The blockbuster ‘The Marvels’ directed by Nia DaCosta is a sad experience in the Marvel cinematic universe (MCU) series.
Anyone who considered Eternals and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania to be low-key MCU films will probably be even more disappointed when joining The Marvels ‘ journey.
Once again, audiences find an MCU movie filled with technological babble in a plot that’s not interesting to follow.

The Marvels adds many characters that are either okay or okay, such as a group of cats that scream at feeding time. MCU’s latest movie cost up to 270 million USD but will surely make the audience, once again, bored: “How much longer will this easily abandoned Marvels cinematic universe last?” when Marvel keeps releasing a superhero movie that is “monotone” like that.Current Time0:00/Duration0:00HDAuto

Then, Kree leader Dar-Benn got mad because he thought Captain Marvel destroyed the planet Hala by extinguishing the sun.
Accompanied by very silly action scenes, especially for a cat and then a group of cats appearing as saviors in Kamala’s family.
Released more than 4 years after the first part, The Marvels has a duration of 105 minutes, making it Marvel’s shortest film.
The film does not focus on the trio of female superheroes, but on the villain Dar-Benn, the vengeful Kree leader, seeking revenge on Captain Marvel. This character is not designed to be evil enough or sinister enough to create the audience’s feeling that fighting against Dar-Benn is a matter of life and death.

And The Telegraph commented: “The superhero movie sinks to a new level. The Marvels is the shortest of the MCU films but it is the most dragging, a groaning nightmare with sloppy effects.” Visual effects have long been a trademark of the series”.
