Captain Mediocre

Rating: 6/10 (21 March 2019)

Positives
The acting from Brie Larson and Sam Jackson is great, their chemistry was so good with buddy cop dynamic working so well. Ben Mendelsohn was so great as Talos (leader of the skrulls) delivering some of the best lines in the film. Lashanda Lynch was good as well as Danvers's best friend, she also had one of the best scenes in the film where she meets Danvers after her five-year disappearance.
The action scenes were good, my favourite being the train fight which was shown in all of the trailers. The rest of the action could have been better.
The message of the film is very inspiring, falling down only to get back up. A great message that can inspire anyone to become a hero.
The de-aged look on Sam Jackson and Clark Gregg is very good and believable. The other effects are ok and passable but I think Marvel should have raised the budget a bit higher or gotten a different VFX team for the action scenes
The score for the film was great, my favourite was when Danvers is on a mission with her team to rescue an operative as they raise from the water.
Negatives
The acting from everyone else was pretty forgettable because even the characters are so minor or the movie decides to move so fast that it forgets those characters altogether. I don't even remember everyone's name expect though the characters who I care about which was Danvers, Fury, Talos and Maria. Jude Law was ok but like other character he was forgettable.
The 90s feel was also very forgettable and was one of the main selling points to me. So disappointed that we didn't get to see more of 1995's Los Angeles because it looks so cool and the interaction with Danvers and this world was so good.
Goose, something that I thought was cute turn out to be a nightmare. The fact that it turned out to an alien and then scratched out Fury's eye was so stupid and defeat the purpose of how Fury lost his eye.
In conclusion, the film is decent in what it wants to do which is a solo character-driven action Marvel film and it does that well but I can't say that I will watch it again though.
6/10 - Decent but Mediocre in execution
