In #Morbius Matt Smith gloriously hams up the place and Oliver Wood delivers some visual flare to the action sequences.

Aside from that, the bad plotting & messy cgi, confusing editing & worse sound mix result in absolute incoherence
But the post-credits manage to out do it all pic.twitter.com/NZ878P90z4
Well #Morbius is unfortunately not great (some really shoddy vfx & 00s formulaic plot) & definitely not as fun as Venom. Really confused at the future of the Sony Spiderverse following the post-credits scenes & the editing 🤷♀️ Matt Smith is clearly having a blast though! pic.twitter.com/ZCz8aLeUL0

#Morbius, the man himself! 🧛♂️ A morbid Marvel movie of human/bat genetic-splicing and impressive visual effects to sink your teeth into. I’ll leave it at that, but Matt Smith is having a ball! pic.twitter.com/QWDqnuzOTp

#Morbius walks a fine tightrope between gothic vampire melodrama and comic book fantasy. @JaredLeto embodies Michael Morbius with a dedication no other actor could. The pacing is brisk and it features some great visual flair. @SonyPicturesUK pic.twitter.com/4wyADac9cC

Well, #Morbius is about as bad as you were expecting. A 2005 plot collides with visually confusing CGI to create a bit of a snooze fest. But don't worry, they've saved the worst for last. Featuring some of the worst post credits scenes you've EVER seen, Sony are off their rocker. pic.twitter.com/TMfVpq95Tn

Morbius is just as disjointed and boring as you expected it to be.

Clearly butchered in an edit by a studio who had no clue what they wanted to do with it - not that there's a good film trapped in there.
Mid credits are a joke but stick around if you like rolling your eyes pic.twitter.com/XxDvgYYWPF
#Morbius is the closest Marvel will come to Another Round, Michael Morbius topping himself up with human blood. It ain't great by any means. Jared Leto should have played it as Paolo instead while Matt Smith tries his best to inject some fun into proceedings. pic.twitter.com/UzCkKGmu4z

Leto is good, despite his more wacky antics as a person he is a commited performer that actually suits this role quite well.
