In a word, MEH.

Rating: 5/10 (17 March 2019)

The movie itself does manage to entertain but unfortunately, it doesn't do anything original in the process. It truly is a copy and paste marvel movie with the same tired formula that we've come to expect. After 10 years of this, it just doesn't quite cut it anymore.
The casting was great with one HUGE exception. San Jackson was excellent as usual, Ben Mendelsohn stole every scene that he appeared in, and Jude Law was excellent as well. That exception was definitely Brie Larson. I admit I've been less then thrilled with her off screen antics, but I set that aside and wanted to see for myself how she did portraying this character that honestly, through the comics, I don't really care for. Her acting was wooden, she seemed more like a cardboard cut out of a superhero instead of a real person. There was no connection to her whatsoever. In the end, I just didn't care. Overall, she just came across as flat and boring with little to no emotional connection or caring.
The story was cookie cutter and honestly, there was no suspense or memorable battle or struggle. At no point was I even remotely concerned or worried for any character or the outcome. Captain Marvel is OVERPOWERED. When a character can just destroy everything and anyone that stands in their way we are just left with an empty, dull, uninspired experience. I hope this isn't the future of the MCU.
