Meh. Couldn't give any less of a shit what political views the actors I'm currently watching have. I go to the movies to escape reality for a couple of hours.

Which is exactly how the majority of people feel, myself included.

The "girl power" was minimal but my complaint was the "grrrl power" music trope that was used over and over. It was lazy and cliched.

It’s a solid 7/10 for me. The first half was super slow but after that it was entertaining.
Wrong...it was all over the place, all through out the movie.

Every man in this movie was a doofy, bumbling clown...or a coward.

You can still have strong female and male characters and not go Last Jedi on a film.

This movie had an agenda...that was clear as day, and it was unnecessary. Captain Marvel went full Last Jedi.

Personally, I think it's super cool that film (like music and tap-dancing) is perceived subjectively.

It doesn't count as social progress if you just 'stuntcast' a woman into a man's role. You're not diversifying the actual narratives.

[Don't ask me how they reconcile Sarah Connor being driven by maternal instinct. I'm sure they came up with something about the bourgeoisie and patriarchal roleplay.]

Wow. So now 'they' get to decide what is and what is not feminine? Sounds like a huge load of sexist bullshit.

Don't care. I've only seen the big 'tentpole' Marvel movies in theatres anyway. I think it's just been Age of Ultron, Civil War and Infinity War. I'll go see Endgame when it comes out.

Everything else I've just waited for on Netflix and have been varying degrees of mindlessly entertained or somewhat disappointed.

Oh, and I just re-watched Black Panther. Seriously - if that thing didn't get embraced by the black community, it could've just as easily been scorned as being crazy racist. I'm watching that movie with people literally throwing spears and howling like gorillas and am wondering who the hell had the balls to make that. I mean that's dancing on a knife's edge right there.

The SJWs could've just as easily decided that it was blacksploitation rather than black empowerment, right? Am I completely nuts? How does taking a shitload of racial tropes from the 40s and applying them to an advanced African tribe (who became advanced simply by happy accident; they were the tribe that landed on the Vibranium) make them NOT racial tropes? There was a ton of cognitive dissonance there.
Holy shit. How did I miss all this? You're spot on best I can tell.

Not a bad movie just not a great one. The Skrull make up looked goofy and amateurish. The "Grrrrrrril" rock songs got old after the second song.

Seems like there was a better movie lurking under the surface, it just couldn't get out.

And one big thing that made no sense...

Sigourney Weaver walking around in her panties looked damn feminine to me. And she was badass xenomorph slayer also.

It was ok, probably around the middle or bottom of the Marvel series for me. Not even close to the epicness of Black Panther.

I was entertained, but nothing truly special.

The girl power stuff didn't bother me.

I thought it was an underwhelming movie.

Glad I only paid $5 for the early show.
