Movie Info & Cast
Synopsis
It’s 1995, and there’s a war in space. The shape-shifting Skrulls battle their mortal enemies, the proud and forceful Kree. Human-Kree hybrid Carol Danvers is caught right in the middle. The former Air Force pilot, played by Oscar-winner Brie Larson (Room), ends up as one of the most powerful warriors fighting alongside the Kree. When she comes to Earth in pursuit of a Skrull force, Carol begins to question who she is. Where did she come from? Why does she keep having memories of a past life? And how did an Earth woman end up in space?
As Captain Marvel, Carol is one of the most powerful heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Captain Marvel tells her story, and explains how Carol met Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) long before he ran S.H.I.E.L.D. The flashback story sets up Captain Marvel to make a heroic entrance in Avengers: Endgame, in which she may be the essential element that allows the Avengers to defeat Thanos.

These stars are not for Brie Larson, I will sacrifice my own life…for Brie Larson
Iman VellaniMar 6, 2019This is what happens when all the better Marvel producers, writers, and directors are busy with Avengers: Endgame.
IanMar 5, 2019For a film that’s almost completely incoherent for most of its first act — and seldom finds its footing after that — “Captain Marvel” is rather clear about its one big idea. Jude Law, playing an alien military commander named Yon-Rogg, mansplains it to his promising female…

Carol Denvers looking down at the camera saying, "I don't have anything to prove to you" is so badass that I almost choke while eating my burger. And also, I refuse to believe they are friends. There is so much sexual tension between Carol and Maria I can feel THAT energy…

LucyMar 4, 2019Should it be enough that one of these is finally fronted by a female superhero who decides when and how to exercise her own formidable power? Maybe, but the movie surrounding her is an old-school MCU expository slog with almost zero narrative or visual idiosyncrasy. And…

darlene.13 lovedCaptain MarvelI think this movie is overly hated and deeply underrated. I remember the feeling of empowerment when i watched it for the first time in theaters. I get the writing may have been off in some places but i think this movie is super important for women.
MK likedCaptain Marvelokay, here me out. it’s a good movie and you gotta watch it so you understand her back story just like any other superhero.
Kaifloofle dislikedCaptain MarvelId rather get hit by a semi truck then watch this again

Captain Marvel is so annoying
Julian Pullicino dislikedCaptain Marvel4/10. Worst phase 3 movie.
Jjcoolman14 dislikedCaptain MarvelWe can all agree this just wasn’t a good movie, not as entertaining as everything else marvel releases. Great character addition to the mcu but that’s about it Unpopular opinion: I thought dark phoenix was better
- Onyinyechi likedCaptain Marvel
decent movie… let’s be honest this better than half the Thor movies :/
biteyplant lovedCaptain MarvelThis is more of a movie that adds information to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Especially about Nick Fury’s backstory and how he lost his eye and how S.H.I.E.L.D. came about. It’s a very classic Marvel movie but I was entertained nonetheless.
Superbad is "meh" onCaptain MarvelIts just meh, starting to realize this while rewatching these mcu movies

Leaving out the drama of how a few men are still bothered... I truly enjoyed this movie. I think many people are upset that the strongest avenger currently is a woman. This is coming from a 26 year old man lol
SMShawn MayMovie led up to the hype, post credit got me ready for endgame
APAnthony PipitoneA solid MCU movie. Don't listen to the butthurt incels boycotting this one (besides, if they're truly boycotting it then they haven't seen it to tell you if it's good or not). Just enough comedy and plenty of action makes it fit right in with the other MCU films.

Didn’t listen to those negative reviews. This was another great Marvel movie. It also gives me a clue as to how Ironman and nebula will get rescued. Can’t wait to see if I’m right. Go see it. It’s Marvelous
HTHeriberto TrevinoA cheesy and refreshing origin story set in the 90’s with a solid cast blended into it.A few examples would be Ben Mendelsoh who played the main villain Talos,Jude Law(Yon-Rogg),Samuel Jackson’s (Nick Fury),Lyshana Lynch (Maria) and Brie Larson who killed it as the…
ALAmanda LimaGreat 90's music sprinkled throughout. Loved the easy back and forth between Captain Marvel and Fury. Very empowering watching her as a tough, determined and charming woman.

Beginning was confusing especially if your familiar with the comics but great movie
DSDavid SalemLoved it , it totally tied up a lot of loose storylines together over several films
VQVivienne QuinonesFunny, full of twists, great time at the movies

The best reason to see the movie is Larson, who showed how terrific she could be in Short Term 12 and Room as women whose ways of fighting back were frustratingly earthbound.

This shiny and progressive and golly-gee packaging misrepresents how Captain Marvel made its way into the world, and what it is actually about. Namely: money, the easy exploitation of intellectual-property, artistic conformity and queasy politics that undermine whatever liberal notions it’s peddling.

So why does Captain Marvel feel like a bit of a disappointment? It’s fine and often quite funny. It fits securely within the MCU but also functions sufficiently as a stand-alone entity. But the character, and the tremendous actress playing her in Oscar-winner Brie Larson, deserved more than fine.
