Review of Morbius (2022) by Thetr4Shboi — 01 Apr 2022

The writing of this movie could have been A LOT better. There are a lot of inconsistencies and aspects that feel forgotten about:

- Why wasn't Morbius attacked by the bats in his initial encounter with them? It's implied that they feel a kinship and won't attack after taking the serum but what about when he stood in a swarm of them in the beginning? - "They'd rip the flesh of a normal man".

- Lucius seems all too fine with killing people. He was never shown to be psychopathic or otherwise inclined towards murder other than hitting a kid with his crutch after they bullied him as a child.

- The world seems all too fine with the aspect of vampires. There are people with superhuman powers attacking people and draining their blood but nobody happens to care? No public freakout?

- Morbius makes 2 serums to kill his friend/enemy Milo (Lucius) and himself. Yet, after killing Milo he doesn't take the serum. This is never explained and seemingly forgotten by the end of the movie where he's driving a nice car (???) and speeding down a highway to meet the Vulture. Which is another thing.

- Morbius agrees to meet with the vulture in regards to some vendetta with Spider-Man... Morbius isn't a villain? He has never shown villanous characteristics throughout the movie. Why would he meet with someone just out of prison and looking to fight a hero?

Other than that, the acting wasn't terrible and was just hindered by a lackluster, non-sensical script. The effects, while not great, weren't terrible. IF there is a sequel, someone else needs to write it.
