Extremally disappointed with this one. Had so high expectations, first Female Hero solo on Marvel, so much room to leave us excited and pumped up, so much could be prepared in anticipation for the Avengers...
It's a simple movie, with a dull main character, Ms Marvel is set without empathy or charisma. History leave us with no explanations and script gives a Villanova that one simply forgets, he is not built so one can hate of love him, he was supposed to be the mentor and only friend of Danvers, that should mean something, it's a relationship that to have a treason as such would be painful and should really disturb both she and the audience... but the Villain does not grow enough not even to be hated.
Captain Marvel is designed as a badass strong for the sake of being strong, and that makes she lack relatability.
Not even mentioning the political bias that makes the Skrull innocent refugees. That is wrong for the marvel memory and for it's fans... All people can be either bad or good, we had Ronan an evil Kree, and all could have peace with it, a people of honored warriors can have bad hateful individuals. But then Marvel sets Kree as an all bad nation, those with strong sense of duty as representing evil. And on the other side the Skrull, race that has done evil all over is now a nice funny friendly all-must-be-protected race. Skrulls can be good, is not a genetic trace the evil, but how can an entire race be set as evil or good and past be erased like that? Question goes for Skrull and Kree alike.
