It was always going to do well, it’s a marvel movie tied into the main arc it was never going to flop.
Just saw it, forget all the drama
Movie is MEH
First act was okay, second act it starts to fall apart and the third act is a flat out fustercluck.
It’s not terrible, but it does pander when it shouldn’t and doesn’t need to.
MCU is defiiitely trading down, from Iron Man driving the boat to Captain Marvel.
It’s a 3 out of 5 stars movie.
My guess is it will underperform expectations, but certainly be the biggest film this year in ticket sales until another MCU movie is released.
They have two more this year. Endgame will be the big one. I’ll see it on TV. I’ll never watch this or Woker-Man. The previous Spider-Man was the most SJW Marvel movie until now. Oh, and these will all be left behind when Episode IX hits. Disney isn’t hurting by going full Left.
Nice review.
But does any of that matter?
The market will go see these films no matter what. If it’s not so good, it’s fodder for discussion.
Yeah. That’s what I have heard from others: it’s about 3 out of 5 stars. A little lazy in the writing, a bit too much (but not obnoxiously so) feminist, and an OK diversion. Given it is part of the MCU, it will make a boat load of money. Heck, I may even go see it. Marvel could have done better, but this is not a Star Wars level epic fail. Won’t hurt the franchise.
Poorly written. The supporting cast was really good, especially Jackson and Mendohlson. The leading so-called “lady”? Hands down the worst part of the film. I had low expectations for her as it was, but she managed to duck them anyway. She was really, really bad. Even my kids, who love all things Marvel, were generally underwhelmed. They thought the cat was great, though.
