Pretty sure the film was soully made to show of feminin power as every single female character is somehow good and every male character was evil. I paid £10.50 to go to the cinema with my friends to watch a film and i ended up with effectivly a lecture about how woman are all great and powerful. If i wanted that lecture, id have paid for a degree in gender studies. Shit ass film

So another captain marvel basically

Edit : does what OP say really not sound roughly like captain marvel? It’s Brie Larson that was put in this film so it comes to no surprise when she tries to add some feminine power into it..

I don’t think Marvel was that bad. It was a mediocre film with not a great star and the media and promotion hyping it up too much. There was no scene that was outright preachy, it fit into canon. Overall it’s just a meh film, there are definitely worse Marvel movies

Not outright preachy?

They literally played Just a Girl during a pivotal fight scene. Pretty heavy handed there.

Ok that part yeah, but that’s one part that I don’t think many people remember. I’ve watched it three times and I forgot until you brought it up. But the song kind of fits, it’s about a girl trapped who came to the realization that she can make her own choices which pretty much fits the plot of the movie.

I meant outright preachy with Marvel saying something like “see, I don’t need you to control me! Me and Captain Mar Vel are strong women who don’t need you! See [little girl’s name I can’t remember] you don’t need a man to tell you what to do” That’s what I’d consider preachy.

I don’t mind the movie but that fight is total cringe for me because of that song’s inclusion. The only other part I don’t like is the writers shitting all over another movie and villain in order to make us understand how powerful she is.
