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

From the get go the main character lacksThis could have been a good movie, it had the Marvel production team behind it and we could have done with a strong and fresh female lead character. Why then did it end up with so many poor decisions? From the get go the main character lacks a distinct and appealing personality. She begins already stronger than any of her companions (and levels up in power twice during the movie) and essentially waltzes through the movie without suffering any physical, mental or emotional challenges (not that this would have been easy to tell given how wooden the main actress is, her face is botox level rigid throughout). All they had to do was humanize her a little, have her get her ass kicked during the early stages of the film, have her be desperately running for her life when she gets to earth instead of strolling casually around as though she's at the mall. There's no sense of urgency or passion at all from the character and though they heavy-handily shoe-horn in some dramatic 'hero' moments (e.g. doing the rising from the dirt, brushing the dust off thing) there is absolutely no sense either that she has earned it or that she has the moral integrity to deserve such power. The film and character can't help but be compared to Captain America, a movie in which the main character shows his spirit as a stick thin weakling, willing to take a beating for his principles (and get back up again), throw himself on a grenade to save people who mocked him, and use his brains where others use superior physical power. The movie did a fantastic job of showing why he was a hero outside of his super-powers. Setting all this aside the movie also suffers from plot-holes, terrible music choices that clash badly with their scenes, and humor that falls way below Marvels usual standard. This could well be the weakest offering in the MCU and leaves me hoping any cameo in Infinity War is brief and unimportant. Expand

The only reason I went is for the Endgame connection, they got me. Worse than Thor: The Dark World. This movie strays from comic book arc way too much, the only thing close was how she got her powers. Brie was horrid. Script looked rushed. Too many plotholes with the MCU cannon. You could tell this film was forced into the MCU timeline. I really hope that it doesn't carry over to Endgame.

But, hey you can finally know how Fury lost his eye.

This movie is great fun and I'm gonna watch it a second time for sure. My expectations were really high and it matched them. Brie Larson plays a refreshingly unpretentious Carol Danvers, much more like a Guardian Of The Galaxy rather than an Avenger

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My expectations were low, and I was still disappointed. There were a lot of flaws with this. A lot that felt out of place. Honestly, Sam Jackson felt like he was Morgan Freeman in Driving Miss Daisy. In every scene they were together it felt as if Fury was just the focal point cause he had to be. At no point in the movie did I feel like Larsen was a focal point. No scenes really made me feel that she was this omnipotent defeater of Thanos. It felt like they retconned the entirety of their implied universe. There was so much that didn't make sense. So the Skrulls are now misunderstood victims? What? Mar-Vell was a woman who had the tesseract on earth to save the Skrulls? Larsen never spoke, never gave a triumphant speech, never took center stage at all. She felt like a side character in her own movie. She didn't steal any scenes at all. The bland crescendo flying through space destroying things while Ronan cowardly left was incredulous. He stood up to Thanos, DEFIED THANOS and he cowers to her? I do not understand the point of this movie. It was poorly formulated, mediocre and just left me indifferent. I didn't hate it, didn't love it, just meh. Expand

this review is based on my own experience,

first off all i like marvel movie's in general, and which is why i wanted to see it despite the SJW-politics, and boy i regret paying money to see this movie in the cinema. the movie is full of cliche's about ''women'' like they act that there are no (have been) ''strong'' women in movie's and thats a lie,(watch Alien) people just want strong characters and not a Racist-cheerleader, that uses SJW slurs, and why is she the strongest character in the mcu? which retard decided that? like there should not be the strongest ''avenger'' at all because why do you need a team then? hopefully brie larson will be recasted, she does not fit in the mcu, she is a racist, and there are other women characters who allready have more depth like black widow, & Scarlett witch who deserve a standalone movie first. and next time keep your SJW-politics out of it

Flaws that would have made her a real and relatable character. Flaws that would have made her human. Carol sacrificed very little thoughout the movie as well. One of the defining traits of a hero is the willingness to sacrifice for the good of others. The one sacrifice she makes is to blow the core of the ship, but it seemed more out of spite then in service to others. The rest of the movie is Carol being to powerful for the enemy to deal with. She flaunts her powers around immaturely as if expecting others to respect her because she has them. This is a trait I attribute to antagonists more then protagonists. This would have been a fine trait to have if it ment character growth, leading to her humbling herself. Expand

As well, it didn't help that some scenes felt like they were from a few different movies and fan edited to create this new narrative. As a whole, it just felt like it didn't have its own identity, didn't develop the characters in a meaningful way, and serves as a ret on stepping stone to create a Marvel Keanu Reeves archetype where the audience can project themselves onto the character instead versus it being someone else's epic story that they get to see.

Without question this is a wait until you can catch at the dollar theater or when it is available for streaming.

I have watched a few superhero movies and this one is, by far, the only one that I thought was bad. Some of them were mediocre but Captain Boredom was just on a whole different level. Disney already tried to push their SJW, feminist agenda on the Star Wars movies they did and they successfully destroyed the franchise I once loved. Be careful MCU fans, this is the beginning of the end. This is the result of trying to push a political agenda in an entertainment product and have your main actress bad mouthing half of their audience.

If you want to see a decent superhero-ish movie, go watch Alita: Battle Angel. It might not be the best of the best but I can assure something: it doesn't shove SJW agendas up your ass and it's actually fun to watch.

Plot 4/10 - Visuals 6/10 - Dialogue 2/10 - Music 6/10 - Acting 4/10 - Fight scenes 4/10.

I was very scared before watching this movie because of all the drama and the politics involved. I still went to see it because I did not want to miss anything before Endgame.
For the ones who are scared about these politics and the feminism promotion, as someone which is very much against it, I'd tell you it's ok; it does not take more than a couple minutes of the movie but these moments are very cringy. You may also find that the casting seems to have been directed at very specific groups but it was also ok.

However despite this, pretty much everything about this movie in underwhelming: the plot, the characters, the twists, the ending and even the after ending scenes.
They also tried to give background stories to iconic avengers elements and it's all pretty bad.

The movie is not that bad in the end but it's pretty boring, nothing about this movie is good, the dialogues are for sure terrible but the rest is just "Meh".

This would not be such a problem as other Marvel films had the same types of problems (Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor 2...) if they did not want to make Captain Marvel the center of the upcoming movies. The hero is not likeable, not inspiring and had no public support before the movie. If they keep her as a secondary character, they might be able to save her just like the Russos changed Tony Stark and Thor but she does not have what it takes to be the centre of this universe. Please Marvel, go with Spiderman or Starlord for this, they have what it takes.

And if you really really want a woman for some reasons, there are other better women characters in Marvel, this one is just not the right one...

There are some good bits in it but they are few and far between, ultimately its neither completely terrible nor unwatchable, just really disappointing.

Let us leave her politics out of it, like she should have while promoting this movie, she is a poor actress and this movie suffered because of it. I know there is a lot of hate going on surrounding this movie because of comments she made but I went in with an open mind to see this movie. It just wasn’t good. Sam Jackson was top notch as always but he alone couldn’t save the film. The story and acting, on brie’s behalf, just weren’t up to the MCU standards all the previous films have set. People go to movies to escape the bs going on in the ‘real world’ every day, be it politics, society clashes, blah blah. Just make good films and stop hiring people who for one can not act and secondly care more about promoting their own agenda instead of the actual movie they starred in. I hope End Game follows tradition for the MCU and doesn’t set captain marvel up for a huge role in the future of the MCU or else everyone will suffer; the fans and your bottom line. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only thing this movie has going for it is Samuel L. Jackson. I really wanted to like this movie. But it just seems out of nowhere. It seems forced. This is the person who is supposed to defeat Thanos? You think they would have eluded to Captain Marvel a lot earlier. It almost seems like they’re trying to repeat Ironman climb to the top but rushed. Like she’s going to take over. Here’s a quick story about here and overcoming some crap, oh yeah! Here’s Nick Fury and Agent Colson. You know those guys and like those guys! Here you go! Then the Elidong to Avengers being her idea? No! What? Anyways it just seems rushed and a script that is a little over the top. Now they’re going to stick her into End Game with seasoned characters to take down a major baddy. If this is the future of Marvel. Maybe DC will finally pull it’s head out of its butt. I’m just gonna waitbfornend game to release on bluRay. Expand

Captain Marvel has been shoved down the throats of comic readers for decades, but nobody has ever really got into the character so it has been reinvented time and time again. Here we have another blatant attempt by Marvel to make Captain Marvel happen, but falls face first due to a lackluster story, two dimensional villains, and poor acting on Larson's part. I feel really sorry for Elizabeth Olsen, Scarlet Witch was dumbed down in strength for the big screen and it's clear she has been sidelined by Marvel for Captain Marvel to swoop in and save the day. But this isn't a character we are invested in, not like Olsen's Scarlet Witch. Marvel had big shoes to fill with this movie, and it simply isn't up to par with other movies in the genre, in terms of visual style, special effects or acting. Expand

I don't care about Brie Larson, I really didn't even know who she wasI just want to start by saying I can separate an actor/actress from a film, there are a few that I cannot stand but that wont stop me from seeing one of their movies. I don't care about Brie Larson, I really didn't even know who she was before this film I wanted to see this at the very least so I could give a legitimate opinion on it. That being said this movie played out like a disjointed, rushed and shoehorned addition to the MCU that falls flat on its face from the script, to retconning the origin of the Avengers to taking a badass like Nick Fury and having him lose his eye over Goose the cat, who people are right a cat, CAT has more screen presence and charisma than the lead actress. Brie Larson looked bored and irritated throughout the film which honestly made her hard to watch and it brought down the performances of the rest of the cast just having her in the scenes with them. Another thing of note is the "talking points" this movie promoted so lets break those down. Strong female character - Black Widow, Scarlett Witch, Pepper Pots, Gamora, Peggy Carter etc.

First female led marvel film - Electra, Red Sonja (lest not forget tv which had Jessica Jones).

CG space battles - Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy films.

Feminist agenda driven film - uh yeah thats true that's your big #1.

I really wanted to like this film I did. I don't care about controversy, I don't care about the "man hating" comments if the movie is good then I'll watch and I'll enjoy and even say so but this movie was so unapologetic in the worst of ways its let they set out to intentionally take everything the fans loved about the past decade of the MCU and spit in its face.

El primer error es la fecha de salida, muy innecesario que salga después de Infinity War y es hasta molesto. Segundo, los personajes son bastante malos: ella está bastante bien pero los otros? Si bien me gusta un Fury cómico y jóven, quisiera haber visto en la peli como se convierte en el profesional malhumorado que conocemos y eso claramente no pasa. Coulson se roba todas las escenas obviamente, la amiga de Carol es un buen personaje pero en mi opinión uno muy innecesario cuyo tiempo se lo hubiera destinado a la doctora, quien es el peor personaje de todos: su historia es casi nula y sus motivos nunca son explicados sin mencionar la posesión del artefacto que no se explica como llego a ella. Los villanos muy olvidables como casi siempre y la aparición de Ronan es una muy mala decisión. Los efectos especiales están bien y la banda sonora ya me lo olvide.

En fin, una película definitivamente sin gloria y un mal sabor de boca de cara a Endgame.

Samuel L Jackson was the only one trying to make a good effort and did shine, especially with Goose. Captain marvel herself didn’t pull her part unfortunately with lacluster acting and emotions rarely having any convincing part in the overall plot. Would prefer that all Brie’s SJW politics was left outside the entertainment of a pleasant action flick. Rumours are she will be edited out from End Game which I wouldn’t be to sad about and recasting her as CM wouldn’t hurt either.

Please dont do a Last Jedi/Han Solo with the MCU Disney...

(We all are aware of the organized trolling campaign of user ratings against this film, right? So it should go without saying to take the user rating aggregate with a MASSIVE grain of salt, yes?)
Much like Carol's comic book history, the plot of the film is complicated, more than it should be. The first half of the film is a write-off... for an alien warrior without a past, Larson plays Danvers bafflingly chipper and flighty and we're given a tonally bizarre 90s buddy cop (which appears to be the sole reason the film is set in the 90s, by the way).
However, the second half is where the film shines. Interesting (though again, complicated) plot twists, mind-blowing fights and an amazing message of empowerment that will have you cheering. Move over Mr. Rogers, there's a new Captain in town!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was not entirely feminist propaganda but still had light touches to it. The things that bothered me was that Captain Marvel felt more like a Phase 1 film and didn't meet my expectation especially after the incident of Infinity War. This movie felt like it should have been released 10 years ago rather than now. Brie Larson as Captain Marvel didn't show much emotion or expression making me feel distant from her as a person and not easily likeable. Captain Marvel also reached the level of invinciblity at the end of the movie and I was not quite able to relate to the character. Other superheroes like Ironman and Captain America had flaws which every regular human can relate to but not with Captain Marvel.
Overall, it was a pretty average movie making this movie the third worst Marvel movie after Thor the Dark World and The Incredible Hulk.
