Moribius

 This movie is not great by any stretch of the imagination, but I don't understand the hatred it received when it came out. Jared Leto's performance as the titular character is much better than his performance of the Joker. He manages to give a restrained performance. Some of the special effects are not mind-blowing, but creative. The plot of the story makes no sense whatsoever, but it's clear what is going to happen very shortly into the movie. The problem with the film is that it lacks Joy. The Venom franchise, as hated as it is by critics, is a fun couple of movies. And even movies that are not necessarily fun have a joy of cinema to them. There Will Be Blood is a good example of a film which is not a fun movie but shows you that joy of cinema. That being said, I think nowadays there is a tendency to despise any movie that's not an instant classic. The Marvels was a good example of that. You don't have to watch this movie if you don't want to come, and you don't have to like this movie if you don't want to, but that does not mean that it won't be entertaining for someone.
