I'm actually shocked at the response this film is getting on here because I was attacked only a few months ago for saying how stupid it is that Captain Marvel is being brought in not Adam Warlock especially as they have been teasing him for years now in the MCU and he is the right one to end Thanos.

They must be saving Adam for the next phase. Powerful yet complicated hero and villain makes for an interesting story. If they introduce him and then the Magus (the evil version of him form the future) that would be great. I don;t think they'd have long enough to introduce him and do him justice at this point.

The embargo for reviews has been lifted so they'll probably be several early reviews up today. There are already some Non-spoiler YouTube reviews up:

Cool sounds about what I expected a good\ok but not great movie. Going to watch this Friday and I'll come back and give my thoughts. I haven't seen an MCU movie as bad as the first Thor or Captain America since those came out. As long as it's not that bad I'm good.

Was interesting to hear one of the reviewers mention that he never saw her do anything that made her super powerful like they claimed. That he felt Thor was still more powerful than she was.

Seems reviews are about expected, average review 7/10 despite that rotten tomatoes score.
 
I won't be seeing Captain Deus ex machina

so unfair to shoehorn her into this infinity war story
 
While I'm sure it has been discussed here before does anyone else here wonder if Rotten Tomatoes particular way of arriving at its percentages, paired with how many people use it as an indicator of whether they want to see a movie or not, incentivizes blockbuster studios to formulaically play it safe? It's one of the quirks of Rotten Tomatoes rotten/fresh score system is that a pretty mediocre but enjoyable movie that gets one hundred 6/10 reviews will appear 100% fresh, while an original, challenging, deep and somewhat polarizing movie that gets ninety 10/10 reviews and ten 4/10 reviews will only get 90% fresh - but many, many people take the fresh meter as a simple indicator of a review average or of quality. With how much this site affects what people think is a must-see movie, I'm a bit concerned that studios are blowing opportunities like Captain Marvel by trying to play it safe and keep those RT numbers high.
 
I'll be seeing this movie. I don't care about whiney men who are crying about what Brie said and I don't care about SJW people who are super feminist up either.

I think Brie Larson is cute. Her personality in interviews makes her hot to me. She's funny. I'm looking forward to Captain Marvel.

If you're a whiney man child who is boycotting this movie, don't worry. I've read that it does nothing to further the plot to Infinity War or End Game.
 
I’ll still be watching this, just because I’m curious how this will tie into the next avengers.
 
This one just doesn’t intrest me too much. Probably because I’m so hyped for endgame. I’ll watch it at some point.
 
No surprise RT has the virtue signal burning brightly. Metacritic has it at 66 so far

I always like seeing who has the balls the throw such a polarizing movie under the bus. I'm sure the movie will still do well enough financially.

The picture is not dull, exactly, just mundane, marked by unimaginative plotting, cut-rate villains, a bland visual style and a lack of elan in every department. Read full review

By the time I got to the end of Captain Marvel...I heard the voice of my own inner superhero, Peggy Lee, whispering in my ear: Is that all there is? The most heinous supervillain of all is Boredom. Read full review

What’s said to be Marvel’s most powerful superhero ever is served Melatonin by Larson. There is precious little texture or detail, ups and downs, or emotions of any kind in her performance. The character, even when kicking ass, is a total bore. Such as it is, the film’s best moments are provided by Jackson and a hilarious cat. Read full review

Here comes another mcu film that has jokes every 2 minutes and takes no risks.

Boring
