On top of Goose getting several mentions in the early reactions (but of course) and the praise for Ben Mendelsohn, there's also good news on the rest of the supporting cast and crucially how they interact with Captain Marvel and each other.

Several reactions reserve special praise for Lashana Lynch, who plays Danvers' fellow pilot Maria Rambeau (herself an earlier version of Captain Marvel in the comics) and also suggest that it will be good to see more of her...

Danvers' relationship with Nick Fury, which was also a big feature of the final trailer in particular, also attracts positive appreciation, which is great considering how centrally that is positioned in the marketing:

So far, nobody's really said much about Phil Coulson, but let's just hope she's so solid and dependable that praise is just redundant at this stage?
