As bland as the blandest of Marvel movies, and Brie Larson lacks personality in the role. Didn't help that the movie so ham fisted tries to push feminist propaganda instead of a good movie.

Do yourself a favor and buy a copy of Wonder Woman

I regret wasting my money. Very sad. It is boring and insulting to the watcher. I think we are now seeing the beginning of the end of Super Hero Movies. Anything the House of Mouse touches has that reverse Midas Touch.

It's almost as if Marvel took everything that made 'Wonder Woman' such an amazing film and decided to go in the complete opposite direction.

If Captain Marvel is to be the new face of the MCU, then I fear for 'End Game' and the future of this franchise.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off to all the Marvel fans that know your comic history… You are going to hate this movie as it breaks a lot of comic lore. Walter Lawson in now Wendy Lawson. Fury’s eye is lost because… well not going to spoil it but WHAT!?!?! Monica Rambeau is a little girl who’s mother, Maria Rambeau is Carol’s best friend from her previous time on Earth. Frank Rambeau doesn’t exist. Ok so there is a few of the lore breaking parts and if that starts your blood boiling avoid the movie.

I posted an “honest no spoilers” review on RT and it was removed because “I’m trolling”. Therefore, this review has spoilers at the end.

This is a perfect example of bad writing, poor directing and wrong casting.

Brie Larson is a miscast. She obviously isn’t cut out for this part as when it switches from serious to banter her body language and facial expressions look fake. In the beginning it is established she is too emotional but during the movie she lacks emotion. They have Carlson for that. When she tries to banter, she just comes off as petty and smirks. Her combat scenes are jumpy from bad editing. Not sure if this is because she lacked the skill to simulate combat or just bad editing. If I had my choice Yvonne Strahovski would have been in the part as she has the talent and combat skills from her previous roles.

Samuel Jackson is good at his part. They did a wonderful job making him look younger in the film and I do have to applaud the art team for this. However, his character is another story. Nothing scream who the heck is this as the scenes with the cat. Fury has always been a smart tough character until here where is inexplicably trusts aliens and acts a fool at times.

Editing is a nightmare. Enough cut scenes to make your head spin and eyes ache. CGI is ok and if you want explosions you got them. In fact every so often they toss it in to keep people awake.

Spoilers below

The movie starts out with a series of dreams/memories of Carol Danvers/Vers time on Earth. In this memory is a woman, Wendy Lawson and the memories end when the skrull shoots her. She wakes up and it is revealed she doesn’t remember her past. Soon she meets the Supreme Intelligence who imitates the woman from her dreams/memories. After that onto her first mission where she is captured on the alien planet where the mission takes place.

When the Skrull are probing Vers mind they somehow discover the planet in question is Earth. Vers breaks free and fights the Skrull of course escaping the ship in a life pod. In this life pod she crashes to Earth so some how they made the journey to Earth instantaneously. Yet later it takes days for backup to travel the distance.

After crashing to Earth she meets a security guard who witnessed this crash during the middle of the night. Asking for communication equipment he points her to a Radio Shack and the pay phone next to it. Suddenly it is day with the police and Shield arriving. Guard still sitting there and Vers is calling her squad from the pay phone she upgraded. Apparently several hours have passed before anyone responded to the call made by the guard when she crashed.

A few minutes are spent trying to establish the story as Fury meets Vers for a few minutes before the obligatory attack from the Skrull. They establish the Skrull can take the shape of anyone yet with just a look Vers realizes that an elderly woman is a Skrull punching her. The Skrull have infiltrated Shield and Fury sees his first dead Skrull realizing aliens are real.

Jump to the scene where Vers is outside a bar when a biker pulls up asking her to smile (Cringe). When she doesn’t, he pulls his keys and goes inside. Vers steals some cloths off a nearby mannequin before stealing the biker’s motorcycle. But she get the key’s?

For some reason she arrives at a bar in the middle of nowhere seeing pictures on the wall of a jet involved in a top-secret project. With no explanation Fury is there and they banter a bit because now Vers cannot tell if he is a Skrull agent. She asks him several personal questions to prove he is human because Skrull’s have the recent memories of those they imitate. So, without knowing Fury she questions him about his personal past?

Que top-secret base where Fury’s thumbprint lets him on accompanied by Vers who doesn’t need a cover or credentials because… Yet, after asking about Wendy Lawson they get locked up in an office because bases don’t have holding cells. With his communicator that they didn’t take from him Fury calls for backup. Escape from the office, meet the cat and sneak into the records room by blasting the doors because nobody hears it.

Now the obligatory combat scene because people in the theater are TEXTING/READING MESSAGES ON THEIR PHONES. I walk out smoke a cigarette asking the guy at the door what the hell am I watching. Go back to at least finish the movie but by now I am also reading Reddit posts.

Disney buying empty seats and the complicit critics helping it was not lost on those paying attention to such things. Had they used the character as a bridge to bring in the X-men fighting the brood it would have been a much better use of a character that is unpopular, comics don't sell and no one cares about save at one time Rouge took her memories and powers and she became Binary during that conflict. That would have been at least interesting. Expand

Another MCU movie that is generic and cookie-cutter

Isn't the "trailblazer" the media keeps pretending it is considering DC had a solo female superhero movie back in the 80s with Supergirl, and it only took the DCEU's second solo film for Wonder Woman. I love how there is this big cry from the media, who totally aren't biased you guys (sarcasm) that if you don't love this movie, and if you don't go see this movie, than you are a woman hating sexist.

My answer to that is what does it make the media since they dumped all over Alita Battle Angel? Which was a much better movie and featured a lead who doesn't despise white men?

Don't go see this movie.

It's just not worth the price of admission. I luckily didn't have to pay out of my pocket because I got dragged last night to the Thursday screenings by my brother and his friend and my brother paid for mine because he wanted to get me out of the house since I've been sick all week.

The story is generic. Brie Larson's acting is atrocious, the villains have the make-up level of network television, the cat isn't the show stealing event the media keeps pretending it is.

Honestly there is no reason to trust the critics anymore. Syfy Wire admitted on a Podcast recently that they and everyone else will look the other way and throw softballs at certain movies to keep getting access to early screenings and red carpet events. So you can't trust the word of of a critic as far as you can throw them.

I almost don't even want to see Avengers: Endgame knowing that she will be the center of attention in it, knowing she'll most likely easily beat Thanos and make the rest of the cast we've grown to know over the course of a decade seem irrelevant. 1/10 and that's being generous

Action scenes are hard to follow and most of the movie you are spent wondering what is going on, to only have it be revealed by exposition.

Given the highs of the series such as captain america the first avenger it feels as if this movie has fallen flat by attempted political commentary over substance, while marketing itself as a landmark moment for feminism (sorry did these people claiming this not see wonder woman?).

Given this movie could have worked if elements were toned down, better editing was placed in to make it flow better and larson given acting lessons.

But we all know this will be ignored and blamed on trolls and males.

ALL other Marvel/MCU characters have an inner struggle, they taste defeat and they pull themselves up and overcome. Danvers just uses "Girl Power!"...and smashes everything. Expand

The positives:-

Goose the cat has some very good scenes

The negatives:-
Badly cast lead - Emily Blunt should have got the role
Poor fight scenes
Poor villains

The movie feels very much like a phase one film, ten years to late and out of place among the impressive changes Disney has made to the recent incarnations. If Captain Marvel is to be the face of the Marvel franchise then urgent work must be taken to correct course - recast if necessary and for the love of god seek advice from Patty Jenkins and the wonder women team.

Instead of Black Widow or Scarlett Witch films, Marvel decided to introduce a character that had 9 (nine) reboots of its comic, and market it as The Strongest and the new lead, replacing the Iron Man in the future. I don't know where to start to explain how miscast and misplaced that is.

Long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away Marvel was at its lowest, having sold many of its characters to survive, and had to use a b-rate Iron Man for its movie, which was an immense success due to charisma and carrying of Robert Downey Jr, character progression and struggle through movie, character flaws, weaknesses and humour.

This time Marvel is at its peak, ready to present the culmination of a decade-long development of franchise, having a huge roster of popular and well presented characters.

What would be the worst possible things for Marvel to do in current situation? Lets's see:
- present an unpopular provocative character out of nowhere
- market it as the strongest, as if being the strongest is what makes characters likable and popular
- devalue all the decade-long popular and developed cast by claiming that the new character will succeed where they all failed
- allow the lead actor to make provocative devisive speeches on public time and time again
- make a totally mediocre movie for a character that is supposed to be central in their culmination final movie

That's the literal description of Captain Marvel, and while I was watching Brie Larson's unphased unchanging bored face for two hours straight, I could not find any reason in my mind why Marvel did this at this time. All I felt after the end credits was a stunning emptiness inside.

It's not a bad movie, though the action scenes were very choppy and I can't remember the soundtrack at all. But for a Marvel movie that leads to Endgame, this is a disaster, thus - 1/10 from me, from the bottom of my heart and soul.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Stan Lee's tribute was nice. Some of the action sequences were entertaining but some were bad and needed too many cuts. Everything else was bad.

Jackson does well but plays a very watered down Fury. The surprise involving him was DUMB.

Brie's character was unrelatable. Her "feminist" struggle in no way impacts her character to add actual depth. Her personal struggle in the movie is: she's so strong she has to overcome being held back by father figures, but she doesn't need to go through any personal growth to accomplish this - her memories just have to come back to her.

Skrulls are completely ruined.

Actual plot is sacrificed to deliver a mixed message that refugees & terrorists are misunderstood innocents that just need help finding a home. And I don't know if this was a shot at US politics & military (analogous to the Star Force) OR an anti-Israel anti-Semitic message. Either way it's BAD.

What are you doing Marvel!?

The best word that I can use to describe this movie is FLAT. Larson is easily the least convincing superhero that I have ever seen on the big screen, and probably small screen included as well. Villain(s) are horrible. Goose is good, but not great like everyone has been clamoring about. There is no evidence that Captain Marvel will swoop in and save the day. Her power levels felt comparable to Iron Man (maybe), and certainly not anywhere near Thor, Hulk, or Scarlet Witch level at any point. The levels of unconvincing in this movie are astounding. If she is to be the face of the MCU moving forward then prepare for the oncoming nosedive.... Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you're not a fan of the comics, you may end up getting lost in what is going on with this movie. The storyline does not do well in trying to explain the backstory. In fact, the plot is just...confusing anyway. If you are a comics fan, you may end up being put off by this portrayal of what the heroin should have been.
Poor plot line, bad scripting, poor portrayal, graphics that range from absolutely fantastic, to absolutely horrible. VERY weak ending. All said, the supporting cast is the ONLY thing that will carry this movie through. Their parts are well done, and literally will be all that is worth watching in this film. May go down in history as a first for Marvel. The first that didn't fly.
Overall, the movie has it's entertainment value. Will you want to see it again? I don't. Will it join your DVD collection? Not likely. Does it encourage me to go see Avengers Endgame? NOT if this Capt. Marvel is in it, I'll pass.

Shouldn't the audience be engrossed in what's happening? Just who cares moments for the most part. Good CGI I guess but did not care if she won the fight. It seemed like no one even tested her and she was too unexcited to care. The only redeeming thing this film has is Colson or the Cat. This whole movie reminded me of when the CW has a crossover series and they spend a little more on CGI. Plot? predictable do the right thing against the people that you thought were your friends. I would recommend waiting for the video. The two additional scenes can be googled and let me tell you. Nothing Special. Also, RIP Stan Lee. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've been a Marvel Fan since I bought the comics as a Kid. My wife enjoys most of the Marvel movies but only started watching them because of me. Also, we're not a fan of the DC movies but we loved Wonder Woman. That was a great movie. With all the backlash against the Marketing of Captain Marvel I took my wife to see the movie without giving her any background info.


Her reaction to the movie was, "it was ok. I liked the cat." and "They really laid the Girl Power message on thick." When the pet cat is the best part of a Superhero flick you know the movie is bad. Now with all that said, I thought the movie was **** It was not remotely true to the source material and Brie Larson was horrible. I have a skin tag in my left arm pit that has more personality and acting range than she does. After watching the movie, all the conspiracy theories about Captain Marvel beig a Mary Sue that is being shoe horned into the MCU are confirmed. One of the last scenes, which is meant to get us excited for Endgame, did the exact opposite for me. That scene was cringey and has me worried that Captain marvel is going to ruin Endgame. The thought of Brie Larson as Captain marvel in an Avengers movie has me seriously worried about Endgame and my desire to see Endgame has decreased. That is something I did not think was possible.

Unlike Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman whose character is expressive, caring, and inspiring, Brie Larson’s character is lifeless, seems to care only about how empowered she can show she is by not showing any emotion, and not only is not inspiring… but frankly is almost impossible to like. Often a character in a film will start out in a place where he/she is not perfect, but goes through a process of learning, experience, and development where by the end of the story they are a much wholer character. This is the human experience. And this is why we root for them, embrace them, and why we end up caring about them. Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel travels a straight-line character arch. As far as development she ends up exactly in the same place she started.
After viewing this I do need to see something inspiring for International Women’s Day.
I’m going to re-watch Wonder Woman tonight at home.

The existence of Captain Marvel makes the events of the prior movies seem less important. You have to wonder where this character was when the Guardians of the Galaxy or Avengers needed help. Why does Nick Fury not care enough about the earth to call in for help in all the other Marvel movies? This movie creates too many plot holes in the Marvel universe. Expand

Both are MCU fans and they also hated it. Close to $40 in tix and another $60 in popcorn & drinks = $100 down the toilet! What I did see, it was on par with Thor: Dark World in quality (some CM's CGI/SFx makeup looks like it was done in the 1990s) and Ang Lee's Incredible Hulk in pacing/story/script and both of these movies were the least liked in MCU...until Captain Marvel showed up. So hold on to your money and maybe watch end credit scenes online for free...so you know how this new character will ruin the Avenger's End Game plot (I hope CM character does not trash that movie too!!!). As I said, most CGI special effects are just okay but the simpleton-unimaginative story, poorly-timed pacing, underwhelming acting and almost-no character development are the real villains of this movie...And worst use of No Doubt's Just A Girl song with cringe-worthy results...And Brie Larson character is just boring with no depth...does she really have an Oscar for acting???

The Best part of the movie (and got the most reaction from the whole audience was the Stan Lee tribute. Another redeeming part was the Nick Fury interaction and Samual Jackson's time on the screen. Also coming in I thought it was getting to be more political but it was not as bad. All the better Sci-Fi movies are way more subtle about those themes. And the 2 jokes (1 from Nick Fury and the other from the kid)...all the other jokes sucked. I also liked the Orange Cat. If you are forced by your wife or girlfriend and can not get out of it. Definitely do Not spend any more money to see it on Imax or any other expensive premium screenings nor waste any of your time waiting in line to see it on opening weekend.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only reason for a 1 instead of a 0 is because of the cat. Other than that, the script was horrendous and the humour was laughably bad. At first, Brie Larson/Vers/Captain Marvel seemed to be a witty and genuinely funny character with her remarks. Where did that witticism go? She was edgy and moody throughout most of the movie, so why introduce her as that?

One of the few things that made me fuming was the introduction of Mar-Vell, who was changed from a Kree minority hero to a female Kree Scientist. Why in the world was it necessary to change her origin story?

For visuals and effects, I'm glad to say that it wasn't like the rest of the movie. It was impressive and even immersive at times when Brie Larson's acting isn't getting in the way. Onto her acting: she gave Carol Danvers an undeserving bland personality. I get it, she's trying to discover herself and find out who she really is. But that shouldn't excuse the seemingly unmotivated actress to go on set and LARP. Scratch that. I know LARPers who can give her acting a run for its money.

The fight scenes were few and far in between. Sometimes, it's not a bad thing to have more narrative in a movie. However, Captain Marvel is the "strongest superhero" in the MCU. They should do her character justice by showing off her strength more instead of at a few Skrulls and an AI.

Final point: Lack of a real villain. No, it's not the Skrulls (not until the Secret Invasion at least), not Ronan, not even the Kree in this movie. Herself? Maybe. But what was the point of her fighting all of these people/aliens? My conclusive opinion of this movie is a big, fat, 1. For a Marvel movie, I had high hopes they would do Captain Marvel's questionable comic book existence justice by having a lead that was at least motivated to play the part. Her acting was poor and her push for female empowerment on an international holiday such as today did not come through. Wonder Woman did it right. Why couldn't Marvel at least do the same?

Una película aburrida, con momentos de muy bajo presupuesto en la animación, el guión demaciado mal estructurado y pésimo desarrollo de los skrulls (un poco mas y casi lloro de pena ajena).
