And Brie Larson... couldn't they find someone who could emote? Look at Wonder Woman, or Alita. A CG character was more capable of showing more expressions than Larson.… Expand

They even have little flashbacks to show her growing up.
She arrives on earth and snarks her way through the rest of the film with little resistance and by the end she is unstoppable. Like a combination of all the avengers powers added together and multiplied x10.
Fury is a younger computer generated version and plays it for goofy laughs most of the time and there is a bit of M.I.B mixed into the film.
As for how she will fit into the Infinity Wars End Game film goes the words Deus Ex Machina come to mind.… Expand

There's about as much personality in the main character as a road accident. The writing was lightweight in that regard, but I feel a better actor could have put more life in the same movie script.

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

In general an interesting movie with some very good visual effects, just a some flaws here and there, and a story with an unexpected outcome. The final battle feels very unadecuate and unbalanced. In the end I see potencial here but it's wasted to much degree. Changes in the canon from the comics seem interesting for the most part (there's one I think was innecesary but it’s not that relevant) and I look forward to what may come from them in the future but in the same way I regret a little bit the limitations that they impose and which they come with. Brie Larson is Ok as Carol but lacks as Captain, I hope there’s a better and original script for her in further appearances. The rest of the cast is fine as well and Jude Law few appereances feel interesting in this role. If Wonder Woman is an A or a 10, this one is a B- or a 7. Within the MCU I would place it above Ant-Man and the Wasp and Guardians 2 but below the first Ant-Man movie.… Expand

TL;DR: To call Brie Larson's performance wooden would be an insult to things made of wood. Brie has all the charisma of hot roadkill on a desert highway. She's the most badly miscast character since John Wayne played a kinda-squinty GenghisTL;DR: To call Brie Larson's performance wooden would be an insult to things made of wood. Brie has all the charisma of hot roadkill on a desert highway. She's the most badly miscast character since John Wayne played a kinda-squinty Genghis Khan in The Conqueror from 1956. Captain Marvel is aggressively-dull, pretentious, & crammed with persecution-complex/female-empowerment propaganda. Thematically the film is utterly-generic. The story is a pointless mess. Search for the post-credit scenes on Twitter, & you'll miss NOTHING for Endgame by skipping it. & you won't have wasted 2 & 1/2 hours of valuable air-sucking you'll never get back.

True comicbook fans can find 100 ways in which they disrespect the universe, but I'll critique the film as a Normy.

CM tries for the Marvel formula of irreverent banter, & mostly misses. The dialogue is meant to be witty, especially between the 2 Air Force feminists, but it drips with the kind of self-satisfied snark you see everywhere on Twitter. Both actresses try hard to seem like they're not trying very hard.

Several lines are absolute cringe. From a feminist caricature of a 'toxic male' pilot: “You DO know why it's called the COCK-pit, right?” Uuugghhh.

& from Brie Of The Lifeless Eyes herself: "I'm not gonna fight your war, I'm gonna END it." Delivered in her inflectionless, talentless monotone. Girlpower PUKE!

Then there's the Amnesia Trope. Writing your character with complete memory-loss should get you summarily sh*t-canned.

As for the "Protagonist": If you thought Rey from Star Wars was an insufferable Mary Sue, Brie Larson's Carol Danvers brings even LESS charm to the party.

They tried to write her as perfect, but what she is is perfectly-joyless. Brie thinks she's too much of a star to put in effort for the cameras.

Question for the directors: Why are Captain Marvel's "toxic male" co-stars always telling her she can't do stuff, & trying to hold her back? & what's happening behind her vacant, thousand-yard stare?

Brie delivers her lines like she's phoning them in from China, & her expressions were added in after by CGI artists in Dubai who are bored with their jobs.

As for the Special Effects, they ranged from spooky-good (the de-aging of Samuel L Jackson; never noticed it beyond the first few frames) to low-budget video-game-bad (an obviously-fake Brie Larson shooting obviously-fake proton-bolts from her fists in space, which don't even align with where she's 'punching.') When she FINALLY goes “full-superhero block-of-wood,” the scene is confused & phony AF!

She's not a believable combatant; not in hand-to-hand, not in a fighter jet, not in her computer-generated super-suit.

An important point; if you're not invested in the story, the over-the-top action gets tiresome quick. Who cares how 'splody the world gets when Optimus Prime defeats Megatron for the fifth time? Just get ON with it.

Admittedly Captain Marvel isn't as bad as the Transformers sequels, but it's by far the worst movie in the MCU. Made worse by Marvel shoving this horrible Mary Sue into a final showdown she's earned no role in. Captain Marvel earns nothing she's given, NOTHING, & that's how feminists want it. Disney's making her PIVOTAL to defeating Thanos.

That's pure, presumptuous pandering. & Brie thinks MEN have massive privilege.

The Bright Spots: Ben Mendelson as Talos, & a genuinely touching pre-scene tribute to Stan Lee. These, & some 90's nostalgia for the soundtrack, are all that's memorable in this otherwise belligerently-subpar cluster-F. Mendelson is so fantastic I was hoping the writers might've had a stroke & let him accidentally kill our bored-looking “savior.”

But no, Mary Sues aren't actual characters, who can be killed or defeated. They're avatars for the entire female gender - & to give the embodiment of All-Women-Everywhere any humanizing flaws would be to imply that women aren't perfect - so the writers were too terrified to let you think their Mary Sue might lose for even a second. Just ponderously-bad writing.

They should've given Goose the cat his own movie. The tale of Goose and Fury! THAT could've been fun, instead of gag-inducing. Oh, & the way Nick Fury looses his eye is so pathetic it's hard to believe it made it past all the levels of gatekeepers & into the movie itself. Good god, the creative talent of Stan Lee is SORELY missed.

To clarify, I paid the ticket price to see How To Drain Your Dragon 2, also in 3D, because I refuse to fund feminist cancer. Which Captain Marvel IS. I had a few triumphant heartbeats when Brie began 'kicking-ass' to No Doubt's “I'm Just A Girl,” but it was so forced & pretentious it felt like the cheap propaganda it was.

RottenTomatoes is brazenly shilling for Disney & Social Justice, & is refusing to post critical reviews that give movie-goers the level-headed truth.

Tempting as it is, this can't be held against CM, & if Transformers 5 gets a 1 out of 10, she deserves at least a 2.… Expand

She doesn't grow or change as a character, and there is no real threat.

Since that time, the popularity of the Marvel franchise has only grown and the call for a female lead movie hasIt has been eleven years since the first Marvel movie, Iron Man hit the big screen, spawning the first cinematic comic universe. Since that time, the popularity of the Marvel franchise has only grown and the call for a female lead movie has only increased with each passing year. In 2019, her time has come, as Marvel introduces its most powerful hero to us on the cusp of Endgame, Captain Marvel.

The movie opens with Vers, a member of the Kree Starforce. She’s plagued by dreams of another life, one that seems familiar, but she cannot place. He mentor Yon-Rogg, continually lectures her about her emotional state and how her emotions and memories are holding back her true power. The Supreme Intelligence (an artificial intelligence for the Kree people that is a collection of all their greatest minds) reminds Vers of this same thing, her power can be taken away, just as it was given, if she does not learn to fall in line, control her emotions and follow orders. On top of all of this, there are the shapeshifting Skrulls, the sworn enemies of the Kree who are seen as terrorists, infiltrating planets clandestinely to turn them against the Kree.

If all of this seems like a lot, it is. The beginning of the movie is disjointed and disorienting. It takes a while to catch everything that is happening, who is who and how it all fits together. It’s also not helped by flashbacks to Veers previous life on Earth. This is the single biggest problem with the movie. The prehistory of Vers (Carol Danvers), is one of immense hardship, a bad family, constantly being told she’s not good enough or will never make it, always being put down. Her past life is struggle.

The issue is, that this theme of struggle seems incongruous with what we see in the present. There is never a situation that Carol is in, that she cannot handle. In fact, it’s all pretty easy for her. Even when her powers are taken away, she is able to beat up everyone in the room.

Her struggle for identity is also a frustration. This should be the core of the movie, the question of, “who am I.” She’s a woman without a past, that is tortured with memories that don’t make sense, yet you never feel that. Honestly Veers and Danvers are pretty much the same. There is not a shift in characterization or tone, it is all one note and that note is, “I’m too cool for school.” In the end, the lead character ends up being the least interesting person on screen.

This is accentuated but the fact that she is surrounded by good actors on every side. Samuel L. Jackson is back as a younger Fury and he’s great. You truly believe this is a man that’s confronted with his first alien encounter, that this is his first step into a much larger world. Ben Mendelsohn steals the show as the Skrull Talos. Every time he is on screen, he’s electric. Lashana Lynch as Maria Rambeau is better here than Larson. Her portrayal of Danvers’ best friend is heartfelt and emotional.

Samuel L. Jackson and Clark Gregg as Phil Coulson, both are de-aged in the film. At first, it is off-putting, as it does not look completely believable. Gregg unfortunately will never look right, but Jackson does begin to look better throughout the film and some scenes are better than others. Unfortunately the inconstancy draws your attention to something the filmmakers want you to be able to forget, but never can.

Captain Marvel never reaches the heights of Marvel’s best. There aren’t stand out action moments that you’ll walk out of the theater talking about. The lack of narrative and thematic cohesion, plus the lack of a strong arc for the main character put the movie firmly in middle of the Marvel pack, it’s neither a train wreck or a stand out, it’s just kinda there. What’s most disappointing is not feeling like Carol Danvers is anything other than a powerful pawn being placed on the Marvel board for a movie that’s not her’s. Carol Danvers deserved better. Captain Marvel is rated 3 out 5 stars.… Expand

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

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

Again this is not Brie larson's fault, if anything it is a good thing because now the Russo brother's have her character as a blank slate to work with. The supporting cast was very good except the child actor, but of course it's a child actor so can't fault her too much. Again, this movie didn't do anything wrong exactly but it did not do anything well.… Expand

It wasn't a complete bore, though some parts of the pacing made me want to look at my watch, and in fact, I did look at my phone once, to check what time it was, since the dialogue and story was just dragging on at a couple of points in the movie. Casual movie-goers, and general audience will find something to look at and enjoy for the moment. MCU fans, comic book readers and folks who look at movies with a more critical eye will find PLENTY of issues with it. From the acting, dialogue, plot holes and established lore, it had a lot going on that just didn't mix well. I expected more from Brie, an oscar winner and whatnot, but this was just sub-par. Jude Law, Samuel Jackson and others outshined her, and her character did not feel central to the movie, at least for me. Overall, it's a fun but shallow movie. There's not much to bite into and plenty of flaws (too many considering this is a big budget Marvel film) that avid fans and honest critics will obviously take issue with. To put it simply, it has the salsa, but none of the meat. It's a 5/10 for me.… Expand

I didn't have high hopes going in, but I thought I'd give it a fair shake. Maybe it was more than a paean to pretty white girl power, right? Maybe they just made a fun popcorn movie, or perhaps it explores some original tropes. Conceivably it might even feature the high quality of acting of which Oscar winner Brie Larson (real name Brianne Sidonie Desaulniers) is apparently capable (although I'm informed that her previous movies are Not Made For Me, so I haven't seen any).

Nope. A big, flat-assed nope.

It's cringe from start to finish. Larson (real name Brianne Sidonie Desaulniers) has a blank expression on her face which is intended to convey... what? I have no idea. That she's bored with the whole thing? Well, me too. The few brief scenes where she changes that expression just highlight that she's got her Resting Bored Face on for the entirity of the rest of the movie.

She's not interesting, she's not appealling, she's brings no depth or complexity or even personality to the character.

And as the movie is entirely about her, what does that leave us?

The score and cinematography, which is pedestrian. The CGI which is frankly shoddy, although even CGI-Jackson acts Larson (real name Brianne Sidonie Desaulniers) off the screen. Mind you, so does the cat.

The pacing is all over the place, both plodding and rushed. It feels like a much longer movie than it actually is. The last twentyu minutes is the most tolerable, but in terms of character development, it's simply super-powered pretty white girl becomes SUPER super-powered pretty white girl. But we're given no reason to care.

There are a few clumsy stabs at The Patriarchy, but not enough to condemn it purely on that basis. No, I condemn it because it's a dull, poorly written, badly made and disastrously cast movie.

You know what I was thinking of all the way through this disaster? Howard the Duck. How I'd rather be watching Howard the Duck. Weird, but true.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. They contradict things already in existence in the MCU & the main character has no story arc what-so-ever.
The plot has horrible pacing & is also very inconsistent.
The music feels like a very brief after thought to confirms the 90s era time line & is occasionally too loud to hear everything else happening in the movie.
The digital affects used later in the movie are obvious & well under what Marvel has grown their fans to expect.
The de-aging software was either inconsistent w/ agent Coulson & Nick Fury or they used it sometimes & did makeup other times. Either way, it was distracting & again, below the standard Marvel established with Tony stark in earlier films (as well as other characters like Hank Pym).
This really was the worst Marvel movie I've ever seen & I include Electra & the old 90s fantastic 4 movies. The SJW parts of the script were incredibly transparent as well as lazy writing & how they portrayed men throughout is pretty disgusting & insulting (Fury checking the alien's body to see if his penis size is larger than his is unbelievably absurd & ridiculous).
I actually see the beginning of the end for Marvel movies after phase 4 & believe me I hope I'm wrong. I've loved the movies (for the most part) leading up to now but after endgame I'm done w/ whatever this MCU turn into.… 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

Our feelings have the capacity to spark decisions that when strongly justified, leave a legacy. Notice Captain Hook: after losing a hand to some flying brat and a crocodile. His pain and fear fueled an ambition dedicated to ridding Peter PanOur feelings have the capacity to spark decisions that when strongly justified, leave a legacy. Notice Captain Hook: after losing a hand to some flying brat and a crocodile. His pain and fear fueled an ambition dedicated to ridding Peter Pan in order to rest peacefully. As a result, James Matthew Barrie’s creation remains to this day one of the most iconic villains across literature, theater, and cinema. There’s no similar emotional drive from anyone in Captain Marvel, a movie that shows how badly Earth needs someone out of our own world to fight off the great evil Marvel Studios created.

The problems start with the aliens. Remember how Star Trek famously used its aliens as cultural symbolism for more abstract concepts based on the time each episode and movie were made? I remember during my college years twice watching the old Star Trek episode, Let That Be Your Last Battlefield, where the crew meets two beings white on one side of the face and black on the other, to represent the Civil Rights Movement. Marvel’s cheap way of utilizing that is through its alien race of the Skrulls, shape-shifters who could be anyone at any moment: Nick Fury, Stan Lee, Thanos, etcetera. You know, exactly what Invasion of the Body Snatchers did. Yet boys watching this movie will five minutes later forget the overbeaten communism/terrorism allegory as it’s used improperly.

The other world outside our planet, Carol’s home of Hala, feels less like something that will captivate viewers of all ages, and more a like bland inspiration off anyplace that isn’t the United States, leading into unintentional offensive territory much like how Doctor Strange insults the culture of Buddhist monks. Talk about lost opportunities! At least the actual human characters are represented better than the fictional ethnicities of blue-face and green-face; still doesn’t make them good role models, however.

Brie Larson fails to empower women into being perfect leaders as she expresses no prodigy in her performance of distracting plasma-fists—at least Scarlet Johansson puts SOME effort into Black Widow. Captain Marvel marks a massive step-down from Captain America, a man who, unlike his female version, still manages to convey a smidgen of believability through clear strengths and weaknesses. While Marvel Studios' Black Panther coincided (perhaps intentionally) with the Black Lives Matter movement, this movie seems to be well-timed (also could be intentional) with the rising feminist movement. The problem with that is they don’t know how to make a good movie out of a suggested political agenda.

Heck, Brie is just doing the opposite of what she intends, degrading both men and women with her pathetic moments. The origin of her costume colors tries for inspiration, and a scene of claustrophobic corridors midway through has the thrills, and the explanation to how Nick Fury got his eyepatch is appropriately funny, but all the highest points coupled alongside Annette Bening’s painful exchanges with Brie (seriously, they barely let the other finish their sentences) render the cool moments worthless.

The heavy reliance on flashbacks establishes another reason why Captain Marvel goes against what it wants to achieve. While events depict the genesis of S.H.I.E.L.D., it turns annoyingly obtrusive to see Carol’s memories of getting back up after falling down when a conversation would have sufficed. Not to mention the cameraman makes everything too dark and foggy in space and didn’t even bother thinking through how to shoot the scenes in California. The intense lack of care from everyone behind this project tempts one of the Skrulls to shout, “I’m the captain now!” Or better, “There’s no crying in baseball!” Yeah, there are plenty of nineties references in this movie set in that very decade, but not for plot purposes, just aimless nostalgia. These include the kind-of-funny: taking a long time to play a CD, but mostly the cheap: “I’m Just a Girl” playing over the final fight, and a Terminator 2: Judgment Day rip-off of, “I need your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle.”

It’s straight-up insulting how much this story copies familiarity, including all the lazy plot conveniences that subject this entire screenplay as a massive step down for Marvel Studios. For instance, Carol flies an escape pod perfectly without ever having seen it before, then crash lands by coincidence in her home of six years earlier (of all places)! Marvel’s ship must have let its anchor down way back in 2014 yet somehow keep rowing. Thus, they sunk.… Expand

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.

Brie Larson does a decent job, but for whatever the reason she mostly just comes off as flat throughout the movie. Meanwhile, Samuel L. Jackson is definitely the stand out in this film, and the rest of the supporting cast mostly hits.

In my honest opinion, the only reason this movie doesn't excel as it should is because it has the burden of serving as origin story to this supposedly integral character during a point in the MCU where an origin story just feels jarring. Infinity raised the stakes so high, and this movie did little to sate my appetite for what's coming next. Had this been a Phase 1 film, it probably would have fared much better, but as it is now, only a month out from Infinity War, it just feels average.… Expand

Ok, It's a big problem with this movie. And I have to say that's about Brie Larson which is terrible in acting here. I watched after this one the Room movie, and there she is good, cause it's her style. Captain Marvel looks terrible. It seemsOk, It's a big problem with this movie. And I have to say that's about Brie Larson which is terrible in acting here. I watched after this one the Room movie, and there she is good, cause it's her style. Captain Marvel looks terrible. It seems like she want to be a strong woman, but she is not. And it's like in a bad theater. It makes this movie very bad and It's not the only fault of Larson - it's a problem of people who made this, who chose the actress. There are bad jokes (Cat, are u serious?) and it killed Fury, because it doesn't make sense after all He is a military guy with a hard past ( And we can see his behavior in the previous movies). And I'm sure that they just wanted to make a movie for new audience to make more money may be or to be in a trend of feminism or something like that. It was obviously a wrong decision. I don't like that because it spoiled my time. And you know what? This character will defeat Tanos ( I think) in the next movie. I really wanted to see the end of the Avengers but I feel that it will be much worse than 1st one. If they will do such thing again I wont go on next MCU films to do not spoil my mood.… Expand

Terrible part on Marvel's end, and another on them for picking the actors... No one should watch this.. EVER.

Character is boring and flat. Few interesting lines and action. Plot is fairly bad.
