Not the worst but also definitely not the best.

The child actors in the beginning were horrible.
This comes off strongly as either a very low-budget marvels film, or a covid production. There were barely any actors to begin with, let alone female actors who’d pass any Bechdel or other test. But that wasn’t what I expected this film to do.
The story was a little rushed. There was little depth to it, like no real consequences for the outside world - just a singular story about a singular fate (expanded into two, three people) Another thing that makes it feel like they just tried to pump out “another one for the franchise, let’s slap a pretty face on it and it’ll sell ok enough”. There were a lot of moments that weren’t thought through, or plain silly.

Like the fight down in the subway - not only would there have been CCTV, there were a lot of witnesses that could have told the FBI already then that it wasn’t just ONE “vampire”.

Another thing is how Morbius apparently was highly suspected by the FBI, but they hadn’t tapped his phone or tracked him in any other way? Unlikely.

And what the heck is the other FBI agent trying to do by shaking the litter box of the cat, calling “Kitty Kitty”? That’s the dumbest I’ve seen in a while. Yeah sure, that’s how you attract cats. “Look, fresh litter! come kitty kitty!”
As well as Martine randomly getting scratched by an otherwise extremely docile cat. That’s just convenient eye roll material.

All in all, with a lacklustre story, it could have gone straight to Netflix and not been shown on the cinema at all. Still, it wasn’t as terrible that I regretted seeing it. I was mildly entertained. Wished the bits of humour had been more on point. The Venom joke was ok, but otherwise, it just felt mostly tired. Pretty, but tired. I don’t think many people would have gone to see it, weren’t it for Jared starring in it.
