Jared Leto is a new kind of bat, man, in Sony's vampire superhero film 'Morbius'

The critics have spoken. And it’s not looking good for “Morbius,” now in theaters as a showcase for Jared Leto as Marvel’s “living vampire.”

Jared Leto and Matt Smith are an outstanding doctor and his evil nemesis respectively, both grappling with the power to change into an evil demon

It is, however, generic as all hell—a surprise given the Jared Leto of it all.

Is 'Morbius,' the superhero movie starring Jared Leto as a moody vampire, the worst Marvel movie ever made? It's definitely the most anemic.

Forget the Dark Knight. In Morbius, Jared Leto is the Pale Knight, a serious-minded, soft-spoken biochemist in a ponytail who wants only one thing: To...

Bland action and thin characterisation make Leto’s super-villain movie a chore – even for diehard Marvel fans

The action movie grows increasingly tiresome on its way to a predictable, underwhelming conclusion.

Jared Leto is Marvel's living vampire. Read the Empire review now.

You know what I’d like to see? I’d like to see a movie where Jared Leto turns into a better actor.Meantime there’s “Morbius,” where Leto plays not Batman but a man who turns into a bat man, vampire blood coursing through veins that manage to over- and under-act simultaneously.In the space between those words “bat” […]

This might be a new low for Marvel movies.

Jared Leto’s one-note vampire is possibly the least helpful superhero we’ve seen yet.

After watching Jared Leto's vampire thriller 'Morbius', even the most committed Marvel fan could drop dead from boredom

It's close to being a generic Marvel movie, right down to Leto's one-note scientist-turned-vampire.

The tired and gloomy new Marvel movie “Morbius,” which is made by Sony and not part of the massive Marvel Cinematic Universe, suffers from chronic obviousness.

Matt Smith co-stars in Marvel’s origin story of the conflicted antihero, a doctor who uses vampire bats to treat his rare blood disorder.

The latest hero from Marvel is hard to explain. He's a man and yet also a bat. No, not Batman. Let me try again: He's a daywalking vampire, but, no, not that cool cat Blade.

As Marvel movies go, “Morbius” is more a sip than a gulp, a relatively small-boned Jekyll-and-Hyde tale that moves another Spider-Man villain into the spotlight. Significantly better than “Venom” but still somewhat lacking in bite, this origin story perhaps inevitably grows more pallid toward the end but until then proves just tasty enough to merit the giving it a shot.

Jared Leto stars as a Nobel laureate who accidentally acquires a taste for blood in a surprisingly good superhero film from Swedish director Daniel Espinosa.

Movie Review: Starring Jared Leto, Morbius provides an origin story for a Spider-Man villain, but it never quite feels like a comic book movie. Rather, it’s a mad scientist movie with loads of atmosphere. Matt Smith and Jared Harris co-star.

'Morbius' is exactly the movie most people are expecting it to be, so at least it doesn't disappoint on that front.

A misbegotten superhero/horror hybrid.

The latest Marvel movie stars Jared Leto as a superhero with an unusual beverage preference.

Morbius is an origin story that lacks fangs and bite, marred by shoddy computer-digital fights and an overly serious tone that does the darkened flick no favors.

Spider-Man spin-off is too flavourless to even be the wild, untethered disaster some were secretly hoping for

Whereas Marvel movies are largely produced and distributed by Disney, Sony has managed, through high-stakes negotiations, to retain its license to all characters associated with Spider-Man. Having burned through many of the top-tier villains in Spider-Man's canon, Sony needed to dig into the lesser-known creatures the web-slinger has contended with. This brings us to Morbius, directed

Director Daniel Espinoza stacks vampire clichés with horror classic visuals in a lackluster, but hardly disastrous, Spider-Man spinoff
