I honestly don't know what everyone's talking about, _Venom_ is **fine**! I mean... It's not great. There were a few moments I found myself thinking "This bit's pretty bad, why did they do this?" and a lot of moments I found myself thinking "This bit's pretty good, but they still probably should have just made a **real** _Venom_ movie with Marvel."
But it's fine. The absolute best parts are the interactions taking place within Venom himself (b…

Venom is a great comic adaptation. I really like what they did with the character and the story. I thought the film was done well. The special effects are pretty good. I thought the characters were cast well, and overall I just enjoyed it. The film is pretty dark and violent despite the PG-13 rating. It didn't have a lot of blood, but there was a bit here and there. Characters are mostly tossed around and beaten, but a lot of them are not shown d… read the rest.

Venom - **SPOILERS**
4/10
There seems to be quite a bit of agreement on what Im about to say about the film. Venom doesnt quite know what it is. It cant decide wether its a goofy, action or a horror movie. Therefore its all of it and none at the same time.
The goofy jokes are pretty lame, which is why they are funny, you dont laugh with the writers, you laugh at them.
The action scenes are meh at best,

It’s school holidays here in France which means the kids are at my place which in turn means lot’s of time in front of the screen. Last night it was Venom’s turn to be plopped into my Blu-ray player.
I have to say that I was a little disappointed. Sure it is a good movie and I did indeed enjoy it but not as much as I thought I would. According to the ratings it looked like the majority of the audience liked it a lot and I do like the character…

"Venom is yet another missed opportunity to deliver a great movie about the symbiote anti-hero.
This time, the character of Eddie Brock is beautifully handled, with Tom Hardy offering an impressive performance. The actor carries the entire film, which finds its entertainment peak in the interactions between Eddie and Venom.
Unfortunately, the …

The SSU - thankfully renamed from SPUMC - begins!
I enjoyed <em>'Venom'</em>, in short. Tom Hardy is one of my favourite actors and I thoroughly enjoyed his showing here as the titular character. The bonkers nature of the story, if not perfect at all, is very entertaining to watch unfold. I also found the pacing and special effects to be more than solid. Looking forward to checking out the sequel.

I loved this I have been a huge Venom fan since he debuted in comics. Tom Hardy did great. Much better than Bane.

It's getting 10 stars because I have a simple policy that, if the movie entertains, it did it's job.
That being said...it's jarring watching it as a comic book fan. You're constantly fighting the urge to look at the TV and yell "That's not how it happened!"
I don't think Eddie was as much of a scumbag as he should have been...but Hardy was far better than Grace. And they symbiote wasn't exactly as fun as it was in the comics...but then you …
