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.

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

National Catholic Register

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.

Rated: D+

While humour is an important part of the film, it's used to serve the tragic story rather than undercut it.

What director Cate Shortland does so well with Black Widow is the balance of tones within the story, something that Marvel has struggled a little bit with their latest TV projects.

For the Win (USA Today)

We liked the cast, but it didn’t live up to the potential of telling Natasha Romanoff’s backstory.

Black Widow proves that the MCU can scale down when it needs to, which is a card trick more valuable than one might think. Natasha may be dead, but Black Widow shows how powerfully her legacy lives on.
