Captain America: Brave New World is now playing in theaters in the US and most other regions worldwide, and reviews have been coming in since the embargo lifted on Wednesday evening - most of them negative.

Based on 245 reviews, Anthony Mackie's big-screen debut as the Sentinel of Liberty is currently sitting at 51% on Rotten Tomatoes.

While this score may fluctuate slightly over the next few days, it's unlikely to climb much higher, and it looks like Brave New World is set to become just the third Marvel Studios movie to be hit with the dreaded "Rotten" splat on the aggregator after Eternals and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

Reviews aside, box office projections are decent enough, and the movie is expected to take in close to $100 million domestically (it could reach $200M worldwide). It's also worth noting that the RT Audience Score is a significantly higher 79%.

Anticipation for this one always seemed somewhat muted after the first trailer and negative test-screening reports that supposedly (and we can now say evidently) led to extensive reshoots.

Last night, Vulture published an article with quotes from a crew member who worked on the film, and they claim that pretty much everyone involved with the production was aware that the movie was not going to turn out well.

"Reshoots are a part of making any movie like this with a big budget. But this isn’t Marvel’s first rodeo. Entire sequences we shot won’t make it into the film, and that’s very expensive. I’m not going to say the director was not equipped to handle that production. Basically, dealing with A-list egos was the issue. It was mainly just Harrison Ford. So that was a little disappointing. At the end of the day, it was the most tense Marvel shoot I’ve ever worked on. Everyone kind of felt their buttholes tightening a little bit. It’s like, Ugh."

At the end of the day, all that really matters is how a movie is received by the fans, and we want to know what you thought of Brave New World. Be sure to vote in the poll below, and elaborate in the comments section.

Let’s face it. Post ‘Endgame’, the two most universally praised “MCU” films are a Sony Spider-Man movie and a Fox X-Men movie. Not ideal.

@Lisa89 - Spider-Man No Way Home, Shang Chi, Guardians Vol 3, Loki S1 - S2, Ms. Marvel, Deadpool & Wolverine, Werewolf By Night, and Wandavision were all highly praised.

This article will be hijacked by the usual suspects who openly admit to never watching the movies or this current movie but express their negative opinion on it. Imagine spending months bashing a movie you had no intention of seeing and then using someone else's review or opinion and owning it as your own. Very weird.

@SonOfAGif - I watched the movie. When President Ross turned into a big red thing-y because he took too many anti-erectile-dysfunction pills, it instantly became one of the movies of all time in my book.

@SonOfAGif - hmm so if someone doesn't have the same opinion of yours, they're toxic or they haven't seen it. Snyder cult would be proud
