Morbius

I expected Howard the duck such was the hate for this movie. Instead I got a short, dark sometimes quite violent slice of entertainment. Not the usual overcomplicated. Overlong marvel stuff that all end up being the same. Matt Smith and Jared Leno gave excellent performances and the special effects for a medium budget movie were very different but still very good. It's a simple origins story and to me I think Jared Leno may be the cause of bad reviews..maybe because he wasn't the Joker of choice and that's a problem for some people. But reviews suggesting this is some kind of disaster turkey are absolutely wrong.

Morbius is an interesting choice of a character to add to the MCU or Sony Spider-Man Universe, especially to have a stand-alone movie. Unlike Venom, which has more recognition in general audience.

This is not a bad movie. Mediocre at its best. Fun action sequences, good atmosphere for its genre and characters, but again, it's very... basic.

The conflict is very predictable and overused. Somehow the runtime is too long for what the storyline trying to tell, with that being said, weirdly some moments still felt rushed.

No actual character development, no memorable hero moments. The cinematography is done well, Jared Leto's acting is great, I just hope it was written better, both the dialogue and storyline.

But then again, with Morbius has a possible appearance in future Marvel Movie, especially in MCU, I'm still intrigued and excited.

This is not your favourite huge budget Marvel movie like No Way Home, this is a introductory film of a somewhat niche character and if you compare any comic film to something like No Way Home it will fall flat. I went into this with an open mind and I had an enjoyable time. It's a different type of Marvel film with dark humour and I enjoyed myself while watching it. I am familiar with the character and have read the comics and I was not disappointed with what Leto and Smith respectively brought to their roles. I think if you are able to enjoy a film without nitpicking at it then you'll have fun with this.

Maybe I'm easily pleased but I enjoyed Morbius, it's not the best Marvel film out there but still very watchable and I never got bored at any time. Don't go in expecting an Oscar winner film, it's just a good action film. It definitely doesn't warrant some of the terrible reviews, everyone thinks they are filmmakers these days.

Solid 6. Will be better if they make Rated R but not bad, leto was good.
