On the planet of Hala, the home world of the Kree empire, one of their newest soldiers called Vers(Larson) has been having trouble sleeping and is troubled by dreams of a life she does not remember. To combat this she trains constantly with her commander and teacher Yon-Rogg (Law). He tries to teach her to not be a slave to her emotions when it comes to battle and to control the photon blasts that she shoots from her hands when her emotions get the better of her. She is eager to go out on her first mission and when the Supreme Intelligence, who is basically an advanced A.I that takes the form of someone familiar to anyone who communicates with it, and Vers is told that she will be going with Yon-Rogg and his team to rescue a Kree spy from a nearby planet that holds important knowledge. Their job is to rescue him and keep him from and the information he holds from getting captured by the evil shapeshifting alien race known as the Skrulls who have been at war with the Kree for years. The mission turns out to be a trap and Vers is captured, her mind is probed by the Skrulls, that are looking for a powerful device that could turn the tide of the war. In Vers mind they find the viable info on that and also unlocks some old memories for Vers. She promptly escapes the Skrulls and follows them to earth in an escape ship crash landing in a Blockbuster Video in 1995 on Earth where this device and the person Dr. Wendy Lawson (Benning) with knowledge to the whereabouts of the device. Vers promptly attracts the attention to Shield and one of its agents Nick Fury, a young Nick Fury before he was head of Shield and still had both eyes. At first, he thinks Vers is just some crazy person but after he sees her use her powers and that Skrulls do exist, Fury teams with Vers to find Dr. Lawson and to stop the Skrulls. Along the way Vers discovers that she used to be an air force test pilot and that her name is Carol Danvers. When finding this out she also finds out that her enemies are not her enemies and that those she thought were her friends are her enemies Carol must summon all the strength she always had in her to show the full extent of her powers proving that her emotions do not make her weak. To not only save one race but two and stop this war built on lies and become earth’s greatest and most powerful hero!
Now I hope I got the gist of what the plot to the movie here my friends, with not giving too much away! I tried not to give too much away here so that if you wanted to see it you would be surprised by it and explained it the best I could! It sounds good, and I believe you might agree with me on this! The movie while having been given some lackluster reviews from others did not see what I obviously saw, me a person who has written tons of movie reviews. This movie had a nice mix of action, drama and humor. It was well written with a smart dialogue filled with tons of sarcasm which was more evident in the 90’s. As a person who grew up in the 90’s I loved all the old music from my teenage years, and all the pop culture references along with tech of that time. It was like a trip back to my youth and brought back so many great memories. The acting was pretty good with Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson making a great team showing they had great chemistry. They broth brought wit and heart to their characters. Some great action as always, it flowed nicely with a few slow parts but not toobad. A nice addition to the MCU. A pretty good job at Marvel’s first female superhero movie and a nice lead in in the post credit scenes to Avengers: Endgame. This movie gets a 7.2 on The Justin Scale Of Movies and gets a place on my Pick-It list of movies to see in theater. That’s a wrap here my friends on this latest movie review! Until next time, keep that popcorn freshly popped and save me a good seat because I will be seeing you again at the movies!
