Review of The Marvels: Brie Larson stars in a brief, unsettling movie about crossovers, girls, and cats.

The much-anticipated film “The Marvels,” starring Academy Award-winning actress Brie Larson, has hit the screens, leaving audiences intrigued and somewhat perplexed. The movie, known for its enigmatic plot and unique combination of elements, takes viewers on a brief yet captivating ride through the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Brie Larson reprises her role as Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, in this unconventional installment that delves into the complexities of crossovers, the strength of female characters, and the unexpected inclusion of a feline companion. The film has already sparked conversations for its departure from the traditional Marvel formula, presenting a more experimental narrative.

The movie opens with Larson’s Captain Marvel navigating through a series of multiverse anomalies, setting the stage for a story that blurs the lines between different realities. As the film progresses, it becomes evident that “The Marvels” is not your typical superhero blockbuster. Instead, it explores the nuanced relationships between female characters and introduces unexpected twists that challenge the audience’s expectations.

One of the standout aspects of the film is Larson’s stellar performance, anchoring the narrative with her charisma and strength. The chemistry between the female characters, including Monica Rambeau (played by Teyonah Parris) and Kamala Khan (played by Iman Vellani), adds depth to the storyline, showcasing the power of collaboration and unity among women in the superhero realm.

However, “The Marvels” takes an intriguing turn with the introduction of a mysterious cat character, leaving audiences both amused and bewildered. The feline companion becomes a symbolic element in the narrative, contributing to the film’s overall sense of unpredictability.

The brevity of the movie, clocking in at just over two hours, has left some viewers yearning for more, while others appreciate the concise storytelling that sets it apart from the sprawling epics typically associated with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In conclusion, “The Marvels” offers a refreshing departure from the superhero norm, with Brie Larson’s compelling performance and an unusual blend of themes. While the brevity and unorthodox storytelling may leave some audiences questioning, the film undeniably adds a new layer of complexity to the Marvel universe. As discussions about crossovers, female empowerment, and the significance of feline companions continue, “The Marvels” stands as a bold and thought-provoking addition to the superhero genre.

“I went very dark for reasons I’d rather not explain, but I didn’t have a lot of light and life within me,” Jolie revealed, adding, “Your light’s dim,” as per E! News.

The actor, who is known for her work both on-screen and in humanitarian efforts, further explained that during this period, she “also just needed to be home more,” which limited her ability to take on long-term projects.

Jolie, who shares six children with ex-husband Brad Pitt, spoke candidly about the practical and emotional factors that influenced her choices during that time. “The choice of what to work on and when was not a creative choice, often, the last few years, but sometimes the practical choice,” she said, reflecting on the challenges of balancing personal and professional demands.

These years of turbulence had a profound impact on the actress, who described Maria as a turning point in her journey toward healing. “Maria was the beginning of starting to come alive again,” Jolie shared, adding, “I needed a lot of kind people around me to hold my hand.”

While her focus on family and personal recovery kept Jolie away from acting, she remained involved in other creative projects. In recent years, she co-produced the Broadway musical The Outsiders, which premiered in April 2024 and directed the war drama Without Blood, which was well-received at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival.

In addition to her own journey, Jolie has seen several of her children follow in her footsteps within the entertainment industry.

Her daughter Vivienne worked as her assistant on The Outsiders production, while sons Maddox and Pax were production assistants for Maria.
