Captain Marvel Trailer Review: 9 Ups & 2 Downs

8. The Effects Look Great

Given Marvel's powers, it was always inevitable that we'd see a lot of effects work in here and it looks like the studio are using all of their financial might and technical prowess to make sure it's all very glossy.

There's no hint of the CGI rag-doll effect even the likes of Black Panther was a victim of in its first trailer and there's nothing here that suggests that the trailer has been pushed out unfinished in that department. It even feels like the effects will be held back for a sort of investiagtive road movie that sees Marvel hunting her alien enemy and only going big on her powers in the final act.

On top of that, what little action we've got in there looks pretty great. But it's very much only designed to show how much of a big deal Marvel is at this stage so there's not a huge amount of detail just yet.
