Captain Marvel (2019)

I enjoyed it. Wouldn’t rate it with some of the higher quality marvel movies, but it was well above the worst. Middle of the road. Agree that the second half is better, but I didn’t dislike the first.

Brie does come off as a bit cold at times, but she’s supposed to be a soldier, so expect her to be stoic to some degree. She still shows some fun personality. I voiced my worries that Larson is too “girl next door” to be believable as Carol Danvers, but she ended up being stronger in the role that I had anticipated. They actually did a good job capturing the spirit of the character.

Only criticism

SPOILER: show

The movie never establishes an antagonist that is even remotely capable of going toe to toe with her.
