You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain = MCU
(dont over think it).
this movie will take you on a journey. as you travel through every scene, you will expect to see Brie Larson emote, have some other expression except for the smug one she is fixated with. and that journey will end fruitless.
Yes its the truth, Brie larson phones it in as captain marvel. Average acting at best.
I dont care about the controversy she is casuing bla bla bla. (*correction, didnt care about it WHILE watching the movie*)
I saw kong skull island back then and i loved Brie, and i couldnt wait for Captain Marvel. (im a superhero lover and a mcu fanboy btw)
as i saw captain marvel trailer i had goosebumps. couldnt wait. but wow oh wow. this is a trainwreck (from marvel standards).
everyone , EVERY CHARACTER except the "leading ladies" did good acting. even Minn-erva and Keller's wife acted much better than Brie for God's sake.
The film had so many scenes and things that didnt land simply. so many things were simply off. whoever worked on the "LOOK" simply failed on Maria. again i have nothing against the actress. but she horribly failed to look like a mother and ex-pilot.
and to add insult to injury [spoiler] she is actually taunting Keller that CALL ME A YOUNG LADY again etc. etc. ........ ummm you look like a young lady [/spoiler]. she looked like a bratty teen thruout.
so many questionable things have happened. dont wannt spoil . but MCU aware will know it immediately.
[spoiler] so they made legendary nick fury's eye loss story a joke. yahoo. any one else remembers how he told Cap (thats america obviously) how he LOST his eye when he used to bilndly trust someone, a very stern dialogue, . so i guess nick fury is a simple manipulator now. making up stuff to convince people.... okay... [/spoiler]
i am writing this immediately after seeing. Pardon my grammar and haphazard writing.
in the end Captain Marvel simply didnt feel believable. I simply cannot believe she is supposed to go toe to toe with thanos??
Dr. Strange in his origin FELT like he could take on Thanos despite being not super powerful thruout his film. And then he did.
Captain Marvel looks like some brainless brat ready to get ass kicked. I simply refuse to believe She will be at helm in Endgame.
I hope the rumor is true, that 2 endings/stories are ready for Endgame and if CM flops. Endgame will put CM at sidelines. i really hope that happens. because CM just isnt working here!!1.
And for the love of God, anyone remotely thinking that im being sexist please **** off you dont belong on internet.
i dont have to prove anything to you but for the sake of some substance, I wholeheartedly believe that wonder woman ( i know not MCU) can kick thanos's ass. hell, scarlet witch can!! . dont know why they sidelined her. in a very bizzare scanerio even black widow might. but definitely not Carol "no white males please" Danvers.
Even technically the movie fails to impress. no beautiful shots. no superb moments.
I cant believe [spoiler] they had the chance to reveal the captain marvel costume first time in awesomeness like WW did on the battlefield. and they do it with the little girl (who surprisingly knows how to handle Kree bracelet because.... reasons) on their lawn...... in dark..... yay....... [/spoiler]
Painfully Average.
EDIT 1: Adding this the next day. Yes i do want to comment on the agendas this films are pushing by the way. It throws feminism in your face. Not roughly but not subtly either.
so Captain Marvel doesnt have a love interest.... well done. wonder woman did that , and it went beautifully. you dont have to fill the movie with it. but a love interested should be there right? unless you justify the plot with it. but here the lack of love interested simply screams. IM A WOMAN I DONT NEED A MAN!!! . dr. strange didnt want to focus on a love interest. but she was there. it showed dr. strange's emotional graph and vulnerability.
And you know what, I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THESE AGENDAS, im not being safe.. Let me tell you why. Because after SJW/Political/Feminist Agendas these movies throw, giving anything less than 10/10 makes you a WOMAN HATER. There might as well be an angry mob outside the theatre ready to shoot you if you dont have a smile stepping outside.
If Brie or moviemakers would be like = hey we are making this for women empowerment. its not a great movie. its a light attempt. please support us . thanks I would give a standing ovation for them. and ask people to see this movie myself.
but hey im a male so im not supposed to say ANYTHING about this movie. just pay for it, watch it , and call it awesome. or shut up.
thats why i have a problem !!

PS: see jeremy jahns, boogie2988, screen junkies videos on the movie. they are really good.
one thing jeremy jahns says really hits how nick fury is retconned into someone else entirely. so avengers 1 was a huge threat?? no captain marvel required then? and he didnt prepare black widow hawkeye etc. that there are super powerful beings outside earth? so dont be alarmed @ thor loki etc. nick fury is a lying deceiving jerk?? did CM makers see MCU movies at all?? (quoting him mostly)
