Review of Venom (2018) by Robert N — 05 Oct 2018
Really enjoyed the film, although it could have benefited from an R-rating. While their were parts that could have been better, it was not as disjointed as the critics would want you to believe. Tom Hardy was fantastic as Brock/Venom and put a smile on my face any time the two bantered.
The action was typical of your modern day superhero movie... don't think there was anything new and inventive, but hey, I don't think superhero movies have done anything new and inventive since Donner and Burton kicked off the genre.
Regardless, none of action sequences were boring and some were even suspenseful. Overall, I would recommend seeing this flick in theaters... has the right amount of comedy, action, horror and comic book in it.
I'm looking forward to the sequel. Normally I'd rate this movie as a solid 4... but due to the critic bashing I'm gonna give it a bump up to 5. Don't understand what more they want from a enjoyable comic book movie.
