Marvel Rising: Secret Warriors

I am most certainly biased, coming from the excellent Ms Marvel and Squirrel Girl comics. But I found an interesting movie about passioned heroes wanting to do their best. Sometimes I don't need more than that. With all the universe ending drama llamas going on, sometimes I just want to see a Squirrel, a Girl and a Squirrel girl do some awesome heroics and inspire a team of new heroes. This movie is not that well animated though so if that will bother you just count my rating a couple of steps lower. I tolerate more in a movie that makes me feel good afterwards.

The new miniseries and movie and miniseries is interesting enough to actually make itself worth watching. The characters have their own personality, own goals and their interactions sem pretty entertaining. None theless, the animation is worst than in the miniseries and the writing is very rushed. The concept will get future works or specials, and i intend to watch to find out if they will exploit the potential of all this characters., and the universe.

Like if it was just about Squirrel Girl and Ms Marvel it would've been great. Seems like all of the male characters lacked character or dimension. The confrontation that happens in the story feels like it's written by a couple of teenagers with no veteran experience. But beginning was great!

When I first saw the promo for this film airing on the Disney Channel, I was excited. It seemed to have a fresh perspective on the young heroes trope, and overall looked decent. I watched this film recently on Disney XD and from what I've seen, it was quite underwhelming. The story, tone, and pacing weren't too bad, the show kind of looks fine, and the overall feel is somewhat refreshing. The problem? The characters are a bit dull and leave little impact and the story of a young team fighting for justice just feels rehashed and done before. It's almost like Disney/Marvel's take on Teen Titans or Young Justice, but not in a refreshing, unique way, more like in a paint-by-the-numbers, rehash, seen-there-been-there kind of way. While I don't think this film is the absolute worst nor amongst the worst of Marvel, it certainly wasn't one I liked. I wanted to like this movie, but all the way I felt myself yawning and pretty disappointed. I wanted to see more of Spider Gwen like how we did in Marvel Rising: Initiation, a predecessor to this film. However, this film isn't the best, but it isn't completely terrible, it's just a rehashed, average film that's been done before and in better ways. I really wanted to like this one, but by trying to be too much at once, and not adding its own spin on a trope that's been done so many times before, it becomes a below-average experience to watch. I do applaud the team for changing up the art style a bit and giving us something to work with, however, it still gets a score of 5.6/10 (average). It looks like a promising Marvel film, but turns out to be yet another average TV film from Disney and Marvel Entertainment.

I believe you can do better than this Disney/Marvel. I still have faith in you.

The movie is fun, charming and silly but it's weakn is just introducing a handful of characters in an 80 minute movie. It would've been a lot better as a TV show than a full length movie. But nonetheless, I enjoyed a lot.
