Very lacking...

Rating: 5/10 (8 March 2019)

It has it's typically sarcastic, funny, nostalgic moments you get from Marvel Comic films, but where this movie is lacking is the background and development of Marvel herself. If this is supposed to be an introductory film for a superior character then I feel like they should have done it way more justice than the vague and superficial way they gave us Captain Marvel. I still don't understand why she's so powerful, yet, in the film, she's completely unstoppable in a very boring way. Think of it as a superhero movie with no real villain to be scared of...at all. They tried to tie in 90's music and pop culture the way Guardians did with the late 70's and early 80's, but not nearly as good a job. The soundtrack could've been awesome but there wasn't enough of it, if that makes any sense.
All that said, it's a Marvel movie, so it's still better than DC...although I would argue that Aquaman and Wonder Woman make a strong case against the Marvel comic universe if this is what they're gonna start putting out. I expected way more, but was still entertained with the cat (wait for it)...although this doesn't even make my top 10 Marvel movies.
