The worst of Marvel movies... I was excited that this hero will receive film... But this is just no good. And for me this film never existed.

I would say this movie failed to keep my attention or interest, but seeing as it never gained either in the first place, I don't know quite what I should say.

Wooden acting from the lead actress and a confusing (and at times predictable) plot. I was so bored the whole way through that I checked to see if the movie was over about two dozen times and every single time I did, there as still far too much runtime left.

Possibly the worst superhero movie Marvel has ever made. I didn't care about ANYTHING in this movie. The plot, the characters, the "stakes", none of it had any meaning to me. I have to wonder who this movie was made for in the first place. I'm a casual MCU viewer (wouldn't really count myself as a "fan" yet) and I failed to find anything of value in this movie, so maybe it's for more hardcore fans of the series? Certainly it wasn't for me.

If 1/10 was Game of Thrones Season 8 and 5/10 was Avengers: Age of Ultron (a painfully average movie), I'd give this movie a 3/10.

It is not a masterpiece and it is not the best film of the MCU but it is not even the worst. It makes you have fun, entertains you ... in short, it does what I expect from a cinecomic.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Good introduction movie without spending too much time on her origin. There was a lot of controversy surround this movie for the wrong reasons which I won't cover as it's not warranted. Whilst not an A lister in the Marvel Comics up until the last decade, Captain Marvel has succeeded in being the real first Phase 4 movie even tho it really isn't a Phase 4 movie because it's a few months before Avengers: Endgame. But the main point is that the MCU now has it's new Iron Man + Capt America combo character that can lead the New Avengers post Endgame.

The twists in the movie were good, because they were unexpected but still provide an opportunity for a Secret Invasion arc in a few years. The way the Kree, and Skrull war was set up in the trailers was very different in the movie. Having Nick Fury, and Agent Coulson was nice but I did feel sad that Fury was basically comic relief in the movie.

Onward to Avengers: Endgame!

I think it is an entertaining movie with some flaws but definitely good. Back then I had no interest because we wanted to see the conclusion after Infinity War and Captain Marvel had not much appeal similar to the comics (Miss Marvel would be better). I like the story with the good twists, the characters or better said the interactions, the Flerken and action sequences. There are some weaknesses too. Nick Furry is a bit out of character (but still really good), Carols character could be a bit more flashed out by the script (Also works well and won me over) and her Kree teammates are uninteresting or better said mostly wasted. Lets say there is no compelling villain in the movie but this was nearly a standard in the MCU but is now fixed. The story is set before the events of the other Marvel movies in 1995. The alien Kree empire is at war with the Skrulls which have impressive shape shifting abilities. An elite group of Kree warriors is sent on a mission. This is the crucial test for the member Vers to proof herself. She had amnesia after a past mission and struggles with this a flashes of past memories. However things will get far more different than anyone expected. Like I said the story works well and was entertaining. The twists are good even if 1 or 2 things are far foreseeable. For an introduction movie it is definitely a better one. The characters are enhancing the movie. Brie Larson as Captain Marvel works well. Maybe they could improve the script more for her but the criticism for her role and acting is not valid for me. Samuel L. Jackson returns as Nick Fury. He is a bit different than before but so enjoyable that I don't mind. Be warned others were more offended than me about this. Of cause Clark Gregg as Phil Coulson is always a plus. He is one of my favorite characters and I would recommend the first 3 seasons of Agent of Shield by the way. Other than those I praise Ben Mendelsohn as Talos who is amazing, Lahana Lynch as Maria Rambeau, both actors who play her daughter Monica Rambeau and Jude Law as Yon Rogg but he is woften eakened by the script. The cast is in total a positive asset but sometimes weakened by the script. The humor works well but to be fair cant keep up with the more humorous Marvel movies. The Flerken is interesting but I think this is just a normal cat that does not hide the true self like all the others ;-). The special effects are top notch as always and I repeat that this is no issue in the MCU. Overall while not one of the best Marvel movies this is not a failure. I was thinking of a 7-8/10 but think a 7 is maybe too low. Lets say I rounded it up to an 8/10. Expand

"Space invasion, big car chase... truth be told, I was ready to hang it up. 'Till I met you today."

One year later - nobody's talking about this, expect for me right now. All that fuss and name calling over an average by the book superhero movie.

One of the blandest and most forgettable movies of last year, which I just remembered to login as watched.

Brie Larson, who has proven in the past to be a talented actress with amazing range, but is unfortunately the weakest link in the movie. I thought her performance was incredibly wooden and the least interesting part of the movie. Her line delivery felt really off and there wasn't anything there for me to care about her character. All backstory with very little depth. It might have just been the poor material she was given to work with.

I'm sorry, but not once did I believe this is the strongest character in the MCU. The issue is that the movie does a terrible job of actually showing us that she is powerful and important. They tell us rather than show us. Like OK, she shoots lasers, flies around and has some magical glow around her. Am I suppose to be impressed?

The story itself is really messy and unfocused. It's trying so hard to be an origin story while also setting up the next installment for future movies, but also having a Bourne element into the mix of connecting pieces to the past.

Also I can't believe they did Lee Pace dirty. Not just once, but twice now!

However, there are some things I liked in the movie that stopped it from being the worst thing ever. I love the tribute to Stan Lee on the Marvel Studios opening intro, which was such a loving touch to his legacy.

The de-aging on Samuel L. Jackson was fantastic and shows us how far technology has come. Although towards the end the effects started to look a bit wonky for some reason. Jackson himself was charismatic and a blast to watch. It was interesting to see a younger and goofy version of Nick Fury before he gets super serious.

I love Goose the Cat, just don't let her anywhere near your eyes.

The Skrulls were enjoyable "villains" and Ben Mendelsohn absolutely shines as one of the Skrulls.

And that's really it for positives.

Overall rating: "Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't." - Margaret Thatcher

Yes, I actually took a quote from Thatcher. I honestly should just delete my account right now.

I've come to really appreciate Brie Larson's acting-- the wit and charm her character has. This film really resonates with me and the journey she goes on with gaslighting and identity. Ignore the 0 and 1 ratings, those are likely just the incels that keep trying to lower the film's status. They're pretty easy to spot. This film is ace. Expand

I enjoyed it, it's funny and thoroughly entertaining and a must see for Marvel fans. There are not enough superhero films with a female lead and the ones we do have are, let's be honest, a bit rubbish. I mean Elektra and Catwoman, come on that cannot be the best they can do. Also the fact that we haven't gotten a Black Widow solo movie yet is borderline insulting at this point but apparently there is one in development so there's still hope. It wasn't until Wonder Woman 2017 that it looked like it was possible to have a female superhero movie that wasn't just a joke. I'm not saying Wonder Woman was a masterpiece, it had it's share of problems but it was a definite step in the right direction. Now in 2019 Captain Marvel is another giant step in the right direction.

It's the 1990s and we first meet Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) with her powers so no 40 minute wasting time with the hero gets powers and figures out how to use them origin thing. She unexpectedly finds herself on earth during a galactic war between two alien races. It's set before most of the other Avenger movies so you know what that means, a younger CGI version of Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg). Admittedly this has looked a bit dodgy in the likes of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and Antman and the Wasp but for Captain Marvel it's not looking too bad. Also starring Jude Law, Annette Bening and Ben Mendelsohn so a good cast all round. It has a great balance between action and comedy, a perfect precursor to keep us going until Endgame. Brie Larson really was a great casting choice for Captain Marvel. No you don't have to love it, like most superhero movies it isn't perfect but as long as you can buy into the story you should enjoy the ride. It set up the story well and followed its own rules, it did take some time to win me over but Brie Larson had me practically cheering her on by the end. My expectations were not high and we all know how misleading trailers can be but it certainly exceeded them. If you're part of the MCU fanbase then I'm sure you were all in the cinema opening night and don't need me or anyone else to tell you to see it. For anyone on the fence or if you find yourself being swayed by the wave of online trolls and negative reviews do yourself a big favour, ignore all that and go see it for yourself. Highly recommended.

I liked Avengers so thought maybe this one may be ok. Worst Marvel movie ever made. Brie was not a poor cast and her character ruined it for me. The whole Girl Power which semester to be hollywood snow thing, is just killing me and I am a female! Her over confidence , constant smirks and joking around just threw me off.
1. The music...they play I’m just a Girl by Gwen Stefani!!!!! U kidding me? How horrific! Who is directing this? They should be fired. 2. The constant attempt at jokes just which didn’t and doesn’t work
3. Brie’s one dimensional acting and inability to show emotions just ruined this powerful character! That’s also the director she fault, they should see that she can’t deliver on screen and have her fix it. 4. At some point Brie realized she can fly!!! And screams and yells Yay..whoohooo as she going through rocks and punching space shuttles! What we we 5 yrs old?
5. The feminism is just way too forced! Hollywood please stop pushing this down on us. It’s too much, you are ruining movies with it!! Just stop.
Movie is soooo weak. I will not see a second one with her in it.

Captain Marvel is an important movie for the future of the MCU, and it's good despite its flaws. Trust me, the surrounding online negativity about ultra-feminism in this movie is unfounded.

Captain Marvel defeats both men and women in combat, but there is no political undertone (unless you count one instance of the song "Just A Girl" playing in the background during a fight as being SJW propaganda). It's just a movie showing that women can be heroes, too. If Bruce Banner can get super-powers due to a gamma ray accident and become The Hulk, so can Carol Danvers become a cosmic superhero due to an explosion. No one has ever complained about strong female characters such as Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider movies or Ellen Ripley in the Alien film series, so complaints about Captain Marvel being feminist are ridiculous. There is not a single scene where Carol Danvers declares men as being inferior to women, or anything like it.

The movie is a prequel set in 1995, where Nick Fury and Phil Coulson are still low-level SHIELD agents. Captain Marvel is already powerful and has to re-discover her past, while she's caught in the Kree-Skrull war. The plot is good enough, with twists and turns, but they left a few threads hanging for a potential sequel. For those complaining that Marvel didn't set up the Secret Invasion with the Skrulls, yes it would have been cool to see that, but fans should know that Marvel won't adapt classic stories anymore but they'll try to tell original stories with the characters in order to surprise fans.

I could list various minor issues I have with the film but my only major criticism is the star of the movie, Brie Larson. She's not bad, but she's mostly emotionless. Even when Carol Danvers discovers the truth about her past, and when she discovers an all-new power, she hardly expresses any emotion. Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark, for instance, screamed with joy when he flew for the 1st time in his Iron Man suit. But the problem may be due to Captain Marvel's cosmic powers, which render her ridiculously super-powerful and un-beatable.

The movie has a soundtrack with a selection of some cool 1990s songs, but the Gaurdians of the Galaxy films did a much better job in this regard.

Captain Marvel is a nice addition to the MCU but its plot doesn't really add something noteworthy. The Wonder Woman film did a much better job in establishing female-led superhero movies.

Last but not least, Captain Marvel is the 1st MCU movie after the passing of Stan Lee, and it starts with the Marvel intro sequence showcasing past Stan Lee cameos! I almost cried when watching this tribute.

A major character (an obvious one) creates the MCU just like how Scrat created the whole GALAXY in the Ice Age Movies. How bloody nuts is that?!?
Onto the review.

As the long wait to Avengers Endgame is coming to an end,here's a movie about a Female Superhero that no one's ever heard of before that the fans of the “acclaimed” Glass and Mortal Engines are complaining about because they have nothing productive to do. And you know what? In a way,I have to thank the fan outrage for this one (A LOT). If it wasn't for them,I wouldn't be as excited as I was for a movie like Captain Marvel.
But we're not here for the millionth negative hack review. You want to know if the movie's good or bad. For most of it,I can’t say it was bad,that's for sure,but just “Cool”. Like,30% Good,30% Bad and 40% Campy as hell.
The script has nothing new to tell for a Female-led movie,but there's enough secondary material that makes it justifiable: A message about Girl Power that blows the “female movies with a message about the power of Love” out of the water,an interesting twist for the Skrulls (the main baddies of the movie) that makes them charismatic villains,and all the 90's campiness that's basically the humor part of the movie (or,for most of it,at last).
Sure,Brie Larson smiles in the movie,but she doesn’t deliver much. Yeah,I liked her performance,but it was in service of a strange script,while Samuel L. Jackson and Goose The Cat were the better characters in here. And hey,the kids were bearable this time. (Come to think of it,there’s so much material to make me tear apart A Wrinkle In Time here!)
The Blockbuster scene is easily the best part in here,and it'll sure be for every movie lover. Pinar Toprak's score is better than I expected it to be (speaking of the orchestra),but it's sometimes a Thor Ragnarok clone with the whole Synthy vibes and classic beats.
Nothing special about the VFX and Production Design. They're just fine,that's all.
Although the use of 3D was fantastic. Visually speaking,when Carol Danvers gets her powers is just as great as the Venom Vs. Riot CG Pan-around from Venom (2018),or maybe I’m just a sucker for visual slow motion greatness…
To top it all,there’s a Stan Lee tribute that is so gut-wrenching,I heard someone almost cried in the theater. (Tears of a true woman/man)
But still,this movie has problems (who would’ve guessed…). For starters,the story isn’t really that interesting (aside the secondary material),since it’s the whole “woman on the journey of self-discovery” thing again. Sometimes the fanservice is unnecessary (like when they explain how Fury lost an eye. We saw that coming MILES away when the cat was announced to be part of this movie) and again,Brie Larson giving it her all for uninteresting character development. And,this isn’t part of the movie,but the fanservice it got pre-release (and post) was toxic as hell. Jesus,not even something like Star Wars The Last Jedi can top this level of hate (but it makes way for an extra point,so thank you haters). In the end,Captain Marvel feels like the Birthday Cake that has nothing delicious on top,but that on the middle and end of it,has enough cream and chocolate to make it a Cool tie at the movies. Catch it in IMAX 3D if you can.

P.S. The mid-credits sequence is destined to blow minds all over the world. Stick until that and not the post-credits one.

O filme é muito bom, engraçado em alguma situações e o gato goose é o melhor personagem do filme, mas eu não gostei da ação do filme muito fraca e o jeito que o nick fury perde o olho, ridiculo. mas ainda assim vale a pena assistir.

Let me start with the bad. Fury feels completely out of character. After the first act he can pretty much be taken out completely.

After the first act he can pretty much be taken out completely. His character is really only there to bind the rest of the MCU together. The whole thing related to how he lost his eye... I wanted to give this movie a Zero. I feel so betrayed by the writers, but ignoring Fury, and the small mishaps, this movie is Actually pretty good. The lead feels out of place almost. She tried to do what works in other super-hero comics/movies rather than own it herself. She makes half baked attempts at quips mid-fight that mostly just leave me wishing they were taken out. This is not Deadpool. This is not Iron man. This is not Spider-man. I felt the comedy that the lead character had was pretty empty. That said, I felt she did a fantastic job As capt Marvel. The character itself has such a wide range of feelings throughout. She had some misses, but enough hits to make up for it. Did she Embody the role of Capt Marvel? Well, no. But she did do a Good enough job. Only other thing I really did not like, was the Kree. Kree find guns as a coward's weapon. We see this materialized in Agents of Shield even. Kree Mock humans for using guns literally all the time... but in this movie... guess what? Kree use guns. like a lot of guns. Feels like a mishap in the writing more than anything, which, again, makes me pretty annoyed with the writers. Are the writers Disney hires even fans of the nerd universe they are writing In? Apart from those, The Scrull were Amazing. The mid-movie twists were Very, Very good, and true to the universe. The Comedy was Mostly spot on, and I did Not like Ragnarok because they threw literally everything at the viewers hoping Something would land. The action was good, albeit the ending climatic fight Was a little short. I would Love to see more of Capt Marvel and her journey, pre Endgame. In short, was the movie the greatest MCU movie made? No. Was it the greatest single hero MCU hero? Well, no. Was it the worst? Definitely not. It is a Solid Entry into the MCU and I welcome it. However, they did mess up an established story of one of the infinity stones and I now need answers. lots of answers. How did it get there? Why did it get there? like what do you mean?!?! Expand

After the catastrophic events of Avengers: Infinity War (and the pleasingly droll interlude of Ant-Man and the Wasp), Marvel Studios take us back to the 90s with Captain Marvel, starring Oscar winner Brie Larson as the titular intergalacticAfter the catastrophic events of Avengers: Infinity War (and the pleasingly droll interlude of Ant-Man and the Wasp), Marvel Studios take us back to the 90s with Captain Marvel, starring Oscar winner Brie Larson as the titular intergalactic hero. It’s a film that certainly has the weight of responsibility firmly on its shoulders; not only is it an origin story packed within the developed third phase of its universe, it acts as both a link to the past (a de-aged Samuel L. Jackson is unnervingly convincing) and a bridge to what is undeniably Marvel’s big event of the year, Avengers: Endgame.
Captain Marvel is entertaining enough; the script may be inconsistent, yet it hits a number of laughs and the cast, from Jude Law to Annette Bening, are a spunky ensemble that bring a bright earnestness to the film. It’s a fairly standard origin story that makes unapologetic use of Marvel’s signature formula, often with results that, whilst usually fun, can’t help but feel slightly circumspect and contained. We watch as Larson’s Vers (as she is known on her supposed home planet of Kree) crashes on Earth, her memories of her past fragmented and her identity thoroughly muddled. This is much like the film’s narrative itself which feels largely scattershot, jumping through flashbacks and glossing quickly over plot points with nonchalance. That being said, the movie is very entertaining, an odd tonal balance of Guardians-of-the-Galaxy-esque retro humour and the bombastic action stakes of Star Wars. Without a doubt, it’s fun, with charm obscuring the more clunky moments in the writing.
Captain Marvel, of course, relies strongly on Brie Larson’s leading performance. Larson is undoubtably a terrific actress who commits wholeheartedly to the role, making the best of the disappointingly little that is given to her. In the end, whilst the scope of her powers are cause for sensation, the character herself feels lost in her own film, attempts at pathos underdone and most of the best moments going to other characters.
The extended players stand out far more, with marvellous turns by Ben Mendelsohn and Lashana Lynch and a star-studded performance from a certain feline. The cast (even Larson to an extent) are the film’s saving grace, carrying the film with a jubilance that can’t help but bring a smile to the face.
Other aspects of the film also shine; the visual effects are polished and a distinctly 90s jukebox soundtrack works well. Far from spending its time in space, most of the film is grounded on good ol’ Planet Earth, packed full of satisfying nods to the period.
All said, Captain Marvel is a tricky film; it can’t help but feel like a stepping stone to the next point of the overall narrative of the universe, a safe and unambitious adventure muddied in franchise building. For me, however, the quirky humour, visual thrills and undeniable sense of fun are enough to give Captain Marvel a watch.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pretty good movie. I wasn't really a fan of what had been said by Brie Larson coming into this movie and wasn't really a fan of the movie making it seem like guys in the military just suck(when they were making fun of her). I thought it had some funny moments and enjoyed the Fury moments. Good performances by Jude Law and Samuel L. Jackson. Also had a very interesting end credit scene. Didn't really enjoy the Skrulls being the good guys and how Fury lost his eye. Expand

I mean sure, it’s pretty different for a marvel movie, but it’s definitely not as bad as The Dark World, Avengers 2, or Ant-Man and the Wasp. Keep in mind, I do acknowledge the film’s problems. Captain Marvel, as a character, is generally uninteresting , although Brie Larson did try to make it work. Also, the plot gets kinda messy every now and then. I think the Skrull and Nick Fury were actually some of the better characters in this movie . Also, Jude Law did a solid job as one of the antagonists. Comparing Captain MArvel to other newly released films, such as Hellboy 2019, I’d say it’s one the better movies. Although it isn’t as good as Shazam. Walking out of the theater, I felt like I watched one of JJ Abrams Star Trek movies. Mostly because JJ’s take on Star Trek was good, but it didn’t really feel like Star Trek. Captain Marvel didn’t really feel like the traditional marvel movie, and that’s ok with me. Ever since Infinity War came out, it seems as if Marvel has went in a more serious direction. Like how the avengers and others struggled with their connections and emotions, and how they handled them. Captain Marvel is basically a glimpse at what phase 4 of Marvel will be. Not everything will be about fighting, sometimes a person greatest enemy is themselves, that sort of thing. Combine that with good actors and ambitious directors, I believe Captain Marvel is setting us up for something really exciting, and I don’t just mean Endgame. 7/10 you guys are just salty. Expand

The flash backs for what C.Marvel had for modivation didnt consist of the suffering as a soldier but as a girl growing up in the 90s. Most of flash back was just awful of the tired out "girls cant do ___," which used only 1 group of specific people to portray Carol's past of being a victim. It felt shallow and unnecessary to add those scenes and more insulting that they were all white men. We all suffered from bullying from various people, but the director specifically focused on that and it's obvious it was for pandering purposes. Felt insulting to anyone who wasnt a privilege white girl. Expand

I was bummed there wasn't an IMAX 3D version, as I had to pick between Dolby Cinema, IMAX, or 3D. We went with the IMAX showing, mainly cause the other versions were mostly sold out.

Overall, I thought it was a decent entry into the Marvel Universe. Despite all the pre-release hubbub, I found it wasn't that bad. Since it's set in the 90's before all the other Marvel films, they were able to build an origin story without worrying much of the pre-built universe. You're introduced to a new alien race called the Skrull and also get a better look at the Kree in this film (previously seen in Guardians of the Galaxy). The storyline was somewhat predictable and I wish they spent more time showing some of Ronan the Accuser in earlier years. If you're going to bring a bad-ass villain back, he should play a bigger role, rather than 5mins of screen time to fill in story plot.

I think Brie Larson as Captain Marvel will be a good addition to the Avengers in Endgame and interested in seeing how they build her character in Phase 4 of the Marvel Universe. Also, the film gives some backstory to characters like Nick Fury and Agent Coulson which was cool. The special effects are on par with what you'd expect with any Marvel film. Soundtrack was mediocre. For being set in the 90's, there was plenty of good songs they could've picked from, but I won't be buying this soundtrack anytime soon. They also incorporate other 90's nostalgia with things like Blockbuster, Radio Shack, pagers, band tshirts like Nine Inch Nails, and a web cafe seen where Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel) uses Alta Vista as a search engine. There's also a shout out to The Fresh Prince.

Worth seeing on the big screen? Sure. Was it the best Marvel movie ever? Not really. Definitely worth seeing before Avengers: Endgame as I assume Captain Marvel will play a decent size role in taking on Thanos.

Captain Marvel was good...
When I say good I mean theres a line or a certain standard for what makes a good marvel movie and you know as well as I that Marvel throws movies every year probably i'd say 3 a year maybe more and thats insane so not every one of them meets a standard for some people or fans theres either they will watch this movie again and again or analyze it to death or just watch it once and leave it there. So this movie is in that line of standard ok it is right on that line I don't see it as sub par or bad even terrible its okay its watchable you can enjoy it it will probably feel monotonous but its a hero movie and yes there are different vibes for a herop movie but this is not that movie hell if anything this movie makes its character super broken because she is but against a movie like wonder woman where there is a certain struggle and conflict with characters well... you wont get much form Carol Danvers she is tough man like no joke powers or not a lot of people can get behind that so bad reviews and allegations aside i being comepletely honest it is an all right movie. You'll have laughs, few gasps some long awaited answers and cravings.

This movie is good but at the same time it is mediocre. I think it is not necessary to watch this movie to understand the "End game". Sometimes it's a bit of a feminist with no sense coming out of the context but it's not a very bad movie.

Brie Larson does a great job bringing this character to life for the first time on the big screen. It has great character moments especially from Sam L. Jackson and Brie Larson. It is action-pacted, funny and also really well made. Even though it may fall flatt at times, it is still a great origin story that feels original and fresh. Expand

Seeing Captain Marvel on screen is one of the highlights of this era. Sure, the movie isn't perfect, but it is very good. It spends just enough time setting you up and defies the worn-out origin story to deliver something fresher than we've seen before.

There is plenty of room for folks not to like a thing -- I get that -- but the concerted effort by a few disgruntled troglodytes should not factor into your decision about whether or not to see this film. If the idea of an empowered female superhero upsets you, then, yeah, this movie isn't for you. For everyone else, enjoy the movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie needed to answer the question "who is Captain Marvel?" for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Franky speaking, the character of Carol Danvers is a mess in the comics. She's had an inconsistent power set, personality, and the details of her origin story have shifted several times. However, a few things have remained consistent. She's a soldier. She's strong. And she's a hero.

This movie introduces us to Carol through the well-worn trope of "lose and regain memories". This is probably inspired by Uncanny X-Men (see #154, 158, 164, 171) where Carol loses her emotional connection to her own memories. But I believe it helps set the correct tone for Brie Larson's performance:
- Her mentor (Yon-Rogg = Jude Law) criticizes her for being too emotional.
- The Supreme Intelligence of the Kree is supposed to take the form of "who we admire most", but Carol doesn't remember the person shown before her.
- Carol expresses that she doesn't know who she is, and is often captivated by photographs or other pieces of her identity throughout the film.

This is consistent with the Carol Danvers of the comics, who is usually cold and uncharismatic. However, this would be a poor choice of personality for the namesake of the Marvel franchise, so the movie's central arc is well-chosen: Carol begins as an "alien" and becomes "human". She starts as a Kree warrior tasked with mercilessly combating the Skrull, but gradually recovers her past and grows compassionate enough to listen to the other side of the story and help the Skrull leader reunite with his family.

The movie has strange pacing to further realize this arc, alternating between action sequences and moments of self-discovery. The characters must tell "details so specific a Skrull could not reproduce them" about themselves in order to prove their identity. Personal details emerge in the excellent banter between Fury and Danvers. And Carol is confronted with a literal "box full of memories" when she finds her long-lost best friend Maria. Seeing Carol go from initially not recognizing Monica to reconnecting with "Lt. Trouble" is precisely the sort of development needed to make Carol human.

All of this is intended to communicate the character of Carol Danvers, and causes the movie to have a unique texture. The stakes become "who is Captain Marvel?" rather than "will she win?" It's an unconventional way to tell an origin story, but I felt it was effective.

---

A few other stray thoughts:
- My main criticism of other MCU movies is poor imitation of Joss Whedon's style of comedy (releasing tension falsely). Captain Marvel appropriately uses humorous moments to endear us to the characters.
- There were a few lines of dialogue that were too on-the-nose and broke my immersion, but they were brief and forgivable.
- I was not convinced by Brie Larson in the trailers, but she captured the essence of Captain Marvel.
- Making the Skrull sympathetic was a surprising reversal of expectations.
- The choice of music didn't work in a couple spots.
- The effects are excellent as usual, but the photon-based powers are particularly impressive.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've seen Captain Marvel twice now, and I actually liked it better on second viewing. I went into the movie very apprehensive that the studio would blow it and make huge mistakes with this movie given the historic opportunity, like DC did by cramming too much mess into Batman vs. Superman (very obvious that movie was "made by committee" instead of the actual director). But I was pleasantly surprised that it turned out to be a solid entry into the Marvel movie universe. Fun and entertaining, Brie Larson's character is at her best and most enjoyable self when engaging in Carol's snarky sarcastic side. CGI & special effects are excellent, actually better than many CGI scenes in Black Panther. The only real complaints I had are: The color of Danver's green "Kree military" suit. I just don't like that color, it's flat.

The de-aging CGI on Samuel L. Jackson was fantastic, but on Clark Gregg's Agent Coulson it was HORRIBLE. His face looked plastic and fake, bad enough it almost took me out of the movie on first viewing.

Bad science regarding an impromptu "retrofit" of an earth jet craft to make it not only worthy of space travel, but escape velocity?! Come on that's like upgrading a Cessna to go into space. Other than these relatively minor problems, it was a solid, fun movie! Very satisfying to finally see Captain Marvel realize her full potential and BREAK LOOSE. Go see it and judge for yourself! Solid 8 out of 10 stars for me.

Well it's my opinion that Captain Marvel sits smack bang right in the middle which is no bad thing as at the end of the day I really enjoyed it which to be honest surprised me given how mixed the reviews have been.
I think the only sin this movie committed was to allow itself to be hijacked by two armies of public opinion who are using the Movie in the same manner two Parents stuck in a bitter divorce would use a poor Child in a silly game of one upmanship.
It's my hope the Movie can stay the course and come out with the success it deserves as I would love to see more of Brie in this role.

I did not particularly like the look of the movieOK, Firstly I would like to say that I went into this movie with low to medium expectations. I am a huge fan of the MCU and was very interested with how Captain Marvel would fit into it all. I did not particularly like the look of the movie based on the trailers nor was I a fan of Brie Larson. There has been so much internet talk on feminist agendas, SJW etc etc. That is why I was so pleasantly surprised with this movie. I really liked it and believe it is a worthy addition to the MCU. I thought LARSON was great and I loved the easter eggs and link ups to the rest of the MCU. A lot of people are complaining about certain things which I wont specify due to spoilers, but I think they are over reacting and I still think it all fits justifiably.

The de-aging CGI work on Samuel L Jackson and Clark Gregg was phenomenal, you honestly just forgot they had done it. Probably the biggest surprise and standout for me was Ben Mendelsoh, he was so good in this and you could tell he just loved playing the role.

The humor was good, nothing too drastically different from any other marvel movie. Some common complaints are that the humor was bad, but I think it was dry humor so went over some peoples heads maybe. It certainly wasn't silly joke heavy like Thor Ragnarok. If you are a fan of the MCU then I think you will like this movie. It is not the best MCU movie, but it is certainly up there, I want to say top 5, but I think being honest it would be more top 10.

For those worried about feminist agendas and SJW pandering....You can stop worrying..There really isn't anything like that. There was a 90's song playing to a fight scene which was probably the cringiest part for me, but ultimately the most it touches on is about the character, Carol Danvers and her struggles as a woman trying to work her way into the air force. Its not feminist agendas, it is just the reality of that sort of thing, especially in the 90's. (actually that part was set in the 80's, 1989).

The post credit scenes and the Stan lee tributes are worth admission alone. I am looking forward to watching it again as soon as possible.

They've balanced the character well considering the power involved. She's powerful but still has a human element. Good performance from Brie, Jude & Jackson. Mendelsohn was great. Worth it and looking forward to End Game. Expand

score is forgettable and felt a bit rushed towards the end.
Bre Larson does a decent job portraying the head strong, cocky and at times witty. performance as a whole could have been better but I loved the chemestry between her and Samuel l Jackson. and are some of my favorite parts.
The supporting cast was amazing Samuel Jackson, Lashana Lynch, Ben Mendobah. Fight scenes were creative and suspenseful though at times funny.
space battles looked great and the CGI looked fine.
The story was nothing new but done well
I'm glad they avoided certain cliches that most moves do today for example in wonder woman Gal Gado walk around like and idiot even trying on dresses for like a half hour but here the main character lands and immediately acts like the soldier she is and wants to communicate with HQ and continue her mission.
One of the first scenes in the movie which involves Carols memories shows a clever way to show us some back story of the character while showing us what kind of person she is while also progressing the story.
Is this the greatest hero movie?
not at all, but it's a good movie and I recommend watching it if your a fan of the MCU.
If your not you could still get some enjoyment out of the film from the humor and action pieces alone.
and I am giving this movie a 6/10

I'm noticing a lot of Brie Larson haters in the negative reviews ... almost as if some of these "reviewers" just made accounts to disparage her. Worse than Iron Man 3? hardly. I will say not as good as Captain America Civil War, Thor Ragnarok, Black Panther, or Avengers Infinity War... Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Captain Marvel is the 21st movie of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It starred Brie Larson as Carol Danvers/Vers/Captain Marvel, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Jude Law as Yon-Rogg and more casts. The story started in 1995 on the Kree Empire's capital planet of Hala, Vers had nightmares. To be honest, it wasn't a good beginning but it wasn't forgettable. Next scenes were quite forgettable because they showed nothing special so I couldn't remember much of it. I could remember when she met Fury with 2 agents at the Blockbuster Video shop (wasn't it? I can't remember). When she was captured by Talos and other Skrulls, we were fooled by the movie (we though the Skrulls were villains). They tried to change Vers' memory (surely that could be remembered by most people, I think). The others scene till the end of the movie was not bad but a few people could remember many. The story plot was not bad at all. Started in a planet, a young woman trying to find out who she was and took a lot of risks to restore her memory, surely audiences from the 90s would like that but for me, it was medium like a 7.5/10. Bet the 90s would like it more than I do. Brie Larson was set to be the main character in this movie. But unfortunately, she didn't try her best to prove that Carol Danvers (or Vers) was main in here. I know she could do a lot better like in Room (2015), she won Best Actress. But in here, the MCU didn't take this movie seriously enough to make Carol the main character. However, they did some marvelous CGI effects of Vers' powers and others. They were quite like real with no mistakes. The final battle was thrilling, full with power beams and other CGI, nothing was bad and I was actually impressed. The right thing they did was to add humor to the movie. Luckily, there was Samuel L. Jackson, so things went okay! (also with Goose the 'cat') Even though there were hilarious scenes, I laughed a little and I think they should do more. While watching the movie, I was bored for some time like in conversations, for example. They were really boring but to make things impressive, they did a lot better at the end even though the fight scenes weren't that epic. So to summarize this, I would like to say that Captain Marvel (2019) isn't one of the greatest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it was funny, entertaining (at the end) but I bet the audiences of the 21st century wouldn't like it. Sorry Larson, the movie was fine but you didn't try your best in here!
Points from me: 7.3/10

She didn't seem to learn anything other than "oh im stronger with my emotions I was right all along to use my powers all the time and put all of my emotion into it." Which honestly isn't really... meaningful. Brie Larson, while a good actor in Scott Pilgrim Verses The World, Seems to still be as dead faced as when she played Kim Pine. A role meant to be dead and lifeless. Nick Fury had alright moments but I think that this movie in total was just boring and not fun at all. Marvel set a bar and they just didn't reach it with this one mediocre film. Expand

Great 90s nostalgia vibe (I know the soundtrack wasn't as well received as the GotG song choices but CM has a solid selection, very appropriate to the era, and let's face it, the 90s was hardly the golden era of music. Good selection all the same). Some fantastic fights, particularly the scene where Carol fights while sprinting through a Skrull ship with her hands trapped and no shoes on! It was comedic but also very well executed, a brawly sort of fight which highlights her impulsive nature but also her brute strength (and this is before she reaches peak-power!). The "flash-back/dream sequence" was very cleverly executed, I liked how Marvel chose to break from their usual linear storytelling and instead Carol's "origin story" plays out backwards (we meet a high-powered amnesiac "Vers" and we work backwards to unravel the mystery of where Carol has come from and who she is. It was an interesting change and well executed in my opinion). The supporting cast are all marvellous, Fury, Coulson, Maria & Monica, Goose, Yon-Rogg and Talos all deliver solid performances. Despite the vocal minority of dissenters, Carol lives up to her hashtag and smashed into cinemas #HigherFurtherFaster than many of her MCU colleagues, breaking $1billion in the box off in the blink of an eye. Well earned and I'm looking forward to seeing her character grow. Expand

One more Captain has arrived

Yeah it was something like an empty slot between the lifetime of Captain America and the main events where all the Avengers are involved. And here we go, back to 1995, to introduce Ms Captain. Mar-Vel, a superlady with a curious lifepath, full of misteries and amnesia.

Pros. The movie is doing its job as a prequel pretty well. It adds a chunk of prehistory to the Marvel Universe. You can see the connection with the Gardians of the Galaxy, Thor and of course it tells a lot about S.H.I.E.L.D.

Talking about SHIELD. Samuel L Jaekson is absolutely awesome! His young character is so well performed, thanks to makeup team and the actor himself. It's very interesting to see Nick Fury's early age, young and less experienced.

Lol. The Captain Marvel throws few jokes, which are actually not bad. Many characters can make you if not laugh, but at list smile or grin for sure. And it feels much better than when all the funny part accumulated in one person. Being too serious about what's going on is the worst enemy of superhero movies. Along with a lack of a good plot of course.

The scenario is ok. It is interesting to watch, and even there are few surprises in it. It is a good thing when a movie can break your expectations a little bit.

Cons. The acting part. Particularly, Brie Larson and Jude Law. It is not like too bad.. But I just don't see those roles suit them. Brie makes me believe she is a girl from Earth, but I don't know... Maybe lack of charisma, or something else do not let me see her as a right Captain Marvel. With Jude Law it is even harder. Noone can tell he is not charismatic. But I just don't see him in fantastic genre at all.

The battles. Somebody behind the scenes give some help for the good guys. Seriously, why not to give more natural look to all those fights. Why antagonists prefer talking instead of trying to kill when they have a chance? Agh.

Anyway. Still if you are a Marvel fan, you should watch it. I find it somewhere in the middle between good and bad.

Let the film speak for itself. The dynamicCaptain Marvel is by far one of the best origins story films released by the MCU, alongside Black Panther and a few classics. All the controversy surrounding this film is truly just background noise. Let the film speak for itself. The dynamic between Carol and Fury is entertaining, the story itself is engaging, and there’s a cute cat (always a bonus). This film is not only a story about Captain Marvel but a story about the avengers, Nick Fury, and the Kree. It provides context for all other films in the MCU and is undoubtedly an important film to watch if you plan on seeing other Marvel films in the future. I’ve heard people describe Carol as emotionless, but I struggle to see where exactly in the film she is being emotionless. She’s a soldier trying to follow her orders, but the film is about her overcoming barriers and following her heart while also learning the extent of her power. Overall, I would say I enjoyed everything about the film. The 90s set pieces, the beautiful CGI that was added to the fight scenes, the story, and the acting itself. An absolute must-see. Expand

Captain Marvel is the new arguable marvel movie that follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe's most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races.
Captain Marvel was actually a fun ride as any marvel movie before; it builds a great origin story for its lead character. If you’re looking to be entertained this is your movie, featuring some good action sequences and Brie Larson in her full badass mode. The fight sequences lacked in some scenes, they weren’t memorable like other marvel movies. I understand that when you have a character as powerful as Carol Danvers in your movie, you might face some difficulties in that aspect. Plus, from a technical perspective there are scenes where you really can’t identify who’s fighting who due to the color aspect and CGI which was buggy. The CGI de-aging tech used on Clark Gregg and Samuel L. Jackson was incredible too! One of the best parts of the movie was Talos played by Ben Mendelsohn who really stole the show with his amazing performance and his important role in the movie, and Goose the cat which is outstanding and very funny at times. The chemistry between Sameul L. Jackson and Brie Larson was perfect, one of the best buddy cop relationships. Looking forward to seeing them on screen together in the future!
The story of the movie took some turns and featured some insane plot twists. It did feel like a Memento-Christopher Nolan movie in some scenes which failed miserably. It is very risky when a character tries to recover their memories and past in films. When a lead character is lost in the movie and their backstory takes too much time to uncover, then viewers would definitely be lost too! As for Carol Danvers’s character,
she was a born bad-ass! But, in almost all MCU movies we see our characters face difficulties in their starting days like Captain America, Iron Man, and Black Panther. All these characters went through a lot to reach there full potentials. But, I can understand that Carol is a very powerful character and it’s very hard to write her better than that. In addition, Captain Marvel doesn’t fail in its core. Marvel succeeds in building an inspiring and interesting character and Captain Marvel broadens the MCU’s history in a very unique way. Now, I’m really hyped to see Brie Larson reprise her role as Carol in Avengers: Endgame, as the movie didn’t impact her character’s purpose in any way.
The music in the movie gave us the 90s feel, and I didn’t think any song was out of place. The soundtrack influenced the movie’s time period and action scenes.
So, we recommend you to go check out Captain Marvel and to form your own opinion. Do not let other haters/critics affect yours!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Here is a note for future superhero movies, there is a character arc that is needed to have a successful heroes journey. Superpowered warrior to superpowered amnesiac is not a character arc it is flatline. The adversity here is her amnesia? The Kree, her people? Its a muddled mess with a clear pro immigration agenda not paying tribute to anything in the comics and conflates the original hero (Mar-Vell) with Yon-Rogg (villain) that makes any semblance of a story unrecognizable. If you want flashy things going bang then go to a fireworks show, a movie is supposed to be about story and this has a disjointed mess with an unlikeable star. Its a shame because she was likeable in Community and playing a quirky, nerdy girl seems to be her main talent pool-she should have been squirrel girl not Captain Marvel. Someone thought Marvel movies were about explosions and flashy effects when they were missing the real character flaws, acting ability and charm movies need to be successful Expand

Brie Larson has as much charisma in this film as a cardboard box that was used to ship the script to her. The supporting cast diid well to try lift the film from the terrible performance of a leading lady that obviously didn't want to do this film, because the target material for this film so obviously doesn't play to the demographic that she wants to do films for, It is obvious Brie Larson had no interest in Marvel Comics and the MCU before this film and it shows in her performance. If you compare this to Wonder Woman, which quite frankly is seriously a much better film in every way, where Gal Gadot embraced the character and source material and made an excellent movie. If Brie Larson's Captain Marvel is the future of the MCU then the future is bleak, mediocre films, plots and wooden performances will ruin a franchise that has been developed over the last decade or so. Brie Larson has made this version of Captain Marvel less likeable than Ebola both on an off the screen. The best thing Marvel and Disney can do to prevent the impending train wreck is a subtle last minute rewrite to the end Avengers Endgame where Brie Larson's Captain Marvel is replaced with actress that actually can act and has a likeable personality.
