Venom has just come out and the critics have already panned this film, but the real question is, is it as bad as they say it is? Well, I'll give my two cents on this little superhero film!
Venom follows an investigative journalist, Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) as he becomes synced with an alien named Venom. The evil corporation that was housing Venom, wants Venom back, and won't stop until they do.Alright, this film isn't as bad as Rotten Tomatoes critics say it is, but it's still not great.
I'll start off with the good in this film first. So in Venom the interaction of Venom and Eddie are very entertaining and very comical at points. Tom Hardy is the guy that really makes this film, otherwise this entire movie would most likely fall apart. Some of the action scenes are very cool, and you get to see some decent fights.
Now for the bad. So, Venom's motivation in the film changes really fast, and I mean fast! It's almost jarring how fast his motivation changes. The villains of the film are pretty freaking weak, and I mean that in the sense of character. The villains get little development, and how they take things to the extremes is almost laughable.
Regarding the music. The music is pretty standard for a superhero film, except for the end credits song. If you're a fan of rap, it's actually pretty good, and I would sit through that song if I were you, and besides, you have to wait for the end credits scene! Oh yeah, there is an end credits scene in this movie, but don't worry because there is only one.
Venom isn't a perfect film, but for what it's worth there is some entertainment value to be had in this movie. Like most films, theres some good and some bad, but like many other films in this genre, most find themselves somewhere in the middle.
final score: 3.3/5
