Remember why superman quickly got boring?

Rating: 5/10 (9 June 2019)

Superman was all powerful - every plot had to involve kryptonite, blocking the sun, or threatening someone he loved. After awhile this got really old.
Captain Marvel is more of the same. In the opening of the movie, she takes down a giant Kree ship herself from a position of absolute restraint. Then she flees without checking to make sure her team (with who we might assume she was captured in the mission just prior) are on the ill-fated ship. As she crashes into the concrete roof of a blockbuster, presumably at at least terminal velocity, she's not damaged at all. She's all powerful and mostly invulnerable.
Also, for a woman who has spent some time among British accented aliens (I guess that's how we are supposed to identify them as aliens) she still speaks and acts exactly like a girl from the midwest.
This and endless other criticisms not voiced boil down to the Disneyification of movies for the lowest common denominator American tastes and for the maximum profitability of films by making them vaguely enjoyable, but not at all good.
The problem here in my opinion is Disney, a company that will buy up everything they can and make it as unoffensive and likable as possible. They polish over the lack of depth in their films by adding excellent special effects (It did get 5 stars, not 3) and writers who are supposed to throw in little one liners to make us chuckle throughout and not get completely bored. It's a formula they apply to everything.
In all, unless you want to be dazzled a bit by some special effects, this film is not worth watching.
