A fascinating look at why the Sony Spider-Man cinematic universe is an inherently flawed idea. What's this supposed to do? Why would anyone care? Maybe if these films would actually make their characters the villains they are supposed to be it could be a bit more entertaining, but making them into anti-heroes doesn't make sense. This movie is boring.

There is a reason so many memes exist making fun of Morbius, and the memes are honestly more entertaining to me than the movie itself. The writing was just not great, I didn't feel connected to any of the characters, and by the end, I didn't really care what the outcome of the story was going to be, I just wanted the movie to end.

Morbius was a film many people wrote off from the moment it was announced, and sure enough, the finished product is a bland and nonsensical film with a story that fails as both a monster story and a superhero story, does nothing to endear the audience to anyone in the cast, and needlessly causes problems with the MCU for future Sony-based projects that are bound to be just as bad, if not worse. Despite the massive meme culture surrounding Morbius, it's not even worth watching in a "so bad, it's good" ironic way; it's simply a waste of time from start to finish.

Hot take: Madame Web is the better bad movie. This has so many long, dark scenes where nothing happens, and nothing even comes close to the level of "He was with my mother while she was studying spiders in the Amazon." Someone once said Matt Smith's career is like he wished on a monkey's paw, and I feel that with this movie (he got to be in a Terminator movie, and it sucked; he got to be in a Marvel movie, but it's this one, etc).

I’m hoping for a part 2
