There to fill a gap

Rating: 5/10 (11 March 2019)

While captain marvel offers some good laughs and a great new hero, it is only there because it needs to be, not because it wants to be. The film starts off with a weak storyline, as we begin to learn about who she is, however, this part of the story feels forced and a little slow. However, when she finally flourishes, she really is iconic. As for quality, the film is just like every other marvel origin film with some good twists, it holds no unique value. Same sequence of events, same drama, same action. It feels like it's not wanted,but needed to fill a gap so that Avengers Endgame can take place. If it was wanted, the film should have happened before the first Avengers film even came out. Still worth a watch if you are a dedicated Marvel fan. If not, don't bother.
