Marvel
Studios'
upcoming
release
Eternals'
early
reviews
recently
came
out
and
global
critics
were
not
impressed.
According
to
review
aggregation
site
Rotten
Tomatoes,
the
film
is
now
the
worst-reviewed
MCU
release
beating
previous
misfires
like
Thor
2
and
Black
Widow.
Chloe
Zhao's
directorial
reportedly
has
a
score
of
64
per
cent
meanwhile
The
Dark
World
and
Black
Widow,
which
are
considered
one
of
the
worst
films
in
the
franchise,
have
66%
and
79%
scores,
respectively.
The
critical
consensus
in
the
site
reads,
"An
ambitious
superhero
epic
that
soars
more
often
than
it
strains,
Eternals
takes
the
MCU
in
intriguing
-
and
occasionally
confounding
-
new
directions." The
film
has
received
plenty
of
negative
reviews,
Polygon's
critic
Joshua
Rivera
called
it
a
'mess'
and
that
it
'isn't
bold,
merely
incongruous'.
Meanwhile,
The
Playlist's
Rodrigo
Perez
called
the
film
"s
convoluted
cosmic
misfire
and
one
of
Marvel's
dullest
efforts
in
years."
BCC
reviewer
Nicholas
Barber
who
was
left
unimpressed
said,
"Eternals
may
not
be
the
worst
of
Marvel's
movies,
but
it's
undoubtedly
the
most
disappointing."
Written

Award
winner
Zhao,
