Not a 45 on MC

[StephenNYMonster]

This is just going to give people more reasons not to watch this film. I'm not ready for part two of the lashings that are about to come; Box Office.

[maurixrosup]

I don't get it. The reviews that I read on Twitter were positive where are these negative critics coming from?

[Liafen]

I just fail to believe this. Fox was VERY confident with this release. There's no other reason for them to lift the embargo 18 DAYS before it's release. Either they're blind, or the huge superhero-overexposure taken it's toll or Disney paid the critics. I... I can't believe this.

Isn't one of the worst reviews from Forbes? Oh God let me leave this thread, again. I'm not ready for the next lashings from critics and a possible box office underperformance.

[Liafen]

Rusty's screening should be over by now. I'm hoping for his unbiased FAN review to be good or otherwise there isn't much hope.

Oh, please for ****s sake, by Variety: "Bryan Singer's fourth "X-Men" film disappoints with too many characters and an over-reliance on visual effects" Isn't that MCU?

As much as I'd like to agree, critics are usually right. They were with X3 and Wolverine: Origins. And this could be disastrous for a movie, they lifted the embargo too early so it will affect it's box office and the brand's image.

Damn, I was so sure of the critical acclaim. Let's hope the rest aren't bad and I will enjoy it

See also Batman v. Superman, which was savaged by critics ... and was a terrible movie.

The double standards... Smh
But there's literally no reason for them to tear it apart if the quality is good. They raved about DOFP, rightfully so. They don't hate the franchise, nor Fox-Marvel against Disney-Marvel. I just don't get it.

The MCU usually does a pretty good job of giving each one their "moment" though, as evidenced by Civil War. This one just looks like a random hodge-podge of mutants vying for the audience's attention.

It also doesn't look like my girl Betsy Braddock (Psylocke) gets much independent screen time besides her skirmish with Beast, which she better not lose.

The critics completely bashed BvS. While not great it didn't deserve the score it got.

Marvel is really doing something because lord knows Civil War was overhyped. They want their rightd back.

[Johnny Cash]

I don't want this to have lower ratings than Batman v Superman, I just can't handle that

And with that, I'm just going to have to save my money. I literally spent money on BvS and it ended up being me paying to take a nap in a theater sit. And with the way the movie is being described in this non-spoiler review from Collider, I may as well not go see it.

Hopefully Rusty comes in with a better picture of the movie, but Paylocke only serving two lines in this 2 hour and 27 minute movie? Someone goose is ****ing cooked come June.

The fact that less than half day ago we were waiting for them critics to be slain but they completely shattered our expectations

22 reviews in, 38%. This isn't getting significantly better. This is my last post for today, lemme log off and cry.

DOFP is such a hard act to follow. Some critics deemed it Oscar worth when it was released. Lot of the critics are comparing it to the previous film but still calling it positive. I'm still pumped!!

[fridayteenage]

well, at least Queen Sansa can't be blamed as the marketing hasn't made her very prominent.

King of quality Marvel Cinematic Universe always wins.
