Feminist trash, the cat is the only good part. They really are ruining comic book backstorys and character traits, in light of a new PC movement.

Marvel is normally good at special effects and they make sure you will notice, due to the amount of it they are packing in their movies, that isn't a problem though.

Carol Danvers is casted well and the action is also pretty fun, but also seems a little bit too hectic sometimes. The plot twist isn't surprising at all and the flash backs are also more annoying than informative. I didn't like the humor in this movie at all. The nearly forced jokes made me laugh pretty rarely and also the emotional moment didn't quite always catch me as they should. But don't get me wrong Captain Marvel as a movie isn't a complete failure, but I know Marvel can do better.… Expand

they could cut 50 % out of this movie and the story would still be the same. The movie is so damn slow that you want to sleep. the Actor doing a great job but the story is a mass failure. Its the same story as in Iron Man but with less action.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Despite some of the controversy about this movie and along with Larson, I thought it was pretty alright. The plot doesn't make sense in some cases, and there are some contrived moments, such as the fact that Nick Fury, a man who has a high ranking in SHEILD, is dispatched to a strange event at a Blockbuster along with a rookie. I did however really like the twist that the Kree were the villains the whole time, and Carol was brainwashed by them to fight against the "enemy" which were really just refugees. There are some funny moments in this movie. Perhaps not as much as other MCU movies, but it is refreshing to not have the characters quip every 2 sentences like in Thor: Love and Thunder. Carol is a bit overpowered at the end, but to be fair the final confrontation between her and Yon-Rogg was pretty funny because of how easily she blasted him away. This movie certainly deserves more than a 3.0, which was the overall audience score at the time that I write this.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So what makes this movie bad? Well, we can start with the fact that they completely destroyed the original Captain Marvel’s story. Mar-Vell is a he, and he saved Carol’s life with his own blood. Not only did they neuter Mar-Vell and turn him into an old woman, but they took his caring and selfless act and made it a twisted manipulation play by the kree. The kind of feminism at play in this “captain marvel” is not the kind you’d find in a respectable female-driven movie like Black Widow. No, this is the virulent, spiteful, arrogant, man-hating kind that really doesn’t show a woman’s best features at play, but really some of the worst. No serious self-reflection. No respect for her natural limits and what makes a woman a woman. No, it’s the kind of woman that really and actually resents being a woman. The kind of woman that really wants to be a man, and can’t help but relish in being overpowered so she can dish out her perceived slights, insecurity, and general overall inferiority complex on anyone not female in either subtle or explicit ways. And if it’s not her doing it, well then the director’s gonna play deus ex machina and make sure all you get from this movie is “girls rule, boys drool.” Sure, Ms. Marvel eventually becomes the posterwoman for women’s grievances in the comics, and thus she becomes a butchered and battered character over time in order to become the epitome of women’s suffering…but that’s not Captain Marvel’s origin story. Ms. Marvel doesn’t even start out like that. Why not just respect the original story? Why not just show Captain Marvel saving Carol and training her to be Ms. Marvel and then do an amazing spinoff with an amazing leading lady in Ms. Marvel who eventually takes the reigns after the original Captain Marvel’s death? Ridiculous pseudo-feminism, that’s why. Propaganda and screeching at the sky trying to force everyone to agree with you because you’re entitled to be treated more seriously than you deserve or are actually entitled to. TLDR: This movie throws out the tesseract plot thread of phase one and makes Nick Fury look like an idiot pawn that somehow stumbled into a position of power; Continuous cheap shots at men and terrible lessons for women; misplaced 90s hits splattered throughout at a vain attempt to make the movie cooler than it was; disrespectful of the actual initial plot and character development of Mar-Vell and Carol Danvers; and finally, just the overall fact that the movie did not even need to exist. It added NOTHING to the overall plot and left a bad taste in the mouths of any reasonable and tasteful individual that actually cares for things like character/plot development and coherent storytelling.… Expand

Most has already been said and I agree, it is the worst marvel movie to date because the main character is a Mary Sue. She simply has no hero journey, she is basically invincible, uber powerful and all that is holding her back is toxic masculinity. Once she overcomes this (took her long enough, a whole movie actually) nothing will ever be able to stand in her way again. That is the recipe for a boring movie, a bland character and a lot of hate from the fans. Black Widow is beloved by all, because she has to struggle, she grows, she changes, she entertains, she values her friends, male and female alike, and she is not a plot device to drive home a political message.… Expand

En effet quand on le regarde a posteriori de tous les dramas qu’il y a eu on se rend compte que c’était vraiment que des clivages politiques inintéressants Le développement de l'héro est donc plutôt réussi à mon sens

L’écriture est pas mal aussi, je trouve que ça change de la formule habituel des films de super-héros à base de bagarre -> humour -> émotions -> bagarre -> humour -> émotions. Ça se mélange bien ici en tout cas c’est le ressenti que j’ai eu Ensuite, niveau fx ça en jette on voit directement que c’est assez récent, ça donne quelque chose de plus a captain Marvel Concernant le scénario c’est pas dingue mais bon si on va voir un film de super-héros on ne s'attend pas à plus, malheureusement Mais dans la chronologie Marvel c’est un bon point au final parce que ça laisse une ouverture pour la suite (j’essaye de défendre le scénar comme je peux)… Expand

There are definitely some great moments with Nick Fury (I am not saying I want a Nick Fury solo movie, please, don't make that a thing) and I really enjoyed some of the moments with the Skrull played by Ben Mendelsohn, but on the whole I found the movie to be a bit lackluster. Certainly not the weakest movie in Marvels line-ups (Thor 2 and Captain America 1 have that privilege) but it just generally wasn't on par with what you expect from Marvel after they have had over a decade to perfect the formula.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If we compare ''Captain Marvel'' with others superheroes movies, we can conclude that ''Captain Marvel'' is the worst character story, all Marvel superheroes movies show the early life of superhero at the beginning, and then how he/she obtains the superpower as a forward story, but ''Captain Marvel'' started backwardly, at the beginning she already has a superpower, but she doesn't remember anything about how she got it, until the end when she finds out how she obtained it. I think the writers made a different a style of superhero movie to surprise the audience with some twist in the story, but they failed because it was a bad twist and no one surprised or impressed, they could make a wonderful, emotional and enjoyable movie if they just make it forward and clear (showing her early life, not as a flashback, until she becomes a "Captain Marvel'').

I read a lot of negative reviews, and I think most audiences hated ''Captain Marvel'' due to many factors:
1- Less action than other Marvel movies.
2- Released after the masterpiece ''Avengers: infinite war'', so all marvel audience were expecting same or more from ''Captain Marvel.''
3- Her power wasn't special, it's almost like '''Superman.''
4- Lack of humor.
5- Not following straight forward story as same as other superhero movies.

Finally, ''Captain Marvel' is just a TV movie, not good and not bad, if you are one of marvel audience you will not like it, but if you just want to watch a superhero movie maybe you will enjoy a little.… Expand

But marvel films are excellent so this is a real disappointment and a shock. It's technically well made with good acting (mostly), excellent cgi (except the cat) , fun music and decent direction and the de-aging process is incredible....but the writing ...well it's trash. The script is ok for a popcorn summer film but the story is just garbage. Really poor...stupid and offensive to all that came before. I'd say it wasn't a marvel film at all...more a mar vel movie (in joke ...one of the few). I don't know what happened if I guessed I'd say it was rushed. It feels and looks rushed. If I'm being honest as a huge fan of shield it's like the best shield episode ever. It looks and feels like an extended shield episode. Not a bad thing but why bother being a film. Also there is some pc nonsense going on but nothing too offensive. I don't know the comics or care and I don't care about having to see or read additional info to understand the film ...that's just lazy film making. There isn't too much of that but enough to add to the overall poor quality of the movie. The post credits junk is also...well just nothing special. All of it serves better films.

Brie Larson. Yes she is named after a cheese but she is competent as Cpt Marvel. I like her but I felt she was out of place here. She never felt truly anything beyond lost and confused. Wonder Woman and cat Woman have been way more bad ass. So is it worth your time? No its not but that's the problem ....You have to watch this dumb lazy unoriginal creatively dearth film to move on to the next and final one. That wasn't a problem when they were all awesome and even thor managed to improve. But it is a problem when the film is so average and boring and just meh. Watch it once and forget about it. This is no Avengers or Antman or Planet hulk or Cpt America or Ironman...just not in the same league though it is the same universe.

I didn't hate the film but it's the worst type of film....a film which does nothing new and adds nothing to your life. A waste of potential, talent, time and money. Overall A for Average 5/10.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Definition of painfully average movie. If this is the answer to Wonder Woman, you lost. Brie Larson is no character, no emotions and all the "shtick" with her controlling emotions is completely lost in the movie. If protagonist has no weaknesses, she is boring. She has no character arch whatsoever and the only thing she does from start till end is "remember things" and help the Scrolls that should have been done by Mar Vel anyway. Movie is not boring, because everything else BUT the main character is great. I liked the side characters, especially Fury. But that's it. The more characters you introduce in past, the more plot holes you open. Fury losing eye was strangely done and all the feminism nods were completely unnecessary. Show good female hero people can relate. dont tell that we have to relate .be-ca-use she is a woman hero. Post credit scene 1 was good, 2 was ok. But best part of this movie were definity references and Stan Lee. Also, what is wrong with marketing this movie, Brie Larson saying no interviews with white people and promoting divisive politics? I guess this is why negative reviews are so many here.… Expand

Maybe one thing: there's no real explanation of how she gets to the level of power she has in the end. I know many comicbooky "explanations" of these things are pretty stupid, but they're almost always better that no explanation at all. So 1 point lost for that. And ofc 1 point lost for being a popcorn-movie and not having the kind of depth and character development some other superhero shows have shown possible (Unbreakable or Jessica Jones the series).

As already noted by others, the man-babies are already all over this one, trashing its rating like that's going to make a difference. I think many of us have already learned to give even more attention to these not-white-male-glorifying shows if they end up having obviously manipulated low ratings like this - it's becoming a positive sign in itself. :))… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I went into this movie unbiased. However, I did hear good and bad reviews from many sources. I feel that this movie is well below the standard for Marvel movies, but then again we were subjected to X-Men. All in all this was a mediocre movie that had a lot of predictable situations. There was pretty much one shock moment, but it wasn't even that significant. It wasn't built upon and the shock was delivered in such a way that you didn't really care. This movie is a one-time watch and I would recommend this movie if you are bored, or if you are on an airplane. Otherwise, there isn't a great reason to watch this movie. Lastly, how this movie was shoehorned into Endgame was offensive. Had this movie delivered on all fronts, then I would be all for it, but it did not.

The beginning was awfully slow. Carol just crash lands into a blockbuster, but without hesitation immediately hijacks a telephone to communicate to her very distant team. Doesn't make any sense if you think about it. If she needed to communicate locally (on Earth) then that is one thing, but she was communicating through the vastness of space. This is not on the character Carol, this is specifically on the director of this film. In combination to this the chase felt empty, like it was fit in just as a filler, but then the slight twist of the Skrull; which again kind of was just there. So they could have delivered a more solid intro to the Skrull and what the are capable of.

Next would be the sub-par humor. Although, some parts were okay, but for the most part it felt like lines were added at the last moment - "oh, let's add X here because it sounds good" which it was meh at best.

The cat and Nick Fury was more annoying, overplayed, and forced. It became obnoxious and I really wanted to skip over those parts. There were a couple shots were it was incredibly extended and cringy. I hate to use the term "cringe" but it fits like a glove in this situation. The addition to this cat thing, omg how Nick Fury lost his eye is beyond disappointing and utterly stupid - can't say anymore because I will become frustrated.

One key theme about this entire movie is Carol does not experience failure at all. She has small struggles, but nothing similar to a good story. In fact, these minor struggles she goes through aren't relatable. Towards the end she is literally the female version of Superman, without the failures and significant struggles. I also noticed that the music was GOD AWFUL. The terrible music caused more harm to a couple fight scenes than did good. It completely put me off. It was definitely pre-sec elected for this film because it just did not fit at all, for the movie and especially for the moment.

The antagonist(s) in this movie. What? Who? Yeah, they weren't even powerful or nearly gave Carol a run for her money. Completely underwhelming. There were two points in the film I thought a decent fight was going to happen, but nope. Yon-Rogg challenged her and she took the coward way out. Then Ronan appeared, then he disappeared. Like.. come on!

Mar Vel in the 80's was male. Why all of a sudden is Mar Vel a woman? I dunno. I minor thing, but please stick to the story. The last negative part is Brie Larson. I just did not feel it. It was like a bread stick attempting to dance. She brought no charisma or excitement into the role. Had it been Gal Gadot, this movie would have been much much different.

There is a lot of negativity here, but the good was the graphics. They were outstanding and how Carol looked in full power mode was pretty sick. Also, the teal color to the weapons were awesome too.

I truly do wish I could add to the positive paragraph above, but there really isn't much else I can add. :(

To wrap up, I will be generous here and give this movie a 4/10, but I really want to lean towards a 3/10. Watch it if you are bored, but skip out on the popcorn.… Expand

Besides the super powers, all the best goalies in the galaxy and Iron Man are there. I must say that I do not really know what to tell so much movies are alike. I am sad to see that the risk taking is limited, but that the evolution of visual quality is very present. Holograms are a bit like black panther without the metallic and gray aspect. Beside the main character is not so captain but Fury and I must say that this actor plays the game to the end. This film can be positioned second in the Marvel environment. And in the last Thanos will take a power that will make him dance.

Captain Marvel un nouveau encore... reste plus beaucoup de ces films avant end game. Cette héroïne ne possède rien de particulier. À part les super pouvoirs, tout le meilleur des gardiens de la galaxie et d'Iron Man s’y retrouve. Je dois dire que je ne sais pas vraiment quoi raconter tellement les films se ressemblent. Je suis triste de voir que la prise de risque est limitée, mais que l'évolution qualité des visuels est très présente. Les hologrammes sont un peut comme black panthère sans l'aspect métallique et gris. À côté le personnage principal n'est pas tellement captain mais Fury et je dois dire que cette acteur joue le jeu jusqu’au bout. On peut positionner ce film en deuxième dans l'environnement Marvel.

While the movie was not god awful it felt Meh, the CGI was vomitNot Marvels best work just like Black Panther, it was watchable but only once. I didn't much care for some of the red conning basically all things that had to do with Fury.
While the movie was not god awful it felt Meh, the CGI was vomit inducing at few points feels like they gave that job to the e-team, the acting was so stiff at points that I thought the actors were planks of wood. Especially Brie after she unleashed her powers she just felt like a tabula rasa, and not to mention she was both powerful but also weak pretty much the same as in Avengers Endgame. I think the writers have no idea how to write her character and her powers.
The feminists points were annoying but luckily there weren't too many but every time there was it wasn't well executed like in Wonder Woman, it was forced and I doubt anyone truly related to her because of that. Reason mostly being that the arrogance of Capt Marvel was off the charts similar to Tony Stark, but unlike Tony she never had as powerful of a scene of the "Oh my God, what have I done" she didn't feel really regretful of killing the Skrulls. She had about 10 second scene where she had the Hollywood "sexy cry" moment but then she just thought okay, time to kill some Kree next without any mercy or remorse. Could have this ever been done as a good movie? Probably not, because even in the comic world Capt Marvel isn't a much liked character due to her tendency to jump into conclusions and getting characters killed and acting like she is the boss so to say.
In the end, Meh movie wouldn't watch it again and honestly there is no reason for anyone to watch this since it doesn't add anything to Endgame.… Expand

- Marvel films usually have a number of storyline threads running but never has a film of the scale able to handle its political message so seamlessly. The message put forth by the directors weren’t subtle but they were forced and most importantly they didn’t get in the way of us seeing Captain Marvel just kick some ass.

- The humour for example was there, Ben Mendelson rose to this while I felt Bree Larson could not match the lofty expectations of Tom Holland or Robert Downey Jr.

- Larsons lack of comedic chops did lead on into further issues I had with the performance. Due to the magnitude of the environment at times, I felt Larson was just too small. She has undoubted charisma and I will never deny her talent but I felt she didn’t have the blockbuster presence that is required for a Marvel film, and will be an even bigger issue when she is forced to be part of the ensemble.

- Surprising most of all is the film is not necessarily written (Nicole Perlman, Meg LeFauve, Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck & Genevan Robertson-Dworet) just as an origin piece for Captain Marvel, it also touches on the birth of the Avenger initiative and even for Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg)

No hay mucho que discutir de Captain Marvel con Brie Larson como protagonista. Carol Denvers es parte de un fuerza militar élite Kree en la que Yon-Rogg, interpretado por Jude Law, ayuda a Carol a controlar sus poderes e impulsos y, al mismo tiempo, es entrenada para luchar una guerra en contra de los Skrulls. Pero una misión en el planeta Tierra, que provoca misterios y revelaciones, ayuda a Carol a descubrir su verdadero ser y poder. Al igual que todas o la mayoría de las peliculas del MCU, no hay un impulso dramático muy importante o que valga la pena. En cuestión de la historia, me atrevería a decir que es una de las películas más monótonas que recuerdo de Marvel. Su error está en que trata de sensibilizar al público en temas que conocemos muy poco y, al mismo tiempo, lo hace de forma muy diplomática. Esta es una película algo política con un discurso de inclusión con el que el público no podrá empatizar adecuadamente; no por la falta de valor en el mensaje, sino por la falta de trasfondo y lo que ignora la protagonista y, con ella, el público. Irónicamente, eso ayuda a que la moraleja reluzca y, cuando es necesario, crear intensidad emocional. La película tiene éxito en mostrar a un personaje que es fuerte por ser humano y no por sus poderes habilidades. Visualmente no es la película más espectacular de Marvel, incluso si omitimos las películas de Avengers y la música, compuesta por Pinar Toprak, resalta y apoya un poco la emotividad en el proyecto. Si me gustó más de lo que me gustaría aceptar es por la misma moraleja y que Larson la personifica con seguridad, autoconfianza e individualidad, valores con los que me identifico plenamente pero que, desafortunadamente, no se construyen bien en Captain Marvel.

There's not a lot to discuss of Captain Marvel with Brie Larson as the protagonist. Carol Denvers is part of a Kree military elite force in which Yon-Rogg, played by Jude Law, helps Carol to manage her powers and impulses and, at the same time, is trained to fight a war against the Skrulls. But a mission on planet Earth, that brings into light mysteries and revelations, helps Carol to discover her true self and power. Just as all or most of the MCU movies, there's not a very important or worthy dramatic impulse. Talking about the story, I would dare to say this is one of the most monotone movies of Marvel that I can recall. Its mistake it's in how it tries to sensitize the public in topics we know little and, at the same time, it does it in a very diplomatic way. This is a kind of politic film with a speech about inclusion with which the public won't be able to empathize properly; not because of the lack of value in the moral, but because of the lack of background and what the main character and, with her, the public. Ironically, that helps the moral to shine and, when it's necessary, create emotional intensity. The movie succeeds in showing a strong character because of being human and not because of her powers and abilities. Visually it's not the most spectacular movie of Marvel, even if we omit the Avengers movies and the music, composed by Pinar Toprak, highlights and supports a little the emotivity in the project. If I liked it more than what I would like to accept is because the same moral and that Larson personifies it with security, self-confidence, and individuality, values with which I fully relate but, unfortunately, are not well built in Captain Marvel.… Expand

It sticks to the time & tested marvel original story formula but what does hobble this movie is how it's so rushed and stiff. Carol is an astonishing confident heroine who on her journey to find herself discovers a life altering secret that would change her life permanently. Based in the 90's it leans into it's references both in it's cinematography and set design which I enjoyed given my own feelings for the later years of that decade.

Let alone tons of absurd and cringe-worthy stuff: paying homage to the '90s by showing slow loading processes and not-working web pages, a pandering to diversity through the movie's so-called messages in a most heavy-handed, and superficial way, outdated CGI, some of the corniest and cheesiest lines, etc.

As much as I love this franchise, the humor in MCU usually doesn't work for me as it does for many people. But I can't remember not chuckling even once during every one of these movies. In Captain Marvel, though, I swear that I didn't even smile for one time!

Also, I hate to say it, but Brie Larson is really stone-faced here. I just want to let you know that her Oscar-winning performance in Room is one of my all-time favorite performances by an actress!

What I liked:
- The de-aged Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury is incredibly impressive.
- Goose the cat is just a scene-stealer.
- I didn't expect the plot-twist, to be honest. (I wasn't invested in the story in even the slightest degree, though).
- The first act is stupidly chaotic and fast-paced that didn't bore me for a second. So that's a plus... I guess!
- The second act is interesting at some points, and it's when the story begins to find its footing.
- It's not a boring movie overall. In fact, it's quite enjoyable, except for the absurdly overlong third act that almost made me want to skip and fast forward till I get to the very end.

Overall, Captain Marvel is a soulless and bland sci-fi/action movie, and an undeniably second-tier superhero flick that doesn't deserve to be among most of the installments in an otherwise Marvel franchise.

I can’t believe that she is supposed to be the most powerful character in the MCU, that is just **** Kevin Feige wants us to believe that she is the only one who can destroy and stop Thanos when it should really be a team effort for the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy to to defeat the mad titan. All that build-up since Iron Man back in 2008 in Phase 1 to Avengers: Endgame in 2019 in Phase 3 was all for nothing.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I give this 6/10 - it's a okay superhero movie with some strenghs and some weaknessess. What I loved the most was the world building around the Kree's and their mysterious highest leader. I also liked the story and it's different twists, even though they could have done a better job concealing the fact that the Kree are the bad guys. The female-empowerment stuff isn't holding the movie back as much as I thought, but the fighting scene with "I'm just a girl" in the background was one of the cringest moments I've had watching a movie for years. I'm all for adding odd music to scenes for comic purposes (like in Guardians of the Galaxy) but it really didn't work here. Carol is just starting to unpack her powers, and are about to meet her former tutor and his elite crew. There is some serious tension in that moment. And then the song comes on and ruins it all. Some wokeness can also be spotted in the fact that Captain Marvel is a woman, supported by two black characters, and her prime enemy is a white man who is holding her back and telling her to control her emotions. It's all about her realeasing her womanhood powers and breaking with the controlling patriarchy. This theme is not obvious or in your face though.… Expand

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.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Voy a ser honesto y no voy a hablar de las idioteces que hace la actriz. La película me gusto pero nada mas. Cuando salí del cine quede normal, pero al pasar el tiempo surgieron las criticas. Comencemos por los protagonistas, Fury y Carol, y pongo a Fury primero porque es el quien, para mi, se roba la película. No pasan ni 5 minutos y ya están peleando, porque si, la mayor parte de escenas son de lucha. Los skrulls no son usados como villanos, hasta rozan lo absurdo en comedia, no se veían mal como he leído por ahí pero si están muy desaprovechados, la película sugiere que tal vez otros skrulls sean los que lleven a cabo la Secret Invasion, pero al saber como el MCU usa a sus villanos, ejemplo Ultron, desconfió demasiado. Coulson aparece poco y nada, si no estuviera en la película seria lo mismo. Los personajes que aparecen en anteriores películas, como Ronan, dicen diálogos sin sentido porque al fin y al cabo mueren. El CGI es muy notorio a veces y da algo de asco, ejemplos son Goose en varias escenas y algunas de las peleas de la Capitana. La película se vuelve mas una introducción, mas que un origen, es como si Iron Man 1 hubiera terminado con Tony enfrentando a los terroristas cuando prueba su traje rojo y dorado por primera vez, eso es la película de la Capitana, no posee un villano o un enfrentamiento que la obligue a esforzarse, simplemente destroza todo probando sus poderes en libertad y sin limites. Respecto a la cantidad de poder del personaje, la pongo al mismo nivel que Thor cuando llega a Wakanda, no esta sobrecargada y no es demasiado poderosa, pero si, puede hacer explotar todo. Sobre si tiene feminismo, pues si, pero muy poco y no es muy molesto, pero si notorio. La perdida del ojo de Fury si es insultante, fue el condenado gato de un arañazo, listo. Por otro lado quiero hacer énfasis en las declaraciones de Brie sobre lo "brillante e inspirador" de la película, y bueno, no tiene nada de eso. La historia solo cuenta como Danvers se enfrenta a los engaños de su vida y ya, cuenta su origen en cierta forma, no es la gran cosa. A fin de cuentas, no es lo mejor del MCU, la pondría junto a las primeras de Thor y las secuelas de Iron Man, en serio no es super genial pero tampoco es horrible, por eso le pongo un aceptable o pasable "6". Por ultimo quiero dar una opinión respecto a la actriz con su relación al personaje, con esto quiero decir, Downey Jr, Evans, Pratt, hasta Dave Bautista, se han ganado el apoyo y gusto de los fans porque han impresionado con su actuación, actualmente no vemos a otro que pueda ocupar el lugar de Iron Man y del Cap, pero no sucede lo mismo con la Capitana, juro que si pusieran a otra actriz para la secuela no me afectaría, pero tal vez solo sea que le falta desenvolverse mas o desarrollarse conforme pasen las películas, repito como relación personaje-actriz. En conclusión: los villanos me disgustan porque no representan un reto o amenaza, toca esperar a las futuras películas y como película llega al aceptable y ya. Para finalizar quiero dejar en claro, yo odio a Brie Larson, todas sus declaraciones son repudiables o dan asco, bien quisiera darle a esta película menos de un 6, pero no puedo. Quiero decir esto para que no vengan a llover dislikes por ser feminista o cualquier cosa mas, a la actriz la odio, pero no puedo odiar, por completo, la película, no por ahora.

Edición: Si alguno vio Spider-Man Far From Home, entonces deducirá que los skrulls no se convertirán en una amenaza para el universo de héroes, es casi imposible en este punto, por eso le bajo la nota a la película, a no ser que se esfuercen y nos den un enorme plot twist en las siguiente fases.… Expand

The premise is fun, and it's refreshing to see Nick Fury in an overwhelming situation before he gets into the pilot seat. The conspiracy, without spoiling, is one I think makes for a lot of paranoid fun, as you're always wondering what's around the corner, and who is going to be secretly in on it. Unfortunately, it's seated by a protagonist whose character and performer are flat.

Captain Marvel's action sequences are weightless and flashy. The protagonist has unquantified god power from the beginning, nothing ever comes close to threatening her in any way, and this leads to the third act falling flat once the cat's out of the bag and all that's left is to punch the bad guy.

As a sucker for humans in silly face paint playing old-school aliens, I had a lot of fun with the second act, enough to say I enjoyed the film overall. If you're looking for a fun *action* film, however, you're not going to find it here. It's not bad because it includes a woman (obviously), it's mediocre because that woman has nothing to learn and nothing to overcome. Had they replaced Captain Marvel's role with Black Widow, Hawkeye, or any more grounded hero and kept the same premise (leaning into the Men in Black angle), the threat would have certainly felt more credible. As is, this is a movie you'll struggle to stay off your phone for.… Expand

The characters are not much deep so the motivations and stress are not much understood by the audience. I could sense lots of feminism and left agenda in the theme of the trailer and the movie so that part is really annoying which made some of the conversations unnatural and not well script. However, it is not as bad as some people say just because they don't like the actress who plays Captain Marvel. CGI effects were very good and some actions were enjoyable. The climax was not designed climactic enough so I was a bit bored of the main character. The side characters had better humor and they were fun.… Expand

The 90’s aesthetic worked for me and the set design for those scenes are much nicer than the CGI everything found around the beginning and end of the film. The de-aging of Samuel L. Jackson looks fantastic and I really enjoyed all of his scenes. The arc of Ben Mendelsohn’s character was unexpected and I’m always a fan of seeing him. The writing in this film is just so basic and boring that it was difficult to enjoy any of the poorly-written characters or uninteresting action sequences. I’m definitely fed up with these Marvel origin stories but I really expected something more exciting from the talent involved. With a superhero this powerful, the action sequences have no tension to them at all. With a superhero this bland, it’s becomes difficult for me to care at all.

The Incredible Hulk isn't very Incredible.
Edward Norton gives a good performance but the concept of Hulk itself just seems tired. There is no new outlook on the hero just simply a repeatedly mediocre take on a very one dimensiona

The film lacks something in its story or the character building, but, in fact, the other characters' first solo films felt differently. Even "Homecoming" or "Black Panther" though Peter Parker and T'Challa were fully introduced in "Civil War". Maybe because "Captain Marvel" doesn't understand what it should be: first solo film, prequel to "Endgame" or to the whole Avengers thing. But I can't say that "Captain Marvel" is a bad film or the first serious Marvel's fault. Yes, the story of Fury's eye, visual decisions and, in fact, untold Kree-Skruls war disappoint you. But Samuel L. Jackson's acting, good humour in some scenes and, hell, yes, Goose the cat herself save the day. Brie Larson should've starred in her own solo film but it didn't happen. I wish she could develop her character's personality in the future MCU films.… Expand
