Finally saw it today and...


...I thought it was only so-so. My problem with the movie isn't really Brie Larson's character, Carol Dan/Vers, but with her superpower, which is overpowered and far-fetched IMHO. I mean, are you telling me she blew up some kind of reactor and absorbed it's power, and she's human too? A human who was raised by the Kree, as far as I can see?

yeh pretty much, but lets not forget its the power of the teseract , its pretty much accurate to the 1960s comic origins, this is nothing new.

The character debuted in Marvel Super-Heroes #13 (March 1968) by writer Roy Thomas and artist Gene Colan. In the story, she is an officer in the United States Air Force and Security Chief of a restricted military base, where Danvers meets Dr. Walter Lawson, the human alias of alien Kree hero Captain Marvel.[4] In a later story, Danvers is caught in the explosion of a Kree device after trying to get close to Captain Marvel.[5] Although Captain Marvel manages to save her life, Danvers sustains serious injuries.
