I wanted to hate it. I couldn't.

Rating: 9/10 (23 March 2019)

So. Guys. I've seen the trailers, thought "man, this looks kinda bad". Brie Larson looked annoying, the CGI awful, I went into the cinema just to get it over with - shes's gonna be in Endgame, so I had to watch it, right?
And. I was wrong. I owe them all an apology.
I was prepared to see a bad movie with mediocre acting, but I didn't. OK, so it's MY opinion, but I liked it, LOVED it, even!
The last Marvel movie I watched was Venom (which was so bad it was kinda embarrassing), so I was SO sure that Marvel ran out of good origin-stories, but. No. For me, it was a refreshing experience - sure, the CGI had kinda low quality sometimes (sorry, Goose), but the story is unpredictable, the jokes are funny, and - I repeat, for me - Carol is a likeable, strong character.
I'm gonna be honest, she annoyed me in the trailers because of her face - I mean c'mon, can't she smile or something? Look anything but slightly frowny/condescending? I totally understand if for someone, that looks like bad acting, but as I was sitting in the theatre, I realised that I can relate to her, 'cos I have the same, "I-hate-the-world-and-everything-in-it"-face if I don't smile. So, sorry, Brie, I was wrong.
The thing I liked the most about her character, though, was the ability to stand up after every fall. No, Carol isn't a perfect human being (...spoilers, kinda?), she can behave arrogantly and has a smug smile that you won't like, but she's strong, determined, and never gives up, no matter what the world throws at her - and THAT is something I admire in her.
So guys, I think everyone should see for themselves and decide whether to like it or not, but I was pleasantly surprised - seriously, I can't wait to watch it again.
On the other side, the action scenes are still unbelievably wobbly, I simply don't understand why they have to shake the camera so much, I always have a hard time following who is kicking whose ass...
And, oh, my biggest problem, and here comes the real spoiler: Fury lost his eye because of a cat (flerken, whatever)?! And not in a "I-am-fighting-for-my-life" scene, but in a "I-wanna-coo-at-the-cute-alien-oww-my-eye" one, which, no... That was slightly undignified, and don't start me on the second post-credit scene, because, no. I'm gonna go and pet my cats, and you should go and watch the movie, because seriously, it isn't as bad as they say.
