‘Kraven the Hunter’ Review: J.C. Chandor’s Villainous Epic Arrives Too Late to the Sony-Marvel Party
The WrapStory by Bill Bria
scrn logline
A villainous origin story that arrives too late to capitalize on the Sony-Marvel hype, 'Kraven the Hunter' struggles to find its footing in a crowded superhero landscape.
beat sheet
- Director J.C. Chandor's gritty take on the classic Marvel character fails to generate the same level of buzz as more established franchises like the MCU and Sony's own 'Spider-Verse'.
- Despite a committed performance by Aaron Taylor-Johnson as the titular antihero, the film's release feels like an afterthought, arriving in the shadow of more high-profile superhero blockbusters.
