest change in his attitude in acting, and we actually have a very convincing younger, less jaded Fury.
Action sequences were restricted at the beginning, but when it starts blowing up to grand scale it totally did.

CGI was top notch. Within 5 minutes of same Jackson appearing on screen I completely forgot that they de-aged him, it was just so natural (Coulson alittle less so though..)

There's 90s references, MCU Easter eggs, Stan Lee, awesome super powers, CAT!
There's everything to love here.

Though the latest addition to the MCU has some flaws, specifically in the 3rd act during a CGI infused action sequence against an entire space fleet, CM wins you over with nostalgic easter eggs, solid action stretches, and some well-placed banter. As it compares to the rest of the MCU, it will likely find itself in the middle of the pack but it might have one of the greatest supporting performances in the franchise with Ben Mendelsohn. Expand

Great story, Brie fits perfectly as the stoic yet funny Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel and the fighting scenes were pretty awesome.

Found it to be a very enjoyable super hero movie. Only thing that bugged me was Marvel's helmet.

It’s one of the funnier Marvel films in recent memory, and while it is a fairly typical origin story there were a few twists along the way that I quite liked. The action was also solid and I think it sets Carol up well for the big role she will inevitably have in Avengers: Endgame. I thouroughly enjoyed it. Expand

For a Marvel film it's very much middle of the road and simply isn't up to the high level of quality the studio has set. It's not a bad movie per se, but it could have been much better.

Pros: Goose the cat steals every scene he's in. And Ben
For a Marvel film it's very much middle of the road and simply isn't up to the high level of quality the studio has set. It's not a bad movie per se, but it could have been much better.

Pros: Goose the cat steals every scene he's in. And Ben Mendelsohn does a great job! Fury and Capt Marvel also have a good odd couple/buddy cop vibe going for them for the brief time it's shown in the film, which leads me to the cons....

Cons: 1) They keep changing up what the film is supposed to be. First it's a duck out of water story, then it's a buddy cop film, then it's something else entirely. The overarching theme changed 3 or 4 times and it feels like the film has multiple first acts. 2) It's predictable now and then so you are stuck waiting for the characters to catch up. 3) They really fumbled the 90s nostalgia--it felt really forced and the music that was selected was misplaced or a poor fit for the scenes they were used in. 4) The audio was poorly mixed--the music is WAY louder than all the other audio in the film for some reason. I thought this was maybe just the theater, but reading reviews online this seems to be a common observation.

In conclusion I'd give a 6.5/10, which I'll round up to a 7/10 for the mid-credit scene and Stan Lee cameo and intro. Worth catching once in the theater because it's still a decent popcorn movie and I'm all in with the MCU. However, if you're not a big Marvel fan and/or can catch the mid-credits scene online, then you could probably wait for video. It's not what I would characterize as a "must see in the theater" movie along the lines of Thor 2.

An actual "must see in theater" film is Alita: Battle Angel. Now THAT deserves to be seen in IMAX 3D. Such a beautiful film, and great movie in general.

Taking its time to develop the characters, not focused on violence over the actual weight of what's happening as other Marvel movies tend to do. Relatable. As a movie I would honestly give it a 8/10 because it still is a superhero "burger" movie, not Casablanca. But seeing the hateful comments with people giving lowest possible score, I am adding for balance. Guys, just let us have some fun too. Smile! ;) Expand

I had started to become a little disenfranchized with all of the superhero movies lately and was not even interested in seeing this one, but I am super glad that I did. It isn't the same old story and the characters actually depth.

Brie Larson was inspiring, she reached the inner fighter within and showed the world how us girls can get back up without the massive makeup and skimpy outfits. We don't always have to have the bright happy girlie attitude. This is one of those movies you gotta watch again and again because you missed something. I'm excited for End Game after seeing this movie. Captain Marvel answered so many questions about the Marvel Universe. I left the theater satisfied and craving more. I highly suggest watching this movie multiple times. I am. Expand

It's a very human exploration of both the main character and supporting characters. Captain Marvel knows how and when to use humor and you'll find yourself laughing more often than during some of the more serious MCU movies.
