My best friend wanted to see it so I saw it with him. Had low expectations for it. It was very good. But it wasn't a memorable movie. Thor comparisons are sound. I liked Thor 1 too and proceeded to forget everything about it an hour after I left the theater. But there was a little black girl and her parents sitting next to us and she seemed like she had a blast, so I think this movie did what Larson intended it to do. That's pretty cool.

Yeah the film has a lot more in it if you're a girl or a woman.
Spoiler!

There was a little girl probably around age 8 wearing a Captain Marvel costume when I went. That was pretty cute.

Is it possible we just missed Brie Larson's performance because we don't have two X chromosomes?
I agree with the folks that called it wooden, but women and girls have generally adored it. I don't know if that's because her gender makes her the easiest superhero for them to identify with, or because maybe there's a lot more womanhood to that performance than we as males can recognize. |

I stand by it being one of the better origin films. It's Ant-man level.

I must be a horse of a different color because I really liked the movie. Went to see it with some buddies and we pretty much had the theater to ourselves.
Not sure why some give it a "meh " rating but to each their own. I enjoyed it. |

I think she played the part well. She had this sarcastic personality about her that I can 100% relate to. And she reacted to that biker dude exactly how that type of person would. The movie was hilarious to me. I laughed about every 5 minutes, it was great.

It was entertaining.
I only watched it because I wanted to be prepared for Endgame, but I wasn’t upset having spent money on tickets. |

I support Marvel's cinematic effortisms.
I have criticisms and it's clear that not all of their movies are spectacularly awesome, but some are. And the totality of their accomplishment is fascinating. So I want them to continue to succeed so they will continue on ... and, hopefully, even improve. That's basically why I support every single movie they make. Even if I don't love each individual film, I'll contribute my ticket money with a willing heart. FAX |

There have been some dogs in the MCU, but the overall story has been a fantastic achievement that, imo, eclipses anything else ever done. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk |

My wife and our female roommate loved it. They went in with rock-bottom expectations after seeing the 31% user rating on RT (I didn't really delve into what was driving those scores before we saw it).
I think now we can all agree that a score at that level was pretty ridiculous. |
