It's good, not great

Rating: 7/10 (9 March 2019)

I don't think that the film is this dumpster fire that others seen to think (mainly just comic book people who think they know everything about everything for some reason), but I don't think this movie is great by any means. I think its enjoyable and entertaining, but it has quite a few flaws. The beginning is a little long, and takes a while to get up off the ground, but once it does the ball rolls, but maybe a tiny bit too quickly. It felt over and done, and the little plot twist element came out of left field. The movie still had a great premise, and actually wasn't overly political like people keep claiming (admittedly the trailer made it KIND OF seem like that), and I had a good time watching it. I think the film should have released years ago because of a lot of the plot elements, but it's still good. I did kind of have a problem with Brie Larson, but mainly just for the issue that she didn't feel as humorous as other people in the same universe, and when she tried to come off as witty and fun, it just didn't stick most of the time. Her acting was still superb regardless, and I think she is a great fit for the role, she just needs a bit of practice. A fairly solid film in a still solid universe, but I ultimately see it as just one more film closer to what I see as the end, and another fine addition to this cinematic universe.
