A Disappointing Showing

Rating: 1/10 (9 March 2019)

Captain Marvel is a disappointing movie, especially considering that it is the first MCU movie with a female lead. Larson's performance is underwhelming, and the action feels flawed and unengaging. The movie is confusing and often lacks a sense of purpose. In contrast to the male lead movies in the MCU, it almost feels like women have been underserved by this entry into the MCU. In comparison to the excellent Black Panther movie, which had a complex and interesting ethical backdrop, this movie offers almost nothing. Very dissapointed.
