Reviews

Despite a talented cast led by Chris Hemsworth, 'Blackhat' failed to impress critics with its mishmash of cyberthriller and action elements. Rotten Tomatoes gave the movie a disappointing 33% rating, criticizing its lack of originality and poor pacing. IMDb users rated it 5.5/10, citing a weak script and underdeveloped characters. Metacritic scored 'Blackhat' 51/100, highlighting its ambitious premise but overall execution issues. The film's attempt to blend cyber technology with traditional action falls short of creating a cohesive narrative, leaving audiences underwhelmed. While the movie has some thrilling moments and stylish visuals, it ultimately struggles to engage viewers on an emotional level.
