Not at all what I expected...or wanted

Rating: 2/10 (9 March 2019)

I love the Marvel Cinematic Universe although I was never into the comic books at all. Iron Man, Thor, the ups-and-downs with the Hulk, Spiderman and everybody, all the characters, brought something fun and interesting, and the movies were just plain good fun. I could go with all my friends and make a huge night out of seeing the new Marvel movie...but something is different this time.
First off, some of my friends didn't even want to see it because of whatever the actress had been saying. I don't really care what a person does outside the film, I'm paying for the movie, but all of a sudden my friends were really negative. A couple of my friends suggested we all go see Alita (again) because that was so great. In the end, we ended up going to see Captain Marvel and it became a groan fest.
Apparently the bad guys in the comic are now good illegal refugess? What? I don't know, my comic fan friends were super unhappy with a lot of details, but I just thought it was boring. The fights weren't very exciting. The actress sort of came across like a Tony Stark cool-smarta$$ in the beginning, but then her personality went totally flat. And there just weren't any big "WHOA!!!" moments. It was boring. I wanted to have fun and I didn't.
I was expecting something like wonder woman and I got something that fell way, way short. I feel pretty let down and now half my friends are just saying, "Told ya so!" which is really annoying. Keep your Captain Marvel, Marvel, and give me more Starlord or Tony Stark or better yet, Black Widow! But without all the Brie baggage.
