Marvel’s most recent project managed to break a Rotten Tomatoes record that no MCU project has achieved in the past 16 years of movies and TV shows.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has earned some high Rotten Tomatoes scores from critics, but Marvel’s latest project, X-Men ’97, has managed to beat every MCU project. This is no small feat for the X-Men revival series, as multiple MCU movies have achieved Rotten Tomatoes scores in the 90s before. Still, Marvel’s mutants have managed to outdo even the highest-rated movies, firmly establishing X-Men ’97 as one of the best projects Marvel has turned out in the past 16 years.
X-Men ’97 received a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes from critics. This surpasses the highest-ranked MCU movie on Rotten Tomatoes, Black Panther, which received a 96%. It also just barely surpassed the MCU’s highest-rated project, Ms. Marvel, which has a 98%. It will be interesting to see how Marvel reacts to their highest rated project in recent years being one that isn’t connected to the wider MCU.
