A Formulaic Movie that looks Nice Enough.

Rating: 5/10 (9 March 2019)

Not factoring in Political Messaging or Agendas, Captain Marvel is an Average Movie in a Line-up of Good to Fantastic Movies (with one or two notable exceptions *cough* Thor 2 *cough*). The Plot is formulaic with a few unnecessary changes made to the overall MCU story (and the source materials) to raise the importance of an otherwise newcomer to the franchise (Movies, not Comics) and carries the sin of making Nick Fury the primary source of Comic Relief (which as an avid Marvel fan is a somewhat insulting fate for the Coolest Character in Marvel) as well as an almost 1-for-1 Rip-off of a scene from Independence Day (1999).
Brie Larson herself is both a hit and a miss; for each of her scenes I thought "Hell, yeah" there was another where I was left thinking "...what the hell?"
In summary, see it for the sake of its role in the MCU or if you've got an evening to fill and don't feel like watching a better MCU movie (Though I'd have to wonder why that would be the case...)
