Rating: 8/10 (8 March 2019)

Captain Marvel is a warm and fun ride. It achieves what it sets to do. The chemistry between characters is good, for some greater than for the others. It's not a movie that aims too high, and some would see it as a weakness. It's not as amazing as it could be, but it's way better than the credit it gets.
The origin story is good enough, the laughs and 90s nostalgia are a good backdrop. But the Skrulls, Kree, Carol, Fury, Goose, Rambeau are a part of a slick and smooth journey, full of lights and colours.
It's a female empowerment movie, but it doesn't push its agenda. Carol Denvers could be anyone who has things to prove. Brie plays it like a cool girl, breezy, tough and cheeky. I want to see her fighting side by side with the Avengers.
Captain Marvel is a good movie. Don't hold it against it if it didn't blow your mind.
