Captain Marvel 2019

After a puissant story like Black Panther and exuberantly received fan-service viz Infinity War, Marvel has given a story that is somewhere between insipid to tenuous with formulaic comedy which is extremely boring. A life threatening, serious situation and all of a sudden there's comedy. It's expected and not funny anymore. Marvel uses this in almost all the movies now from Thor: Ragnarok to Infinity War. Even if the lack of a strong villain could have been ignored, the movie lacks the connect to make you feel like Captain Marvel has outgrown personal adversities fighting her inner demons. The movie is incomparable to Wonder Woman, which had a fair share of it's problem (viz the villain, an emotional ending which felt imposed), while Captain Marvel itself is a problem. The story has a bizarre flow, lacks engaging dialogues, a worthy villain to overcome and doesn't even have entertainment (not even at the expense of the story).

People who found Justice League to be underwhelming should take Captain Marvel as a challenge.
