The first reactions to Sony's latest Marvel movie Kraven the Hunter are in –ꦺ and they're praising the R-rated action, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and little else.
Also starring Ariana DeBose (as Calypso), Fred Hechinger (as Kraven's half-brother Chameleon), Christopher Abbott, Levi Miller, and Russell Crowe (as Kraven's father Nikolai Kravinoff), the superhero flick sees Kraven (Taylor-Johnson) face-off against Al♓essandro Nivola's Rhino while navigating his complicated, antagonistic rela♛tionship with his dad.
."Kraven the Hunter is the perfect example to teach on film schools of how badly messed up your editing, story and ♌performances," said . "There's only one good action sequence, but awful stuff. Glad this universe is ending."
"So Kraven the Hunter... A big ol bucket of NAH. While I liked the action, it cutaway from it so qu🔯ick one didn't get to enjoy it! AWFUL acting, terrible script and a waste of Aaron Taylor Johnson, who I actually enjoyed in the role! Wayyyy too quick, not a great story… farewell," tweeted .
Not everyone disliked the movie, though. took to Twitter to praise the movie, gushing: So… I'm seeing other people post reac𝓰tions so I guess the social media embargo has lifted….? I LOVED IT As good as the first Venom. I would watch it aga🍷in!"

#KravenTheHunter is fun when Johnson is in action causing bloody chaos but everything else is a drag. Great cast held back by clunky dull dialogue. Another instance of a villain turned hero. A story that lacks any intrigue. Rhino &am💙p; Chameleon wasted. Overall a disappointment. pic.twitter.com/YIlyJnsjQH
I really wanted to love Kraven The Hunter, but the awful first act, bad CGI and even worst dialogu🧔e ruined it. The best things about the film are Aaron's performance and the BLOODY action se🌼quences but that wasn't enough. These characters deserved better. #KravenTheHunter pic.twitter.com/fF7aCGFI6c
#Kraven excels in action but ultimately just doesn’t have the sauce. Strange story structure decisions, overwhelmingly brutal ADR, & an overall disbelief w/in the characters themselves. Crowe was the only one who sold his dialogue. Leagues above✤ most SSUs but still lacks. pic.twitter.com/195gyBcmXI
Saw #KravenTheHunter tonight and why do CGI animals in 2024 look worse than the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park from over 30 years ago? CGI blockbusters need to make changes because somehow they are looking more and more unrealistic. The JP T-Rex is still the gold standard. pic.twit🍎ter.com/IxJM6E7gIS
Just saw #KravenTheHunter and it's a total BLAST! There are lots of references to the Spider-Man lorಌe that will wow fans. Great cinematic action, the R-Rating was a delight. Aaron Taylor-Johnon really embodied the character, phenomenal performance. Don't miss it December 13th! pic.twitter.com/gGPXajgqYG
