Review of Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021) by Doppeljack — 01 Nov 2021

Spoiler alert for the fortunate ones who didn't bother watching the movie. I envy you lucky few. Well, just for starters, the only "Carnage" presented in this sorry excuse to make a buck off fans or kids, was done to towards the character instead. CK is portrayed as a victimized serial killer. He got the look done right, but all the dialogue was whack. I didn't get any serial killer vibes off him. Not the way guards would avoid eye contact. As for "Carnage", he is born by the biting the thumb of Brock. Yes, Biting his thumb. No Psychotic voices neither from CK, nor carnage. And CK is also a lover boy? In what universe does that sound scary? As if that wasn't bad enough he frees everyone inmates from prison! I thought I'd see heads flying, or at least some inmates getting chopped to pieces. But this movie is so censored, even when CK kills someone, it's either by getting choked or they don't bother showing. Don't even get me started on Brock. Venom 1 sucked, the sequel is even worse. I though the character would own up, and actually grow. There's no growth to his character whatsoever. Sadly, he becomes an even bigger loser, and depressive waste of skin. If you think about it, he hasn't done anything for two movies! Venom is the one cracking jokes and fighting. Brock is just the meatsuit. There's an interesting scene where Venom sees the markings of CK all over his cell. Venom has photographic memory and cartographic abilities. He accesses the internet and boom! Solved a murder nearly a decade old. While Brock doesn't do ANYTHING. As for Venom. They made him this family-Disney like character where he's cracking jokes the whole damned movie. Lethal Protector is the funniest joke in the movie (not really), Venom the almighty symbiote is forbidden to eat brains. Even from bad guys. We then see a castrated, fastened Venom. Another thing that WAS WAY OFF, is the insight Brock makes when he sees Carnage arguing with CK. "They are not a match like us" WHAT THE HELL?!

They were supposed to be an even better match than Brock.

I could go on and on, and I won't get my money back, but I think you got the point.

It's ok trying to change certain things from the original comics. But next time, try actually reading a comic or two before destroying a legacy.

Did anyone see any separation anxiety? I sure as hell didn't.
