A great contribution to the Marvel Archive, and in keeping with the epic proportions of recent Marvel Universe history. On the not so favorable reviews, it's in keeping with a pattern, there is the great film that is framed as such and the shallow conveyor belt nonsense reviewed as such, and then there is a grey area, films that make critics and cinema goes uneasy, and they're not sure why, so they berate. This was true of the Darren Aronofsky film the Fountain, of the Bohemian Rhapsody (song not the film) when first released, as if initially taken to be trite, when they're in actual fact, subtlety radical. Stella performances, stunning visuals, and effects, and revelatory. It gives another, more in-depth review and enhanced perspective, on the effect of receiving such intense pressure and power, as an alternative embodiment of Captain Marvel.

I thought this movie was a brave and imaginative take on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, set in a future postwar world where much has become submerged In the water. People are Looking Back to memories to find meaning. The Protagonist Nick, played by Hugh Jackman, brings people into the tank to merge with their former selves. Later he falls into the allure of the past when he meets the beautiful Mae in a revelationary encounter that transforms him. It is at once a romantic Epic journey and a commentary on the world we presently live in. People ask for something different than the cookie-cutter movies that we have grown accustomed to. Yet, when somebody Delivers a flawlessly acted, beautifully filmed, and visionary masterwork, many shy away from the brevity of such a story. I am happy to say I'm not one of them, and I believe this was a stunning and notable movie.
