Aim for the stars, you may land up on the Moon

Captain Marvel is MCU's attempted parallel to Wonderwoman. But, to my utter despair, it fails to invoke any emotion or adoration I had for the Wonderwoman movie when I watched it first.
The creators of this movie tried hard to make this a female-centric movie, which is a good thing; but, their attempt is pretty much visible all over the movie. Even when they had an actress like Brie Larson, who effortlessly and subtly displayed emotions, the character fails to appeal to the audience. One reason could be the 'rushed through flickering flashbacks' past of the heroine. The movie hardly gives any time for the audience to relate to the anger, rage, or conflicting emotions of the lead character. This explains why this scenes which should have evoked goosebumps otherwise, ended up being meh. For example, as a female audience, if executed correctly, the scene where Carol stands up to the patriarchal society and goes 'try me' would have given serious goosebump-worthy moments. But sadly, it ended up being 'Heh'.
Even though, the character is subtly humourous, it fails to appeal to the audience. The only saving grace is the 'Fury-cat' duo.
Overall, the movie isn't bad. Yet, it doesn't meet up to the expectations. Having said that, for any MCU fans, it's a one-time worth experience.
