Captain Marvel: A Spoiler Free Review

By special arrangement I have seen the latest chapter in the Marvel saga, Captain Marvel.

This review is spoiler free.

I find this a worthy addition to the series, neither the worst nor the best. The themes of empowerment are a little heavy handed, but it is the right time in the cultural zeitgeist to make these points.

The massive support for the movie by a certain government's military is blindingly obvious even well before the end credits.

Of course, one must take care to respect the kitty. Nick Furry fans will rejoice. (sic? or was that hic?)

Obviously stay for both cut scenes, as this is a Marvel movie.

There is a touch at the very beginning that die hard fans will greatly appreciate.

Keep those membership cards, folks, you never know when you might need to rent a video.

What is it with Marvel and security guards, anyway?

I thought the heel face turns were blindingly obvious from the previews. I was only partly correct.

Go with an open mind and enjoy.
