‘Thunderbolts’ First Reactions: Florence Pugh Is ‘Superb’ in ‘Some of Marvel’s Darkest Material to Date’


Florence Pugh is dominating the praise in the first reactions for Marvel's "Thunderbolts," in theaters May 2.

Next Best Picture editor in chief Matt Neglia writes that “Thunderbolts” is “some of Marvel’s darkest material to date” and “very much belongs to Florence Pugh, who carries much of the dramatic weight of the movie on her back, while Lewis Pullman delivers a complex performance as a sympathetic character at war with himself. Film writer Emily Murray called “Thunderbolts” easily “one of the best MCU movies in a long time,” adding: “Has so much spark, charisma, and tells a genuinely emotional story you connect with. Following a group of mouthy anti-heroes teaming up against a common threat, the film stars Florence Pugh (Yelena Belova), Lewis Pullman (Sentry), Wyatt Russell (John Walker), Hannah John-Kamen (Ghost), Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barns), David Harbour (Red Gaurdian) and Olga Kurylenko (Taskmaster).
