Egerton Ignores Reviews for Netflix's 'Apex'

Actor Taron Egerton has adopted a new strategy regarding film reviews, notably choosing to ignore them entirely for his latest Netflix project, 'Apex.' This marks the first time in his career he has refrained from reading critical evaluations of his work.

Egerton shared his perspective on the "Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard," explaining that critical reviews can be compromised by the subjective experiences and agendas of those evaluating them. He believes that a fair appraisal, coming from goodwill, often does not make for compelling clickbait.

Instead of relying on external opinions, Egerton now makes a conscious effort to form his own judgments about films. He stressed the importance of self-validation, stating that external affirmation never truly fulfills, and turning inward to ascertain personal feelings about a project is more valuable.

'Apex,' which starred Egerton alongside Charlize Theron, was released on Netflix on April 24th and received mixed reviews, with particular praise for Theron's athleticism. Egerton's stance highlights a growing trend of artists seeking to insulate themselves from the often-subjective and sensationalized nature of modern criticism.
