Don't listen to the negative "fakes"

Rating: 8/10 (8 March 2019)

"Captain Marvel" succeeds on a number of levels: origin story, Intro to the mcu, a continuation and expanssion of "Infinity War," and an interaction of several new characters or species to the MCU. Thats a lot of weight to carry but "Cap" does it with a light touch and plenty of humour and several surprises along the way.
The CGI is terrific, especially the De-aging of Nick Fury and Phil Could on. Ben Mehndelson's Skrull is a stand out , performance wise and the story deals with a lot of complicated back and forth but never loses track and remains easy to follow.
Brie Larson, an amazing actress, does a fantastic job portraying Carol Danvers, a confused, strong who wants only to get at the truth.
The audience I saw this with at the Thursday Night Fan premiere laughed and cheered throughout. Really a good time .
Now for "Endgame."
