UK Fan screening reactions are in for Morbius

A fan screening has taken place at Odeon Leciester Square cinema in London, for Morbius today, at 7pm (March 24).

The movie is being raked for it’s CGI and messy plot as a ‘2005 plot collides with visually confusing CGI’. There is high praise for Matt Smith’s performance: ‘Matt Smith gloriously hams up the place’. Nicola Austin mentions that she is ‘very confused at the future of the Sony Spider-Verse following the post-credits scenes’.

Neil Vagg has high praise for Jared Leto’s role mentioning that Leto ’embodies Michael Morbius with a dedication no other actor could’.

There has been information from press screenings earlier this month about scenes being deleted and Michael Keaton only being in post-credits.

See the full reactions below:

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

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

#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

#Morbius proves that no matter how many famous faces or shiny visuals you squeeze in, Sony will always find a way to impressively misunderstand basic storytelling pic.twitter.com/Jxf8bPzi57

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
