Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings arrived in theaters on Thursday night, and while many critics got to share their opinions a few weeks ago, it's now the turn of moviegoers to weigh in.
The latest Phase 4 movie already has an impressive 98% "Audience Score" on Rotten Tomatoes, and it's now been confirmed that it's been awarded an "A" CinemaScore. That means Shang-Chi's origin story now ranks alongside the likes of Iron Man, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Doctor Strange.
That's not a bad club to be part of, and it's worth noting that this is a better score than Black Widow's A-.
Shang-Chi's big screen debut is clearly resonating with fans and moviegoers, and the marketing campaign for the movie just took an interesting turn. As you can see in the promo below, the hero is being touted as the MCU's "New Avenger," phrasing that gives us a good idea of where his future lies.
In our latest review of the Marvel Studios movie, we concluded by saying: "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is nothing short of action movie perfection; this is the MCU like you’ve never seen before, and it’s no exaggeration to say Simu Liu was born to play the MCU’s newest Avenger."
How would you guys rank Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings?
