Review of Venom (2018) by Theanticritic — 06 Oct 2018
Don't listen to the critics. This was a great film and felt like a whole new genre of superhero movie in comparison to the slightly formulaic movies being produced by the MCU these days (not saying I don't enjoy MCU movies just saying it's starting to feel formulaic).
It seems that many critics are regarding it as an MCU film without doing their research and expected a light-hearted comedy film with some action. While this film has an element of comedy, it is much darker than most MCU films released in recent memory - maybe on par with The Winter Soldier.
Venom's reviews were also bombarded by Lady Gaga fans around the time of previews, which I'm sure had an effect on the critic's scores also. I am scoring this film a 10/10 as the critics have also scored this film unfairly however I would have actually scored this film a 7 or 8 out of 10 if not for the critic reviews.
Overall, great movie and 100x better than TASM movie previously released by sony (terrible),and it also beats the only film released with venom in it previously by a long shot (spider-man 3).
