I think I'm hitting that point with MCU movies where even when they don't really connected to the rest of the MCU very strongly, I just feel tired watching them. Black Panther managed to be unique enough to push past that barrier, but this one mostly just feels like The Origin-est of All Origin Stories. There's not a single unexpected moment or turn in here. I feel like I've seen this movie at LEAST six times before. It's an all right movie in and of itself, I had an OK time watching it, but it would be better if it was like... the first movie I'd ever seen and I had nothing to compare it to. But I'm glad it exists. Representation is good.
How it entered my Flickchart:
Captain Marvel < John Dies at the End
Captain Marvel > Lincoln
Captain Marvel > How I Live Now
Captain Marvel > The Exorcism of Emily Rose
Captain Marvel < Ghost Ship
Captain Marvel < Ballet Shoes
Captain Marvel < Hustle & Flow

Final spot: #1630 out of 2932.
