Pop culture insiders and scoopers like Chad Ryan aka The GeekyCast have likened Thunderbolts to the critically acclaimed Captain America: The Winter Soldier — a grounded espionage-action thriller. “The action scenes are amazing,” Ryan wrote earlier, echoing sentiments from early November test screenings.

Although Marvel’s recent Phase V films (Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, The Marvels) received similar early praise only to falter with critics and audiences, the latest Thunderbolts screening — post-reshoots — is giving fans genuine reason to hope.
Jenkins Peeler, another entertainment source, revealed that Thunderbolts scored among the highest of all Phase V films in test screenings. Some viewers even dubbed it “the best Marvel film since Endgame,” despite the franchise’s recent string of underwhelming entries.
