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.


2/10 GOOD - Score, CG Effects

BAD - Brie miscasted, Disrespects the MCU and its fans, Overload Propaganda messaging.

Not sure why women needs to be empowered by every TV/movie these day, unless they are just that weak. This movie is boring and the first part isn't terrible but just less boring. Parts of it make no sense and then the feminist take over completely so they can over power men and blame them for everything. I wonder if these over paid actors think normal people believe this mess. Women leads are find and dandy. but this never ending agenda that has taken over movies/tv is ignorant. 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. I have no plans on giving these people my money and good luck with your agenda in your own little heads, while the rest of the people live in the real world. By the way, when skinny weak arm women slap and knock men down, it looks just as dumb as your agenda. Expand

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

A hero impossible for any mere human to relate to. Tony Stark, Thor, Dr. Strange had to struggle with ego or had to be humbled but battled through it. Scarlet Witch had to see the error of her ways that revenge was not the solution. These "heroes" became larger than life because they inspire us to better OURSELVES and not to overpower other people. This movie doesn't benefit the story that took 10 years to make and I certainly think that MCU didn't just took 10 years laying the groundwork and foundation just to put this new character above all the other characters that has earned our respect through all this time.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Garbage. The movie itself is far from MCU standards. The plot is weak, merely a side piece to give us a savior for End Game. Following the comic's lead, we have the mediocre bore Carol Danvers version of Captain Marvel; no character arc, no charisma, over-powered, and over-shadowed by a cat. And don't go looking for a tie-in to Avengers 4. You can completely skip this one if you're worried about missing anything for End Game. Find a better writer and a lead more fitting of a superhero, then maybe you'd have a worthy entry into the MCU... Expand

Much of the acting felt forced and it almost seemed like they didn't want to be there, especially the actors portraying the overthetop misogynists; and those scenes were forced in for sure. Captain Marvel is the Marvel Comics leader in virtue signaling and all round SJW terrorist. Taking this character in her current incarnation to the big screen spells nothing but trouble as seen by the movie itself. Thank Stan that they didn't get as bad as the comics.

The pacing is pretty bad too. I sat there kinda scratching my head as to why many choices were made in where to go next. On top of that, the action sequences were very meh. We could chalk that up to Carol Manvers being made to be "The strongest character ever" in the MCU. Pretty sure regardless, Thanos could slap her around easily, and I'd pay to see that at this point. The Skrull/Kree war was a big deal in the comics, too bad it wasn't on the big screen. Yet another agenda being forced on the consumer.

Here's the deal, I want a fun movie. I want to be entertained when I go to the theater. I am fine with some things being changed from the comics to make the movie more digestible for the "normies". This is why I love all the other MCU movies. But this movie is just lazy and has no spark. I am scared for Avengers: Endgame now and might just tap out of the MCU altogether if they are really pushing for Captain Marvel to head the next 10 years.

The amount of in your face feminism, and anti-Trump slights was ever present and unnecessary. And the revelation on how Nick Fury lost his eye was lore-busting.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So, Brie Larson will be great as Pinocchio, what with her wooden acting at all. The cat was the best part of the movie, and apparently, Skrulls are good guys now? Also, the soundtrack was great, but I'm Just A Girl was laid over the climactic fight and the tempo and rhythm didn't match what was on screen. At all. And there was a horribly acted and put together flashback montage of "you can't do X, you're just a girl!" I'm super anemic, and I'll cry at the drop of an emotionally manipulative story beat, but not one single tear at this movie. Seriously, unless you want to see the most powerful cat in the MCU, don't just skip, this, avoid it like the plague!

1 point for Goosee!

Until now, the MCU has produced success, film after film after film. Even the films that were poorly received, like Incredible Hulk, Thor Dark World, Iron 2, were actually pretty decent. But, to produce a movie that reads like a Gail Simone Marvel Comic spouting social justice, feminism and trying to lecture me that I'm what's wrong with the world? If I wanted a lecture, I wouldn't pay to go see a movie on it, I'd listen to a lecture from my family.

Captain Marvel shows that whoever wrote and directed this travesty knows nothing about Marvel Comics and the character of Captain Marvel. The character was originally a male superhero, then the character was reinvented as a person of color, now, she's a crusty white woman who wants to lecture the audience.

What pissed me off was that movie depicts Skrulls *NOT* as an alien race bent on dominating the human race but rather they are "illegal immigrants". WTF!!!! Depicting the Skrulls as this way proves that the movie is no more than a two hour propoganda movie for feminism, social justice and antifa.

Only thing that Marvel Studios did was waste two hours of my time and scammed me out of the $5 I paid to see this crap. The movie was simply yawn inducing, boring and unimaginative. Next time? Make an MCU movie that doesn't scream social justice. If this is the future of the MCU, then I'm getting off this ride right now.

She's a very dull performer who brings down the rest of the cast. 2019's Captain Marvel has a very predictable story with a lackluster script. It's bad when Goose the Cat is the best character, but this movie is still not worth spending your hard earned cash on. To anyone who's worried that there's something in the Captain Marvel movie that directly affects Endgame, there is not. You can literally go from Infinity War directly into Endgame without any issues.

The other bad thing about this movie is that it ruins the possibility of a full-out Secret Invasion movie (or at least appears to do so). Save your money and wait until this hits Netflix or until you get a free Redbox rental code after it hits DVD/Blu-Ray. It's not even worth a Black Friday $5 grab bag buy. 1/10: Captain Marvel is not Marvel-ous.

This movie left a bitter taste in my mouth. Brie Larson acting showed no charisma at all. And retconning the foundation of the avengers made me angry.

Her fighting abilities were god awful and the jerky jump cuts didn’t cover it at all. Sam Jackson was good but the de-aging FX was disconcerting since it was for the whole movie. How he lost his eye was absolutely ridiculous. Ronin was completely wasted. The skrulls as the good guys/knock on immigration policy...come on. Some feminazi shots taken. Her being the reason for the Avengers name, Disrespectful. cap marvel just rushed and shoehorned in to this universe that has been great for 10+ yrs. I really hope this doesn’t stain endgame. Rotten tomatoes has completely lost any credibility because of this movie. Worst marvel movie to date. Hopefully this was a one off, if this is a sign of things to come for the MCU then I’m done with it. Expand

Plot
The plot is freaking awful it makes 0 sense she is a complete marry sue through out the entire thing she has no character arc and while some of the messages it sends are ok they are out of place. she is the same person in the beginning as in the end. Some charterers wear legit plot Armour surviving things that make 0 sense at all.
Holes
The tesaract is in the wrong spot. captain Mar vell is a women not a dude, humans pretend like theirs no aliens yet RED SKULL. They pretend they have never seen a hero Captain america, She destroys an accusers ship even though a nova core ravengers and guardian s couldn't stop them. made ronan retreat even though he can changeling thanos, fury looses an eye to a cat??? skrulls are good guys ???

I purposely did not watch an previews or spoilers or youtube videos on this movie because I heard people had said both good and bad things prior to it even releasing. But after watching this movie.... I have to do my first review and say thisI purposely did not watch an previews or spoilers or youtube videos on this movie because I heard people had said both good and bad things prior to it even releasing. But after watching this movie.... I have to do my first review and say this was just terrible.. The humor was so cringe and frankly disgusting. The animation was amazing at times and horrible at times, making me wonder if it was because this film was so rushed to release at the perfect sales date before end game. I say this because the budget for these movies can almost have no limit considering how much they produce from the film and then the future films because of it, and how much they expected to make from this and the hype train behind it, it should have had no problem investing more into this film. Whomever the main actress was in it was just.... not fit for this role... both acting, and now that I mention it, not physically either. Having someone play your double for your "behind shots" is only humiliating when they played the female power thing. Not trying to beat a dead horse and give fire to the flame of "another sexist white man", but even when this actress throws a punch at the old lady... it was like watching my friends daughter throw a baseball.. How can a superhero fighter who fights with her hands and wants us to believe she is so strong, and beat up people with her small hands curled forward, wrist bent, and thrown with the elbow. they couldn't even pay a trainer to help her throw a punch that looked believable. The fight scenes were terrible made except part of one when she had the cuffs on. Her story was the same as anyones 100x over, and they didn't seem to care one bit about showing more interest in it or her as a character, which makes me feel the same. Why should I show any interest in this character? everything about this was boring and poorly done, was rooting for the girl power on this one, but afraid it was very disappointing. The movie as a whole, if you've never seen marvel movies or know the story, was probably more of a 4-5 or so, but I gave it a 1 for the fact that Samuel Jackson still had to put up with this and be in it. I had to show him support with a one star at least Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well i was tired of the SJW thing going on for while and decided to give this movie a go ....watching it online first, to see if i needed to go to the theaters for it. Well was very glad i did not. This movie has nothing memorable about it and everything is so bland and so done and predictable. Brie Larson is as boring actor as the character she portrays. My wall had more expression than her.Her cracking jokes was like so humorless than when she added a smile, it felt like the T1000 trying to smile in T2. At least Arnie was playing a robot and it was funny but here..my word..this woman has no sense of humor. As the movie goes on, you can get the feminist agenda at every corner. Worst of all is how they massacred the origin story of Captain Marvel...a man . As a comic fan i know Carol Danvers is Ms Marvel but we all know Disney would never have that on screen because the current Ms Marvel is a Pakistani in the comics and Disney preaches SJW and equality but when it comes to money and profits, never bank on ethnics in lead cast , surely not for their feminist flagship. Anyway... save your money. Even the end credits have nothing to offer that you don't already know Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Easily the worst MCU movie I have seen to date. The plot was weak and full of holes, the humour felt forced and immature, the CGI was good but for 2 instances, the music was inserted in strange places and the editing was choppy. Larson's acting, in particular, was unconvincing and fake - there was far too much smirking and posturing, and far too little acting. In many instances it felt like I was watching her doing a skit of Captain Marvel on SNL rather than playing a lead role in a multi-million dollar movie. Her entire motivation for fighting also appears to centre around herself - unlike literally all the other Avengers who fight for something bigger than them (protecting their loved ones, freedom, justice, responsibility etc, which is the essence of a hero).

There were plot holes aplenty. She stated that Skrulls can't do photon blasts, so she would know it's a unique power. So then, if she was the only individual able to shoot photon blasts in ALL of Hala/Kree galaxy (indeed, the ONLY ONE we saw who had special powers), why didn't she even question that once? Then she crash-landed on earth, as an alien soldier, and started smirking at the first alien law enforcement officer she saw? Without questioning why this alien was the same biological type as her? And didn't she JUST join the Kree army? Why, then, is she part of a group of "Noble Hero Warriors"? What, if anything, makes her noble or heroic? And why did Nick Fury divulge all that information to an alien soldier at the drop of a dime? He's not exactly so stupid or 'new' to make such an obvious mistake - he's a full bird colonel with years of experience as a spy, so he'd know it wasn't like Vers would know if the information was true or not. And didn't Vers already say Skrulls can assimilate RECENT information? So why all that history into his career? If this was just the writers' attempt to tell us more about Nick Fury, it was lazy as hell.

I also took issue with changing the Skrulls into refugees when the story for a planet-wide shape-shifting invasion held so much more potential for writing and fight scenes. I thought, with brief delight, that it'd be like Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, but nope, it was nowhere close to that.

And there was no "big baddie" - in the "climactic" third act, Ronan shot missiles, which were destroyed in seconds, then sent some fighter ships, which were destroyed in a minute or so, and then he fled. Yon-rogg (armed with a pistol and shield and NO SUPERPOWERS) was taken out with one photon blast after a ridiculous monologue. And not to mention the fact that Vers gets her power from a light-speed engine powered by the Tesseract, which means she should be no more powerful than Scarlet Witch, who is given her powers by the Mind Stone, but this doesn't seem to be the case.

All in all, the movie just felt flat and ultimately, forgettable. I really hope she won't play a significant part in Endgame - just looking at the end credits and seeing the MCU stalwarts' gravitas contrasted with her mediocre, half-mocking performance had me desperately hoping the MCU wouldn't mutilate their final act with this travesty.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Was not planning to watch this movie due to the controversy but as a Marvel fan I had to give it a watch. The movie has great special effects and fight scenes but the actual movie is boring. I was dosing off through the midway point. I remember falling asleep during Boogeyman(2005) and The Trolls movie with my kids (luckily the movie theater sold beer and no I was not intoxicated) I thought Black Panther was just average but it was way more watchable than this. My 7 year old was excited to see this movie and she also lost interest.
Guess they wanted to up Wonder Woman, another crappy movie by making Captain Marvel the most powerful woman alive. They should have went with a male version. Brie tried too hard and failed. She now believes she is the most powerful woman in Hollywood today. I've seen her in Kong and 21 Jump Street and the also sucked. The WTF part of this movie was Fury losing his eye to a freaking cat. This movie was Garbage and no offense to the band Garbage. The highlights of the movie were the songs from Garbage and Nirvana. Until Endgame then, but I expect Brie to stick her face in there as well.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not really sure how people have managed to like it so much, being a die-hard fan, I felt that this was probably the worst Marvel film that I have ever seen. Spoiler Alert.

- The storyline is a bit too predictable, like a Hindi movie. - Captain Marvel just happens to crash on Earth, despite being Eons away.
- Nick Fury trying to act cute and unnaturally sweet to a cat is almost revolting to watch.
- No background on the supreme intelligence.. or the Pegasus project
- At one point, captain marvel decides to change her uniform colour and offers the opportunity to a kid. The kid somehow knows how to operate this tech. The colour that she chooses doesn't seem much like what the girl is wearing at all.
- How did a Kree scientist get her hands on the Tess in the first place?
-And when she did, her motive was to make a light-speed achieving ship for the Skrull? No better ideas? Really?
- Maria's daughter's reaction on seeing Vers is incredibly stupid and mellow.
-A majority of her dialogues and actions are irrelevant.
- An alien cat just happens to be around when all hell is breaking loose at a covert aircraft base.
- Just spits out the Tess in the end credit scene on Fury's desk, wow, what an original storyline.
- Nick Fury looses an eye while trying to pet a cat.. utter crap..
- Ver's friend Maria can (after a bit of tweaking) fly into the space, avoid advanced fighters and survive.
- The mighty Ronan throws a few missiles at the planet but Captain Marvel flips one of them and blows everything (I guess he didn't need the Tess so badly after all).
- Ronan decides to F-off pretty fast
- Jude Law is sent back to his planet so that they can keep hunting the Skrulls (easier way would have been to destroy Kree, but no, how will they make more movies out of it?)
- Captain Marvel got her powers from an engine core blast and the Kree kept her alive to find the core? :O

This movie felt like a by-product and a money spinner than an actual story-line based movie. All in all, it was a Marvel-ous let down

I love the MCU… Unfortunately, this movie has tarnished that…

To me this movie makes no sense, a new (minor) hero appears, made insanely powerful, fights against a weak protagonist, rewriting MCU canon that has been loved by fans for multiple years along the way. All the time showing a broad array of lacklustre CGI, boring forgettable action sequences, and the leading actress is just a wrong cast for a super hero. The main character is a cardboard cut-out of what a hero should be, zero charisma and no idea how to play an MCU superhero. Pity MCU could not get an actress with the charisma and presence of Gal Gadot for their first female lead movie.

What’s most annoying is why must you suddenly change MCU history overnight… why Marvel?

Why would you make Nick Fury appear like some bumbling sidekick? That alone should be a sin, he is a strong leader and was never a follower of anyone... Social politics at play maybe?

Everything aside this is a poor movie by MCU standards, I would put it below Iron Man 2, it really is that bad! Not from a box office $$$ point of view, I am sure it will make a lot of money on the back of the loyal MCU fans. Your problem Marvel is loyalty is quickly lost when you betray your loyal fan base, just hope this lemon of a movie doesn’t do that.

Lets make it very simple and clear: Captain Marvel is really worth a watch. It's just entertaining and visually impressive, exactly what it was meant to be.

Just keep this in mind that it's an origin story so don't go looking for an overstuffed complex story. It's just a fun action movie that introduces us to a new superhero Captain Marvel, played brilliantly by Brie Larson. I became an instant fan watching her in this action heroine avatar, something she manages to pull off with ease. Watch her in the action sequences and there's no way you can't be impressed. Viewers were literally cheering for some of the most heroic moments in the film. Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury is as awesome as always, it's just that his character feels even better and refined than what we've seen. Jude Law is also quite good, and so are Ben Mendelsohn and Lashana Lynch.

But the one character that ultimately steals the show is Goose, the cat. Some of the sequences involving her are so hilarious that it was really difficult to stop laughing.

Visual effects are excellent, and the IMAX 3D viewing just elevated them. And since it's most importantly an action movie, every single action sequence it delivers is impressive, especially the train sequence. I would call it one of the major highlights of the movie. Cinematography in certain portions is really impressive. Humor, like any other MCU movie, is top notch and really manages to make you laugh.

Captain Marvel has a simple-looking origin story presented and executed in a terrific manner. The directors have done a great job with the characterization of Captain Marvel, and that is what makes everything in the film seem so good. The pace is brisk, gore is minimal to no, and there's nothing unsuitable for kids.

Samuel Jackson, Clark Gregg and an Australian Skrull! (The only reson this gets a 1 score)
the bad points (pretty much everything else)

Sloppy directing/editing - All over the place and overlong, poor set pieces
predicatble and poor/lazy scripting - Many scenes stolen wholesale from other movies (not hommages - Ripoffs. light sabers, pod racing, Indiana Jones) - the mid credit scene should have been at the end, and the unfunny and so predictable end scene removed entirely. A cat coughing up a "furball". Must have taken the writers hours to figure that out!
Calling said cat a "flarkin" so that they could use the predictablly unfunny "Flarkin Cat" line!

Dark, as in can't see a bloody thing! I thought i was in a DC movie!
Pointless plot and gaping errors. Why do the Kree want a faster than light drive when they have JumpGate tech!? (ie wormholes)

As to the "lay it on with a back-Ho" Gender politics - well we have Marvel's puppet masters for that!
Unfortunately, this pointless movie reeks of Disney's "influence" and its neverending quest in princessifying the world. Disney fail to understand that Marvel's Comics (and by extension the movies that derive from them) are 95% read by males, yet D/M keep churning out female led books that struggle to get past 6 issues (Squirrel Girl and Moon Girl are being artificially sustained, apparently)
there are exceptions - black widow/Scarlet witch.
In fact, the MCU had the most powerful character pre-Snap. Scarlet witch was holding off thanos AND trying to destroy the Vision's gem simultaneously. In the comics, she said "no more mutants" and nearly all were gone. I wish Wanda would do "No more kree Supergirl" because that is what CM is turing into. Endgame will suffer from this if Ms marvel rescues the universe from the big bad MALE.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Horrible movie - looks like a Marvel parody than a movie. It promotes lots of policies - without respecting viewer beliefs... It's absurd, horrible-ugly Captain Marvel's anatomy. It's really nasty. If Captain Marvel movie would have smell - would smell like a trash truck. Expand

This woman is NOT a good role model. AT ALL. She is HORRIBLE - selfish, careless, willing to destroy innocent lives just to satisfy her ego of being powerful. My full review is far too long to post here. Do not let your kids watch this.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I personally didn't like how they used the skrulls in this movie. I was expecting something much more engaging and threatening then some homeless Skrulls just looking for a new place far away from the Kree to live. In the Comics, these two Empires constantly fought to expand each of their territory, and they didn't care if anyone got hurt in the process if they got in their way while doing so! I expected way more action on earth then we got, but instead we ended up wasting too much of the film in useless moments and on a story of refugee Skrulls that really made no sense! Why for once could they just take a known story that worked from the comics and developed that into the movie? Also, I may be wasting my time asking this question, but why did they have to once again use an infinity stone to grant someone their powers when that was never the case in the comics?! I just hate it that Marvel decided to take a movie that could have been good and over complicate it with things like the Cosmic Cube, which, I am not even sure if in the comic was an infinity stone at all. My final thought on this is, the movie is mediocre at best. The best character in it wasn't even a person but a cat and most of the time was CGI at that! Expand

Movie was fine, it was just a movie, it was not bad, it was entertaining for sure but definitely not great. With that being said this film was for sure the worst Marvel film but only because MCU films are typically great or incredibly great and this movie was neither so by default it was the worst one. Best we can come up with is that Captain Marvel was like an episode of Agents of Shield with slightly better CGI. Expand

Seeing that Rotten Tomatoes is unwilling to publish real reviews, I'll post it here.

What a terrible disappointment.

Ben Mandelsohn, Samuel L Jackson are great as always, but Brie herself seems to be a complete miscast. With many of the superhero roles, you get a sense of belonging when an actor steps on stage. I struggle to picture anyone else filling the roles for Thor, Iron Man or Wolverine - Chris, Robert and Hugh ARE those characters. Same applies for Gal Gadot for her portrayal as Wonder Woman.
But Brie.... I just don't buy it. It still feels like an actor playing a role, which is quite distracting.

As for the movie itself... the first half is truly a slog to get through. If you go to watch it yourself, see if you can make it through the first half without checking your watch / phone. Much of the "humour" falls flat; I didn't hear a single chuckle from the audience during the screening. The heavy reliance on 90's nostalgia was pushed just a little too far - the final climactic fight scene, played out to No Doubt's Just a Girl, was distracting and takes you out of the moment completely.

The timeline for the Tesseract is completely disjointed now. The explanation for Nick Fury's eye is insultingly bad and ignores any explanation from MCU comics. Mar-vell is relegated to being an old woman, ignoring any of the character's relevancy to Marvel history.

Captain Marvel feels like a convenient deus ex machina, shoe-horned into an established, decade-long franchise just prior to it's climactic conclusion. It feels forced, and using a character that even in the comics has always been deeply unpopular seems like an uncharacteristic miss-step for Marvel Studios (The character's comic run has been cancelled and rebooted multiple times, and still sells poorly)

I never thought, given the history of MCU and DCEU that I would say this, but DC did it so much better with Wonder Woman.

My advice - save your money. If you want to support great films with a strong female lead, see Alita or the upcoming Wonder Woman 2

Some CGI was okay. Guess how Nick Fury looses an eye, it's about as dumb as how solo got his name. Do not spend money on this cinematic experience. You would be more entertained if you took a twenty out of your wallet and set it on fire.

This hate is unhealthy and can be visibile during the movie which is very predictable , you can guess the ending by watching the first 15 minutes of the movie .

I feel like you could have replaced our main character with a cardboard box and it might have been a little better of a movie. Plenty of great female heroes, but I didn't feel any character growth here. All around, this movie was pretty boring.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Marvel is an SJW pacted movie that no one wants to see. It has more plot hole than any movie i have seen in a long time. The main plot is to protect a Kree scientist Marvel and her new faster than light engine from the Skrulls. Now in order to get to earth both races would already have Faster than light engines. The kree scientist Marvel needs to join the US military to use there tech to make the engine even though this kree scientist has a lab on a cloaked satelite orbiting earth. And how does the kree scientist join the us military with BLUE BLOOD. The ulimate SJW moment is when the Skrulls are Refuges separated from their families witch is clearly a comment on imigration reform. Writers and director need to read more about the Marvel Universe and what has happened before. I will not pay to see an entertainment movie that tells me what I should think about politics in america. the only reason that the movie did so well the first weekend was that, a. the fans where looking for Avengers Endgame links and b. Disney used the media to inflat ticket sales. Expand
