Reviewers say ‘The Toxic Avenger’ remake is a fun yet flawed attempt, praised for its campy humor, gore, and nostalgic elements. Fans appreciate the modernization while retaining core elements, though some find it lacks the original’s charm and energy. Performances by Peter Dinklage and Kevin Bacon are highlighted, with mixed opinions on their effectiveness. The blend of practical effects and CGI is noted, with varying impacts on viewers. Success largely depends on expectations and appreciation for the original.
