While some praised its ambitious scale, visual style, and performances, many criticized its convoluted plot, pacing issues, and tonal darkness. The film underperformed at the box office compared to expectations.

• Visually striking but narratively muddled, the film struggles under the weight of its own ambition.
• The performances of the lead actors were often praised, but the script was frequently cited as a major weakness.
• Many critics found the film's dark tone and attempt to set up a larger universe to be overwhelming and unbalanced.

Nominated for multiple Golden Raspberry Awards, including Worst Picture, Worst Director, and Worst Screenplay. Won Worst Supporting Actor for Jesse Eisenberg and Worst Sequel.
