As passionate fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it's been a rollercoaster of emotions with each new installment post Avengers Endgame. However, the latest addition, "The Marvels," has sparked a profound disappointment, leaving us bewildered and questioning the future of the MCU. Simply put, The Marvels is trash and could possible mark the death of the mcu.
This is the huge problem with the marvels. In our The Marvels review, we delve deep into why "The Marvels" might just be the lowest point in the MCU's illustrious history. The Marvels marks the Pitiful Collapse of the MCU. From an overwhelming number of narrative threads that lack coherence to minimal character development, the film struggles to find its footing. What's more alarming is its heavy reliance on a non-existent movie, "Captain Marvel 2," for essential context, making for an insane amount of exposition that tells a far more interesting story than what we got.
The repercussions of this cinematic misstep reverberate across the MCU landscape, leaving beloved characters like Carol Danvers, Kamala Khan, and Monica Rambeau in a state of disarray. The lack of a cohesive storyline has left many fans feeling disconnected and disillusioned with the future of these once-promising characters.
Join us as we dissect the shortcomings of The Marvels and why The Marvels is bad, why The Marvles is a disaster, and how The Marvels killed the MCU. We also explore how this film marks a tumultuous period for the MCU. Is this the beginning of the end for the MCU as we've known it? Could this be a harbinger of a downfall for these iconic superheroes? We analyze the fallout and implications of this disastrous turn for Marvel's cinematic universe.
Griffin (@griffschiller) gives you his The Marvels movie review and The Marvels explained analysis talking about why the MCU is failing, whether they should reboot the MCU and why The Marvels FAILED. Enjoy this The Marvels video essay and ending explained!

What did you guys think about The Marvels? One of the worst MCU movies? Comment below!💥 Thanks again to Aura! 💻 Go to aura.com/filmspeak to get a 14-day free trial.
I think it surpassed Ant-Man 3 when it comes to disappointment.
Honest, Id rather watch The Marvels than any other movie in Phase 4 or 5. I had low expectations for this movie, and it passed them (in a good way). A lot of things make no sense and you don't realise it while your watching the movie... thats fine. But like i said in my original comment, they need to just make Capt. Marvel a bad guy. she could easy be Thanos level because you can't kill her, shes basically ageless and immortal. Tricking her would be the only way to stop her, and if they want to make more women heroes you could have Wanda erase her mind or something, like have something awful happen to her and she goes nuts and tries to blow up the earth and Wanda Erases the memory.
Actually the villain of the film should have been Captain Marvel. Seriously it would have been interesting pitting the three lead characters against each other and would have made the overpowered Captain Marvel character more interesting. It would have given the movie a Thanos level bad guy who believed that what she was doing was for the greater good. I would have actually payed to see that film.
Absolutely not
this video is clickbait and the movie is good. please touch grass @filmSpeak
Towards the end when Ms Marvel said something like “I’m sorry for fan girling so much, I didn’t really give you space to be an actual person.” I was like oh that’s great, really cool realization for this character to come to… I wish they earned this moment in anyway by focusing on this dynamic
MHMMMM!
And ironically this relationship dynamic is a double edged sword that makes sense in the Comics but makes less sense in the MCU. Consider that in the Comics, Captain Marvel as a Comic Book Hero was well, well, well established long before Kamala Khan existed from her initial Ms. Marvel incarnation to her Captain Marvel graduation. So she already had the Social Credit Score firmly in place to warrant such adoration from a fan, or fans for that matter. But MCU Captain Marvel was a Hero largely known only behind the scenes because nobody except for Fury knew she existed. Doesn't help either that she was brought in out of left field with no proper build up unlike everyone else and the story continuing forward had to make meagre justifications for her inclusion while putting the onus on the audience to just go with it and look the other way because her own movie was spent over deservedly glorifying her instead of fleshing her out properly as a genuine character, but I digress... When the whole world knew about MCU Captain America's WW2 exploits long after he was believed dead, she was not known. When the Avengers Assembled during Chatauri Invasion, Ultron's E.L.E attempt, Clash of Ideals and first Incursion of Thanos, she was nowhere to be found. Hell, even during the most important Final Battle in Endgame that clearly wasn't getting Superbowl coverage for the rest of the world to see their Mightiest Heroes battling the greatest evil in the Universe, she came and almost immediately got yanked off the stage until Stark's Funeral. Compared to the rest of the Avengers, she considerably would have been the least known and even lesser regarded by the MCU public to then puzzlingly be held in such high regard since most of her exploits were off world for the sake of script convenience. So in the context of all that, how in the world does a little girl in the MCU Planet Earth that she (Carol) had little to no impact affecting, that she (Carol) never met IRL or knew about have such a rose colored adulation that borders on Boy Band obsession? It feels hollow to be honest but good on them to decidedly use that moment to dial down the fangirling. My favourite version of Carol on screen is always her "Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes" animated series. Personable without being too smug or arrogant and interestingly had a somewhat romantic entendre with the proper version of Mar-Vell (though I'm somewhat sad it didn't go beyond that), whom she actually derived her powers from. Second is her What-If Party Thor version because I got a kick out them knocking each other all the world map. And speaking of which; "WHAT IF?!" Season 2 is hella enjoyable to look forward to as I did the first Season. Here's hoping she (what if Carol) makes another appearance again.. 👊️😎
@@MoyosoreOgunbiyi I agree with all your points. Also, GOTG3, What-If and Loki are the only things that rekindled my love for MCU so i'm very excited for What if season 2
Can’t believe how badly they messed this up when the potential is there. For tension between characters, Kamala and Carol, learning that your role models aren’t the shining beacon of light that you envisioned and that she’s only human, so she can become her own type of hero and that offers character growth, for Monica and Carol, expand on the tension that was created from Carol basically abandoning her for 30 years but in the end grow to forgive and understand which is capped off by her sacrifice in the end. Also would have liked if Carol did not know about the situation on Hala. Learning about it and why the villain is doing what she’s doing could have created IMMENSE growth for her, learning that her actions have consequences and she needs to be more responsible. The threads were there but the fact that none of that was capitalised on made this movie a lot worse for me
Ima be honest I only read the first two sentences of this comment. But I thought the Marvels was actually not too bad, and even enjoyable
@@JustACactus616read the rest, then 😂
Yeah, Carol could have explained that she didn't know about Halla. Maybe there wasn't enough time to develop the plot?
@@Prodigious1One the film suffers from its short length. That being said, dunno if I trust them to do better with more time
Really? You can't believe how badly Marvel messed up? That has been Marvel Studios modus operandi for the last few years now.
I really hope James Gunn has a strong vision because if there’s anytime for DC to make a comeback it’s definitely now.
That’s it 🎯
i really hope the dc universe dies again begfore even begin, we dont need more super hero movies and we dont need more shared universes, at least make stand alone movies and not just promotional for future things that may not ever be done, like snyder did with their crappy batman vs superman
He casted characters that have proven their greatness in previous projects who actually look identical to the characters we grew up reading and watching. And he said he wants to make it as comic accurate as possible while making it his own thing still. And he said he wants to bring the hopefulness back to Superman. Outside of Henry Cavill being fucked over, I think this upcoming franchise will be perfect.
I tolerated Love & Thunder, I tolerated She-Hulk, I tolerated Quantumania, I tolerated Secret Invasion, but The Marvels without hyperbole has become my breaking point. I swear in Thanos's name that if I gotta sit down and defend DP3, Brave New World, and beyond, my life is over.
I'd be shocked if Deadpool 3 will be bad. It has Ryan Reynolds' fingerprint all over it, god I hope it's great
Its a bit annoying cus they came off a good one in loki just to do this.
Lol! Comic books have similar story lines but the story of the marvels could be stronger. Maybe the original story was more substantial but it was made less serious for some reason?
I wonder if DareDevil: Born again going to have the same gripping action that it had when it was on Netflix. I'm scared Disney going to ruin it like they have everything else...
how could anyone tolerate shehulk? it was far worse than this movie
I think the original script was a 'Don't meet your heroes' story, but it did not test well, so they reshot it as the damp squib that we got.
That's a damn shame...
@@FilmSpeakI hope Americans realize that this means China will be cemented as the new global Superpower since they're launched their own media networks amd animations in Africa. Disney's "Diversity" plan was really an expansion strategy into Africa but at least it's a giant corporation that's losing money instead. Eastern content is dominating Southern Africa in the meantime. And it'll only grow as The West shows it's arse.
seems like woke Disney was too scared to give their woman heroes flaws (flaws are what make a character interesting) They think they're pandering to the women, but no. The fangirls are just as unhappy as the fanboys but that's what would've made this movie a little better y'know? All those years in space saving planets might've made Cap'n Marvel somewhat arrogant and bossy, have Ms.Marvel be uncomfortable with it for the whole movie, and then she calls her hero out in the 3rd act (Captain marvel being Kamala's hero doesn't make sense either considering Carol was mostly unseen by the public eye but that's a whole another topic) another example is in WandaVision. The show could've been a fallen hero or decent into madness story for Wanda which established her as the villain Scarlet Witch in MoM. But nope, Marvel was a coward and backtracked all development she made through the show with lame excuses from Monica and in the credits scene "she read the Darkhold offscreen so she's bad now. No she's not a bad guy, the Darkhold made her like this!!!" Marvel is too scared the break the status quo. But isn't that exactly what the loki series is about?? They should learn from their own story lol
@@acegardianarocrat Um, there's plenty of flaws that female characters are given like Amber in Invincible. INCELS COULDNT STAND IT
@@suzygirl1843 that's the incels fault. I'm talking about normal fangirls and fanboys here
Among many other issues, I think Marvel’s massive success has placed them into a creative comfort zone where they don’t feel like they have to try. They’re already had their Endgame, their main competition is being rebooted for the second time in the same decade, and their cultural reach is just inescapable. Because of that track record, they have come to believe that their success is guaranteed no matter what they do and we will just accept whatever they do. So because of that, they just don’t have to try that hard anymore. Compare that environment to Phase 1, where Marvel had to fight with every movie to prove that this cinematic universe experiment can truly work and they put in the work to earn their success by having audiences grow to care about these characters and their stories. Now Marvel just assumes that we’ll love any character they throw at us regardless of the story, tone, and plot they’re inhabiting; and they’ll quickly finding out that is not the case at all. There’s more issues adding to this from massively over saturating this genre with so much content, telling stories that expect audiences to watch all the movies and shows to understand what’s going on, the horrendous mismanagement of Disney plus, and reducing the multiverse to a glorified cameo machine. Not everything is Marvel’s fault, no one saw the Jonathan Majors situation coming, but Marvel needs to start trying and putting their A game forward again. Guardians 3 and Loki prove they still can and if they can bring that energy and effort to all of their projects, and cut back on the quantity a little bit to focus on quality, I’m sure Marvel will get back on track
The problem is … they’re kind of right. It doesn’t really matter whether people like the film only if it makes a return on investment. It’s not art, it’s not even just entertainment, it’s content. And Marvel is at a point where people will just watch whatever they put out. They may not like it but they will watch it.
@@amysteriousviewer3772Yes but that’s the thing they’re no longer getting a return on their investment. The Marvels is going to lose them Millions. Secret Invasion was outrageously expensive and the ratings were terrible. Ant-Man Quantumania did not do well at the box office. Marvel needs to make better movies now not only to get back to the magic of their previous movies, but in the hope of being profitable again. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 shows if you tell a good story people will go see your movie.
True, but I believe that audiences patience with marvel is startling to run thin. Antman 3 literally failed to break even at the box office and unless Marvels sprouts some legs, it’s going to be the first bomb in the MCU. Guardians 3 was the only movie to be a hit both critically and commercially, and they lost James Gunn to DC and the next “Thanos” level villains with Kang. That’s not a healthy trend for this franchise and if they don’t do something to course correct, it's going to get worse.
Show me the first time DC got rebooted in cinematic form?
We DONT know the Family and Ms Marvel, and we DONT know Monica... Cause only a small percentage of people watched the Disney+ shows at all. Thats the problem of meshing different parts of media together. The average movie goer doesnt know this characters, except Captain Marvel and Nick Fury. And those characters are completely different now, or werent liked in the 1st place. Mesh that together with the last view Movies who disappointed audiences and you get the biggest flop in the MCU, if not Superhero movies overall. Most people are not interested in those new characters to begin with and the higher ups at Marvel do nothing to make them interesting at all. But hey, they are great at blaming the fans, calling them racist sexist and every other modern curse word, cause they demand more. Thats something I guess!
Marvel doesn't disappoint when it comes to disappointment.
bot comment. also literally see this every video it is getting stale.
@@TheJoviLovitheir "name" has spam in it, sad how people waste their time trolling
The reason this movie sucks has nothing to do with misogyny, it's got to do with being a bad quality mess.
They automatically dismissed experienced qualified directors because they didn't check desired identity boxes.
Disney didn't just tarnish the Marvel brand, they utterly wrecked it up to the point that even comic sales are suffering drastically and the legacy, value, status, impact and meaning of its characters is being severely affected. Can the brand recover from such heavy damage? I sure hope so, but that still remains to be seen. If the brand's current state is the price for 10 years of MCU success, then for me the MCU really didn't have to exist. The damage they have done to brand up to this point is of such nature it's nigh irreparable and if, I say 'if' they (or hopefully others) ever manage to do so, this will remain as a big ugly scar on the brand forever. Indelible, like a brandmark. This isn't just about one bad and/or hokey movie and/or TV series from before the MCU, this is way waaay beyond everything that preceded the MCU and was deemed bad and/or hokey. This is a real value, status, impact- and meaning kind of brand damage that could- and most likely will have a lingering effect. I dare go as far as to say that Marvel probably can't and never will be the same ever again. The brand has become hollow, bland, a farse, a joke, a bad punchline, etc. and a tool for overly political correctness propaganda. Yeah, if that is the price for 10 years of MCU success, for me the MCU really didn't have to exist. kzhead.info/sun/m9tse9amZJmLf2g/bejne.html
When I was a kid, crappy TV was free. Now they charge you for every dumb cheap serialized show!!!!
Seriously, Marvel needs to step up their game. This movie’s overall critical reception was not the greatest, and the box office hasn’t been promising to it. I think their biggest issue is trying to follow such a tight schedule. They plan so far ahead for the future and feel like they need to always rush making movies and shows to reach a certain release date, rather than taking time to make the best film they can make.
I have one sentence for this movie, its story shouldve been: Dont meet your heroes
WHO LET BRO COOK 👩🍳
I’m not overloaded. I don’t feel “superhero fatigue”. It’s shitty writing, casting, etc. constantly shoving woke bs up our asses! They need to get back to writing great stories. Stop all the race/sex/orientation swapping. Stop all the force is female nonsense. Have writers who either know the content or research it properly! I’m sorry but a movie headlined by 3 female heroes fighting a gender swapped female villain isn’t something most people want to see. Don’t get me wrong I love certain female characters. But that doesn’t mean that I want to see ones like Jean Grey or Storm in stand alone movies! Disney needs to reinstate the marvel committee. Bring back the likes of Ike Perlmutter and other non woke employees to right this ship. You can’t fix the problem using the same people who caused it. Kevin Feige has to go. For all the acclaim he got for the Infinity saga he’s flushed all that down the drain with the series of shitty movies and shows since. They’ve all been woke pieces of shit for the most part. Loki & Moon Knight being a couple of exceptions. Kathleen Kennedy needs to be fired along with her minions too while they’re at it. If Bob Iger refuses to do what needs time be done then he needs to go too! All of this is ultimately his fault if people look into it!
it goes without saying that just because this movie is bad, female-led action movies are not inherently bad. Aliens, Terminator, wonder woman, kill bill, hunger games just to name a few
When the Fox era came to an end, I was kind of disappointed. While there were some rough spots even towards the end, we still got Deadpool, Legion, Logan, etc. These kinds of things were less likely under Disney/Marvel and I just hated the idea of Disney owning Fox and the thought of many being let go from their job. However the idea of a new version of the X-Men excited me. Now I’m starting to get the impression they got a hold of the X-men, but just wanna give into nostalgia.
Why do you want a rehash of the prequel movies?
The only thing I’ll say about this film is that Vellani as Ms Marvel is a Tom Holland to Spiderman level casting, she’s brilliant and has clear fun in the role and deserves to get a spotlight in a young team with KB and whoever else they want.
Honestly, the fans never cared about the multiverse aside from having the three Spider-Man and saving Deadpool and wolverine
A friend of mine resolved to enjoy this movie no matter what, regardless of how bad it would turn out to be, and regardless of how badly it is actually written and directed. He is the type of audience this movie is for.
On first watch had this movie ranked somewhere between lower and mid 20s in total movies Want more Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan, will agree that certain plot points (specifically everything with the Kree and "Annihilator" arcs) did only go surface level and I could've taken around 10, 15 more minutes of run time fleshing such concepts out further
I wouldn’t say abysmal, but as you expressed, it is a superhero movie filled with missed opportunities
I agree, and I actually enjoyed it!
@@avatarenthusiast2289 I did too. It was quite enjoyable and a refreshing concept! I just really hope 2024 Marvel can return to fleshing out their characters, plots and interconnected worlds/universes again so we collectively as fans can go back to loving our amazing comic book superheroes and villains without so much hate from the media. Seeing so much negativity (though can be warranted) revolving around Marvel does hurt 😢 But on a more lighter note, Iman was a star in this movie and I’m honestly growing more and more fond of her from the interviews to the dazzling energy she brings onto the big screen 💫
Killmoonger also made a difference because his actions got Wakanda to open up to the world
We should not be apologetic for bad movies. It is what it is. Bad. There are tons of bad movies.
I 100% agree about the Fox-Men. Let that universe die already and reboot the X-Men for the MCU. I have no desire to see it in future titles but I'll have to due to this Multiverse saga, which I can't wait for it to end.
Just hope the Rumors about Disney making the Silver Sufer a women is just a rumor. Disney has gold mine by telling the Norrin Radd Story exactly how it is told in the comics. Don't Gender swap a damn thing don't change the colors of the Aliens just tell the story the same way it is in the comics Exactly or as close to exactly the same as they can get.
I Romer if true I don't Romer
"the basement-dwelling, women-hating cinema neckbeards can find something else to hate and... so I don't get looped in with them." you realize those "basement-dwelling" neckbeards feel the same as you right? good for you for joining them
Not really. They hate the film because it prominently features women, not because of actual legitimate criticisms.
U can't hate a bad movie because of women in it?
@@hemantks4353 you replying to me or FilmSpeak?
Iman is so adorable as Ms Marvel Excelsior
I do love her! All of my issues with this film exclude her for sure.
Is anyone going to comment on the split personality of Nick Fury from Secret Invasion to this movie? Like zero effort was made to connect the two.
I agree, this movie was so bad I wanted to rip my eyes out in order to not have to finish it
the things is... I don't care who leads, dude or woman don't give a damn, so either on a positive (like you are trying to implement) or on a negative it doesn't matter, so we need to stop making dumb unneeded comments about that. However when it comes movies, I do care about good story telling, a well build characther, and Marvel wasn't from the get go, heck even in the comics. And then we of course just have the entire MCU kinda just pushing out quantity over quality as well which just sucks! There is no building in these different movies like before, it feels more disconnected and nothing clever going on. And then I am even more pissed about movies that had SUCH good potentiol in base to then be RUINED by terrible jokes! (Love and Thunder, he would you look at that, the lead is a guy and the movie was mostly hated... soo) but man that movie sucked! But imagine if they utulized that damn good idea! There was so much dark potentiol in there, that could create really heartfelt moments, but also makes you sit on the edge of the seat wondering if he will or will not make it through! But the terrible childish jokes just ruined it for me, heck I couldn't even care less that at the end she died, it felt so damn random. And that is a big issue with these current marvel movies! Another great example! the last dr strange, I liked the movie in general, and I love scarlett which (oh would you look at that a woman that is strong and people love because she is well written!) but the problem for me with that movie was the reveal! Why on EARTH did they reveal it so early that it was her.... they should have waited longer, kept us guessing on what is about to happen, who is involved, maybe create a misguide somewhere in there making you think something completly different to then at 1 point all of a sudden find out, it was Scarlet the whole time! But nope... they cannot seem to really think about those things, and that is why i have lost a lot of intrest in these movies, heck a lot of movies. where politics are just pushed in hard, this whole man vs woman and all that crap I do not care about. And that includes the guys that hate because it is a woman, but also the guys and woman who say: you just hate woman to be the lead, forgetting we had amazing leads in the past that MANY people loved! Strong woman that did an amazing job, but were not FAULTLESS, had their mistakes, had their "weakness" you know.. HUMAN! And again, like I said, you (filmspeak) are a part of it with your intro, trying again to push this dumb narrative.
The censorship is so bad. I tried posting on Reddit about the billions of innocent Kree civilians affected by Captain Marvel. My Reddit post was instantly blocked.
Didn't see this movie. No specific complaints, just that after Dr. Strange 2 and Thor 4, I was done. Which I think is the bigger story of The Marvels box office. How much of it is an expression of the recent MCU more than it about this actual movie. That being said, I have to say I agree and I was SO disappointed that the cameo at the end indicated that with regards to the X-Men, they were reaching back instead of forward. So discouraging.
I really didn't care for this. Marvel is really no longer special.
Growing up throughout the 90's there was such amazing animated series & movies. One's with creative practical effects & quality writing, world building, character creation, etc. Like X-Men the animated series, Spawn. Random: but Beetlejuice is a really well made movie that uses practical effects & quality creativity, passion throughout the project. It's crazy how good things were in the 90's and now we have no animated series or quality passion projects.. How did everything become so bland, stale, and piss poor quality, especially for the insane price these horrible movies somehow cost them??? Makes no sense. It's also annoying how they hire the same top actors for any movie. That voice acting as a profession is pretty much gone, as well as actual animation studios.. Something's are just so much better if done with animation.. live action just isn't the right way to do things but apparently it's all we do now..
Yeah. I couldn't keep up after Endgame. It felt like work. They had a good run but it's time to do something different. Less is more and all that jazz.
The amount of knowledge the narrator lacks is tremendous! I've never heard anybody use the phrase "I don't understand" more in such a limited time frame. I don't understand how he/she/they make it through a day.
What are u trying to say?
Now if you want a really scary supervillain, look no further than homelander. He is so epic, everyone will still know who he is in 20 years.
Love Homelander!
I know he is and I haven't watched a single episode
🙂@@trevorthornley8835
Same!@@FilmSpeak
Random tangent but this is something I've been thinking for a while regarding Fox X-men universe... what if they recut Last stand and dark phoenix together? You could have last stand happening while the characters reflect on Jean's previous Phoenix incident, reinforce the Dread some character feel and create more of an internal conflict with magneto... also replace the last stand scene where prof x meets Jean with the one from dark phoenix and delete the Juggernaut from the movie altogether.. the final product I think would be flawed, but passable.. more so than either movie was by themselves... you could even cut in a few scene from apocalypse.. basically all the bad xmen movies have usable footage that can be combined into one alright movie? Been thinking about it because of all this recent fox universe legacy talk...
It really wasn't that bad, I'd say it's better than the first Captain Marvel
Aesthetically yes, but the script is a MESS. The 1st is dull, but has stronger and more fleshed out ideas.
Agreed^ The Marvels definitely looks better but like oof that script...
I’m 1 minute in the video and I’ve already pretty much heard “it’s ok for me to dislike this movie and the one that came before it but everyone else who does is a basement dwelling woman hater”
I don't watch this guy because i find him insufferable and clueless on what makes a film good and the one time I try again he starts a video like an absolute narcissist.
I noticed people forget that Ronin got the power Stone and threatened to kill Thanos and was destroying Zander before being wrote to be distracted by dance moves
I think Ronan shouldn't be on the rails of forgettable villains. he was able to stand up to Thanos with his power stone and nearly completed his mission of wiping out xandar along with the guardians and didn't because Peter distracted him. but in his character, it was simple but effective as he was an extremist following with accordance of his species culture as he did what his forefathers had. did we ever see that get fleshed out? no, but it would be cool. the marvels could've fleshed that out and in doing so would've been a better film I would argue. and not just because that making a better movie than this would be a very low bar to pass.
can't believe somebody still believe marvel movie got bad review is because "woman bad" btw "only movie with woman lead"? did you forgot black widow, and black panther 2?
Ronan the accuser is forever engraved in my mind because of the epic danceoff with starlord.😂
I find it really weird that Carol haven't aged at all in 30 years. Is it part of her powers or were the filmmakers just incredibly lazy? And not just in this movie but also in Endgame.
That Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel promo art they used for the movie is pure cringe.
Yep. The movie miss out everything by not making a movie out of the flashback. A Captain Marvel 2 with the Annihilator plotline. Her action, consequence, guilt ,brith of Dar-Ben. Then her marriage with Prince Yan and how the planet brought softness in her. Exploring Monica and ending with Ms.Marvel swapping place with CM. Much to audience's horror as we see the biggest fangirl seeing the negative side that she never supposed to see of her beloved hero. Is what exactly it needed. Then in The Marvels, we see the conclusion. Like 2 part story. I don't know what's with Marvel Studios treating Carol as 2nd hand character. First, she gets introduced in rushed and underwhelming manner. Also ruining the Fury eye story. Then stuffed her in Endgame and now they didn't even gave her a movie which the whole The Marvels is based off!!! They really don't know what they want to do with Carol. As for Monica, I am still confused what exactly her power is . Same with her position in the team. Rodey and Tony /Bucky and Steve / Tony and Steve, worked so well bcs they all compliment eachother. They had something which the other didn't and helped us see all kinds of pov. But with Monica it's ambiguous. It never fully established wether she is side or main character. She felt like a side character forced to be main. However, nothing about her distinguish herself from Carol. Carol doesn't even need her. Furthermore her powers doesn't make her anything special bcs as again they r like Carol's.
So Capt Marvel wrecks an entire planet, Dar-Benn rises to avenge her people and dies trying. The people will never forgive Carol and will want her dead more than anything else in life. Carol is kind of a sociopath .
The movie lacks depth, nuance and good acting. You can say a movie sucks without having to qualify it so much.. good lord man..
Sure, but I have ya know actual reasons why I didn't like the film so why wouldn't I mention them?
So eloquently put man. Great work!
I mean you realize Captain Marvel is a god aweful hero, person and character right?? Here first interaction with anyone including the Avengers team for the first time is to immediately talk down to them, being ignorant and arrogant. And yes, she was outright ignorant in Endgame. She knows nothing of the situation and immediately claims she could have done better. That's not a hero I want to have on my team. So yes from the start I was like, fuck Captain Marvel, she's the type of stuck up brat that I would ignore and walk away from, and to think people want to celebrate that type of person, shows how screwed up and backwards thinking society has become. While sexism, racism etc. is stupid, its also stupid to blindly follow bad modern trends that take things too far in the opposite direction. If you truely have a neutral mentality then it doesnt matter what group somebody wants to put you in, you will speak freely on the stupidly of any side or situation. And this artificial push for diversity has been an irresponsiblely contributor to many problems today because some people were ignorant, some people were ignoring them and some people were selfish or egotistical. It's time for this crap to stop and take things back to a more rational place.
The marvels with Brie Larson is so bad that she makes Jennifer garner 2005 Elektra film better to me.
Tell us how you really feel 😀
Let's be honest. The MCU would've been better if Thanos won at the end of Endgame.
I legit was 100% satisfied after infinity wars. I loved how it ended and the darkness and grief. It was perfect
you mean infinity war
I wouldn’t call it abysmal it just drops the ball on several points unfortunately but it was genuinely funny which i can’t say for some of these recent mcu projects and if anything nothing can be worse than love and thunder.
Literally didn't even realize it was meant to be a comedy it was that unfunny.
@@coletrainhetrick I didnt realize it was a comedy going in. I only really found most of thenl act 1 stuff funny and some sparse shit throughout. Other comedic moments were a lil cringe
@@coletrainhetrick Who said it was a comedy? Plenty of movies are not comedies but have genuine laugh out loud moments.
@@d.carpenter7519 so it's a nothing burger where it's devoid of entertainment? Because I found it intensely dull the entire time, the action in particular
@@coletrainhetrick Opinions are like buttholes. Yours should not be shown. It needs wiping.
I actually thought the Marvels was quite enjoyable and fun, even if it wasn’t great. And I was expecting it to be the worst movie yet. But I think that goes to black widow (😢) or maybe de strange 2. That’s modern, I still think Incredible Hulk is the worst. Anyway, Secret Invasion was the only thing that was really bad. Even she hulk was decent, no matter how wacky it is and how much I hate it. Anyways, the Marvels was not bad, and at least in the good half for me
Black widow and she hulk are absolute 🗑️
The new x-men should have a height accurate wolverine.
Nah, they’ll be too busy trying to decide what gender wolverine should have.
Here is a free idea for Disney and marvel. Make a movie about rogue, first cut back her powers way back and focus on the idea that she has fallen in love with a guy (I know all the horror) but knows that if she touches him he will die.
Marvel fan SAMMY has shared his extreme dislike for the latest addition to the MCU, The Marvels. In a recent interview, SAMMY shared his strong feelings towards the newest Marvel film, The Marvels. He said that the movie is so bad, and that he hated it so much that it made the 2005 film Elektra seem better by comparison. SAMMY went on to say that he thinks The Marvels is the worst movie he has ever seen and that he will not be watching it again. He also added that he does not like the direction that Marvel has taken in Phase 4, saying that he thinks everything was better in the 2000s-2010s and that he will only be rewatching those movies now. This is a strong statement from a long-time Marvel fan, and we're curious to see how the studio will respond to this criticism.
This is the realest video I have seen that’s not extreme either way. You outlined all of the issues I’ve had with this movie. Which is exactly the same issues with Multiverse of Madness. I enjoy that your videos are about each individual project. You don’t try to defend the Multiverse Saga by shitting on the Infinity Saga & you don’t talk about politics. Just the plot. Like I said in the beginning. This is the realest video I have seen and it’s to see more normal people online for a change. When I say extreme I also talk about the people that go out of there way to defend it and if you hate it you are automatically assumed to go into the alt-right crowd of bigotry & women hating
Film speak let No forget in the movie the Skrull even tell Captain marvel they don’t need or want her help anymore because Carol and Fury failed them. That your movie.
YUP
First I want to say I enjoy this channel thoroughly.....my POV comes form viewing experience, politics, writer strike, misogyny and good ole racism. Not many people are going to just say this but there is a definite war against black women having strong nonsterotypical roles created by white men and women. Do a survey and some research in the last 2-3 years, opening of roles for black women in Hollywood means standing there, saying one liners and mostly being forgettable and quiet. It's done on purpose and now all the reviewers can point out how horrible or unnecessary the black woman character is. I hear and see it all the time on KZhead and review magazines. ITS ON PURPOSE. and it still feeds into the racism and fear 10,20,30 + years in film and will most likely continue because Americans and Europe are terrified of unity and that people may enjoy human evolution out of fear and hate. We see m movies to be entertained, inspired and informed but behind the scenes we still have old white men controlling the narrative and until that changes then black women in roles produced, written and edited by White men and men in general who hold the belief that black women are to be held down over other women. Black women in the superhero universes are going to be continually diminished. I was highly disappointed in the film and many women of color watching this flick agree most of us think it's on purpose to recapture "the good ole days." It seems to be working.
Oh I wish the MCU was more like the FOX X MEN
Actually the villian of the film should have been Captain Marvel. Seriously it would have been interesting pitting the three lead characters against each other and would have made the overpowered Captain Marvel chracter more interesting. It would have given the movie a Thanos level bad guy who believed that what she was doing was for the greater good. I would have actually payed to see that film.
EXACTLY. And with Kamala being her fangirl it would've been a great "Never meet your heroes" movie. Interesting dynamics as well
There are plenty things to like about this movie and I had a good time! Iman Vellani is a delight and parts of the movie were fun! However, the story/writing was poorly executed and certain parts were not fully fleshed out. The movie had potential to be something special, but fell short of those expectations. I still enjoyed the movie, but it is not the same enjoyment as I get with most Marvel movies from Phases 1-3, No Way Home, Shang-Chi, Moon Knight, Guardians Vol. 3, and both seasons of Loki!
finally someone not gaslighting themself into thinking the marvels is decent thank you film speak
The Marvels is a film with a weak script and a horrible threat. However, Thanksgiving is a fun mixture of Halloween, The Prowler, Happy Birthday to Me, Out of the Dark, Mute Witness, Scream, My Bloody Valentine and I Know What You Did Last Summer. It is a love letter to horror fans.
I think it’s funny that people agree with this. It’s nice to see more people actually saying they liked the movie after it came out digitally
I, REALLY LOVE, how Marvel is CONSTANTLY saying that Captain Marvel is THE FIRST female-led superhero movie. . . when AT THE SAME TIME, COMPLETELY FORGETTING ABOUT 2005's ELECTRA!
Ok, I really don't get the demonizing of movies as a product. These things cost millions of dollars and in the case of modern blockbusters hundreds of millions. They ARE a product and Hollywood IS a business. Would you dump that much money into something just for art? be honest with yourself.
So I guess the Black Widow movie was just a joke to you then?
Iman Vellani is the best in this she has so much energy that no one can get mad at!!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
One thing a future Disney Marvel movie really needs is much less, or none at all, swirly swirly beams of light and energy. These have been overdone to death.
Well no wonder. It's directed and written by 3 women (inclusivity is better than a good product regardless of gender these days)
They keep coming back to the Fox X-Men universe because the films that starred the original X-Men and Deadpool cast were all financial successes. Logan was even nominated for a screenplay Oscar. Marvel Studios is a business and they need to make money. The Box Office of the prequel films prove that audiences don't care about a new cast playing these characters. Making a new 616 X-Men would also feel like a rehash of the prequel films. Because you would have to revisit plot threads like the discovery of mutants, the public's reaction to them, and the formation of the X-Men. And like I said, audiences didn't care too much about that stuff the first time; why would they want to see it again? I would also like to add that these are not new versions of the characters. Shawn Levy and Kevin Feige have confirmed and suggested that these are the characters from the X-Men movies.
It's okay if you dislike something, movies are subjective. But I do think that even if any of captain marvel movies where actual beyond masterpieces of cinema with absolutly no flaws they would still receive so many hate so... I'm not surprise of that. I really enjoyed the movie, for me it was a fun ride, emotional and exciting. They finally went deep on Carol Danver's character and the dinamic between the 3 of them was the best. As always Marvel studios not letting the director have their vision it's the main issue but I'm excited to see The marvels again and maybe a couple of times more.
Hi @FilmSpeak I don’t want to rush you or anything but I was wondering if you were going to still upload your movie review video essay on the film The Creator it has been out on digital and I’m curious to hear your thoughts on it cause I always love your videos. Anyways Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁 and keep up the great work
To be honest I understand where people are coming from hating this movie. In its grand scheme yes it’s the worst, it’s very bland but when I put it a long side captain marvel I do think it fixes some of the problems with the character. But if we are talking in the grand scheme of the MCU I think they are to one ruining this characters, there is a lot to cover from one movie to the next, and what they are doing is trying to play catch up with the characters instead of giving us a progressive and more natural feel of a character development. For me I did enjoy this movie, it was fun and lighthearted and that’s what I was looking and hoping for, yes maybe the villain wasn’t great and the movie has a lot of flaws and in another universe maybe it was a better made movie but I had a good time and sometimes that’s what’s matters to me :😊
My favorite part was when she said “it’s marveling time”
I truly enjoyed the marvels. for me the story doesn't hv 2 be deep all the time. better than antman n thor.

I think that’s something pretty cool is ms Marvel action it’s something subtle with the relationship of Ms marvel and captain marvel she sees how there is a struggle with carols decisions and choices the way they left the planet and seeing people die Kamala seeing the choice she had to make and in the ship when she showed Monica past life I feels they all learn something from each other.Kamala shows carol how to express herself while also correcting her choices and showing her a different viewpoint which is pretty cool it’s showing both carol and kamal they can learn something from each other despite their experiences.
Carol Danvers is a supervillian
Yeah, honestly, I like Kamal Khan too
I honestly didn’t mind the Marvels, it may be incredibly flawed but I had a good time with it, it feels like it might be a guilty pleasure of a movie for me cause it’s just fun
yea screw actual good storylines. Just introduce random comedic aspects for a movie to be fun and a joy to watch. After all, people go to movies just to laugh and not think about the plot too much.
I think and i HOPE dp3 will end the fox xmen, but we'll just have to wait and see i suppose. Havent seen the marvels yet
I think i can sum up my opinion on this film with, did i expect more, no, did get less, somehow.
when you excuse yourself from Thanksgiving dinner to watch the new FilmSpeak video 🙃
Bless you 🙏🏻❤️🦃
I quit the MCU for the most part after LAT I haven’t seen many of the shows but they’ve all been bad so I expect nothing less from this movie
NEVER FORGET in the other phases of marvel ,there is a JUNTA than control the quality...in phase 4 FEIGE fired all that junta and ruined all
And i echo your X-Men thoughts. Its so exhausting i just want something new for the X-Men. But its just member berries. I just sighed.
I’m more disappointed by FilmSpeak than by this movie. I expected this movie to be mid, while it was quite entertaining. Yet FilmSpeak promised this video essay wouldn’t be completely negative. Or not even just bad. But Abysmal?
The battle scenes were meaningless throughout the movie. They just walked right back up. "You Got Mail" love movie had more stakes- viewers more concerned about the bookstore in trouble.
I mean its his opinion - you dont have to agree with it. Someone not liking something as much as you is disappointing? I think it might be time to reevaluate your priorities…
@@weareoriginthe battle scenes were sick in this movie tf? Some of the best action we have had in the mcu for a while. Especially anything to do with ms marvel herself.
I’m tired of MCU fans equating entertaining with good.
@@11Icazo22 the whole point of the entertainment industry is to entertain... are you dumb?
I'm so over the MCU not even strong projects do anything for me. Everyone is raving about how stellar Loki S2 is and...I just don't care. I'm so jaded on the franchise I honestly have no qualms admitting I'm biased towards the negative and probably can't give these films and shows a fair shake because of said jadedness. Though its worth noting I was feeling burned out by the MCU well before Endgame, soooo. Thank God GotG Vol. 3 was a good swan song.
We will not watch woke trash. I laugh at any critics who try say it is because the audience wants something new.....NO! We want something GOOD! NOT WOKE TRASH!
You know what else is well rounded?
Ok your suggestions are good....shame I can't throw money at it.
While i was watcbing it, i ddint rlly know if there was any plot in it and was really uninteresting
Thinking of any vids about Godzilla
Yes! Most likely Minus One but potentially that and Monarch
@@FilmSpeak let’s go!!!
