It was quite fun. I think Kamala might be one of my favorite new characters. Her being around just lightens the scenes. Although I do think that the pacing is a bit rushed. Movie is less than 2 hours long so maybe they could have gone longer and give each act a bit more time.

I love musicals usually but having random songs in the middle of the movie just felt a bit awkward. Definitely funny but I found it a bit cringey.

Also that mid credits scene. They just threw X-Men right in there!

Edit to add: my biggest question to my partner when we walked out of the movie: how come now there are so many people with the power to just break reality suddenly? I hope that gets explained that’s not just “we need the movies to have bigger stakes”

Just saw it, honestly not too bad, I see why it’s like kinda mid cuz there wasn’t really much of a climax and not like, engaging in the same way some other stuff has been, but it’s a fine movie, if you ignore the standards of the MCU, imo. I may be biased by the mid-credits scene, but it was fun — and to me that’s more important than a lot of things. Not much character development or room to breathe though, which was a shame. And no resolution for the first two planets.

Honestly just excited to see more of Ms. Marvel!

I don’t know where any of the positive reviews are coming from. It was awful. Not even for a MCU movie, it was a bad movie, period. Everything is so disjointed and all over the place. There’s no explanation for things that need explanations and they over-explain things that are obvious. The villain, while having some motivation, was just weak and forgettable.

Brie Larson was in and out. Sometimes she was decent, but a lot of times felt like she was reading off cue cards. Teyonah Parris was OK, but she’s terrible at fight choreography. She kept running up and getting in position constantly and just looked off. Sam Jackson was a clown. I mean I don’t think he had a single line that wasn’t a joke. I don’t even get his characterization at all. Iman Vellani was the best thing about this film. She was a delight every time she was on screen and I love how she’s the new ‘Fury’ in recruiting the YA team. Glad to see references to the other members finally.

The whole singing planet was just…IDK. The flerkin stuff was OK but I felt wore out its welcome, especially the end there. But the mid credits scene was interesting. Beast looked kinda weird, but he seems to be a completely CGI character and not Kelsey Grammar, despite using his voice. So I wonder if the X-Men are only in that universe. It would give an explanation why we haven’t seen any mutants up until recently.

I’m still in as a long time Marvel fan, but wow, this movie was a mess.

This might be a coincidence, but Kamala’s fantasy at the start of the movie and the music video for Beastie Boys’ “Intergalactic” are both about defending a city from a giant robot.

Anybody else feel like there were a few scenes which had too much information removed due to hasty editing? Mainly how quickly Carol flies to the Kree spaceship when the characters first start switching, and later when the movie skips over how Carol’s spaceship docked with the struggling SABER space station.

Aladna reminded me of Pabu from The Bad Batch: each is an ocean planet with a single island society holding a utopian close community.

The make-up department must be getting a break since it seems like the Kree are getting decreasingly blue and Fury’s space crew is getting decreasingly alien-looking (Skrull or otherwise).

I think there is a canonicity error in the flashback with Maria and Carol talking; Monica is said to have been “blipped”, but the term wouldn’t make sense in the usage until after Thanos’ snap was reversed. The term “dusted” would make more sense for the setting.

The mid-credits scene could potentially be in the same X-Men universe as in Multiverse of Madness, even though Maria and Prof. X are both alive in this movie’s alt universe. Since the bangles interact with time as well (as seen in the Ms. Marvel series), they could have sent Monica to an earlier point in that universe.

I feel bad for Aamir having to go almost the entire movie (a couple of days?) without his glasses. Couldn’t SABER have made him some?
