6/10
Fun movie, with some decent originality in action sequences, but wanders off into crazy-town about halfway through ( dat Bollywood planet, wtf ).
Kamala character was great, very genuine, and actually having fun in the movie, which is rare these days. Samuel Jackson has clearly completely run out of fucks to give.
Also sets a new benchmark for least consistent power levels of superheroes in an individual movie. In the same ending of the same movie, Captain Marvel both struggles to fistfight a random mook AND powers up a literal sun.
It's a shame - there's the bones of an interesting story there, with Captain Marvel having spent the missing years causing massive problems trying to apply simple solutions to complex problems and trying to deal with the ever snowballing fallout. It's pretty much glossed over in an semi-comical fashion and her friends unilaterally forgive her for being a terrorist war-criminal who caused billions of deaths.
