No character development

Rating: 2/10 (9 March 2019)

How can this be so bad you wonder? There so many things wrong with this movie. For one thing, the plot makes no sense. I Don't want to spoil it but all I can say is that the characters have little to no visible motivation for their actions. Its like they act on auto pilot. Auto pilot super heroes who do good for the sake of good and nothing else in a two-dimensional way. A lot of marvel movies have the same problem but this one was apparent and in your face. The second thing is the characters. Brie Larson's character has no development through out the entire movie. In the beginning she is a stoic hero badass and at the end she is a stoic hero badass. There is literally no hero's gurney. I could not relate to her character because she was robotically heroic with no flaws. Compare that to another flawed movie like Captain America. That movie was flawed in the same way as this one in that the characters were heroic for no reason except for the sake of being heroes. Except one that the Captain America does well is show the development of the main character. He starts off having warriors' spirit but no warriors body. At the end he gets the warriors body and he proves to the audience that he has what it takes. In Captain Marvel, you never have a doubt that she has what it takes. So, its just bland story telling. Like this super hero is a super hero... ok... On the flip side, this movie does not deserve a 1 star because it does not fail to be a movie. So, I am giving it a 1 and a half because it fails to make me care about anything in the movie. I honestly did not even feel an urgency in this movie like with infinity war where you root for the underdog heroes. When the movie was done I felt empty like nothing significant happened. This is probably the blandest marvel movie out there.
