A good movie, leave your politics and prejudices at the front door

Rating: 7/10 (6 April 2019)

This movie has received a lot of coverage leading up to and since being released. I am a middle aged, white, straight, well educated and successful married guy. I read the critics (people like Nedrotic.com and others). Most of what they share is spot on, the free speech thinkers do represent the fans. I only went to see the movie last night because my 9 yo daughter asked me. My expectations were very low!
The movie blew me away, and the icing on the cake was the look of joy on my daughter's face.
The film does not press any agendas, neither of sex, race, religion or politics. It is a science fiction fantasy story, well told. The plot is sensible, understandable, and heart felt. It was fun, enjoyable and entertaining. The pace was perfect, the imagery was fantastical and colorful, the characters were engaging. I am a real, hard core fan of the universe and the genre, this movie was a delightful piece of work that delivered.
Brie Larson, as a human being is a little naive and dare i say it, ignorant, living in a privileged world where she is able to use her sex to gain advantage, setting feminism back 5 decades! But, she delivered a great performance, I loved her in the role. Most luvvies aren't that smart and survive on the words written by others! So lets not be too hard on her, she acted beautifully and nailed the role.
The movie does not fit in the Marvel universe perfectly, but lets remind ourselves that this is fantasy, perhaps the fans should also show some imagination!
Captain Marvel's legacy will be set in stone in the Avengers: Endgame, we have establish characters that the fans have a lot of love and loyalty for. All I ask (if I could!) is that the movie makes protect the spirit and soul of the marvel universe that was inherited by the fans on 12 November 2018.
If you want to be entertained, dazzled and escape to a new universe, then leave your politics at the front door and step in and emerge yourself into a pretty good movie
