Nothing Great, But Satisfying !!!

For starters, MCU version of Captain Marvel is very much an altered version of the confusing comic history of Captain Marvel / Miss Marvel. Unlike most other MCU characters Captain Marvel does not have a one clear origin story... More you dig, more you can get confused. Who is Captain Mar-Vell, how Mar-Vell get super powers because he is a Kree etc etc,... and how Carol Danvers related to Mar-Vell etc etc,... But MCU decided to make it all very simple so it fits the current MCU (universe) which I think is a good decision and an worthwhile effort.
Movie itself is positioned right before the End Game... Meaning fans will rush to see Captain Marvel to see how she fits in to the MCU story line regardless its good or bad. For most parts the movie is fun and enjoyable. Its not as intensive or has a deeper meaning to it like the Infinity War or some of the earlier MCU movies. So, based on the fact that this movie comes right before the End Game I guess Marvel Studios took the opportunity to make Captain Marvel a fun and lite movie and saving energy to construct the End Game. At least that my theory.
I don't think Captain Marvel is as bad as some reviewers are sounding here. You also needs to look at each of MCU movie from its own perspective and not all movie can be constructed the same way. I mean look at Black Panter... it took a completely different turn in my opinion and for me its less fun and enjoyable than Captain Marvel.
Anyways, all and all Captain Marvel is good enough... and it takes a couple of movies or so to build a good character that fits the rest of the MCU. As the first Solo movie of Captain Marvel I think its not bad... but it could have been little better !!!
