Captain Marvel was a pile of wank and it's not because of the first female lead, but because it was patronising with the woman empowerment. It got the hate that Wonder Woman 1 didn't get because the latter was better crafted whereas the former was just playing overtly on the feminism way too much. Almost every scene Marvel comes in has to have a "women are better than men" undertone, not a "women are equal" one. I will still remember that scene in Endgame where Spiderman dodges all the bad guys with Thanos' glove and she looks down on him with a petty "hey peter parker, got something for me" like he was some pussy bitch delivery boy
. This is before they go out with an all female battle scene, which was just a bit obviously trying to promote women.
The hate Captain Marvel gets is not because she's a woman. Not at all. It's that the whole narrative about female power dictated every scene she was in and movie goers found that extremely patronising.
Black Panther I thought was a solid film, and it gets a fair reflection on imdb at 7.3. The issue here is that Spiderman is overhyped on it's rating because of the nostalgia and the bandwagon elements of it. As a film it's enjoyable enough, probably a solid 7. But anything above 8 let alone 9? Get outta here!
The beauty of cinema is that everyone can have their own opinion - for example yours that Spiderman is one of the best MCU movies is fair enough. For me it's behind Thor 3 and both Guardians as a minimum. But I think there is a huge fear of missing out on the hype factor with this one. All over twitter there are funny memes and videos of people dressing up as Spiderman and that creates the positive energy around the movie. The Tom Holland and Zendeya chemistry off the movie is also a factor that a lot of people buy into, and then seeing old villans that they identified with as kids among other throwbacks, all of these have little to do with the movie itself.
