Top critical review
2.0 out of 5 starsA convoluted, forgettable mess.
Reviewed in Australia on 13 February 2021
I bought this from amazon because it was just under 4 bucks and I hadn't seen it. I had purposely avoided it because of the obnoxious Brie Larson and her female Captain Marvel character. Anybody who knows their Marvel comics knows that Captain Marvel is a guy. Be that as it may, this movie plods along for almost 3 hours and after about an hour I was praying for it to finish. When it actually did finish I wanted my three hours of life AND my four bucks back. This movie is a bloated, bombastic, non-sensical, and ultimately forgettable pile of rubbish with half-Hulks, pot-bellied Thors, Hawkeye with a stupid new mullet haircut, and time travel. The good news is that I believe this movie is the end... at least for some of the original Marvel characters like Black Widow, Iron Man, & Captain America. They sure don't make movies like they used to... and that nostalgic 1940s music over the end credits made me yearn for some of the stuff from Hollywood's Golden Age when one left the cinema with a feeling of satisfaction and an evening well spent. This movie will leave you with a headache and wondering "what the hell was THAT all about?".
