2023 feels like a distant memory in some ways. It was the year of the Barbenheimer phenomenon, the final season of Succession , and critically acclaimed music from Lana Del Rey and Olivia Rodrigo. Despite only two years passing, it feels like a long time ago, especially regarding superhero movies.

    The film skips the more interesting story of how Captain Marvel became viewed not as the savior of all worlds, but as the villain of the Kree.

    YES. This could have been a worthwhile movie by itself. Blowing the chance to take a non-human perspective was a missed opportunity.

    Overall, I’d say The Marvels wasn’t an especially good movie, but the hate it got was ridiculously disproportionate.
