Some viewers who didn’t really like Don’t Look Up were still generally happy with Evans’ cameo. As one fan says, “I see what Don’t Look Up was trying to do, but didn’t quite hit the mark to make it a lasting impression. I do, however, live for Chris Evans cameos and think they should be more of a regular thing across all kinds of films.”
