(THREE STARS)
The first Captain Marvel It wasn’t exactly wonderful, but it had well-placed moments of adventure, although what it wanted to say about female empowerment was a bit trivial. This second one is just trivial. It’s not that the viewer is going to get bored, but here all the problems of Marvel In recent years, they explode.
If you don’t know where Kamala Kahn’s or Monica Rambeau’s powers come from because you haven’t watched the Ms. Marvel and WandaVision series on Disney+, something isn’t going to stop you. Other jokes come from previous moments of this increasingly cumbersome (“complex” is a very generous term) network of series and movies that left aside pure adventure or the enjoyment of action and wonder.
Because yes, another problem is “we are going to teach several life lessons” (here it is easy: since the powers of the three protagonists are “entangled”, they have to work as a team and also, since they have different ethnicities and ages, tolerate each other. and integrate) and, instead of opting for the wild joy of movement, he opts for the outrage of an allegory with remorse.
Yes, well, there are good scenes, the fan will have his cinematic figurines to continue collecting, and there is Samuel Jackson, who lifts anything by just saying two words. For now, the MCU ended in Endgame.
