Required Viewing Movies: Review

Strengths

Venom offers a refreshingly offbeat take on the superhero genre. Tom Hardy shines as Eddie Brock, a flawed protagonist wrestling with both internal and external demons. 

His energetic performance perfectly captures Eddie’s descent into chaotic fun as he navigates his newfound powers with the help of the sardonic and snack-loving Venom. 

The banter between Eddie and Venom provides a surprising amount of humor, keeping the film entertaining even during slower moments.

Venom is a fun and engaging popcorn flick. The charismatic performances and odd-couple dynamic between Eddie and Venom elevate the film above its generic plot.

Weaknesses

The plot itself is fairly standard superhero fare, with a somewhat predictable villain and familiar themes of good versus evil. 

Additionally, the film’s PG-13 rating holds back from fully embracing the violent nature of the source material and Venom’s character.

Why Venom is Required Viewing

While Venom won’t redefine the superhero genre, it offers a unique and entertaining experience. 

Tom Hardy’s exceptional performance and the film’s unexpected humor make it a worthwhile watch, especially for fans of offbeat superhero stories.
