Looks like word of mouth is catching up to it. Reviews seem mixed (Critic love but audience indifference). 2nd Weekend drop could be brutal. {nm} VictorY Mar 09, 09:15

Your opinion differs from actual exit polling. Cinemascore is A. Postrak 4 1/2 stars, 86% from females, 80% from males. {nm} Antibody Mar 09, 09:33

68% def recommend they quote is the key stat to wom. Thats great. Its drop will be in line with other Marvel movies {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 09:49

68% definite recommend is great? That's a D on a test. {nm} RollingThunder Mar 09, 09:51

Anything over 50 is good. Over 60 is great. This is two thirds the audoence. Few films get that {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 09:57

".300 batting average is great? that gets you failed out of any school in the country" {nm} professor zovek Mar 09, 09:58

Ever try hitting a 90mph heater? Outside of the studio, there are groups that want this to do well, I get it. {nm} RollingThunder Mar 09, 10:00

Let me 100% clear. This movie is doing well because the general movie public wanted to see it and they like it a lot {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 10:08

And haters wanna hate. We get it. {nm} Antibody Mar 09, 10:34

Ever try getting over 50% Definite Recommend on a movie exit poll? I fell for the hype on Mary Poppins but I didn't ignore the numbers and Catzan Mar 09, 11:08

i dare Bryce Harper to try and write a screenplay {nm} professor zovek Mar 09, 13:40

You of all people should know that percentage scores on movies carry different grades than percentage scores on school tests. Jay_Beezy Mar 09, 20:45

Same happened to "Solo," pulled a high opening but completely flamed out on 2nd weekend. This feels like "Solo." 2.0. {nm} VictorY Mar 09, 10:03

Not true. Solo underperformed immediately because they failed to draw beyond the star wars fans {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 10:09

And in this case, its Marvel fans and still no expansion of audience thru word of mouth. You see my point. Heard all this from "Solo" before VictorY Mar 09, 10:16

Heard what about solo? you are one person. I'm talking about exit polls. Marvel fans are about half of captian Marvel's audience. {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 10:21

IMDB has CM's rating down to 6.8 and the reviews seem legit there.. (Rotten Tomatoes low, but probably not accurate). Its a "meh" film. {nm} VictorY Mar 09, 10:23

IMDb is opt in polling and subject to review bombing. I'm talking about scientific polling that can calculate a margin of error {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 10:25

The featured review on IMDB says its nothing to Marvel at. (pardon the pun). Other reviews say same story problems. I'm seeing a pattern {nm} VictorY Mar 09, 10:29

That you're willfully ignorant? Theres one reality here and it's in the data {nm} Moviesnob Mar 09, 10:35

Data aside, I loved it. I’m gonna go back next weekend. {nm} eternal warrior Mar 10, 14:06

Stopped clock box office analysis. {nm} RogerMore Mar 09, 10:10

I know nothing about Marvel movies anymore, and I can say clearly this feels nothing like Solo. You had true Star Wars burnout with Solo. goodvibe61 Mar 09, 10:38

It wasn't just SW burnout that bombed Solo. Jay_Beezy Mar 10, 10:37

The third will not do as well?...however, the numerical evidence indicates it will follow the same pattern as the previous third films. {nm} Catzan Mar 10, 21:03

It just like Solo, except people are enjoying it and feeling inspired to tell their communities on social media to see it. tatoufan Mar 09, 10:52

I haven't seen it yet but {nm} albrown Mar 09, 12:27

it looks like for everything I hear from those around me that have its a better movie than Solo {nm} albrown Mar 09, 12:28

Word of mouth has been stellar (for good reason) -- quit showing your butt, it's unbecoming. {nm} MiyazakiFan Mar 09, 15:28

Wow! I like my crow my fried. {nm} McNavia Mar 09, 14:50
