Venom

Venom, Venom… it was a fun ride while it lasted. There was action, humor; cast performance was good and it was apparent that Tom Hardy really enjoyed playing the role of Eddie Brock/Venom but even with all that Venom was soo directionless and chaotic. In short, it had no purpose.

I don’t hate the movie but while watching it, I missed Spiderman’s presence. I remember when I was younger every time I read a Spiderman comic book with venom in it I got scared because he was one of Spidey’s toughest adversaries.

I applaud the idea to make Venom a standalone movie but let’s face it there is no Venom without Spiderman. With all the decapitations and strong language I think the writers were confused whether to turn Venom into a Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Movie or a Deadpool lookalike.

There is hope yet for our anti-hero as there might be a future crossover between Venom and Spiderman and am glad because I don’t think Venom would do well as a standalone movie franchise.

Check out Venom at your nearest cinema if for no reason but to see him eat a few human heads (lol) laterz.
