Maybe it’s time to give this female-led superhero movie another chance.
WhileThe Marvelsis by no means a masterpiece, its nevertheless better than most people give it credit for.
Kamala Khan
Even I, who had never seenMs.
Walt Disney
Marvel, could immediately appreciate the exuberant fangirl charm of Iman Vellani, who plays Kamala Khan inThe Marvels.
Its short
Are you in the Wickedwas 30 minutes too long camp?
ThenThe Marvelsis perfect for you.
Its a perfect opportunity for controlled chaos and Brie Larsons stoically annoyed face.
Its the kind of absurdity you crave from a movie about intergalactic criminal vendettas.
Shes not bad, though, Shes not Gorr inLove and Thunder.
That is to say, shes not boring and tonally discordant with the rest of the movie.
Honestly, do you remember the villain ofThor: The Dark WorldorEternalseither?
I didnt think so.
Does the MCU even have someone in charge of keeping track of those?
Or do MCU writers literally just make post-credits scenes for fun and then forget them?
I say all this because it isnt guaranteed that every possibility teased by the end ofThe Marvelswill ever happen.
That said, the possibilities thatareteased are very fun: Kamala Khan comes off as assembling the Young Avengers.
In any case, its not too late to revisitThe Marvelsand realize how very not-bad it is.
