Ok, I will start this one.

Family went to see this yesterday ( in a fully sold out theater - haven’t seen that in a bit) and I will as I enjoyed it, as I admittedly do for most of this genre.
Good origin story, set in the 90’s so fun retro stuff for those of of a certain age. And fun to see Fury and Colson as pups. This does fill in some time line stuff in the MCU and sets up for the next Avengers movie.
It was good to see a strong female lead for Marvel, and as the father of a daughter I appreciate the message.
And Marvel cat-aliens are badass.

I was never truly interested in this movie and hate that they released it a month before Infinity Wars: Endgame just so we would familiarize ourselves with the character who is heavily rumored to be the one to defeat Thanos. This was before I found out about all the social justice garbage that Brie Larson has been forcing down the throats of interviewers.

I'll see Captain Marvel when she appears in Endgame but not before.

Hit the nail on the head

Larson has been a HUGE turnoff with her BS. Flush twice: once for her, the other for her movie.

I had a free pass so, saw it last night, the movie is middle of the road as far as MCU film quality.

The Captain Marvel character isn't fully developed and in many ways, either haphazard or, assumed situational dialogue. There's a number of ques you can pick-up that this was a female written and driven script, lots of subtle touches, which is a departure from the action-packed/sequenced scenes of past comic hero movies. For the Marvel Universe purest, there's some departures/license with regards to the Kree/Skrull storyline. The cat is endearing, plenty of orange cats will get adopted this Spring. Was hoping that Celestials would be more involved or, explained or, a crack at what's to come for Phase-4/5.

The overbearing, strong women/fight the patriarchy attitude of the media and the marketing machine is a turn-off, I like Larson but alas, she's another of the endless legion of liberal actors who need to speak-out.

I will not be contributing to this movie. If production companies want to cast BL in a SJW movie, more power to them. But if those same studios try to pass off their SJW movie as a superhero movie, you could not pay me to see it. Much less charge me.

I will hesitate to even see Endgame in theaters, due to this movie. If it turns out this Mary Sue just shows up and deletes Thanos, I'll write off the MCU for good.

Worst Marvel film I have seen yet.

I am also done with the theaters. Millennials have to check their phones, have to talk, have to fidget, and the rest of us have to deal with their ADD. I’ll seen Endgame at the end of the summer when it hits Blu-Ray.

Saw it with my nieces (wasn't strong enough to refuse them). Loved the Stan Lee tribute as well as his cameo. I did picture the Theme fro "The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly" at one point. Overall I gave it a meh.

Saw it on Sunday and really enjoyed it. I didn't know about any SJW bs that was associated with the movie or Larson. I didn't really see the SJW stuff come through on the screen. Larson did a good job. I thought it was a good story that, if anything, made a bigger deal of her being human than a female. As for as the how well it fits into the MCU, I thought it was great as a casual viewer of the movies that doesn't care a lick about the comics.

I thought effects to make Samuel Jackson younger were outstanding.

Wife and I saw it this past weekend and liked it. I’d agree with it’s a middle of the road MCU movie. I actually really enjoyed the plot, but the main character’s acting seemed really one dimensional. The character she created reminded me of a cloned/less developed Black Widow type character.

I didn’t and still don’t know anything about her politics or whatever, her portrayal just seemed flat to me. I thought her female pilot friend was excellent though character wise. I really enjoyed the scenes she was in. Jude Law was also meh, and Samuel Jackson is as always awesome. I honestly think he just doesn’t age, they probably just gave him a 90s haircut and let him rip, lol. Again, I did really like the the overall plot, if Jude Law and Brie Larson were replaced with better performances than I think it’d be one of my favorites.

When she's sparing with Jude Law, he keeps reminding her to keep her emotions in-check and not use her powers. A classic feminists complaint about the patriarchy Cheers went up from the feminazis in the audience when she smoked him in the following sparing session.
There supposedly another scene where she's sneering and somebody (Fury?) tells her to smile more, and she flashes a F-U look. Another touch-point the feminazis like to point-out when feeling oppressed.

I won't be seeing it. Between Larson and Jackson, I won't see any movie with them in it ever again.

From Samuel L. Jackson interview:

Jackson Interview



Samuel L. Jackson doesn’t care if supporters of President Trump no longer see his movies.



During an interview with Esquire published this week, the veteran actor trashed the president, referring to him with some unflattering expletives.

“This motherf--ker is like ruining the planet and all kinds of other crazy s--t,” the 70-year-old actor said. “And the people think that’s OK. It’s not f--king OK. And if you’re not saying anything, then you’re complicit.”

When asked if he was worried about antagonizing Trump voters, the "Avengers" star dismissed concerns: “I know how many motherf--kers hate me. ‘I’m never going to see a Sam Jackson movie again.’ F--k I care? If you never went to another movie I did in my life, I’m not going to lose any money. I already cashed that check. F--k you. Burn up my videotapes. I don’t give a f--k.”

Jackson also slammed critics who say he shouldn’t wade into politics and that he should “stick to acting.”

“No, motherf--ker. I’m a human being that feels a certain way. And some of this s--t does affect me, because if we don’t have health care ... and my relatives get sick, they’re going to call my rich a--,” Jackson continued. “I want them to have health care. I want them to be able to take care of themselves. This is how I feel. And I count to 100 some days before I hit ‘send,’ because I know how that s--t is.”

I saw it today. It was markedly better than Black Panther. However, the story is terribly scattered.

LMAO. I throw it back in their faces on dates when I tell them to pay the check. You can’t cherry pick being equals. It’s an all or nothing deal. I’m happy to let the Fems lead, kick butt in action movie, etc, but they need to fucking understand that equal means paying your share, of everything. The mortgage, the utilities, name it, or shut up with all that.

Saw it today. We thought it was good, but barely scraped into character development. Still a 2 hour movie, so I guess we got our nickel's worth.

Does it get any more 90's cool than Jules Winnfield driving a black Chevy Impala SS?

Kind of a solid, "Meh" from me. Entertaining but not great, the side stories were more interesting than the main plot.

Saw it today. Was pleasantly surprised by it. There were certainly undertones of social justice in certain scenes but they did not kill the more enjoyable parts of the movie.

I thought it was pretty bad compared to other Marvel movies. First the story wasn't great and had too much of SJW elements in it. Second, the fights ranged from not good to bad. Surprisingly, Captain Marvel won best fight scene of the year from MTV Awards........over Captain America fighting Thanos in Endgame. Yes, that is the truth, more SJW pandering at work. Third, the whole thing about Brie doing her own stunts was a bunch of horseshit. You could tell that for most of the Captain Marvel movie almost all of the actions shots were of her stunt doubles. Her stunt doubles have clearly much more athletic bodies. It was so apparent it was like comparing a crossfit/martial arts trained female with a twice a week yoga female. I mean Captain Marvel/stunt doubles would have shoulders, toned muscular legs and great booty in one scene and then none of those in the next scene where you could tell it was Brie.

That shit was a feminazi's wet dream. Hollywood was tripping over themselves trying to get as much SJW shit in as they could.

Disney product, same as the last Star Wars. Disney is the one pushing the agenda to appease millennials.
