    ‘Morbius’: Early Reactions To The Spider-Man Spin-Off Are Almost Unanimously Against It

    Does Morbius deserve to be left its name in the superhero canon or just fall short of audiences' expectations as a bloodthirsty disaster?

    With the growth of the universe in a number of films and television programs, it comes as no surprise that we’re witnessing the emergence of a lot of unusual and less typical heroes entering the ranks, especially when it comes to Marvel characters. Morbius, the vampiric protagonist of the film of the same name, which opens in cinemas on April 1, is just one of those new, off-kilter heroes.

    Pushed back by the pandemic for a long time, Sony’s Spider-verse — which also features Tom Hardy‘s Venom and Dakota Johnson‘s Madame Web — welcomes Jared Leto as Dr. Michael Morbius, a scientist suffering from a rare blood ailment. When he seems to discover a solution, he is overjoyed, only to discover that things have gone horribly wrong, bringing him not to perfect health, but to a new, terrifying kind of vampirism that haunts him and those he loves.

    However, what are the first responses to Morbius? Are reviewers and journalists taken aback by this unique perspective on vampires, or is Leto’s long-awaited anti-hero just another name in the huge library of superhero (and supervillain) films? Consider the following early responses to the film:

    GOOD GOD#Morbius… horrendous editing, script, and story. Leto and Smith's acting couldn't make up for poorly written characters. The CGI made me feel like I was watching Fantastic Four '05, which is a far better film. Echoing another tweet I saw, it's a "charisma vacuum" 3/10 pic.twitter.com/Tb33ZFm3Iq

    Absolutely zero rules.#Morbius had NO rules. It was like, does this look cool? Yeahhh buddy! Does it make sense? Who cares!

    I enjoyed some of it! I liked Matt Smith. He was groovy. Jared Leto is better in this than WeCrashed.

    That post credit scene was shoehorned da faq in 😂

    #Morbius is not good.

    None of the story sticks, and because of it, everything else falls apart. Questionable writing is rampant and the third act is nonsense.

    Also, the two post-credits scenes are insulting. I’m convinced that the second was literally written by a six-year-old. pic.twitter.com/zugbYCXKj1

    #Morbius is a reminder of what many comic book movies were before the MCU: sloppy, poorly executed, and sure to disappoint fans of the comics. It also contains the worst attempt at universe building in the modern era. Full review later tonight but…it’s bad. pic.twitter.com/lng4YWH5Gg

    #Morbius is the worst Marvel superhero movie in a long, long time. Mostly inert, sometimes laughable. And the scene where someone tries to summon a cat by shaking their litter box, only to assume the cat is gone when that doesn't work, is the weirdest thing I've seen in years. pic.twitter.com/tNHmN63Ug3

    I wasn't expecting much from #Morbius but I'm down with this Man Bat. Lacing vamp with camp, Leto coats himself in the titular lead while Matt Smith sinks his teeth into Milo. It's not big on subtlety. There's stuff coursing through these veins you'll either drink up or spit out. pic.twitter.com/2A9V3VG2ed
