WarnerBros seem to be touting a 4/5 from Empire (the actual review doesn't seem to have been published yet) so there's a chance it could go up to green on MC pretty soon lol. EDIT: oh and also the "ELECTRIFYING" quote from GamesRadar in the text is funny since the actual review was a 3/5.

Definitely could've been worse but there's a severe lack of enthusiasm among the more well regarded critics/publications. Nothing over 80 on MC so far (Indy 5 vibes).

Average rating at 6.3 is still the main letdown that makes it hard to see the percentage rise.

once again ticked very slightly up on MC lol

So far it's the average rating letting it down. Makes it more unclear whether it can truly pull a Guardians 3 with the percentage.

Here's a proper update

Haven't seen this number yet so it's probably the most updated.

The marketing team's praying so hard right now that they can get to slap a certified fresh on the poster.

A couple different numbers thrown around now, but this seems to be more updated than the 69% or 71%.

Veeerry nearly dug itself out of yellow on MC, 58 now with 24 reviews.

So far so mid

oh this was a press screening and loads of people couldn't show up due to public transport struggles lmao

I'm usually perfectly alright with violent styles like this, but I saw it early in the morning with barely any sleep and I'm in the middle of a nearly empty IMAX so the studio credits in the first few minutes felt like a violation lol. Major warning for anyone who may struggle with that.

Make that 89 with 22 reviews.

It's really good stuff. Love the new Spider-Men, love the various art styles, love Miles, love Gwen, and I love the themes they decided to tackle. It's exactly what the genre needs in all its reckless ventures into the multiverse and arguments about some dumb status quo. Essentially what it gets down to is what is so heroic about maintaining a status quo that involves certain people suffering? The only problem is it just ends in a "to be continued" (as we already knew since this is merely a part 1). All these character arcs and themes don't see a conclusion in this one movie, and you can tell right from the beginning that this is merely part of a larger story. The first act practically lasts over an hour, a great first act but y'know, it's almost half the movie. For long stretches I was preferring what it was doing over the first film, but it's hard to say it's better since it doesn't stand on its own legs. It's very funny, very creative, and definitely never boring, but it's not complete.

I'm seeing this in 30 minutes, it's been so long since the first film that the hype has kinda let up a bit but these reactions are getting me back on.

I haven't paid much attention to this one, is there any early word of how good/bad it may be?

It would also be the whole ass movie.

I think more people thought Crystal Skull was bad then than they do now. Many (like myself) have pretty much come around to just think it's mid/fine.

I have so far missed 2 fan screenings here, we'll see how high we can get that number until the movie is actually out lol
