The cat has a few nice moments... and that's it.

Rating: 3/10 (9 March 2019)

It's boring, unfunny (not for a lack of trying), music is essentially not there, de-aging is bad for Sam L Jackson and _terrible_ for Clark Gregg, it has too much of the "crazy feminism in your face", makes no sense what-so-ever. So, Carol Danvers blows up an energy core, the blast of which imbues her with limitless energy, but not another guy that's around, a real Kree? OK, she can fly on this energy, but she can also breathe on it? Also, she can use this energy to apply unspeakable force - you do know those are two different things? I mean, other comic book "science fiction" is silly, but this, this is just nonsensical.
Also, the changing of the comic book background is for no good reason. Yes, recently they changed Ms Marvel into Captain Marvel, but, even that was explained as her honoring the original Captain Marvel, who has since died, and was named Mar-Vell. He was a guy, he was not Anette Benning. Skrull were always villains and Kree, while being rather self-righteous, were not bona-fide bad guys like here.
The biggest problem is probably Brie Larson. She's not an action movie actress. In one scene she runs and looks plain silly. Her fights are totally fake. She's bad at acting tough, or focused or just, well, thinking. A few times that she shows some emotion, it looks much better. While Ms Marvel is pretty, hot and at-times cute, she's none of the above. She looks like a small slightly-chubby girl who lives in denial thinking she's tough and strong (probably all of us remember one such girl from our school days).
Nobody did a really good job here, not even Sam L Jackson. And, really, de-aging is bad. I'm old enough to remember him from 1995. He tries, but, somehow, it doesn't work. Sure, he's _much_ better than Brie Larson, but, that's not saying much, really.
It's not all bad, though. The cat has a few nice scenes, especially the first few in the improvised space-craft. The story, if you take out feminism, rewriting comic-book history, and nonsensical science fiction, is OK. There are no big lapses in directing, scenography. Sure, none of it is very good, but, it's not bad.
Near the end I felt like Anette Benning in "American Beauty", wanting to tell the filming crew "You haven't screwed up, once!".
But, really. It's a _comic_ book movie and there was not even one slightly good laugh in ~2 hours. It's about as bad as Electra, but, Jennifer Garner was somewhat hot, so for some folks, that was enough. So, skip this, there are much better cat clips on YouTube.
