Marvelous? No. Nostalgic? Yes.

Rating: 7/10 (8 March 2019)

Instead of rehashing the weaknesses that others have mentioned, I will instead focus on the high points that made this an enjoyable film for me.
The 90's music played well and helped send me back to my teenage years when Blockbuster drop boxes still existed, computers took a while to load things, and most importantly, pagers were still a thing.
The humor was well interspersed with the ongoing bit about Fury's eye being fondly reminiscent of Crispin Glover's missing arm gag from Hottub Time Machine.
This is not just an origin story for Carol Danvers, but for Fury and Coulson, and even the Protectors. I for one am psyched to see this phase wrapped up in 7 weeks. And the Stan Lee tribute was definitely the first time I've teared up before a marvel movie begins.
