Truth

Rating: 8/10 (8 March 2019)

I'm gonna go ahead and say it, the real reason everyone chooses to hate on this movie is because she's a women. This movie was anything but dull, was it rushed? Sure. Could the dialogue have been better? Definitely. To say this film was dull, that Brie Larson did nothing special with this performance, or even that it wasn't "Marvel" enough, doesn't make sense. The film was action packed from beginning to end, their were battles at every corner. Brie Larson was internally battling herself at the same time, not knowing who she is or what she's fighting for. Most superhero movies all have the same message, defeat bad guys, be the good guys. This movie was more than that, it was a life lesson. There will be times when you get knocked down over and over again but the strength is in overcoming all of that, in having the courage to get back up.
Also, I saw a review around the internet somewhere saying they would've preferred a Black Widow movie, which makes no sense to me. A movie like that has been remade a million of times, a women who gets kidnapped, psychologically, emotionally, and physically abused and turned into a weapon, kills a bunch of people then goes through a life changing situation and all the sudden she's on the good side. Remaking something that has already been made a hundred times, is pointless. Captain Marvel is something new, something different to the Marvel universe in my opinion. It's sad that it's getting such bad reviews just because she's a women.
Is it really that offensive that a women can kick butt and be indestructible?
