Definitely not marvelous

Rating: 5/10 (12 March 2019)

I go to movies with someone who is really into the Marvel franchise, so although it's not really my favourite genre of movies see them all. Believe this movie is splitting the Marvel fan base who are probably the most passionate of the movie groups. I'm on the fence and whilst it isn't the best of marvel it isn;t the worst either.
This movie was obviously eagerly anticipated as it was name checked at the end of Infinity War last year. It goes back a few years into the initial meeting between Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson) and Captain Marvel (Brie Larson). I would have liked it to be much more of a character driven movie, but it focuses mostly on the action sequences. To be fair that's pretty much true of most of the Marvel movies. Anyway the best bits of the movie are where we find out more of the back story of the main characters. Definitely one for the many fans of Marvel although they may come out of the movie very happy or very angry judging from other reviews.
