If you're thinking about streaming this, think again

Rating: 2/10 (1 June 2019)

I streamed this hoping everyone who complained was wrong and really were woman haters. Turns out they were right, and that was a label used to silence legitimate criticisms of this movie.
This was one of the first Marvel movies I chose not to see in theatres, and I'll probably hold off on seeing others in the future due to the lack of quality writing, character building, acting, and some of the comments made by Brie Larson. I try to ignore the talk of movies having a "political agenda", but it's hard not to notice with this one.
The main character's struggles boil down to "I can't remember anything except a few men being really mean to me" and this leads to a number of cringe-inducing one liners and eye roll moments.
The best characters in this are the cat and the Skrull leader, Talos. Both have more character growth then Carol Danvers, sadly.
The way she obtains her powers is less original than most heroes, and it's even worse that she doesn't spend any time learning how to use her powers - after an hour and a half of hoping for some character development, she just suddenly knows how to fly through spaceships... Then the movie ends.
Just a big sigh from me, sadly.
