Search: Starring Brie Larson

The sheer predictability of the plot means it doesn't really stand up to the scrutiny of anyone older than 15.

Blends zany character comedy and squeamishly surreal grossout with some postmodern wit and knowing parody of action cliché tropes.

Directors Joe and Anthony Russo use the length to explore more than one significant theme in depth and to shift tone markedly from hour to hour.

Cap Marvel is another powerful woman hero to add to the line-up.

Brie Larson delivers a blizzard of facts, some of which will leave viewers looking at the world around them in a whole new way.

The director resembles a sniper who remains unseen, but whose presence can nonetheless be felt.

What makes this better than a smack in the face with a wet cliche is Woody Harrelson's performance

Director Destin Daniel Cretton takes it at the right pace and avoids made-to-measure emotional hooks.

Boggles the mind and stretches credibility to the outer reaches of imagination

Bright, breezy, and most importantly fun.

Ultimately the in-your-face style and confusing story stop the emotions from getting truly under your skin.

A visually inventive, genuinely moving, yet understated drama of captivity and hope, which also sings a quiet tribute to the power of creative maternal impulses.

The film’s simplicity is its strength.

For all the postmodern presentation, every emotion here ultimately rings true, and there are enough great ideas, oddball characters, amiable performances and big laughs to ensure that this remains a cult favourite.

Perfectly watchable and occasionally touching despite itself.

There will be someone, many, out there who will love it.
