Ayer Is Still Defending Bright
Bright Was A Critical Disaster
Ayer’sBrightcould have easily been a success . The project attractedWill Smith ( Men in Black ) and Joel Edgerton ( Star Wars : Revenge of the Sith)as its run humankind . The two would play police officers in a world of magical creature in a innovative urban environment . Smith toy a traditional copper , while Edgerton submit the role of the first Orc military officer . With a budget of over $ 90 million , the movie was finally released on Netflix , where it was attacked by critic . Bright ’s poor reviewsmeant a 26 % Tomatometer grievance on Rotten Tomatoes .
Suicide Squad , which also starred Will Smith , earned the same dissatisfactory 26 % Tomatometer grievance asBright .
WhileBrightis not one ofWill Smith ’s best movies , Ayer still praise his performance and that of the rest of the cast . Ayer believes that theworld - building was the most difficult aspectthat lead to its critical disappointment , though he in person prefers world that are more " grounded " in reality .

The Movie Remains Divisive
WhileBrightsuffered a thrashing from critics , it did earn congratulations from audiences . It brought in an83 % Popcornmeter scorewith an average rating of 4.1 out of 5 . That is genuinely impressive . While the professional commentator bashed its lack of imagination or singularity , the cosmopolitan audience enjoy Smith ’s dynamic with Edgerton . The action scene , too , realise notable praise . While none pretend that the film is an Academy Award nominee , they still enjoy it . Ayer is completely correct that it work for many watcher and bear on to even today .
