Brie Larson as Captain Marvel
Young Nick Fury
GOOSE
Forget what the review bombers say. This movie was fantastic, an excellent and well planned out entry to the MCU. First off, excellent tribute to Stan Lee at the beginning, well done. Brie Larson was absolutely stunning as Carol Danvers, managing to capture and show the brooding and serious side of Captain Marvel, as well as the witty and humourous side to her. I loved young Nick Fury way more than I do the present day Nick Fury. Ben Menhdolsen, Jude Law, and Annette Bening were absolutely fantastic as their characters. The real star of the show though: GOOSE THE CAT. OH MY WORD, GOOSE. STOLE EVERY SCENE HE WAS IN. The Agents of SHIELD fan in me wanted more Coulson, but I was okay with his screentime.

John Stack seems to have a knack for choosing unusual settings.

His previous novels - <i>Ship of Rome</i>, <i>Captain of Rome</i> and <i>Masters of Rome</i> all concerned the Roman navy during the first Punic war against Carthage. While this novel is not part of that series, it also has another unusual setting: this time, that of the Spanish Armada.

While it does have an unusual setting, it also shares some similarites with those other books: again, the main protaganist of the novel is an outsider, this time a loyal Recusant (or practising, secret, Catholic) in the English navy compared to the Greek captain in the Roman navy of the <i>Masters of the Sea</i> series. Again, a large chunk of it takes place on sea, rather than on land. Again, it is an enjoyable read.

Peter Pan- one of my all time favorite disney classic animations. I remember this one the most. I remember the charcters, the villian- captain hook, peter pan, Tick-Tock the Crocodile, tinker bell, the lost boys, the mermaids, mr. Smee, the idians, the cheif and the message of the movie- growing up.

The Plot: Wendy (Kathryn Beaumont) and her two brothers are amazed when a magical boy named Peter Pan (Bobby Driscoll) flies into their bedroom, supposedly in pursuit of his rebellious shadow. He and his fairy friend, Tinkerbell, come from a far-off place called Neverland, where children stay perpetually young. Enchanted, the kids follow him back. But when Pan's nemesis, the pirate Captain Hook (Hans Conried), causes trouble, the kids begin to miss their old life.

Its a phenomenal movie, with a great/fantastic/excellent message.

Would have been better if it had a R rating (0 more)
Not how I had hope it to be but okay
The fact that certain characters like Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang and Killer Croc made their first appearances with this film along with Amanda Waller and Rick Flagg was the only good thing about this film.

Loved the acting, story and Goose (0 more)
I went to this movie thinking that I wouldnt like it but wound up enjoying it a lot. Briee Larson does a great job as Captain Marvel and I am a 90s kid so I loved the music in the film as well. Goose is my new favorite Marvel character and him and Nick Fury are amazing together.
