Jared Leto plays the sickly Dr. Michael Morbius in Morbius, the latest movie set in the world of Spider-Man (it’s complicated, but Spider-Man is owned by Sony Pictures, who lends the web-slinger to Marvel Studios for MCU films). The doctor is a gaunt science genius who has spent his life trying to come up with a cure for his mysterious ailment; along the way, he invented artificial blood. Traveling to Costa Rica, Morbius enters a cave to capture a gigantic flock of vampire bats, whose DNA he plans to extract to create a powerful new serum, which he’ll inject into his own veins.

From the special effects to the writing, critics and viewers alike had adjacent feelings about the film. Check out their hilarious yet brutal reviews below:

• On My Way To The Hospital

  Just watched Morbius & gosh the tears in my eyes. The plot, The themes, the characters, the dynamics, the drama, the lore, the emotional moments...everything was garbage from beginning to end. On my way to the hospital, definitely the worst movie I've ever seen pic.twitter.com/YoiVFjRN5e

• One Sony Improvement

  Only thing I got from the Morbius post credit scene is that Sony improved Vulture's suit pic.twitter.com/20s8amnFAM

• The 4D Experience

  REVIEW: ‘MORBIUS’ was a phenomenal time at the movies. The 4D experience was astounding. Particularly when Jared Leto jumped out the screen, sucked my blood and then decided to take my ex-wife to dinner.

• April Fools!

  The Morbius movie comes out on April 1st, or April Fools Day. This is a reference to the fact that the movie is a joke and a complete utter waste of your time. pic.twitter.com/mx0Rz1Gp6l

• Lots Of Emotions

  #Morbius is such a well-made film that manages to be effective in making the audience feel a lot of emotions. Such emotions are, pain, regret, depression. It also managed to evoke the largest reaction to a movie i've ever seen. The moment it ended, people were crying tears of joy pic.twitter.com/oE72uT0iY8

• It Is A Film

  What an experience #Morbius is. Directed by Daniel Espinosa, It features lots of action and VFX. There is so much stuff happening and there are two post credit scenes that are there. Jared Leto gives a performance. It truly is a film. pic.twitter.com/uQCcD55q3T

• Flat, Simple, Messy, Dated

  #Morbius just isn’t very good.
  
  Parts of it, some creative action or horror-ish sequences are actually cool… but the story feels flat, simple, messy, and dated. pic.twitter.com/DxKoZ8e3s5
