Kraven the Hunter

But put your brain in park, and “Kraven” can be fun.

About as exciting as the board meeting from which it surely sprang.

Don’t believe the bad buzz; this comic book adaptation is a goofy delight.

The game has its moments, but “Kraven the Hunter” goes in one eye and out the other, which has everything to do with genre fatigue — the studios’ more so than the audience’s.

As much as it tries to be cool, the plotlines of this villain origin story just don't hang together.

Kraven the Hunter is a terrible movie, but you almost feel sorry for it.

Even with the natural charms of some performers working their magic, there’s that can really save Kraven the Hunter. Bad CGI and atrocious dialogue bring down what might have been a fun movie in other times.

Aaron Taylor Johnson prowls around this season's fatally flawed Marvel/Columbia production like a vainglorious Dr. Dolittle who veers into vigilantism as a way to dodge familial dysfunction.

If this is the end of the SSU, the sub-franchise went out on a high note – relatively speaking. But that doesn’t make Kraven worth watching, mind you.

The most frustrating thing about "Kraven" is that there’s a solid B movie buried in here.
