I Wanted To Like This Movie

Rating: 3/10 (10 March 2019)

I admit that I wait until a movie plays for a few weeks before seeing it.
This time, I didn't wait and regret my decision.
I saw 2 movies in the span of 48hrs. The other being a Manga adaptation and this being the second one.
Marvel should have knocked it out of the park, but struck out. There is one redeeming quality to the movie,- if they concentrated on good old fashion hero comic book action instead of winking at the camera, then Brie Larson could have come across as a 'real' hero. Instead, I felt like I spent 2 hours at a comic book sales pitch as she tries to convince me that the movie is great... over and over again.
It felt condescending.
If there is a next one, make her more likeable, more human and more vulnerable. There was absolutely zero character development.
Nick Fury was awesome.
This movie did what "Batman & Robin" did to the Batman series and if Marvel is serious about their cash cow and franchise, they will reflect on it and will wait and polish up the next movie like what DC did with "Batman Begins"
