Most of the reviewers had only good things to say about the movie giving the whole credit to Johansson for carrying the movie solely on her shoulders.
One of the reviewers said that he was earlier worried that the duration of the movie will be long and it will not be as interesting but when he started watching the movie, he felt that it was much more absorbent than he had expected.
The Guradian’s Peter Bradhshow felt that Black Widow’s standalone was long overdue and adds that it was the voice and stance of the hero that he missed during the lockdown the most.
Other reviewers credited the makers of this movie for keeping the dynamics between the characters interesting and managing to build a plot that demands more from the viewers and is not restricted to the imagined sequence of the movies. “Black Widow is at its best when it’s a wacky family drama between Natasha, Yelena, Alexei, and Melina, with dashes of a spy thriller,” said one the reviewers.
The movie however will not be released in India due to the COvid-19 situation and as for the Disney+ streaming platform, the unit has not confirmed it being available on the platform anytime soon.
