Captain Marvel 2019

The movie is weak in all regards.
Soundtrack, mixing, direction, acting, plot, pacing, and on it goes.

It's sad because I loved Brie's performance in "Room", but she's completely miscast here. The awful direction she was given also didn't help. Jackson, Mendelssohn, & Law all embody their characters with a real personality. Larson just... "does" impressions of being strong & snarky; But just one at a time and clearly on a queue, not as fluid aspects of a complete personality that defines the character. Seems like they almost tried to hide that behind the 'I can't remember who I am'.

Think to yourself, "how would I do a (Thor, Iron Man, Black Widow, Captain America, Batman, Forrest Gump, Tom Cruise, etc...) impression?" You have a clear character in your mind to emulate. Now try that with Carol Danvers... I can't.

This movie feels like a total afterthought to the franchise because they couldn't find a place to introduce her in any other movie before Endgame.
