A serviceable origin story, but if this was supposed to an MCU tentpole, swing & miss

Rating: 6/10 (12 March 2019)

Character development somewhat lacking due to the plot devices and editing decisions. I cared more about some of the supporting characters than I did for Carol (including the cat). Visual style and identity was muddled. Soundtrack and song selection was rather obvious and at times, too "on the nose". I'm not an avid gamer, but my son is. He introduced me to the term "try-hard" some years ago. This movie felt like the MCU equivalent of a "try-hard."
