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.

Rated: 3/5

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+

It took too long to get here, but now that it’s done, Widow couldn’t have asked for a better send-off.

Black Widow” may be the most mumblecore entry in the franchise. Romanoff (how do they get assigned last names?) is the equivalent of the adult who just lost her job or got divorced then must return home to deal with some unresolved trauma

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.

Absolutely a great movie. Loved Florence Pugh and all of the newcomers to the MCU. Just wish Black Widow had a movie before she died.
