"Captain Marvel" and "Ms. Marvel" were hounded by negative reviews at the time of their release, with the former getting a 45% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, although the film scored much better with critics. Brie Larson, who starred as Captain Marvel in the 2019 film, caught flak for some controversial comments she made on the Marvel press tour that were perceived as sexist toward men.
