What critics write about "Morbius" with Jared Leto
Miscellaneous / / April 22, 2022
April 1 will be the international premiere of "Morbius” - a new Marvel movie about a man who tried to cure himself of a rare disease, and ended up turning into a vampire. Jared Leto ("Mr. Nobody", "Dallas Buyers Club") played the main role, while the antagonist was played by Matt Smith, known from the series "Doctor Who".
Foreign film critics have already shared their opinion about the film, and it turned out to be not the most flattering: at the time of publication, the rating on Metacritic is 37 out of 100, "Freshness" on Rotten Tomatoes - total 20% based on 76 reviews. Here is what they write:
1. "Morbius is unimpressive; it squandered its potential instead of becoming an intriguing horror/superhero movie hybrid." — IGN
2. “Compelling characters are the lifeblood of a good superhero story. It's tragic that a film about two feuding MCU vampires is completely devoid of them." — time out
3. "This is an amazingly pointless and stupid movie: the relationship of a good hero and a bad boy between Morbius and Milo confused and nullified by a not-so-convincing display of a moral dilemma within Morbius himself. Both Leto and Smith constantly make angry facial expressions and growl, which looks ridiculous and funny. Let's hope the universe of the Spider-Man movies expands enough to include something more interesting than this." —
The Guardian4. “Morbius himself may survive, but this supervillain's origin story is completely stillborn. This is a mechanical, lifeless and cynical attempt to expand Sony's spidery multiverse." — total film
5. "Probably the PG-13 rating played a cruel trick on the film, because of which the potentially good horror elements did not work, and we ended up with a completely toothless vampire film." — Richard Crouse
Morbius will premiere on April 1, but Disney and Sony are temporarily stopped rental of new products in Russia. Whether the film will be released digitally is still unknown.
