Entering the second week, the revenue for the film Morbius at the Box Office dropped dramatically! In this way, Morbius ‘succeeded’ to break the record as a film adapted from Marvel Comics with the lowest second-week revenue.
The release of Morbius was not as expected by Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures, because this film received a lot of harsh criticism from movie geeks. In addition, Morbius also gets quite bad ratings and reviews on various film review sites.
Of course, this greatly affects the income of the film Morbius, especially in the second week.

- Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – 69.1%
- Elektra – 69%
- X-Men Origins: Wolverine – 69%
In the following week, Morbius’ income is predicted to shrink even more, because the film, starring Jared Leto, has to compete with Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, which is on fire.
Despite getting a lot of criticism and negative reviews, Daniel Espinosa as the director doesn’t really mind it, because he also often criticizes his own work. To be sure, he will continue to strive to create even better works.
“Listen, I have a lot of self-hatred so I have a lot of criticism of my own work. I always try to focus on getting better,” said Daniel Espinosa.
