Venom
Saw this Tuesday morning and gotta be honest was little disappointed all tho I didn’t think it was quite as bad as the critics said to some degree I do agree with them. first of all the positive stuff the chemistry between Eddie and Venom was great and the banter between them and certain set pieces were great. The action when it did happens was great too along with the effects were good and the little Easter Eggs peppered throughout the film were good all so the humour was just right. The negatives I thought the villain was very weak, when the film first starts up they just jump in with it out fleshing things out and it felt really rushed which is how the first part of movie felt like rushed and badly edited as if things were cut out. All tho it’s supposed to be a 15 rating it didn’t look violent or a lot of gory places where it could have been gorier they either cut away or simply just don’t show you it could have easily been a 12 rating which for me was a missed a opportunity it felt like they cut the film down on purpose. The final fight scene was a bit of mess in places you could tell the cgi was or the two characters were so mixed together it was hard to tell who was who. Some characters to me felt wasted and under used, with them changing Venom origin and back story I felt the comic book version was far more interesting and engaging and it would have been nice to see his classic costume and powers again wasn’t totally there. Finally it felt like they wouldn’t nothing to do Spider-Man but yet want it be connected even tho it isn’t it’s like they can’t quite make up there minds and there’s a few plot holes and things not explained in the movie.
The two post credit scenes were great and well worth staying through the credits to watch them. Over all I didn’t think the film bad or great either.
6.4/10
