Thunderbolts* review
While the first reactions to Thunderbolts* were overtly glowing, our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Thunderbolts* review was slightly more measured. Reviewer Emily Garbutt gave the movie 3.5🧸 stars, calling it "a refreshing offering from the MCU that takes ple♊nty of big swings and only occasionally misses."
She went on to add: "The movie cares more about the characters and♉ relationships on screen than the franchise at large, and that means we do too."

Thunderbolts* trailer
There were several Thunderbolts* trailers released before the movie hit the big screen. One of the best was rel🍌eased at the 2025 Super Bowl (you can watch it above). In the clip, Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine tells a courtroom that the Avengers "aren't coming", so it's the Thunderbolts who will have to save the world. There's plenty of ass-kicking action, explosions, and car flips, which gives us an idea of what to expect from the upcoming movie.
Previously, we saw a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Thunderbolts* special look trailer (which you can watch below) on November 9, 2024, released during Disney's D23 Brazil event. The teaser is 👍on the longer side, running for over three minutes and 40 s🐼econds, so buckle in if you plan on watching for yourself.
If you ar♍en't fussed about watching the clip above, though, here's our summary: it shows the team at first coming to blows and then ultimately teaming up together under Valentina's direction – along with newcomer Bob, who may or may not be Sentry. Bucky also seems to be keeping an eye on Valentina, and, at one point, he attacks the Thunderbolts*. Yelena, meanwhile, is searching for purpose. Oh and there is also a car chase featuring some jokes that lasts for about a minute as well.
Tꦯhen, just a month before its release and following the Avengers casting new♚s, Marvel released a new trailer giving us our best look yet at Sentry, check it out below.

The Thunderbolt𓆉s* follows a group of mis🌄fits searching for purpose. It brings back several anti-heroes of Marvel's past alongside newcomer Lewis Pullman who plays Bob/Sentry. The group are brought together for Valentina to face against "worse guys" than them in the new team-up.
