When an ill genius succeeds in developing a cure for his rare blood disease, he is instead infected with a sort of vampirism. He has superhuman abilities, but they also turn him into a serial killer. Is he capable of saving the world from himself and others who wish to exploit his invention?
This film, like the majority of Marvel films, is fundamentally a tale of good vs evil. Dr. Michael Morbius (Jared Leto) is a Nobel Laureate who has battled a life-threatening blood condition since childhood, but that hasn't stopped him from helping others. He succeeds in developing a cure for his own condition that could save millions of others, but it quickly turns into a curse, turning him into a bloodthirsty vampire. Morbius, on the other hand, is more aware of who he is and will go to any length to prevent him from killing innocent people, although his surrogate brother Milo (Matt Smith) isn't as evolved. Milo, who suffers from the same disease as Morbius, embraces the new 'cure"s demonic powers and unleashes a reign of terror across the city. Dr. Morbius is the only one who can stop him. Is he capable of doing so?
You realise it's a question that can't be answered simply with a 'yes' or a 'no.' Even when the credits roll, you'll have to sit through the movie because some elements are left open to interpretation. 'Morbius' follows the same pattern as previous films, in which filmmaker Daniel Espinosaa and his co-writers (Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless) present us with a simple notion that almost stands alone as a plot.
As both the protagonist and the adversary utilise their talents to achieve what they believe is right, the screen is continually spooky and dark. The only thing that makes this film interesting is how Dr. Morbius and Milo leave smoky psychedelic tracks as they jump off rooftops and fall from high-rises. The film has a short runtime, but the climax is sudden, which we're sure is on purpose.
