“Higher. Further. Faster.” is the slogan that follows all of the marketing for Captain Marvel, but what it doesn’t tell you is that it’s going to squander all the potential it has going for it in a lowly, fractionally, and slowly moving manner, dragging you through a meandering second act that takes away the appeal of the character’s strengths.

The wait is over! Ever since it was announced Jake Gyllenhaal would be playing the Spider-Man villain Mysterio in Spider-Man: Long Way From Home, fans have been clamoring to see what the character would look like in a live movie. Mysterio, with his Fish Bowl look, is one of the more campier villians in the gallery of evil in the Spider-Man Universe.
