Fun, epic and kinda inspirational

Rating: 9/10 (24 April 2019)

I won't comment on all the dreadful reviews, as everyone has its own taste.
But as a young woman who loves movies and superheroes, I loved it. Unlike what many on here said, I stepped out of the cinema with a sense of fulfillment and purpose, feeling inspired - Captain Marvel is a strong woman that can and should be an example for women to come. It might not be a faithful-to-the-comics movie (I wouldn't know as I haven't read them) - and on that note I would understand why many disliked it. But it's certainly VERY far from deserving a 1 out of 10 - disliking and irrationally hating are two different things. Taken as a movie of its own, as a single part of the MCU, I think it's great. It's funny and carries the 2hrs of lenght extremely well (time literally flies). It has an interesting and fairly captivating story and yes, it's not a masterpiece, but it's a goddamn good Marvel movie.
Most people do not understand the importance of seeing a female super hero not being sexualised for once, and saying "I have nothing to prove to you".
Just watch it without getting biased by the nonsensical hate and make your own judgment.
