Tom Hardy does a fantastic job
Venom is an interesting and fun character
The plot is fairly classic for this type of movie; nothing good or bad about it
The special effects are great - I loved the transformation scenes.
Overall, I recommend it if you like the genre, want to have a good time with a dose of laughters and aren't overly hard to please.

El problema con las peliculas de super heroes es que siguen siempre tienen que seguir el protocolo de complacer a la productora, y la libertidad creativa se va a la ******, que no puede ser muy gore, que no puede tener demasiadas referencias por que la gente se pierde, que tiene que tener humor, que tiene que haber una mujer, y que debe haber escenas provocativas, todos los cliches habidos y por haber, todo para complecer al minimo comun denominador social

I would have been really happy to see an R version.
The only gripe I had was the villain, the doctor was over the top for my taste and not really what I felt was someone to fear. He was more of a wimpy dick to help explain

What do critics play? Are they bought? It's not a bad movie. It doesn't respect the origin of the symbiote suit as in comics, but it's a lesser evil since all superhero movies do the same thing. Weak Villain. Action and Fun. Critics go home plz!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "SPOILER ALERT"

As Marvel movies go, this is a solid 8. Tom Hardy nails the part, fans of the Venom cartoon will recognize both Brock and the Venom Symbiote, and the Anti Hero humor of the cartoons have been very nicely translated to the silver screen. I dont usually like Marvel Flicks that much, but this one brought back my days as a regular buyer of everything Venom. Allthough its not the original origins story, it does fit seamlessly into the franchise. My only beef was with Carnage. I dont know why the **** they decided to recruit a hasbeen actor and stick a silly wig on him for the obligatory credits extra scene. It felt so off it was almost comedic in it self.

I was also aware that the movie had issues with not having Spiderman in it, seeing that Venom is a dark version of Spiderman and Spiderman is an essential character in the original story. I was also aware that this movie was about a black jelly creature from space. Going in I had relatively low expectations and a bottle of Vodka. Some critics have complained about an inconsistent tone in this, a move about black jelly from space. Did anyone go to see this movie to measure the consistency of it's tone, and feel dissatisfied because there were both scary scenes and jokes? I think some of the critics had unreasonable expectations of what is essentially a B-Movie with a big budget. The space jelly is not great CGI but, who is to say what space jelly looks like, maybe it looks like CGI? It took me out of the movie the first time I saw it but I was OK with it by the end. The main antagonist is overshadowed by one of the most selfish and nasty girlfriends in history, I was hooked to see whether Eddie would retaliate to her insensitive actions and wondered if she was going to be revealed as a supervillain herself. What makes this movie good is Tom Hardy's performance as the only two characters that matter in this movie. Brock and Venom have distinct, compelling characters and there is a subtle but clever merging of personalities as they spend time together. A large portion of the movie explores their relationship and this is a real strength. Hardy joked that his best part of the movie was everything that was cut from the movie, I wonder if there will be an R rated cut of this? I would love to see more and hope that the teased sequels happen. If you want to see a movie in which alien slime controls Tom Hardy's brain, if that appeals to you, then you will really like this movie. If you think it is far fetched or silly, maybe this is not the movie for you. Expand

The critics aren't totally wrong however... it is noisy, a little messy, probably cut up incorrectly due to behind the scenes issues and should have been released with a 'R' rating.... but despite this, Venom is a cool anti-hero and that pulp story still packs lots of fun. If you can ignore its flaws, it's a good time. Expand

An awesome movie about a supervillian from another planet. The director is Ruben Fleischer, who is director of popular TV Show ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’. The main role was playing by Tom Hardy.

Eddie Brock is authoritative journalist, and he going to expose famous businessman Carlton Drake. But his influence is stronger and main character lost his job. Eddie doesn’t give up and penetrates to Carlton’s office and find a symboit called Venom. All symboit from other planet and they are need hosts to exist normally. Eddie becomes a host for Venom and together they are doing some supervillian’s things.

I really liked Tom Hardy’s act, the cast in this film is awesome. Special effects and computer graphics are great and realistic. Venom, as it turned out, is really funny guy, but sometimes he eats heads. The script could be better, it very simple, but some dialogs are cool.

In general, I’d recommend this film, if you want to see a good cast, cool computer graphics and Tom Hardy’s face.

I enjoyed 'Venom', in short. Tom Hardy is one of my favourite actors and I thoroughly enjoyed his showing here as the titular character. The bonkers nature of the story, if not perfect at all, is very entertaining to watch unfold. I also found the pacing and special effects to be more than solid. Looking forward to checking out the sequel.

TomThis movie has some salvageable parts. Eddie Brock looks like he just woke up from the beginning of the movie when he's a successful reporter to the end of the movie where he's possessed by a parasite that makes him devour human flesh. Tom Hardy does a good job with a terrible script, and his dialogue to Venom become one of the few highlights in the film. The worst part is the performance from Reid Scott. It was a completely ham fisted and corny performance with a terrible script. Eddie's girlfriend also had some very weak performance.

The movie is really violent for a pg-13 film, the death scene of a homeless person who was infected with a parasite was actually pretty disturbing, Venom/Eddie literally eats police officer's heads.. It's a strange but interesting movie and I hope they have a chance to rectify some of the mistakes and make the sequel.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. All in all a perfectly okay superhero movie, and in this age when anything outside of the MCU is hit or miss, that gets a kudos. But there's an issue here with the potential to ruin the future of the franchise...

Here's what I liked: the classic Venom banter... the effects were a bit ropy but clean, especially during this one scene that had no business being visually decipherable... awesome car chase... the fact that it made me forget the total, permanent absence of Spiderman "in this universe."

Here's what I didn't like: it could (should?) have run an extra 20-30 minutes... and this movie had no right to be as utterly bloodless as it was (except for the obligatory heroic near-fatal wound.) **spoiler alert** To completely shun the color red in a movie where aliens wield giant f*^&-me battleaxe arms and people get their heads bitten off is, dare I say, a true feat of artlessness. This movie would have been a near ten if it wasn't so afraid to be what it was. I f*%&ing loved seeing Woody Harrelson with red hair in the post-creds... However, again, I have instant reservations about seeing Cletus Kasady in a franchise that flinches at showing actual carnage. If they even try it, the sequel will be a spectacular failure.

Don't wimp out on us now, Sony. You have a chance to really do something special with what you're teasing here. Just go for that R like you mean it!

A bit too short with a kind of lackluster villain, and you can clearly tell this should've been rated R. But Tom Hardy is absolutely fantastic and the film overall is a lot of fun. Hopefully we get an unrated edition when it comes to Blu-ray.

It does affect some of the character development along the story pace thus lessening the potential of what the symbiote-human threat could have implied. The Eddie Brock - Venom relationship is the best thing that works for this movie resting completely on its shoulders to rise on many occassions as a classic piece of entertainment for fans. This aspect alone makes the movie even a second time watch for Venom fans too. Trust me , the tonal mess to nurture the PG-13 audience is what holds the potential back. A slight concern might be there for VFX but that does not break the movie at all one bit. Forget that aspect and you are clearly in for a 112 minute fun ride. Oh yes, the post credit scenes are also worth watching. Expand

Sure, the pacing at times can be jarring, and the decision by which Venom becomes an Antihero rather than a villain is understandably vague, but I'd like to think of this movie as thus; Parasyte got away with largely the same story as this and was praised up and down, but what Parasyte has that Venom lacks is the human element; Eddie did not have the same sort of realizations about life and mortality as Satou had in Parasyte, the closest thing we had was Eddie's apology to Ann and the following events that took place because of it; In these interpersonal moments that litter the film (which is a good thing), you see the true chemistry between Eddie and Venom unfold. Those said moments are what make the film memorable, far more than the final battle or the police chase; The mundane, almost wacky bond Eddie and Venom share as they learn to live with one another.

Yet Sony Picturrs has more movies like it planned. Kraven the Hunter and Black Cat, without Spider-Man.

Apparently, there is nothing I like that the critics do not hate, and vice versa. I was very nearly prepared to give this film an 8 simply because I expected one and all to rate it a 10, or maybe a 1000. Clearly, I should've known.

Having seen Hellboy (Ron Perlman), and Deadpool 1 & 2, and Antman (both of them), and now Venom, I have to say that these comic superhero flicks are much easier to take, and more entertaining, than the spandex flicks which take themselves seriously. It's a little like watching yet another John McClane actioner. Without the humor, the sarcasm, the irony, I start yawning and checking the elapsed time in hopes it'll soon be over.

The effects are fine. The action sequences run a little long at times, but not so long that I'm tempted to sledgehammer my DVD player. I wouldn't say that there are any Oscar-worthy performances here, but everybody gets the job done. And it was interesting to see the current boyfriend of the former love interest actually taking a role of some significance in the unfolding of the plot.

Technically, I'll give Venom a [7.5]. It was better than just OK, though I don't feel it's quite worth an [8]. Admittedly, it came close.

The story follows journalist Brock (Tom Hardy) gaining superpowers after being bound to an alien symbiote whose species plans to invade Earth.

I love complicated main characters with good and evil sides to their personality or agendas. In this movie, it is the righteous Brock who believes in uncovering the truth, even if it means going up against the rich and influential figures, without fear of the consequences. This point alone makes me like the character a great deal. Exuding fearlessness in the name of righteousness and truth is undeniably a very admirable trait in a meaningful purpose.

When Brock gets infected with the symbiote parasite later, it gives him the power to stand up against the villainous force he has been fighting against morally. Though the idea isn't entirely original, it is nevertheless thrilling and gratifying to see a character you care about (yes, at the point where he got infected), to be able to kick asses in the most thrilling fashion. The parasite itself being not entirely benign, even violent and carnivorous against humans, makes their eventual physical and emotional bonding, a drooling, heart tingling, eye candy treat to savour.

Tom Hardy puts up a very charismatic performance with his genuine, natural, light hearted humorous lines that can be heard throughout the film. Not a moment of cheesiness. A big thumb up for this!

Why only a '7' for this movie? I would say the villain could be improved in terms of depth. Maybe if more were known about his past would be good. Making people care about characters including villains is one of the essentials to a good film.
The story, though pretty decent, is not that amazing. The plots aren't that unpredictable. Some unexpected twists would really be nice. I feel that the film is a bit reliant on the amazing action chorography to make up for that. But still it is a crucial missing element that brings down the movie by at least half a notch.

Verdict: Watch this movie!

Only complaint is the villain is a little boring.... not a problem with Riz, just the character is nothing more than Evil Doc That Thinks he’s God. Tad cliched.

CGI is excellent, movie is great for 13 and up, but there are several S bombs and one F bomb. If you or your kids like the recent X-men movies, they’ll LOVE Venom.

I jump on the "better than I expected" train: I liked it and I don't understand all the hate.
There is humor that is not excessive (fewer jokes than Ragnarock or Suicide Squad for example), there is violence and action in the right amount...almost no gore but Eddie eat people and you can feel the punches during fights...it's not a slasher movie and does not need to be, almost no abused slow motion action sequences, main baddie isn't memorable but it does a good job in being the bad guy viewers will hate, right length, it has quotes and references from comic book (4 example dialogue between Venom and Eddie, aftercredit surprise, lethal protector comics quotes and so on) .
This Venom is a much much much better one than the one in Spiderman 3: It is a big guy, use tenacles and morphing attributes, Symbiote is merciless-dangerous and have an "alien" mind and morality. Negative aspects are: Plot is predictable, there is no trace of Spiderman whatsoever, Venom "suit up" a little late in the movie...but, apart form spidey absence, they aren't a big deal .
I hope for a sequel.

Again Hardy is good as Venom so I have hope the sequels will flesh things out a bit and they take some lessons away from this.

Venom is a bit of a mishmash of good and bad ideas, but ultimately I was entertained.

Odd attempt at a New York accent aside, Tom Hardy was pretty likable as down-on-his-luck reporter Eddie Brock. The chemistry between him and Venom, an alien symbiote, is surprisingly good considering that half the time Venom is just a voice in Brock's head. Heck, the inhuman, cannibalistic creature is rather charming and funny.

Venom looks great too. I was worried, because the original comic design wasn't the easiest thing to adapt to live-action, but they really nailed it here. Venom is this 'roided goo creature with a shark mouth and he looks great. The action is inventive. Director Ruben Fleischer has a good eye for scenery and lighting; there's one scene in the woods that is particularly well-shot.

On the other hand, the film waits far too long to introduce Venom. There were a lot of parts that could've been cut or shortened. The main villain is super-weak, both in performance, dialogue, and general competence. Justice League's Steppenwolf, Thor: the Dark World's Malekith, and X-Men's Apocalypse were all stronger villains that this. Jenny Slate as a scientist is given nothing but trash dialogue. Whenever the scene is on these two, you're desperately wishing they'd go back to Brock.

This is isn't a perfect film, but I walked in expecting to be entertained and I was.

P.S. Be sure to stay through all the credits.
