I mean we all know it's going to get great early reviews. Nothing but fanboys have released their reviews so far. We'll get another set of positive reviews in a weak or so that aren't quite as nerdgasmy and then when all the of critics see it a few days after that we'll get a more accurate picture of it. I doubt anyone will decide whether or not they are going to see it based upon the tomatometer, at least I hope not.

Not trying to insinuate that you or even the other is necessarily trying to troll. Just something funny I came across that applies to many derailed threads.

No, we actually don't automatically know it's going to get great early reviews. BvS sure as hell didn't, not on Rotten Tomatoes. Those early reviews were the nerdgasming fanboys. These are mostly well-respected critics who don't just give immediate fresh ratings to Marvel movies.

I don't know, but a lot of people on a movie forum like to see what critics are saying about a movie either way. You don't have to care about it.
But I suggest if you don't care about it, just get the hell out of this thread. Because plenty of people are interested to see just how well this movie is received as we get closer to May 6th.

Anyways, so are the 14 reviews all we are getting for now until the movie is released? Or are there going to be more in the coming weeks?
Should be plenty more to come. I'm a little surprised as well that there haven't been more reviews today, but I guess it depends on how many Rotten Tomatoes approved critics got to see it already.
I do know Kristian Harloff, who is a RT certified critic, gave it a 9/10 in a video review, but his isn't counted on the tomatometer until he makes a review article on it.

Almost every big budget movie gets great early reviews at least from what people initially say. Now whether or not they put that in their published review is another situation.
And when the hell did IGN and Devin Faraci become well-respected critics? The former has been known to take bribes for reviews and the latter is a joke.

Why would you care how critics receive it? If you aren't then my mistake, if you are, then I really am interested to know why.

While it doesn't affect my take on the movie, it's interesting to see how people who critique movies for a living view a film. Many times they're right. Sometimes they're wrong. It also gives a good early look at how good a film should be expected to be.
As for IGN, that review is one of the most negative reviews it has so it's a moot point. Not all of the critics so far are super-revered, but they're also not fanboys only.
I pay more attention to critics who I've agreed with in the past though. People who I have read/seen enough to trust and respect their opinions. Some of those kinds of people are giving this film good reviews as well.

Fair enough. I'm sure it's reviews will be right in line with what most of Marvel's reviews are though. Some people may overrate it as a response to Batman vs. Superman, but I'll leave that alone

Boom!!
A common theme with comic book films.

This can be said for ALL genre's, especially book adaptations. Posted on 4/14/16 at 9:03 am to RollTide1987
Must be this and may involve Agent 13. I know it isn't the love story from AoU.

By the power of Jack Burton..... But yeah, I hope my stubborn and incessant approach to a movie that I don't like based on a property I do like makes sense now. Never give up!

I am perplexed by this comment....
Given the kind of approaches to modern society that we do have now. With all the talk and defense of certain life choices, then call it "icky," for a guy in impossible circumstances who never actually dated someone, to then date her granddaughter. Is it really THAT weird given the sliding morality we currently live in?
I do like the Peggy/Steve relationship, but that has nowhere to go. And Steve and Sharon are even more classic in the comic books anyways.

That's fine, I wasn't singling you out. I also have my issues with BvS. But you can't deny that OP made a good point. The amount of bickering and whining in comic films is above any other genre, IMO.

This would be an interesting discussion to have. Not necessarily in this thread, however.

IGN reviews are always so awful and you can easily tell when they are getting money for their review and not. I guess Marvel didn't care this go-through. That review was hard to read anyway when you compare it to others on this movie
