Thunderbolts: A Deep Dive into Marvel’s Most Controversial Film in Years

A Review Renaissance: High Praise and Mixed Reactions

The reviews for Thunderbolts are pouring in, and surprisingly, the film is garnering a remarkable 88% approval rate based on over 120 reviews. Critics and audiences alike seem to appreciate the movie’s unorthodox approach—a superhero film that boldly tackles themes of mental health, trauma, depression, and loneliness. This departure from typical superhero fare has resonated with many viewers, especially considering a visceral 27-minute therapy scene that left even the most hardened critics emotional and confused.
