You can see there are things that could/should work, that you might like, like Milo/Matt Smith, but just don't really even for the love of trying. I like the actor, I like the idea of that character, but just nothing gets any real time to breathe, progress, and its all suffocated in the crib by the editing.
It's Leto being Leto in the worst possible way. Like you took all his shit performances and distilled them down into pure Leto shit.
The effects are terrible - in concept as well as actual execution - and it's more than just distracting, it's unforgivably bad. The rest of it just seems derivative and uninteresting.
The most telling thing is he's on a ship, (strangely not named the Demeter), working on his cure, (some bullshit about international waters, which, okay fine, that could work), but it's all for naught. He might as well be anywhere. I thought of it when I saw just the trailer for that movie 'The Last Voyage of the Demeter', and how that was an interesting idea. Hell, just the opening scene from the fricking Langella movie was the breasts compared to anything that happened in Morbius:
Its on-par with early 2000s superhero movies like Daredevil (2003). The main character is dark and angsty, but the villain looks like he's having the time of his life in every scene he's in. If that sounds fun to you, then go for it.
Yes.
It's not the worst film ever made. I'd even rate it better than Captain Marvel or the last Shazam film. But it's a weak film.
Predictable, generic, sloppy
Morbius is like "emoji movie" where everyone said it was awful before it came out and then just spent the entire review making snippy little jokes about.
In reality both films are mediocre and about the average level for the genre.
Morbius isn't any worse than the average MCU movie and Emoji movie is about the same as every Dreamworks / modern Pixar film.
It's pretty bad, yeah. Calling it "the worst movie ever" is obviously hyperbole, it's just bad.
Leto's performance is terrible and his only defense is his character is uninteresting. The special effects are competent enough.
Truth be told, I don't remember much of the movie. Maybe this is my wet brain in action, but I think it's just because the movie is forgettable. A bad movie that's less forgettable would be The Snowman. That movie sucks but at least it's got you wondering just what the frick happened behind the scenes to make Harry Hole's (real nice) story so shitty.
You'll be bored with Morbius. You won't be bored with The Snowman.
I think the reason a lot of people are saying its not as bad as people say, is it's primarily 'not good' in a boring way. But to me that does not equal 'mid' or 'mediocre' or some shit like that. Because on top of that, it's actually 'bad' in myriad ways.
'Is it as bad as 'people' say?' Depends on what people you listen to, but gays who jump on the bandwagon of hating it for 'groupthink' reasons, yeah, hard for anything to be that irredeemable. Which is why people are going to tell you it's 'not THAT bad' and have an inflated opinion of it in comparison. It's like saying, "Is Donald Trump as bad as people say?", when you have a bunch of politically-motivated morons running around saying he's literally Hitler. Like him or not, that's obviously just horseshit.
There are things in it you can find to like if you squint hard enough, but thinking they actually happen within the film to any degree that outweighs the bad is a little delusional. At the end of the day, it's boring, and bad beyond mere mediocre.
Any given scene from the movie itself is Exhibit A evidence it's bad. I challenge anyone to watch any part of this film and actually get interested enough to watch the entire thing. It's just not physically possible.
The action doesn't carry it:
The character interaction doesn't:
Neither does whatever the frick this is:
Morb and Milo interaction should have been Shakespearean level tragic, but it doesn't even have a pulse. Putting all these crap scenes together and watching the whole thing doesn't help matters, it just makes all the obvious problems worse.
Well at different parts of the movie he goes through different levels of morb, but the morbiest morb is when he says IT'S MORBIN TIME and then morbs out. Other morbs are significantly less morby, which makes the most of the movie somewhat unmorb'd overall. Probably why people didn't like it due to insufficient levels of morb. Definitely could have used more morb.
You'd be upset if you paid to see it, doubly so if you went out to see it, even more so if you were any kind of Spider-man Morbius fan. if you're watching it for free, it's not the worst thing you've ever done with your time. There are some pretty cool scenes but they would have been good in any movie.
Of course, not only is it capeshit but its a pg13 vampire movie that can't even show a vampire drinking blood from a plastic bag nevermind someones neck.
It's just mediocre. The funny stuff came from all the delays, Sony using Spider-bait on the trailers and the movie flopping twice.
Venom 2 is way worse.
So a normal Marvel movie, ok
Not bad, just kinda whatever
Yeah it's kind of bad.
Black folk be like: WE WUZ KANGZ
also Black folk: WE WUZ SLAVEZ N SHIEET PLS GIB ME RAPARASHUN MASSA
Frick Black folk. Fricking untermensch homosexuals
I couldn't believe my eyes when Morbius said that. They really wanted to hammer how different the good doctor acted when he morbed out.
It was just method acting.
It's mid
Didnt deserve much hate tho. It's no way worst than the shit mcu and dc are releasing these days
No it's literally bad.

Yeah it has a very pre-MCU 2000s capeshit energy. It's like it goes for the tone of Daredevil 2003 but is hampered by its shitty editing and effects.
it wasn't as bad as people say
Yes.
It's not the worst film ever made. I'd even rate it better than Captain Marvel or the last Shazam film. But it's a weak film.

Damn brutal man
reddit says its bad, therefore its actually schlock kino
It's entirely unremarkable. Not even so bad it's funny, just bad and boring. Like a perfect 4/10.

It's a below average experience throughout. A solid 5.5. It doesn't wow and it's largely a waste of actors for out of universe meme crap.
Any given scene from the movie itself is Exhibit A evidence it's bad. I challenge anyone to watch any part of this film and actually get interested enough to watch the entire thing. It's just not physically possible.

I like the part where he says IT'S MORBIN TIME and he starts morbin out

Can't believe you missed out on the 24/7 twitch streams of this movie where the chat will spam "Have sex" everytime this scene is playing

I pirated it and was still disappointed. The only funny scene was Matt Smith dancing.
I thought the echo location stuff was cool.
i tried to watch it twice already and have not finish it
i even forgot wtf i watched except it was boring and very few action scenes
Anyone else here #MadAtMorb?
Of course, not only is it capeshit but its a pg13 vampire movie that can't even show a vampire drinking blood from a plastic bag nevermind someones neck.
Truly a pointless effort on every level.
I knew it was gonna be shit but the fact that he never says "its morbing time" was unforgivable to me
