The Marvels (2023)
6/10
It could have been such a great fun team up movie

I just watched the film last night and I felt pretty mixed on it. I did like certain elements like the interactions between Monica and Carol. I liked exploring the morals and ethics behind being a superhero and sometimes you dont always get it right. I felt like they gave good motivations for Dar Benn. I thought Kamala was great. But otherwise, storywise it felt kind of rushed. Plus I really didnt like the Valkyrie cameo. It felt like it was thrown in to queerbait audiences. Im not against them being a couple potentially but weve never seen those 2 characters directly interact with each other at all so it just felt kind of random and forced. And as someone who loves musicals and was actually looking forward to that element going in, the whole singing planet scene was super cringey. I dont think its the worst MCU project this year. But it was just so meh. Which is so disappointing because I was looking forward to this one probably the most as someone who really enjoyed the first Captain Marvel, Wandavision and Ms Marvel a lot.

Plus the CGI in the post credit scene - AWFUL.
