And the sexism continues..ignore the low ratings!

Rating: 8/10 (9 March 2019)

Seriously people, you criticize Brie Larson's portrayal of Captain Marvel as "emotionless", "dull", "cold", even "stuck-up"...HOWEVER we are constantly inundated with Hollywood male leads portraying their "tough" characters in this manner and that's money-making?! Please stop and think about WHY you're expecting a female to be different in order to be "likable"! I'm so OVER IT!! Not to mention the whole point of the seemingly cold exterior was part of what her character was brainwashed into believing was appropriate (you know, the whole control your emotions bit! did you miss that part??) I think there was a lot of merit to the underlying message about not underestimating people (something most minorities and women can certainly relate to! And I happen to be part of both of those groups). I get it, the movie wasn't perfect, but it was a breath of fresh air considering the dominance of male "hero" and "superhero" leads. And it's just getting beyond ridiculous that in 2019 people still want to pigeon-hole women into out-dated traditions and stereotypes (which this movie did NOT do, she didn't have to fall in love with a dude or make babies to be interesting!)...that's where it seems most of the negative comments are stemming from...that, and a lack of critical thinking about our social conditioning.
