From Blu-ray.com:
“Keeping up with serial standards, ‘Adventures of Captain Marvel’ arranges all sorts of cliffhangers to keep audiences interested in the seemingly doomed fates of the characters. There’s a bridge explosion, a mined car, melted rockslides, a volcano, and, my personal favorite, a special electrified hallway that stuns the victim before rolling them underneath a large guillotine. The fun factor of the serial is learning just how Captain Marvel is going to survive disaster or prevent others from perishing, often doing so with last-minute ferocity.
12 chapters is a long time to spend with ‘Adventures of Captain Marvel,’ at least from a narrative perspective, as there’s not much dramatic meat on these bones. However, as an example of early comic book-inspired imagination and adaptation, there’s plenty to enjoy about the production, which finds interesting ways to translate impossible feats of power and flight, creating a cinematic space where exaggerated heroism is allowed to come alive for fans and newcomers.”
Shazam! Say it with me… “SHAZAM!” Nah. Still not a satisfying substitute for a good ol’ hard consonant filled cuss word.
