Marvel’s Thunderbolts has received strong reviews, with critics calling it “emotional” and “the best Marvel film in years.” The star-studded cast includes Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, and David Harbour, and the film marks Jake Schreier’s MCU directorial debut.

Despite this acclaim, the film has grossed only $331 million globally after three weeks, making it one of the lowest-grossing MCU movies. Only The Marvels ($199M) and The Incredible Hulk ($265M) have earned less. The box office performance places Thunderbolts as the third-worst-performing Marvel film, highlighting growing signs of MCU fatigue.

The film could still pass Black Widow and Captain America: The First Avenger, both of which earned under $400M. However, a marketing misstep that revealed a major plot spoiler also sparked minor controversy, possibly impacting interest.
