Great Movie! In regards to the haters, be more realistic.

Rating: 9/10 (11 March 2019)

A great, I believe, above average MCU movie. That puts it at 9 stars in my book, b/c even the "average" MCU movie is a great entertaining 8 star movie in my opinion. Now, I'm a guy, knowing other people saying Disney is pushing a political or social agenda with this movie. To that I say, why is that a bad thing? I'm no activist (conservative on the political spectrum) , but my son has had many Marvel characters to dress up as, and for the first time my daughter said she want's to be a super hero for Halloween this year, Captain Marvel. Why is that a bad thing? Can't a dad be proud of that? So, here is my list of pros and cons, and why I listed as 9 stars.
Pros:

Great acting all around, not sure why people hated Brie. Here character took a while to break free from her funk. Once she did, she opened up as a character. The whole point was that she was brainwashed and foggy the first half of the movie.
There was more Nick Fury than any other MCU movie, which was AWESOME! Some complained he wasn't the same Fury as his future self, but this was his early, less experienced self. This was his first time encountering this type of crap, and he took it like a champ considering.
You got to see the climax a little longer than most movies. All movies see the hero tip the scales and knock out the bad guys in a blaze of glory, this one just extended it a few minutes longer. I think this is where some people criticized the movie a little, saying she's over powered. I enjoyed seeing a few more minutes of victory.
Similar formula as all super hero films, but I felt the plot was a little different than most with the twist and all. A lot of the good MCU movies have a twist, as this one did.
Answered a lot of questions.
Opened up new questions, just like all good MCU films should.

Cons

She's pretty much indestructible based on what we saw. Thor and Hulk are

similarly nearly indestructible, although I think she can easily take both (at the same time) based on what we've seen. Keep in mind we've only seen her in this one setting. So she may not be as powerful as she seems, but based on the movie....she may be overpowered. You gotta admit however, seeing her blast through a whole spaceship was pretty dang cool.

I wish Coulsen was in it more. He's one of my favorites (love Agents of Shield). He's a great actor and I'm not sure why they haven't utilized him more on the big screen.
I can still think of a few minor discontinuity things (aside from the major "why didn't he call her before" one). But other movies have opened up similar issues. They had no idea the MCU would blow up this big, and they've done amazing keeping it this tight to be honest.

Sorry for the long review, just wanted to do it justice. These one star reviews just aren't fair. I wonder what measuring rod they're basing it off. I mean, I'd like to know what else they consider a 1 star performance, what they consider a 5 star, and what is a 10 star. I'm guessing it's either political, or they just want WW to look better on IMDB?
