Black Adam has been facing a hard time with critics ever since its release. While the film has done very well in box office collection, critics are not very much impressed with the film. The film had a 55% prior to its release and since its release, the score has fallen down to 39%. However, the film still has a high score from the audience. Black Adam has a 90% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Fans have called out the website for not being authentic with film reviews as there are many films that have ratings, they do not deserve at all.
Black Adam was released last week and has received a positive response from the audience. While fans are loving the film, critics have taken a different approach to review the film. And fans are not happy as no one is calling out these reviewers for review bombing or being racist towards the film.
Critics Review-Bombed Black Adam at Rotten Tomatoes
Black Adam currently holds a 39% score from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. The film has witnessed a fall in its ratings since its release and now the reviewers have started review-bombing the movie. Top critics on the review website have claimed that the movie has failed to achieve everything the film claimed to be.
The reviewers do not seem to find anything favorable about the movie. One reviewer said, “Black Adam is what happens when artists say they want to go dark but don’t really have the stomach for it.”
Another reviewer said, “Dwayne Johnson is at his most uninteresting as an ancient Egyptian bodybuilder who must learn (like Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy) that sarcasm is cool and that (like Arnie in Terminator 2) torture and murder is not.”
The film’s mixed reviews include criticism regarding the overuse of CGI, uninteresting characters, and nonsensical narratives. These are some of the things that have been pointed out in the previously released movies and shows under ongoing franchises.
There have been claims that comic fans, especially white comic fans are unable to handle a world that is leaving them behind with heroes that are not just white. This can be easily understood with reviews of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and Thor: Love and Thunder.
The audience did not like either of them and still, they have a high critic score on the review website. And fans are not happy with how reviewers are bombing Black Adam with bad reviews.
Fans Call Out Reviewers for Review-Bombing Black Adam
This is not the first time a DC film has had a low rating on the website. Earlier to Black Adam, many DC movies received bad reviews but did very well at the box office. Not just that the audience also liked these films.
Fans have now started asking reviewers to stop being racist toward the film.
Fans are calling these critics an embarrassment and have even said that these critics are not authentic as they are bought and paid for by big corporations. However, despite all the critics the film is doing very well and fans are excited as the film opened the door for Henry Cavill’s return to DCEU.
Dwayne Johnson the lead star of the film has also thanked his fans for supporting Black Adam and said, “In the end, the only thing that matters to me is sending the people home happy.” He also said that the 90% audience score is so glorifying for so many reasons.
Black Adam is playing in theatres.
