I really wanted to like this movie...

Rating: 1/10 (9 March 2019)

I really, really wanted to like the film. I was genuinely excited when I heard they were making it. I thought Brie Larson was a good look, though I didn't know her from anything. She has all the charisma of a wet blanket. She drags the movie down almost entirely. Her dialogue is so poorly written it's almost unbearable. I enjoyed Ben Mendelsohn and Sam Jackson, but the rest of the film is just... not good. Hopefully they figure out this character soon, whether it takes a recast (like Bruce banner or James Rhodes), or just better writers. Captain marvel is not unstoppable, she does have weaknesses. Write a flawed character and make her relatable. Maybe with a more personable actor in the role...I don't know.
Overall, the movie is just bad with moments of good thrown in at times
