Adding my review from my theater watch before I rewatch it again from home.
The Marvels is super fun. Iman Vellani is everything as Kamala Khan, and she should get the same love Tom Holland gets as Spider-Man. She is the perfect person to balance out Captain Marvel's energy, like Kate does with Clint in Hawkeye. Odd Couple team balancing, with Monica covering in the middle ground.
We need some MCU connectivity, and this serves as a sequel to Captain Marvel, Wandavision, and Ms. Marvel. We are merging some storylines and moving forward. This is what we need.
It has a ton of laughs. I love the swapping-places fight scenes, I love flerkens, and I love Kamala's family. Could the villain's backstory have used a bit more depth? Sure, but I'm here for the vibes, and the vibes are excellent.
Also I cried a little behind my 3D glasses when I thought about how much young girls will love this movie. Just a few happy tears. Nothing weird.
