6/10 overall, but the mid credits scene almost makes me want to give it a 7.

6/10 overall, but the mid credits scene almost makes me want to give it a 7. with this film breaking Oct records financially, we might hope to see this scene come to full fruition. I was also most impressed with the carnage of modern hair implantation methods and regrowth medicines, if I ever get bald I want what Woody had.  |

6.5 for me. Good enough to be enjoyable, not good enough to compete with the average MCU movie.

7.5 far better than many superhero movies i have seen. Venom works as a movie But it isn't a superhero movie, neither Venom/Brock really do anything particularly heroic or even admirable outside of stopping Riot/Drake. Eddie is also actually perfectly okay with letting Venom bite the heads off of people in the end instead of trying to make him resist the urge to do so and take criminals to the proper authorities. He's an anti-hero, not a superhero. Its even the movie's own tagline. Actually it doesn't really work as a movie, it has lots of gaps in logic and strong tonal inconsistency - sometimes its aiming to be sci-fi horror then other times its trying to be a wacky dark comedy. It's saved by Tom Hardy and Michelle Williams' performances and to a certain extent the direction because the director has shown competency before with other productions however the movie is a real setback for comic based movies and feels like it came out in the 1990s instead of today. |

That he does, unless its Kat Dennings delivering them or if the movie or series in question has graphic content of some kind and murky colors. I'm actually kind of eager to see him re-use "Star Lord beat Ronan by dancing, Drax eating chips, any Stark lines" to defend Venom when none of them are as ridiculous or do as less of a service to the narrative as Eddie Brock going nuts in a restaurant, jumping into a tank of lobsters and biting the head off one, or earlier touching a steak and stating "this thing is not alive!" |

I thought you hated comedy. Compared to mcu movies there wasn't too much comedy You must not have watched the movie then. There were far more jokes in Venom than there are in your average MCU film. Hint: Just because the movie has a dark color palette doesn't mean it's a serious movie. |

10/10 better than any MCU movie.
That's my tentative rating. It may change once I see the flick.

I gave it a 6/10, which I was happy with. I heard the movie was Catwoman bad, but it really was pretty enjoyable. If course, some of the writing was terrible and the jokes seriously cringeworthy, but the Venom character was awesome and I had fun watching it, especially the second half. It was MUCH better than I thought it would be.

Hmm. Interesting experience this movie. The first 2/3rds I really enjoyed, especially all interaction and build-up between Venom and Eddy. It border-lined on too goofy, but for the most part it was fun and had an element of uniqueness to it.
The last act though is where it fell apart. Bland, painfully predictable, and at the end it all felt entirely pointless. Not every Marvel movie needs an epic ending, but even the seeming character development regressed.
I think I can still give it a 5.5/10 or 6/10, but just about.

Good Lord, that was horrible.
I gave it a 0, if only to help pull down the average.
