Review of Venom (2018) by Simon S — 08 Oct 2018

Origin stories in comic movies are certainly something I have grown a little weary of as of late, but Venom after a slow start is fun. The inner conflict between Tom Hardy and Venom is interesting and funny at the same time.

I can see where this movie has been picked apart somewhat. Some of the action is frenetic, and the film kind of jumps from scene to scene with no rhyme or reason. However, I'm giving that a pass somewhat because I just had a good time with it.

I do think it would've been a better film had it been R rated (like Logan), but the money from opening weekend I guess was too much to resist.
