Everything I saw my friends say about Venom on social media was spot-on.
From the use of Eminem on the soundtrack to Tom Hardy’s EVERYTHING, Venom feels like it fell into a timewarp right before it was originally supposed to air in 2004 and fourteen years later, we got it.
This movie appeals to my inner:
- superhero fan
- anti-hero stan
- monster fucker
- cannibalism (in fiction) fancier
Seriously, it has something for everyone and it’s entertaining to boot.
Venom is NOT a serious superhero movie even when it tries to be a couple of times. It’s an action-comedy that’s more about Eddie Brock’s fall from grace and how he and Venom develop together than anything else. Sure, Riz Ahmed is in the film playing Carlton Drake, a scientist with eugenicist dreams, and Michelle Williams is Eddie’s long-suffering ex-girlfriend Anne, but the movie isn’t really about them.
It’s about two losers realizing that they literally can’t live without each other and falling in love.
