This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. English is not my native language, so I apologize for spelling mistakes.
I read comics for almost 20 years, I saw all the marvel movies and all tv show (except inhumans), I found this film at best mediocre, and had moments of pure frustration.
What I liked:
Samuel L. Jackson's acting was very good, Stan Lee's tribute and cameo, Ben Mendelsohn and CG.
What i dislike
Brie Larson's performance (not all, but most, she seemed bored for most of the movie), 99% of the jokes, the genderswap of an iconic character (Mar-Vel), the predictable twist, she is very OP, the origin of the avengers name (completely ridiculous), the Kree vs. Skrull "war", Skrulls being the "immigrants", how Fury lost his eye, Fury just being a **** when woman is around (the scene with him and Photon was cringe AF) .

and about the politics of the film: yes, they have a feminist / man (white) hate moments, it's not the same level as ghostbusters but not that subtle, especially the flash backs, all white man telling her she is not good enough and she should quit and the biker scene.
Now I'm worried about Avengers: End Game, if the CM defeats thanos or has more screen time than the original cast, I'll never spend money again to see another marvel movie.… Expand

Basically what happens when you try to make a movie about a "strong female protagonist" rather than making a movie that has a "strong female protagonist".

Brie Larson is Racist, Sexist, Ignorant &Oh boy were do I start... First of all if this Captain Marvel bit*h defeats thanos in the End Game then I am done with marvel. If you Love Marvel then just pretend this movie doesn't exists. Brie Larson is Racist, Sexist, Ignorant & narcissist. She hates white males. I would rather have a good movie than SJW Bull-Sh*t, I mean why ruin a movie for SJW. This movie was less like Captain Marvel and more like Captain MEH-WELL. This movie has kinda bad script/story telling. If we compare her with wonder woman on scale of 1 to 10 then Wonder woman is 10 and captain marvel is 3, with respect to her acting, looks and story. Instead of Brie Larson they should have casted someone else for this character like Charlize Theron or Kate Beckinsale or Anne Hathaway or any hot actress, Just by casting hot actress alone would have made this movie great, Brie Larson has got no curves, she looks like piece of sh!t without expressions. I am not saying it's worst movie ever made in Hollywood but it's worst MCU movie, although this movie has its own moments. She didn't earned her powers, she got it for free. Also Brie Larson is Men hater, and her personal views aside she did really bad acting in the movie. And as Kevin Feige said she is the most powerful superhero in MCU.. Trust me this movie has no evidence to support that argument. I see Thor, Doctor Strange & Scarlett Witch easily defeat her. As all of them seem more powerful than her. Doctor Strange will teleport her somewhere far. And Thor will teleport himself if needed but I think he can fight her because he could easily withstand force of entire star in infinity war and he could take the attack of all 6 infinity stones and still nothing happened to him. And Scarlett Witch can easily fight with her neck to neck without falling apart. Lastly I would say Dear Marvel, What in the name of SJW have you done. We must sign petition for recasting. We need hotter actress instead of this Expression-less Brie Larson, So if we get bored with the movie then we can at least watch the actress. 1st 10 years were great under Captain America, Next 10 years with lead role of Captain Marvel... Not a fu*king chance... At least give us hotter actress. Its Funny How Marvel can fire James Gunn and keep Brie Larson. Captain Marvel is as powerful as Thanos. Thanos killed half of all life, Brie Larson killed half of Marvels profits.… Expand

I saw this movie expecting it to be just average, and I was still disappointed. It could have been done on Marvel's auto-pilot script writer, had nothing stand out and it would have at least been forgivable at that point. However, that wasI saw this movie expecting it to be just average, and I was still disappointed. It could have been done on Marvel's auto-pilot script writer, had nothing stand out and it would have at least been forgivable at that point. However, that was not the case. There are multiple plot holes introduced into the greater Marvel universe now as a result of events in this movie. Completely unnecessary ones at that. Rather than rant about what I disliked specifically, here are some pros & cons.

Pros -
Nick Fury (Always good)
Jude Law (He was OK)

Cons -
Brie Larson. Captain Marvel's character was completely flat, nothing interesting about her as a person whatsoever. They could have cast almost anyone else and it would have been better. I've never disliked her in other movies, but she just really fell short here. At first I thought maybe the writing for her was just not great, but I was able to picture black-widow or scarlet witch saying the same things and coming across much better.

Plot holes. I'd rather not list them specifically for the sake of spoilers, but they are numerous and significant.

Over-the-top pandering. The SJW vs. anti-SJW stuff aside, there were just too many moments in this movie that are just not realistic to how normal people behave that were inserted just for the sake of what was clearly their agenda for the movie as a whole. The song "Just a girl" was completely out of place in the last fight scene as well, especially since there were heavy stakes at that moment. It was just silly. Awful CGI at time. Most of the CGI was great, as is standard for a marvel movie, but anytime Captain Marvel went full CGI, it was terrible. There was also a scene where they enter zero-G and her hair floats that looks atrocious.

Argh.. I'm seriously worried about Endgame as a result of this movie. Hopefully that "2 cuts" rumor turns out to be true and they use the second one.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Rotten Tomatoes DELETED my earlier review so I thought I'd write it on a legitimate movie review site instead to get the message out there. Thank you Metacritic for not bending backwards to these people. REVIEW ---

The Good -90's era as I am a 90's kid
-Good soundtrack
-Effects The Bad

-Actress is miscast
-No emotional rewards
-Disrespectful to MCU

The Outcome

The cons outweigh the pros, honestly... I went in with an open mind. But now? Seriously? I am very worried about Endgame. I went from super excited to anxiety mode after watching this. I don't know the business decision was to show such a last minute shoehorn right before the big Finale was but it's not looking good. I will say if Captain Marvel takes down Thanos? I think we will have a real civil war out in the streets!

First off... Nick Fury. My God... character ruined. Scratched by a cat!? That goofy acting? Almost like a completely new character. Honestly, they ruined his character here. He is a joke character basically. Secondly... Carol Danvers. What in holy hell...? Here's how it is. No memory? Ok. Acts wooden. Understandable. After memories? STILL THE SAME WOOD! Horribly miscast she acts like she doesn't want to be there, lines are delivered as if... Terminator's T-1000 seriously has more emotion delivered and that's saying something. BOR-ING and I don't mean to be harsh to the actress, but... no connection. Captain Marvel has zero personality and it's sad. First MCU movie IMO where character development is non-existent. Thirdly, this is just... weird. Skrulls. They are treated... as illegal aliens. As REFUGEES. This movie is PLAGUED with propaganda and I tried to push all of that crap OUT but it's there and it's literally shoved down your throat. And when while you're choking on it, they cram it down harder and shove MORE down your throat. It didn't feel like a movie more like a documentary or something you'd show children but use colorful characters to explain about gender, race, borders etc. it had me rolling my eyes so much I now have involuntary eye spasms. Music, as I said was great - HOWEVER... they managed to messed that up too. One particular fight scene plays I'm just a girl. So out of place, so confusing, so cringe worthy and misguided here. We get it, she's a woman. Big deal? It's amazing they green light this movie right before the big finale, and CM is supposed to be the new face of MCU? And the savior in Endgame? Oh man, I've never went from... Super excited and pumped to extremely worried in such a short time. I went from Day 1 Endgame to.. wait and see what others are saying if CM doesn't ruin it, then I'll go. Marvel let me down. I feel, not angry, but sad.

It's literally depressing how things are shaping up to be, if this is an indication of the future, after Endgame I want no part of it.

For context: the film was released amid a flurry of bad press and bad predictions as a result of Brie Larsen's disgusting statements. Following this there's been a flurry of press to cover it up and cast negative reviews in a bad light, referring to them as "trolls" to justify mass removals. This is nothing short of Orwellian. Brie performed as blandly as expected and seems more fit for a role on a CW show, not a lead actress role in a Marvel hero film. It's truly a disgrace. Of all the competent talent, this slow-paced self-aggrandizing product is what Marvel churned out. This is a sad day for Marvel fans.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Too much nonsense in this film, the generic all powerful being that can't be hurt by anyone or anything aside, some of the crap they pulled off here really ruins the continuity of the past 10yrs of marvel films and she's apparantly the new face of MCU going forward?? the fact my theater was not full would speak otherwise, I've never been to an openeing of a marvel film where the theater and auditoriums were not packed, for Captain Marvel however, there were too many empty seats.
The problem with the movies is just the forced aspects of it's political messages which they are not shy from shoving in your face whatsoever and it gets real stale after the first 10 times of hearing, I'm better than you at xyz "cause i'm a chick"
some people are saying this film is getting "hate" because its lead by a female...yet Alita battle angel is literally an badass female killing machine and the audience score for that is in the high 90's, WW could basically be the poster child for women and her film and audience score was amazing. So you're telling me the same men who loved those female lead movies are now hating on this simply because the lead is a female!? grow up, the film just isn't good and the actress is not likable.
Spoilers ahead...

one of the dumbest things for me was the fact that they explain how fury lost his eye in the MCU...to the cat in the captain marvel film...SMDH
and in end credits she shows up like a troll asking where Fury is in the current MCU avengers universe...… Expand

So, this isn't a good movie and is ruined by feminist agenda. I hope all the manginas and feminist are happy. They are too busy blaming men for their problems, but use technology made by men to do so.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Brie Larson is horribly miscast, her attempts at being "spunky" feel awkward, forced and unlikable. Her playfulness feels aggressive and defensive instead of innocent. A part of it - but not all - is her face. I think she has a very unfortunate facial structure that just doesn't really allow her to carry this kind of "high status female"/vamp charisma the role would require, and her acting does not come close to compensating for it either, with her mostly seeming like her real life self that can't find the balance between genuine banter and arrogance, usually trending towards the latter.

The feminism stuff (including the marketing) annoys, the jabs at immigration - while sacrificing the source material - annoy as well (which is basically the entire storyline), her powers feel very unearned within the context of the MCU and also aren't properly explained. In particular, humans aren't supposed to be able to withstand the power of an Infinity Stone. I guess a lot of it could be more forgivable if it was a completely standalone movie in its own universe, but that's not what it is and not what it is marketed as either.

I admit it's not as bad as I expected - my expectations were indeed extremely low. The movie execution still shows baseline competence that I guess you can expect from a Disney production, it's not a complete disaster in every way like Ghostbusters 2016 was. They likely have so many experienced people in the technical department that even some flaws in the story, acting and direction cannot throw it off. The cinematography seemed okay to me, but I'd have to see it again. Incidentally, that's the one part they didn't diversity-hire a woman for. But it was still not good at all in the end. I suppose a good analogy is The Last Jedi, which had very related flaws, but still was nice to watch due to Disney's technical competence.… Expand

ANewPersonMar 8, 2019

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Definitely one of the weakest entries into the Marvel universe. I would rank it somewhere near Thor 1, but that movie at least had Thor, who is a good character in it. My biggest fear after seeing it is that this could really damage the outcome of Endgame.

If not for the supporting actors in this movie, it would have been a total loss. Samuel L. Jackson is great, as usual and Ben Mendelsohn has some good moments. Brie Larson just comes across as flat and irritating in most scenes (And no, I'm not saying that because of all the political stuff). All of the other Marvel characters have their "thing"; Captain America is selfless and honorable, Thor is kind of conceited and funny because of that & Tony Stark is sarcastic and smart. Captain Marvel is just Brie Larson playing herself in a Captain Marvel suit.

As for the plot, I found it disjointed and mostly boring for the first 75%, but it did manage to pull itself together towards the end and wasn't completely dissatisfying. That said, there are numerous wrenches being thrown into the "lore" that has already been established in previous movies and in the comic book stories that made me like it less and less the more I think about it. I.E., the original Captain Marvel was a man named "Walter Lawson", now that character is gender-swapped into "Wendy Lawson", who never had any sort of power in this timeline. It's just an odd choice. You also have the Tesseract somehow getting into Lawson's hands even though we know that Tony Stark's father had it last. I'm not the type of person who minds a small amount of pandering occasionally, but this movie did cross the line multiple times. There are many scenes from Captain Marvel's life that all revolve around men telling her she can't do something. In the specific scenarios that they show, that just wouldn't happen unless she was somehow surrounded by absolute monsters her whole life. It's just silly. Not to mention the final fight scene blaring "Just a girl" the entire time. It's just too heavy-handed. No group of soldiers would watch a female trainee fall 15-30 feet off a rope course and land on her back, then just laugh at her for no other reason than "She's a girl". That's not reality.

I also very much dislike that Captain Marvel's power is so over the top. She destroys a Kree battleship just by running into it. Fighter ships bounce off of her without her even intending to destroy them. It has the potential to absolutely ruin the next Infinity War movie. I understand that she is very powerful, but this is just too much. The CGI in this movie was also very bad in several scenes.

Overall, I would give this maybe a 2 or 3 out of 10. Avoid until it hits Netflix if possible.… Expand

Maybe because of the perceived political pandering ("Captain SJW" - LOL, neckbeards are funny). I honestly enjoyed this MCU flick more than Iron Man 2, Thor: The Dark World, and Ant Man & The Wasp, all of which seem highly negligible to the MCU in comparison to this entry. The movie had a fun sci-fi vibe with a retro 90's feel. Lots of hilarious punchlines, and some great supporting roles.
Was Brie Larson the best actress for the part? That's the question burning everyone's mind as they venture to the cinema for this female-led adventure, which is a first in the Marvel universe. I feel that someone better COULD have been chosen but it's always hard to say exactly who. Comic book fans have a grandiose vision of their favorite heroes built up in their minds and it's literally impossible to appeal to everyone's taste. I can certainly imagine actresses who would be WORSE at this role, but it's a real head-scratcher to think about who might actually do BETTER. More than likely a relatively unknown actress would've been the only choice left, but that's obviously not a gamble that a major film studio would be willing to take.
With that being said I still feel Brie handled the role pretty well. I had low expectations going in, and her snarky attitude is almost too much to take in at times, but she made the performance convincing enough for me to suspend my imagination.
Aside from the controversy over the lead actress and the stupid political debate (I'm genuinely sick of politics infecting every aspect of our society... movies are just supposed to be fun), the film was just a fun ride from start to finish. It was truly epic seeing Captain Marvel in her full glory tearing everything apart. Sure, it might not rank up there with some of the better films in the MCU but it's definitely a solid entry and it has me hyped up for Avengers: Endgame now.… Expand

First of all, Brie Larson as Captain Marvel is good. In a few scenes, it looked like she was giving it her all in that performance while in others it seemed as if she was only phoning it in. That can be said about a few of the others.First of all, Brie Larson as Captain Marvel is good. In a few scenes, it looked like she was giving it her all in that performance while in others it seemed as if she was only phoning it in. That can be said about a few of the others. Especially Jude Law, who plays Yon-Rog, who I’ve seen in other roles and is captivating in it. But this role just didn’t seem to fit him that well. Really the only person I can say did a good job was Ben Mendelsohn, who plays Talos. Every scene that he’s in he gives it his all and you can easily tell he is comfortable in this role. This has nothing to do with the movie but I just loved Goose the cat. But speaking of Goose when they used a real cat actor it was great but when they switched it out and made him CGI it looked terrible. I feel like they blew their entire budget on different scenes and had to just find a clichéd cat on the internet. I only say this because all of the scenery in every scene is amazing. The cinematography is outstanding in this film. The pacing in this film was weird and just off. The film is two hours and four minutes but it feels like two hours and forty minutes. One thing that bugged me but also I was happy about was all the answers we got for other Marvel movies. This film has plot twists but they are so obvious that even a kid could figure them out before they are revealed. Due to this film taking place in 1995 I feel bad for all the kids who won’t understand the references the movie is making. But the cultured ones like me will get them. Finally, there are two end credits scenes but really just stay for the first one. In the end, Captain Marvel isn’t the worst Marvel movie but it also isn’t the best. I definitely recommend watching in 3D.… Expand

Due to all the controversy around Captain Marvel, the bad PR, the bigotry of Brie Larson, I was not going into this movie expecting it to be great, hell, I didn't expect it to be good. I did have faith that Marvel, despite this, could make itDue to all the controversy around Captain Marvel, the bad PR, the bigotry of Brie Larson, I was not going into this movie expecting it to be great, hell, I didn't expect it to be good. I did have faith that Marvel, despite this, could make it alright though, so I went in expecting it would get a 5, MAYBE a 6 out of 10. I was very disappointed.

Brie Larson never seemed to embody the character she was acting. When I watch Iron Man, I see Tony Stark and not RDJ. When I watch the Avengers I see Black Widow, not SJ. When I watched Captain Marvel I never saw Captain Marvel, it was always Brie Larson trying to act. She never once truly embodied her character.

And I am going to TRY to ignore all the changes made from the comic book version, as other movies have made changes as well (but none as much as this horrid movie).

But now I am going to get into spoiler territory.

To make matters worse, Captain Marvel was the closest thing to a Mary Sue that you can get without having a Mary Sue. Whenever there was a need for her to improve it never seemed like she struggled and got better, it seemed like she just powered up for no good reason. Oh, she needs more power, well now she can use al her power without the limiter! Oh, she is falling, potentially to her death? Now she can fly and do so pretty damn well.

Furthermore, the story just sucked. Anyone that watched Guardians of the Galaxy or Agents of SHIELD knows that the Kree are not good guys, so the whole "twist" that they aren't good guys was pointless. The plot was cliched as well, falling into the same old tropes without any originality. Furthermore, there were plot points that seemed to either make no sense or even contradict what we know from previous entries in the MCU.

And the whole backstory of hers where she was talked down to over and over again for being a girl was really forced and seemed entirely political, which really caused me to hate this movie even more, especially with some of Brie Larson's comments about white men.

When I saw the early access critics talking good about the movie (which all early access critics do, whether a movie is good or not) and focusing on the cat, I thought that was a joke, but no, the interactions with Fury and the cat were the only parts of the movie I truly can say I enjoyed.

So, acting was horrible, plot was cliched and seemed to ignore the rest of the MCU, etc.

I can only give this movie, at best, 2.5/10, but since I have to round it I am choosing to round down to 2.

I am not surprised by the rumors of other Marvel actors being disappointed in Brie and Captain Marvel, and my only hope is that there is enough time before Endgame to ensure that the movie is not ruined by this awful entry.… Expand

storyline. I wasn't able to relate with captain marvel as if the character herself wasn't brought

keeping me entertained.
After sitting through for almost a 2 hour movie, i was still puzzled and a little confused on
captain marvel's personality. Lots of time i find her lack of expression and stoic face unnatural.
I kid you not, i was under the impression that captain marvel was for the most parts constantly
'aware' of the camera presence while shooting if you know what i mean. If any case, her
expression left me feeling odd.
On a side note, i did like some humor brought by the film such as the cat. Action however was
not as CG packed like other recent marvel movies. Was it because this is set in a retro time?
I'm unclear.. The action part wasn't exciting to keep my adrenaline pumping. Nevertheless, the
movie is still a decent one but not great.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. BL really lacked charisma in this movie. When I first saw Iron Man, I could not imagine anyone else playing TS. When I first saw Thor I couldn't fathom another actor other than CH playing the Norse warrior. Same with Cap, and every other amazing casting choice. But in this movie, I could easily think of 5 actresses who could've embodied the role as well or better. As for the first half of the movie--it's so darkly lit I couldn't make out a lot of detail. Her story arc of trying to find and remember her identity seemed disjointed and jangly. The problem with this plot device occurred to me half way through: WE ALREADY KNOW WHO SHE IS. SO, we didn't go on the journey with her.
At the end, she finally realizes she is SUPER, SUPER powered and invincible and can breathe in space and can destroy starships by flying through them and astonishingly doesn't destroy the rest of the bad guys and faces no real threat. Thus, she literally has no where to go because not only has she broken the glass ceiling, she apparently has reached the ceiling of her potential all in one movie. I felt that the weight of expectations was too great, the pillars all broke and the movie crashed in under the gravity of its own promise. But maybe I'll like it more on Blue Ray. As far as shoehorning her into End Game, I GENUINELY HOPE THEY DON"T EVEN THINK ABOUT LETTING HER SAVE THE DAY. The only ones who should avenge Thanos are the AVENGERS, AND NO ONE ELSE.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ojito que van spoilers...
Bien, a lo que nos toca. Desde hace ya algunos días he venido escuchando y leyendo críticas de esta película, no quería creerlas pero tenían razón. La película es demasiado genérica, creo que la aparición de Collson fue lo único que realmente me llamó la atención y el homenaje a Stan fue lo unico que me gustó.
Yo no sé mucho del universo marvel; pero que los skrulls solo buscasen ser rescatados me pareció demasiado predecible, no me presenta algo que me mantenga al borde de la silla. Vamos, realmente solo quería saber como perdió el ojo Fury y hasta eso fue absurdo, en películas anteriores el dijo: La última vez que confié en alguien, perdí un ojo. Supuse que Carol, El Skrull (no recuerdo el nombre) o alguien cercano lo haría, jamás de los jamases pensé que sería el gato, y jugando al final de la película; eso fue un insulto muy grande. En fin, no deja nada establecido para End Game ni es relevante, supongo planean una secuela luchando contra los Kree pero me presenta la duda de como será. Se presenta a Ronan como el lider Kree y los guardianes ya lo vencieron, entonces no logro ubicar en que momento es que Carol va a luchar contra él sin presentar un problema argumental con las películas de los guardianes.
En aspecto técnicos no es mala; pero no destaca ni es visualmente atractiva. Concluyo, no es buena, si la van a ver que sea en DVD o en día de descuento porque no es ni relevante ni lo suficientemente entretenida como para un plan de fin de semana en pareja ni con los niños.… Expand

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?… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Captain Average:*Contains Spoilers*

This movie suffers from a lack of character development and a lackluster performance by Brie Larson. I feel the feminist agenda was over blown by the media, while there are a lot of feminist undertones in the movie the only one that really takes you out of the movie is the musical score, you have TLC, Spice Girls, No Doubt, Garbage and many more female bands which definitely makes it feel forced in that aspect. I don't think any of this would've been an issue if Larson and the media didn't tout the movie as such. I'm pretty sure Brie Larson forgot how to act in this movie, she's rigid, looks cold and disinterested and moves extremely stiff in the majority of the movie. This is distracting because I became fixated on her posture and facial expressions (or lack thereof) because I wanted to see emotions when situations would get thrown at her. Larson handled every adversity by standing up, after getting knocked down numerous times, giving the same "blue steel" look and overcame it. Her best scenes were when she and Jackson were playing off each other and they actually looked like they wanted to be in the movie.

This lackluster performance by Larson creates the biggest fault in the whole movie. Her lack of any emotion, facial or body, creates a problem when you see her dealing with her past and interactions with other characters including her enemies. I never could feel empathy towards her character, I couldn't feel what she was going through when she kept watching her role model die in dreams and even when she finally remembered how it all happened. The issue with her not showing any emotion is I never see that character grow and I might as well have been watching a terminator in the role of Marvel. This movie tells you Marvel is a strong woman by standing up multiple times after being told she couldn't do it (I think every time was by a man)and having that "blue steel" look on her face and then doing it. Without giving Marvel any emotions her character is never seen as weak, frustrated, mad or sad there's nothing to connect the audience to and it really kills the whole movie because as an audience member, how am I or anyone supposed to root or feel excited when we're watching and not feeling any dread of how is she going to get through this when you know exactly what she's going to do: stand up, give that blank expression and win.

I don't feel that overall this movie is bad, it's average with it's story and it needed more goose killing baddies for sure. The supporting cast with Jackson and Mendelson make up for quite a lot of flaws. Fighting was average at best as well as were most of the action scenes, I do think that the best fight scene was at the beginning with Vers and Rogg sparring. The story behind Jackson losing his eye and how he came up with the name Avengers was extremely disrespectful to Fury's character and the rest of the Avengers that have made this universe what it is today. This movie added little to the overall Infinity story and you could just feel this character was forced into the MCU for whatever reason and is trying to fill a few plot holes. If you are wanting to know how it ties into Endgame: she answers the "communicator" and meets up with the Avengers that are left. You're welcome as I just saved you 10-15 bucks on a ticket. I would not be at all surprised if this movie is on Netflix in 3 months.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Strengths: Supporting Cast even if one dimensional, CGI, Short Run Time.

Weaknesses: Lead character, tired out tropes, and scattered and unfocused story.

This movie I tried to come in with a blank slate ignoring everything surrounding it. it goes for a phase 1 origin story coming off more as an Incredible hulk rather than Iron Man. As 80s nostalgia gives way to the 90s it does a great summary of all that makes. But like a blender mixing every ingredient it stuff in it all boils down to a bland liquid. The supporting cast does there best with what they are given, however it's script doesn't allow any to escape their niche. As marvel is on a time table for their phase 4 there is not many opportunities for them to second guess their choices. However I do want to make a recommendation that its sister studio Lucasfilm did "Slow Down". Take the time to make a good product, you have been running strong for 10 years and you need to pace it now. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Also the mystique of certain characters should not be explained if you cannot come up with a satisfying answer. For awhile most thought Nick Fury lost sight in his eye due to something Robert Redford's character in Winter Soldier. Nope it had to be the cat.

Had a good time watching this. I'd compare this the most to the first Captain America in that is a good balance of plot, action, and comedy. This film is surprisingly funny, which the trailers don't reveal. This is a buddy cop/road trip movieHad a good time watching this. I'd compare this the most to the first Captain America in that is a good balance of plot, action, and comedy. This film is surprisingly funny, which the trailers don't reveal. This is a buddy cop/road trip movie featuring interplay between Captain Marvel and Nick Fury.

Captain Marvel is likable enough, both confident and charming. Alison Brie does well in the role whenever it comes to the lighthearted bits. However, there are a couple times during the serious/expositional parts where she felt a bit wooden. It doesn't help that her tone of voice doesn't shift much.

Although, Nick Fury has been a regular of the Marvel films for a while, it's nice to see him finely be a lead character. Jackson seems to be having a lot of fun playing a younger, looser Fury (this takes place during the 90's).

Also a big fan of Ben Mendelsson as Talos, leader of a squad of the shapeshifting enemy race the Skrulls. I was afraid the actor was being typecasted in his villain roles recently, but this character is a total 180 of his previous ones. He's funny and one of the biggest people persons of the MCU villains.

Maintains the Marvel spectacle of visuals and action. They use computer graphics to make Jackson look younger and they have really perfected the technology. You only notice the CGI if you're looking for it. The graphics for Coulson aren't quite as seamless. I'm guessing they didn't put as much effort into him as he isn't in this as much. The movie is a very typical Marvel movie. It doesn't establish it's own tone like the likes of Guardians of the Galaxy or Black Panther. Suffers from trying to stuff too much plot and characters in. Marvel's past and relationships are given short shrift. More time should've been devoted to developing the characters of Marvel's best friend and the alien military unit she starts out as a part of.

They explain the cause of a certain event/line in a future Marvel movie but by trying to make a joke out of it. I did not like that at all. Robbed the seriousness of that moment and the attempt to play against expectations and the need for movie prequels to explain every little thing is just frustratingly predictable.

Ever since the Kree first appeared in Guardians of the Galaxy, I've been waiting to see them adapt the Kree Intelligence who has always had a unique design. We finally get it and sadly the directors/writers just went with the trodden entity appears as someone the person knows routine.

Yeah, this isn't the most standout of the films, but I still got a lot of enjoyment out of this.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie just felt empty. The Script was not written well. Carol Danvers doesn't develop as a character like a Captain America or a Black Widow. How she acts, talks at the beginning of the movie it is how it ends. There is no stability in the character throughout the movie, she just one lines, relationships that she has on earth feel 'akward', 'forced', 'weird', and she becomes the most powerful avenger somehow. It feels like those movies that are long and you later try to remember how/ why is this movie so long. There are quite some good concepts in this movie (Carson being a Skrull at the beginning) but ultimately it could have been better executed (Especially how Nick Fury lost his eye). This movie puts great pressure on the Russo Brothers. Captain Marvel better not one-punch Thanos. Hopefully, the Russo Brothers will 'develop' this character rightly in the future.… Expand

The movie attempts to establish Captain MarvelWell Marvel finally messed up. I have seen all MCU movies from one to three times each in the theater. I wanted this movie to be good. I though that maybe it's just the marketing. Well it's not. The movie attempts to establish Captain Marvel as the biggest and strongest hero in the MCU and falls flat on it's face. If she is to take over for Tony Stark and Steven Rogers I am genuinely concerned for the future of the MCU. Brie Larson lacks Robert Downey Jr.'s natural charisma and Chris Evans's charm.

The only good thing about this mess is the Stan Lee tribute and Samuel L. Jackson is as good as always. And Ironically for a "girl power" movie the men steal the show. Jude Law and Samuel L. Jackson put Larson to shame.

This movie is very unfaithful to the source material on the level of Green Lantern. Brie Larson is horribly miscast. She has zero range and at best a smug demeanor. Someone of the caliber of Emily Blunt would have been a much better fit. The great friendship the two ladies share is just not believable and the dialogue after Carol goes missing is cheesy at best. The Skrulls are wasted. The Skrull invasion is one of the most interesting stories in Marvel comics and now that door is shut forever. The way Nick Furry lost his eye is just ridiculous. And the way the Avengers got the name is just pure cringe. All white man in her past tell her to quit because she is a girl. Mar-Vell, the original Captain Marvel, is gender swapped to be a woman. At first she is held back and by the end of the movie she is the equivalent of Superman. Carol Danvers has NEVER had this much power.

The claim that she is the first female super hero is absurd, as if Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow, Wlizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch and Evangeline Lilly's Wasp don't exist in the MCU. The marketing pushed this as a feminist movie and it is at the expense of story and character development.

TLTR: Skip it. If you are a normal movie fan you will be bored. If you are a comic book fan you will be foaming at the mouth… Expand

The "buddy comedy" element often fell flat. Larson's acting and persona also often seemed a bit flat. The action and combat scenes were par for the course, and often relied on the hackneyed "frame the shot too close and edit it too fast to see what's happening, so as to disguise the otherwise boring choreography" we see too often in movies.

On the whole, this just wasn't up to Marvel standards. It was ok, but nothing special.… Expand

A film that doesn't respect that audience's intelligence, with a wildly incoherent narrative spun via a bland script, uninspired and overly edited action scenes, a wildly incoherent and poorly portrayed protagonist whose plank-like expression inspires no pathos whatsoever, and a jumble of mixed lore that not only clashes with what we already know of the MCU and reeks of retconning, with a sort of "oops, we forgot to introduce this character earlier, but they're super important and great at everything and somehow missing during the last 20-odd movies, so here they are, I guess?!" vibe to the whole charade. Mendelsohn and Law are the only ones who get out of this scot-free. There's something approaching the uncanny valley with how Samuel L. Jackson has been de-aged. I'm not exactly jazzed thinking about how much of the film's budget went into that effect, when they could have spent it actually trying with the weak action scenes. I mean, hello?! Infinity War and Black Panther both made over a billion dollars! They had time to do reshoots and rewrites, surely! There's no excuse for poor action, weak acting, or lazy storytelling in a major Marvel movie going forward. I'll be honest - the moment I saw that they were using the late Stan Lee's (RIP) Twitter account to promote this film was the moment I turned against this film. I felt disgusted for giving these corporate hacks my money and cheated that the man-hating Larson's character will be the new face of the MCU going forward. Whatever happened to all the characters we invested so much time and love in? Whatever happened to treating your fans with respect?

I'm going to see Endgame for sure, but after that, I don't know anymore... I'm getting burned out on these cookie-cutter films.… Expand

Brie Larson portrayed the role of Captain Marvel in an incredible way. I really felt connected to the character. I'm pretty excited to see her role in Endgame. I also loved Samuel's performance to Nick Fury, bringing the soft side of Nick, but also the badass we know him for. The supporting cast did a great job too. I just hoped they had more scenes in the film were we could've explored them more. The action scenes are well choreographed. The score is well-composed. The visual effects are amazing, except when Carol unlocked her full power. Some scenes weren't edited in the best way. But still, she was cool! I hoped that the battles scenes were longer, cuz I really enjoyed them. Carol's past is told in a clever way. I just hoped they focused on the Kree-Skrull war more. The plot included a lot of surprises. Absolutely loved the cat and Ben Mendelsohn as Talos. Overall, it's a pretty well-made movie with a lot of humor.

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.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This being the next instalment of the MCU juggernaut and nestling between the cheeks of probably my most anticipated movies of the last 5 years infinity war and endgame and considering the post credit scene from infinity war, there was absolutely no way I would miss out on this movie, bad marketing or no bad marketing.

Having said that, this was another franchise like guardians and black panther that I had absolutely no familiarity with. So guardians I openly derided the concept of a talking racoon and tree bloke. Guardians ended up winning me over with one trailer and becoming my top 3 MCU films after seeing it. Black panther turned out to be a solid, almost sci fi concept with one of the best villains from the franchise just because killmonger’s motivations were so woven into the premise and made sense in todays society. In other words guardians propped up by some top character interactions, settings, dialogue and character arcs and BP propped up with one of the MCU’s best villains tied to a solid concept. In both of those cases I ended up being turned around from either a position of not caring or a position of being biast toward hating to loving those films. Therefore over the past few months I was looking at captain marvel with the same eye, would this be the next marvel franchise to win me over? Not really. There were a few bits including the buzzword "be the best 'you' you can be" right at the start and some silliness throughout. it was saved in places by sam jackson and some connective tissue to the rest of the mcu. it had a post credit scene that made me slightly less excited if that is possible for endgame. This film mostly ambles along for most of it. Danvers life is presented in some disconnected flashbacks of photos and stuff. The main thing though is Brie Larson is just not one of those inspired pieces of casting like RDJ as iron man or Ryan Reynolds as deadpool. Its because Captain marvel doesn’t have quantifiable character traits to say Brie acted said traits well enough or memorably enough to point to a good performance. Captain marvel is basically on screen for some time and that is about it. Its not a memorable character its not a particularly memorable movie. The story overall is ok. I was interested to see Nick fury’s kind of origin movie and to be fair I got that which is where my positive points come from. Cat was good. Nirvana in the soundtrack was good. Like 2 jokes in it.

The parts I liked were that this set up the kree special forces with one familiar face Djimon Hounsou and ronan the accuser. So the skrull were set up to be the antagonists for this film yet we recognise the accusers and the motley character as an antagonist from guardians which leaves us wondering how they’re the good guys in CM. The trailers presented an actually quite boring premise of the skrulls being injected into society. CM actually flips this on its head halfway through where the kree are setting CM up. The Skrull are in fact the good guys. Which again I rate as some of the positive points. All this to say though we end up with ronan the accuser and jude law as bad guys.

So here we are at the end of the whole set up. Brie gets the ultimate powers of CM and starts to kick ass. Captain marvel shows that she can basically do anything takes out all sorts of nukes from the dark aster looking ships etc etc. but wait what is this CM suddenly stops. Why is this? Kryptonite? Conciensce? Any of the morality touted by the characters? No she stops because in their infinite wisdom, they CAN’T kill ronan, we know he dies in guardians, we know he survives over a kree empire that is down on its luck not in a prequel 90’s movie so CM just has to stop and throw out a BS line and let him go. Whats more any sequel is very likely to be set where CM liberates the Kree homeworld from the AI and Ronan (plus plot armour) must survive. In other words the much touted most powerful character in the MCU is defeated by shonky prequel plotting and basically robbing any sense of urgency or stakes from the story. Any sort of significance or coolness from her powers. Why does she not kill Jude law ‘I don’t have anything to prove to you’. I suppose those 5 minutes that would have been a fight scene are rewarded back to us for sitting through the film. yeah when all’s said and done cpt marvel was like at best a 6/10 film. The critics have said their piece and agreed with that, the audience seems to be saying their piece and agreeing with that. I honestly can’t believe people are dying on the hill for this movie based on hype marketing, ripping down review sites defending it. At the end of the day we’re not talking about like 12 years a slave or even another black panther.… Expand

Now before people jump on me and say im a sexist or I don't know what I am talking about just be aware that I am an owner of a comic book store and I live and breathe comics, my expectations on how a superhero film is supposed to be is set rather high. For those who don't know who Captain Marvel is or how she's supposed to be the closest thing to describe her is she is more or less Superman with Green Lanterns personality or Shazam (for obvious reasons).

Still worse were the highly predictable plot points and dialogue... though I was surprised (and disappointed) of their torpedoing of future Skrull story lines... all in all a disappointment despite a few smirk inducing jokes that were probably improvised by Jackson.
