Captain Marvel...

Ticket sales are over 900 million and appears this film has survived the initial criticisms.
not to mention it dovetails from Infinity War and leads us into Endgame. I'm planning to see it this weekend.
 
It is a very typical Marvel movie. If you have seen a few and like them, then you'll like this one too. If you don't like them you won't like this.
 
Anyway,
Movie was pretty good, for me a 8/10. Its a complicated storyline(no spoilers)and tough to explain in 1 film. It methodically builds but I think the pay off is worth it. Sam Jackson’s Fury is nothing like the Fury we know now so that was interesting in a good way.
Some similar -Female gaining overdue equality undertones- to Wonder Woman which felt natural to the story, wished for bit more action overall, good soundtrack and overall better acting than a few other Marvel movies. Some great supporting roles (Mendelsohn, Lynch, cat, etc..)
I think Brie Larson was a solid casting choice but not a home run yet(like Thor, Iron Man), seemed she tried some Deadpool comedic timing but struggled with it. Larson excelled in any physical scenes and is easy to root for. I found her very likable though and she should be more comfortable in sequels.
One big criticism we all had out loud was with Ronan the Accusers casting. Found him laughable.

Did you find him laughable in GOTG too? I'm confused, since it's the same guy in both.
