Read the First Reactions to The Marvels
Nia DaCosta's The Marvels is getting high praise from critics who have taken to social media to share their thoughts ahead of its November 10 release.
Even the director of X-Men: First Class, Matthew Vaughn, recently said, "Maybe we all need a little bit of time off from" superhero movies, but The Marvels seems to be providing momentary relief from the discourse.
The universal sentiment is that The Marvels is a fun time at the theaters with great comedy and action that's best experienced among an audience.
Here's more of what they had to say
THE MARVELS is such a good time. It’s the most fun I’ve had in theaters all year. Iman Vellani is a show-stopping show-stealer. She has such a ?? presence. While the film does have its narrative issues, it’s undeniably hilarious, endearing, & delightful. #TheMarvels pic.twitter.com/IB4U11mUXd

Nia DaCosta’s #TheMarvels is a delight! The power-swapping plot is cool & all, but the real fun comes from the stellar chemistry between Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris & Iman Vellani. Low stakes aside, it delivers some of Marvel’s best action & comedy to date! See it with a crowd ?? pic.twitter.com/Qz8k9j6nAm

#TheMarvels is the most fun I’ve had watching a superhero movie in a while! It’s hilarious, action-packed & full of girl power. Kamala was a stand out & so many moments surprised me.

Nia DaCosta’s #TheMarvels is a great time at the movies! It’s well paced & full of frantic, hilarious energy. I even liked it more than 2019’s #CaptainMarvel. This thing moves! The location-swap action is a blast & the end credits scene is ?? . I’m definitely a fan.

#TheMarvels is FUN comic book movie. Despite all the sensationalism and weird energy surrounding this film, Nia DaCosta proved she was the right choice.
Teyonah Parris shines, Iman Vellani continues to show why she is a star and Brie Larson gives us a Captain Marvel we want to… pic.twitter.com/7SX9DL8XHD— B E A N Z (Miss U Mom) (@BeanzGotGamez) November 8, 2023
#TheMarvels is so much fun, action-packed goodness, but genuinely hilarious and exciting to watch from start to finish. I love my girls so much and seeing them fight all three together truly is so special. Higher, further, faster baby! pic.twitter.com/epEroO2ClU
