It's not THAT bad!

Rating: 6/10 (17 March 2019)

I was debating whether to give this a 5 or a 6, and I kind of want to go with 5, but I'll go with 6 to slightly counter some of the absurd scores here, though I know it's futile. The movie is a little boring for a Marvel movie, and certainly no masterpiece, but what I really don't understand are all the people going on about this being a (too?) feminist movie or whatever. :-/ I'm a guy, and I hate third wave feminism, but unless simply having a female main character with superpowers alone is enough to automatically make a movie a feminist movie (which imo is super dumb, obviously. Some movies have male main characters Some have female ones. Some have both. Like, so what?), then I'm not seeing what makes this movie so feminist. There's maybe like one scene I can think of that has that undertone, and that's it. People are tripping, seriously.
Other than that, the story was okay to me, the directing a bit meh, and the acting so-so (Samuel L. Jackson is great as always though). More importantly though, the action felt lackluster, which was my biggest disappointment. The comedy was good though. Far from as good as in some of the other movies, but still.
All in all, the movie is kind of meh as far as Marvel superhero movies go, but it's certainly no atrocity as some people seem to want us to think...I'd suggest watching it just to understand how Carol Denvers fits in when Avengers: Endgame comes out.
