I've been quite generous in how I've received (the apparently now finished) <em>'Sony’s Spider-Man Universe'</em>, but even I can't give you any positives for this one.
<em>'Venom'</em> is its peak, though I genuinely enjoyed <em>'Madame Web'</em> (don't @ me) and even (the not good) <em>'Morbius'</em> didn't overly bother me. <em>'Kraven the Hunter'</em>, however, did well and truly bore me. Aaron Taylor-Johnson offers a glimmer of hope, but this makes for a looooong 2hrs 7mins (why that long, I have no idea).
The first few scenes, whilst nothing exceptional, are actually perfectly OK -…

I can't really go lower than a six for this because ATJ is just so easy on the eye. Reductive? Well, yes, but if that's the only card a film has then you might as well get your shirt off and play it! Sadly, that is all that can really be said for this plodding superhero adventure. The "Kravinoff" siblings "Dimi" (Billy Barratt) and "Sergei" (Levi Miller) are taken out of their posh school by their oligarch father (Russell Crowe) and taken on a hunt in Ghana to develop their masculinity. They are on the trail of a lion called "Czar" and it's an encounter with him and then with a local girl call…

@r96sk I totally agree with your review and also about Maddem Web and Morbius (They were not blockbuster bny any stretch but not as horrible as most make them to be) but this one was not it and too lonmg and draw out for no real reason. Sony needs to stick to spider-man and leave the rest to Marvel

I know this film has attracted a lot of criticism but I personally don't think "Kraven, The Hunter" is a bad film.
Firstly, this is a fresh, down to earth, departure from your standard Marvel Franchise films.Idiots in over bright Lycra or Spandex outfits, are, thankfully, absent.
Instead, you get a more conventional, satisfyingly believable, character. One who happens to be have been given special powers, that feel primal and earthy, compared, for example, to hammers and lighting bolts.
Actions reasonable too, with settings I could relate to and a story that's well told, if unsurpr…

Kraven was what I would call a good holiday action film that probably didn't get a good chance. I have no idea why it seems every Marvel associated movie is getting the fan negativity treatment. Not every movie will be a triple A Endgame film. Kraven was a secondary character at best in the comics so I think you have to set your expectations appropriately. I hope that the movie does well on streaming and physical sales. I would have liked to see how the story arc would have gone in future films but unfortunately it probably won't get a sequel.
My advice to anyone watching movies these …
