So, I just watched this. Tbh, considering all the negative comments and reviews I thought it would be way worse. I remember reading Spidey comics as a kid in the 70s, and thought Morbius was a cool villian. Here it's just a spin-off thing without Spidey. Bad idea. I had "Impala -64 with hydraulic suspension right out of 90s hiphop videos" low expectations, but it was surpsisingly not as bad as that IMHO.
Far, far from a masterpiece and there's of course lots of better MCU flicks. It has some really wooden acting e.g. from Tyrese Gibson and the other cop dude. They just felt like taken out from some cheap police TV-movie. The post credits' scenes were meh. And it's a pure waste casting an actor of Harris' caliber and not letting him do more.
Matt Smith was great fun though, and the CGI stuff wasn't as bad as expected. The action scenes were also quite ok IMHO.
I didn't like Leto's charactarization of Joker, and I thought his Wallace in BR 2049 was over the top. But I actually think he was surprisingly fine here. I guess I was expecting more goofiness and hammy acting over all.
So, far from a great movie but still some entertaining parts, and not as bad as expected. If there's a sequel, I'll check it out (can't believe I wrote that lol). But since this was a flop, chances are small?
