Review of Captain Marvel (2019) by Yaaa — 09 Mar 2019

HONEST LONG REVIEWS: You know, I’m normally a Marvel fan, but I have to give it a NO for this one. First of all, I was a little bit hesitant on whether I should watch the film or not. Almost a thousand of reviews in a Facebook group (Movie lovers) that I’m in said that they felt really disappointed after watching the film and put it as the least enjoyable movies created by marvel.

However, since I was scared that I might not understand the Avengers-End game, I decided to give it a shot. And yeah, I’m quite disappointed and the reasons are just like the posted feedbacks from the group.

. Firstly, I am also a woman and so do my friends, but we just think that it might have been better, if they recasted Captain Marvel. Brie is perfectly beautiful and we do really enjoy some of her previous films, but in this film, she is just not giving the strongest heroic vibe to the audience.

Her acting isn’t that strong like Johansson or she’s not even as powerful, charismatic or bad ass as Wonder Woman or Harley Quinn. I felt like I have to build up all the excitement during the film by myself.

Secondly, the plot is a little too plain. I mean, if she’s going to be the strongest of them all, why is she just simply looks like a plain unbeatable fly-able hero with flames. Just that ( I don’t know if it’s because of the plot or Brie, but the character is just strong because she‘s called Captain Marvel.

) Thirdly, I know that the film wants to support feminism, but I also felt like some of the parts in the film tried to portray men as the bad rude people. To be honest, Captain Marvel is not that bad. I may still recommend it to some of my friends, but there were just some parts that some of the audiences including me agree that it might could have been better.

Oh also, the cat is incredibly cool.
