Kevin says Venom: The Last Dance kinda sucks!
Sony is desperately trying to keep its Spider-Man-adjacent properties alive this year with a third VENOM movie.
VENOM: THE LAST DANCE finds Eddie Brock and his symbiote on the lam while an immortal being from outer space is sending an army to search for Venom. Meanwhile, under a decommissioned Area 51, a group of scientists are tinkering with other alien symbiotes.
If you liked the first two VENOM movies, you should enjoy this one because it is entirely the same type of film. Unfortunately, those movies have all be sub-par superhero pulp that feel like they were stripped from the 90s.
A surprisingly good cast – including Tom Hardy, Juno Temple, and Chewitel Ejiofor – struggle to carry the silly script, which feels like it was written by a group of hyperactive children on a diet of sugar cereal and Pixy Stix.
Goofier than the later Thor movies with overdone goopy visual effects, this superhero flick is fine, but like the other two, could have been so much better.
VENOM: THE LAST DANCE gets two and a half alien blobs out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
