Movie serials were written for youngsters but, as screenwriter Barry Shipman observed, this was not a putdown: “No, it’s for the 12-year-old in all of us.” Republic did them best, and “Adventures of Captain Marvel” is one of Republic’s best (some say THE best) . The flying superhero is based on a 1940s to 1950s amusing book character, who went out of business after being sued by DC, the publishers of Superman, as a ripoff (in more unusual years, he has been acquired and revived by DC; go figure) . DC had a chance to have Superman serialized at Republic, but passed (the script was revised to become “The Mysterious Dr. Satan” with a non-super hero) ; Superman serials later came from Columbia with cartoon flying sequences. When the promoters of the Chris Reeve/Superman movie said it would be the first time audiences would fill a man could sail, they obviously hadn’t seen the Captain Marvel serial.
Definitely the finest of the old-time movie serials, and the finest live action version of Captain Marvel. This movie was voted by Wizard magazine as the best comics-to-movie adaptation ever.
It has decent special effects and a shapely record. A classic desert adventure, including furious horde, offended god, and stalwart hero. The flying sequences are well done. The cliff hangers are appropriately dramatic. The Scorpion is a nice serial villain, complete with hooded face and ultimate weapon, and Captain Marvel remains my current hero.
If you like serials or Captain Marvel you really can’t go contemptible with this.
