Morbius continues to defy critical reviews to become second most popular movie on Netflix US right now
It’s Morbin’ time... again

Marvel and Sony’s Spider-Man spin-off Morbius has been climbing up Netflix’s streaming charts. The movie reac🍬hed the platform in the US on September 9, and it’s already at number two in their Top 10 film list, only behind the Netflix Or🍰iginal film End of the Road.
Morbius stars Jared Leto as Dr. Michael Morbius, a scientist suffering from a rare blood disease. While trying to cure himself with an experimental new blood transfusion, he inadvertently becomes a vampire. But while Moribus wants to keep his monstrous side from emerging, his childhood friend Milo (Matt Smith) – who also gets the transfusion – ha♛s no such qualms about embracing his vampiric nature.
The superhero movie opened with a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:mediocre box office taking on April 1, 2022, drawing a worldwide total of $164 million. It also received several negative reviews from critics, calling o🧜ut the po💯or post-credits scene and inconsistent story. The Total Film verdict was just two starsไ, branding it a "ro🦄te, lifeless, and cynical attempt to expand Sony’s Spidey-Verse".
However, despite this, the movie has seemingly remained popular with viewers. Morbius currently has a 71% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, compared to its 15% score with critics. Morbius has also inspired a cult following thanks to a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:barrage of memes circulating online, which 💃even led Sony to attempt a re-release in cinemas.
