| Terrific Triad of Tremendous Temerity |
Please forgive my waxing alliteratively at the outset of my movie notes for Marvels. I'll stop for now. But I can easily say the film earns my praise for its themes of collaboration, inclusivity and creative, well-placed levity.
And I also loved Goose, the non-cat, who was quite the scene stealer. I found it easy to suspend disbelief and snarky criticism to just enjoy the ride. It strove for emotional connections, reconciliation and restoration. These are not popular goals these days. I believe Marvels will stand the test of time and become a classic.

| Marvel's Three Muses |
Reports on ticket sales are a bit lackluster for Marvels. However it still was in the top spot for its opening day.
I agree with social media posts like this one:
Saw The Marvels today. Really enjoyed it. Self-contained, not too long, neither silly nor overly serious. A good old-fashioned Sci-Fi superhero flick that felt like a Marvel Two-In-One Annual from the early 80’s. 4/5 stars. #TheMarvels pic.twitter.com/bbaI5uWcZX
