We don't know the CinemaScore yet

That will also be interesting to see...  

[Darth Lehnsherr]

Yeah the early reviews aren't great but unless the trend of incoming reviews is mostly negative it'll get a positive RT.

But the thing is, a lot of the early reviews are from the "geek" movie reviewers, who are basically trained to give good reviews in exchange for access.

People acting like mixed/middling reviews are going to kill presales and refund tickets. This'll still likely be the biggest DOM release till Spider-Man.

 

What?  No one is acting like that at all?

Up to 73% RT with the help of Grace Randolph's tomato.

I think this might actually end up rotten. 

 

Anyways big lesson for Marvel. Shang-Chi remains highly acclaimed and will probably end up the best received CBM of 2021 Audience and Critics opinion combined

[Last Man Standing]

I refuse to believe this is worse than Black Widow. I have to assume this is backlash to the "MCU BP contender" talk, that gave critics very high expectaations.

What? All the earliest reviews are the trades like Deadline, THR, and big outlets like the BBC.

There were some people saying it's so under Shang-Chi now.

If Thor 2 somehow didn't get a rotten, I can't see this doing that much worse.

That’ll burn Film Twitter’s biscuits.

It's weird to think but Shang-Chi was the real underdog of Marvel. The movie is received really well by the most who watched it .

This is giving me snobby 

Also no its about 70% official publication and 30% "geek" reviews who have a hive mind and have to give good reviews always.

Feige definitely has those eyes of a real Taskmaster when things don't go his way.  😂   He puts on a brilliant PR game in public, but make no mistake, he will right the ship quickly behind the scenes, should things not go over well with this movie overall...

Totally agree with you. High expectations always lead to this.

Or just general MCU backlash because that’s the Cinema Anti-Christ at the moment and hey this is their first real opponent to take them down a peg or two?

One person. And, yes, DOM TOTAL.  That's a function of WOM/reception not pre-sales.

[ThomasNicole]

Back to 73%
