Magic

Rating: 6/10 (10 March 2019)

Great action. Witty dialogue. Samuel L Jackson is back. Brie Larson is a major force. She delivers her lines like a pro. She develops into the heroine persona. And let's face, she's not bad to look at, yet never any kind of negative or inappropriate way.
But I have the same complaint I had in Thor: Ragnarok. Super powers beyond anything previously hinted come out of nowhere. Yet the casualties are inconsistent. She breezes through dozens of missiles and fighters (all of which presumably far beyond our human capabilities) leaving them all in dust and flames, yet she can't kill any Kree and only incapacitates one after it's all over anyway. She can fly even in space, although previously she needed a mask. It's magic. The writers create any powers they want just because she suddenly decides she is better than all the bad guys.
I was thinking it would have been nice to see what came after Carol got up and dusted herself off in all those previous life failures.
Did anyone else wonder where the connection came to the title (presumably her new handle) Captain Marvel? Carol wasn't Mar-vel.
