Critics Consensus

Black Widow's deeper themes are drowned out in all the action, but it remains a solidly entertaining standalone adventure that's rounded out by a stellar supporting cast.

Audience Says

Black Widow serves up another savory helping of the blockbuster Marvel formula, with a fun family dynamic adding extra character development in the midst of all the action.

The result is a film that is fun to watch, but very little else.

What ensues is a film that isn't interested in planting seeds for future Marvel movies -- which is actually a refreshing change of pace.

Almost completely lacking in Black Widow is any sense of outrage over the grotesque violations of human rights and human dignity at the root of the whole premise of the film.

The family dynamic, particularly between Natasha and Yelena, was so much fun. I thought the action was some of the best in the MCU. There was something visceral about the hand-to-hand combat — I could feel the punches through the screen.

Black Widow proves that Natasha always had what it took to hold up her own corner of the MCU and then some—it just took the assembling (ahem) of a team that cared enough to tell her story.

The story is set up so that we can see the rest of the family (and maybe Taskmaster and the Black Widows) in the future. Who knows when the next time they’ll show up will be!

An almost perfect film. The 3rd act with the floating cloud lair was really lame.
