First, I wanted to say that I have a quite a big expectation and look forward for the Venom Movie as it stars Tom Hardy (from mad max: fury road). But, reality often strikes hard as the film was mediocre at best and there are only few notable things from the movie itself. I would rate it about 6 at best.
The only fun things here are the interaction between venom and tom hardy, even though when they are not fighting and just in daily life. The action scene is nothing spectacular and felt can be unique and special by utilizing venom's power. The hue is kind of blueish horror but the movie can be felt jumping from comedy to action and then to horror and then back to action again which felt somewhat unfitting for the tone of the movie.
The story was nothing special, but I felt the villain is very inconsistent with his principle. I think riz ahmed can be good, but the character he plays seems to be so boring and have unclear or yet conflicting motive for doing what he does. I think that the more suitable villain for venom should provide more brawl than the one this movie provide.
Well, not all is lost because by the credits scene rolls, we are presented by Eminem Song -- Venom. Which is great and I love the song better than the movie. If you still want to watch, give the trailer a go.
