The Marvels (2023)

My Review

Brie Larson returns as Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel in “The Marvels,” the 33rd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This time she teams up with two of her friends Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) and Kamala Kahn (Iman Vellani) go on more adventures, too complex to divulge in this space. Director-screenwriter Nia DaCosta (“Candyman” 2021) keeps the entirety of the movie filled with action and special effects.

The co-stars include Gary Lewis, Zawe Ashton, Park Seo-joon, Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur, Tessa Thompson, Kelsey Grammar, and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. “The Marvels” did not do as well as hoped in theatrical release for Marvel Studios and Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. Movie-going audiences may be tiring of the content of the MCU.
