OK, I grew up with Marvel, as a kid I bought all the comics, and if I were picking a specialised subject for Mastermind back in the day, it would have been Marvel.
So it is fair to say I have enjoyed seeing the MCU grow into what it is today.
However that is not to say the MCU has been perfect, and I don't expect every movie to hit the mark, but Captain Marvel does make me wonder sometimes what people are thinking? Fair to say I found it pretty uninspiring, which to me should be the minimum a hero movie should be striving to achieve, Yes it had some nice effects, it had mildly amusing moments (although I wish they would stop trying so hard with the jokes) but looking past that, the film has nothing memorable. the films success is guaranteed, but that is because it is Marvel not because it is a great film.
Having said that my daughter loved it, so maybe i'm just not the target audience.
Captain not so Marvelous.

I've seen it and I think it was rather bland, predictable and a bit of a way to help set things up for Avengers Endgame.
The bad guys weren't anything special and to say Captain Marvel is one of the more powerful characters in the Marvel universe I felt it was rather lacking.

middle of the road marvel movie, definitely not the worst just looked like it was a bit of a filler movie before end game to get captain marvel into the mix, but hey the box office numbers are ridiculous so don't think marvel will be too bothered tbf

Ben Mendelsohn was the best thing about it by miles.
Not a fan of Brie Larson's performance, felt very wooden. Haven't seen her in anything else that I can remember so I can't judge if she's a good actress or not, just didn't like her in this role.

she was in kong, I didn't even realise that after kong came on over the weekend and I watched it again thinking she looks familiar, she was actually a lot better in kong as well, agreed that the performance in captain marvel was a bit stiff

I thought it was a good movie. It wasn't ground breaking but what 'backstory' movies are? It was certainly a better introduction than most of the other characters have had.
I thought Larsson was good enough. She gave the character decent personality and I expect the character to grow, as all the others have over the movies.
