An unfortunate low point in the MCU

Rating: 3/10 (29 March 2020)

Where to start? I guess with the general take that Captain Marvel (CM) was by far the worst MCU movie to date. To the point that it nearly ruins the franchise.
* It trivializes the tesseract as it was depicted in the other MCU movies. In particular, the tesseract wasn't something to be handled lightly - witness it's effect on Red Skull and it's melting through the hull of his bomber. In Captain Marvel, it's eaten without much effect by the Flerken.
* What the **** happened to Nick Fury?? If you compare the basic personality traits shown by Fury in all the other earlier MCU movies, his demeanor in CM was _very_ out of character. In CM he was kind of a dope. And I was very much hoping for a more down-to-earth, gutsy story behind his damaged eye. Something more akin to a story line like that of Winter Soldier. Not a scratch from a stupid alien Flerken/cat.
* Basic human character is completely ignored. I will suspend disbelief about many things when watching a Sci-Fi movie. But basic human behavior is one of those things that MUST ring true or it totally blows the movie. In CM, Carol's best friend abandons her daughter to go on a mission where she is _very_ likely to be killed. No mother would do that, no matter what. Period. But especially going up into space in an airplane that was just *roll eyes* made space-worthy in a couple of hours using, what - spit and bailing wire??
These are just of couple of the most glaring/egregious problems with Captain Marvel. And then there's just the whole Superman problem (the problem of having unbeatable superpowers) that makes a movie, in general, very hard to take. And they didn't work through that issue very well either.
Two toes down. Way down.
