Joe and Anthony Russo directed four of the best MCU movies, but the responses to their post-Avengers: Endgame films have been overwhelmingly negative.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Joe and Anthony Russo directed one of the biggest movies of all time, but their films and TV shows following Avengers: Endgame have struggled to make any kind of impact. The Russo brothers were always unlikely candidates to handle an MCU movie, as they got their start in comedy, directing episodes of TV series such as Community and Arrested Development.
Next, the Russos directed the bland action thriller The Gray Man, which stars Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling. The movie was released exclusively on Netflix a little over one year after Cherry and similarly fared poorly with critics if not audiences. As the movie wasted its talent, the movie received a low score of 46% on Rotten Tomatoes. Still, it was popular enough on the streaming service to get a sequel, as well as a potential spinoff film.
The Russos Were Always Going To Struggle After Endgame - But Have Made Poor Choices There's no denying that the Russo brothers faced an uphill battle following the release of Avengers: Endgame, and whatever movies they decided to follow up with were always going to be unfairly compared to their tenure in the MCU. There are 38 characters in Avengers: Endgame's final battle, which features so many fan service moments and shots that are lifted right out of the comic book panels.
The Russo Brothers' Post-Endgame Career Is Closer To Their Career Average The average critic score for the Russo brothers' movies on Rotten Tomatoes, as directors, is 64.5%. This could be better but is technically still "fresh." However, their non-MCU movies act as a heavy anchor, as the directing duo's average Rotten Tomatoes score for their MCU movies is a huge 89.75%, which is a high enough score that could put them in the debate of best directors of the 2010s.
