Hideo Kojima gives his verdict on Thunderbolts – and he liked it more than Captain America: Brave New World
Social media's best film critic has spoken!

The internet’s favorite film reviewer, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hideo Kojima, has finally shared his thoughts on Marvel’s newest movie, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Thunderbolts*, and it's hi🦹s most positive MCU re✱view of the year.
The game developer took to on May 11 to let his followers know just what he thinks of Thunderbolts. "I watched 🥀Thunderbolts*," said Kojima. "It’s not about eliminating a powerful external enemy to save the world. It’s about embracing lonely individuals and 𝔉rescuing the audience from their own inner enemies. A truly kind-hearted MCU film."
However, it seems as though star Florence Pugh, who plays Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow’s rebellious younger sister Yelena Belova, seems toꦚ have stolen the show for Kojima, as he wrote, "...above𒊎 all, Florence Pugh was phenomenal." Check out the full post below.
I watched “Thunderbolts*.” It’s not about eliminati🅰ng a powerful “external enemy” to save the “world.” It’s about embracing lo𒅌nely “individuals” and rescuing the “audience” from their own “inner enemies.” A truly “kind-hearted” MCU film.

Kojima’s Thunderbolts review is vastly different from what he had to say about Marvel’s first 2025 release, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Captain America: Brave New World, which 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:left the 𒀰game designer in utte♑r confusion. "I vaguely remember Sam receiving the shield in [Avengers: Endgame],🍨 but w๊hen did he officially become Cap?" asked Kojima via Twitter. "...I’m also getting it mixed up with the Thunderbolts trailer."
Of course, it is important to note that Kojima’s confusion over the fourth Captain America movie was probably due to him not having seen The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, where Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson officially donned the suit. However, this does reinforce the biggest problem with 🃏Marvel at the moment, in that you cannot watch a new MCU movie without having seen previous projects first.
Directed by Jake Schreier, Thunderbolts follows Marvel’s most unconventional group of antiheroes as they embark on a dangerous mission to save the world in the absence of The Avengers. Alongside Pugh, the movie stars Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes), ꦺDavid Harbour (Red Guardian), Hannah John-Kamen (Ghost), Olga Kurylenko (Taskmaster), Wyatt Russell (John Walker), and Lewis Pullman (Bob).
