Captain America: Brave New World • Rotten Tomatoes & Metacritic

Unfortunate but not surprising. Again, I’m not expecting any results from Marvel’s 2023 wake-up call until Fantastic Four.
What about Daredevil?

I know it's not a film, but chances are it will be well-received.

Didn't that go through troubled development/major reshoots as well? At this time, its hard to be optimistic when it comes to Marvel Studios.

Fantastic Four and hopefully Daredevil, but I don't see many signs of Matt's Catholicism/faith being addressed in the new series based on the interviews I've read with creators.

So possibly that's a miss as well.

The studio is a punchline at this point, lets be honest.
 
I think Daredevil Reborn will be safe from the critics. TV critics from my observation are usually less critical compare to film critics. A lot of them don't review each episode. The worst RT rating for a MCU show is Secret Invasion (53%). I doubt Daredevil would go as low as that one.

Pre-Disney+ shows - Inhumans, Iron Fist and Helstrom also got a bad rating but they aren't really seen as MCU canon.

See, per the new showrunner, that kind of stuff is navel gazing.
 
Oof. This score is rough. Shame because I'm pulling for Sam as Cap.

I don’t think it really affects him leading the Avengers at this point but, box office dependent, might put a kibosh on Captain America 5 (aka Captain America: Brave New World 2).

Which is a shame in and of itself

The Lesson should be "make a good movie by having a good (finished!) script and a director with vision" not "Falcon Cap can't sell tickets"

That would still depend on the box office results.

But Marvel Studios is better off with other projects imo even if this performs okay at the box office. Sam Wilson isn't an interesting character to begin with, based from his appearances in the previous mcu movies and his Disney+ show. I think doing a Captain America movie without Steve Rogers was a bad idea in the first place, and of course they developed this movie during their Disney+ era and this becomes another critical failure.

It definitely shouldn't affect the Avengers movies.

Such reactionary decisions would mean that Marvel hasn't learnt anything from this.

Marvel really needs to be more thoughtful about having a script ready and the right filmmaker attached before going into production , going forward.
 
It just seemed like Marvel didn't put a lot of thought into Sam actually being Captain America beyond "it will be really emotional to see Steve hand him the shield at the end of Endgame". They never figured out anything else beyond that.

It doesn't help that I think the Sam Wilson character, and Anthony Mackie himself, are just better as supporting actors/characters than they are as leads. IMO.
 
Doomsday and Secret Wars are both going to have like 30 to 50 characters anyway. We know, those movies aren't going to be exactly an "Avengers" movie like the Avengers 2012/Age of Ultron. Its going to be Marvel All-Stars. Fantastic 4 are already reported to be played a huge part in it and they aren't even in the Avengers yet.

I actually think that Mackie and Sam could've worked perfectly as the new Captain America , especially because of how different he is, personality wis.e

But he just isn't supported by the movie surrounding him.

The magic spell that Marvel Studios has had over audiences have vanished. People are no longer entertained just by the concept of a cinematic universe, cross pollination and a continuing storyline, which would make them forgive even lesser installments.

It's been a successful experiment, but Feige has run out of the "get out of prison for free" card by now.

People now need a hook and a good reason to see each new Marvel movie.

That's how I see it.

I think its just a lack of vision. Also another thing that bugs me this feels like a Disney+ show that somehow got a theaterical release.

When I watch the trailer for this and Thunderbolts, it feels like they broke the partnership of Falcon/Winter Soldier, gave them their separate Disney+ shows instead of season 2 (because Disney+ needs more content), but Disney upgraded them as movies similar to Armor Wars. And we are here. If its not for the lack of interest/excitement, its the reviews that are terrible. I don't expect Thunderbolts to do as bad as this one but that one looks like a hard sell. And I don't like how these two movies are coming out just months before the Fantastic 4 reboot. Fantastic 4 still have the sting from the previous f4 movies so it needs all the help it can get.
 
There won’t be a Cap 5 at least until the MCU is rebooted and that would be Cap 1 with a different actor perhaps 10 years from now. The character may show up here and there but not a movie under his name. Marvel still has many other possible characters than a follow up to a movie that tanked critically and commercially, it wouldn’t be greenlit by the decision makers at top level and Feige’s power to pull strings, I think, is long gone.
 
There shouldn't have been a Captain America 4 movie without Steve Rogers, especially after seeing the early reception for this.

This is technically CA4, but its also Sam Wilson movie #1. Its going to be a 1 off like Eternals. At least with the Incredible Hulk/Black Widow, there's an understandable/good excuse why they haven't received another solo movie.

It looks like it is now stabilizing in the low 50s. But there should be at least 150 reviews more.

2021, 2023, 2025 - years in which Marvel Studios have a rotten film.
 
Having Chris Evans return as Cap at this point would be incredibly problematic. You can't put the genie back in the bottle in this case. You have to try and salvage it somehow.

I think if we do see an Evans return it will be like as alternate Secret Invasion Cap in Secret Wars. And it will be Sam having to face his predecessor but now as the antithesis of everything Steve used to stand against. I'm not saying that's the correct move, but that's the way I think they will go.
