Nothing new to offer

Rating: 3/10 (1 April 2019)

Overall an ok movie but doesn't meet the high standards already set by Marvel.
Brie Larson was ok. She started actually being engaging during her training phase alongside Jude Law. She started with charismatic performance with humour, but this performance turned very wooden very quickly.
Samuel L. Jackson was the best performer by far, but this movies plot/writing has ruined his character. Fury was the 'head honcho' of Shield and Avengers who had presence and weight, but here he is portrayed as being inspired by Captain Marvel even tho she didn't earn that level of adoration whatsoever. Also, how Fury lost his eye was pathetic and disrespectful to his character. He is shown cowering holding a cat during a gunfight which annoyed me because it's just not a true representation of Nick Fury at all.
Captain Marvel / Carol Danvers, although showing potential at first, shown zero character development or significant arc, she remains unjustly cocky throughout and un-engaging for most of movie and ridiculously overpowered for no real reason other than she 'absorbed' an explosion and inherited these powers for no logical reason.
Overall a decent movie, fantastic CGI with de-aging effects but definitely not rewatching or buying on Blu-Ray.
