The initial reactions of the fans to the film were not exactly glowing However, as you’ll see below, the overall view is that this movie was disappointing despite a few glimpses of potential.
“The choice to present his vampire aspect to life with only digital VFX results in it appearing fake and unlikable. It’s like Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s vampires in style, which is a part of the whole 90s vibe.
“Perhaps the most frustrating thing about Morbiusis its fact it is insignificant. It’s sole purpose is to introduce this character within the Sony Spider-Man world and leaves viewers without a reason to see any future episodes.”

The Times
“The filmic version of Murphy’s law is illustrated by this pathetic superhero sleeper. The film is devoid of drama jeopardy, originality coherent narrative, captivating characters, or even a single slightly human-like performance. “
The AV Club
“If it’s not as if he’s winging the same way as Tom Hardy is in the Venom franchise, Leto thankfully doesn’t seem to be taking himself too seriously in order to stop some enjoyment from creeping into the movie. The story of his character is far too clear unpredictably predictable and incredibly impatient in its final moments for the audience to be concerned about whether the superhero emerges or succumbs to the disease.”
