Excellent from DC Comics

Im not usually one for watching DC, I much prefer Marvel but this series has definitely turned my head. Great storyline, with a few flashbacks as to how Dick became Batman's partner. Then the stories of the other heroes are just as interesting and weaved into the whole season. I've nearly finished this season and already cant wait for the next.
It has amazing graphics which I guess you would expect from DC anyway. I love the way the heroes band together to make a surrogate family.

Good but nothing special

I feel a little let down by Captain Marvel. It isn't a bad film but neither was it up to the standard of other Marvel films. And I'm not entirely sure why.

Something about this felt a bit meh and lacklustre, especially the first half hour or so. And even when Nick Fury comes in, it still feels like there's something missing at times. Brie Larson is good and I do quite like her, Samuel L Jackson is great as a less serious rookie Fury and the rest of the supporting cast too are good. Although there could have been a little more Jude Law. The star of the show is definitely Goose by far, and this film would've been a lot worse off without him in it. I think the major issue with me is it seemed to be lacking in humour. And when there was jokes and one liners, the majority of these fell flat. It seemed to be lacking a bit if the usual Marvel pizzazz. The soundtrack is pretty good though.

My only other criticism is the weak excuse that has been put forward to explain her absence in the rest of the Marvel universe so far. I've never read any back story or comics etc so I dont know if it's it ties in with them, but it was a little disappointing.

Initially, I thought the jokes falling flat may have been on purpose as part of her character... But now, after seeing it 2 more times, I'm thinking Larson just isn't funny (I don't like her at all).

Lived up to MY expectations!

I loved this! Captain Marvel isn’t really one of the comics that I’ve read before, so I didn’t know what to expect (other than what my 14 year old Marvel-officianado son had lectured me about ?). I loved the storyline, I loved the soundtrack (I’m going to find it on Spotify and probably play it to death), and I loved Brie Larson. Oh, and Nick Fury. Great cast, great story. I’ll stop gushing about it now.
And as usual, there were a couple of extra bits at the end of the movie. I still can’t understand why people leave before the end - surely everyone knows they do this now?! And THESE extra bits actually drew gasps from the audience (and this is England, folks! To gasp is tantamount to a riot!!)!
