Venom: The Last Dance Film SPOILER FILLED Film Review


In recent years Marvel movies have been very hit and miss with there sadly being alot mosses then there have been hits. With there last films Deadpool & Wolverine proving that Marvel Studios still knows how to to make a good movie but will that lesson carry on to there next film that Marvel have released well it's been released and you all just knew that I had to check this film the very first chance that I got and so then join me as I give you my SPOILLER FILLED review of the film that see Eddie and Venom go on the run with the film in question being called simply just "Venom: The Last Dance" enjoy.

The plot of this film is with Eddie and Venom still on the run thanks to the events of the previous film a new threat from Venoms home world approaches one which promises to being the end to the two best friends. Now then interms of what I personally thought '/ felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really bad with the best way to describe this films plot being weak as that's exactly what it is as this films plot is just really weak as it comes and goes so often and for so long that at times it really was hard to tell what the actual plot of this film even was in the first place but when the film does indeed focus on it's plot that's when we get some of the best moments in this film however the film instead doesn't rally focus a whole lot on it's plot with the film instead choosing to show us over things and other scenes that really aren't all that important to the actual plot of the film as a whole and are only there so that they can add them into the films trailer and that's really it with this films also being really rather entertaing and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is films producer Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock / Venom and Chiwetel Ejiofor as Rex Strickland. Also starring in this film is Juno Temple as Dr. Teddy Payne , Rhys Ifans as Martin Moon , Peggy Lu as Mrs. Chen , Alanna Ubach as Nova Moon , Stephen Graham as Patrick Mulligan / Toxin , Hala Finley as Echo , Clark Backo as Sadie Christmas and The Lord Of The Rings and The Batman star Andy Serkis as Knull.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With pretty much all of this films actors turning in some really good performance which is something that really isn't all that surprising as alot of this films actors are a bunch of really good actors in there own and as a result of that is the fact that they would of course turn in some good performances in this film also add in the fact that two of this films have been playing there characters for a a few years at this point as well and so they would of course know how best to perform there respective characters ad what kind of performance would best suit there respective characters in any given situation and while the acting from some of the films kid actors isn't all that great the films kid actors also aren't really annoying either with the acting that's in this very film not really being helped by the fact that this films script is just so bad as it gives none of this films actors absolutely noting to work with interms of what it is there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does effect the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.


Doing the CGI for this film is Digital Domain , Double Negative , Industrial Light & Magic and Rodeo FX. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI that'a actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad with alot of this films CGI being really good and while yes there some dodgy looking effects in this film this film does gave more good CGI in it then it does gave bad CGI in it but what lets the effects down quite alot is the fact that this film uses CGI at times when it really doesn't need need CGI with this film using CGI alot of the time just because they can do instead of using when they really need to which does make it painfully obvious when there using CGI as it's something that does stand out a mile when alot of the time it would have been better if they used practical effects as they will always age better then CGI will as while yes this films effects are indeed really top notch which is mostly due to the fact that this film does have alot of really good effects companies in it but they will be dated by the end of next year where as with practical effects they will never be dated as you can never beat really doing something for real on set.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!



There are a few extra characters in this film that aren't listed in the above casting list as they are spoilers but Juno Temple is also playing Agony and Clark Backo is also playing Lasher. With both of them being the superhero versions of there human characters with neither hero really playing that much into the plot of the film as both of them along with Toxin only rally play apart in the film during the films third act with them being off doing there own thing for the vast majority of the films running which makes you wonder why these characters were included in the film at all as there inclusion really could have been taken up by giving some of the films newer characters some actual character development instead of having them just by there for the sake of being there and having all of this films newer characters come across as being some really very one dimensional characters as all of this films characters have nothing to work with personality wise and that is something that really could have been fixed if they had the screen time that they so desperately needed to fully flesh out there characters and yet because of the fact that this films is really over stuffed with pointless characters that add nothing to the overall plot of the film when the more important characters that actually do play some sort role in the films plot are left hung out to dry and do next to nothing that's actually important to the plot of the film when it really should have been the other way around.

Back when the films first trailer was first being released people made a big deal about Venom becoming a horse. Well don't expect that horse to be in the movie for that long as the only scene in which it appears in the trailer is also the only scene in which it appears in the movie which just makes the scene feel like something that was shot just for the trailer and yet when people started talking about it the makers of this film most likely thought that they had to out it in there and yet at the same time tho it makes you wonder why the makers of this film didn't do something more with something that's just a really cool idea when the film could have done so many cool things with Venom as a horse and even that idea alone feels like it would be right at home in a comic book movie and yet because of the fact that this movie is afraid to embrace the fact that it's comic book movie some thing that the previous film loved doing then it makes it feel like a waste of a cool idea and it's going to be interesting seeing people talking about this movie this weekend when they come realise that the one thing that alot of them were really interested in seeing in this movie is also the one thing that has just one scene when in reality the makers of this film could have dine something more with that idea just by embracing the fact that it's a comic book movie and yet the films that really do embrace the fact that there a comic book movie like the original Spider-Man movie and Deadpool & Wolverine do nine times out of ten being some really good movies in there own right.


Marvel really does have a problem of creating good villains in there movies as Knull is a really bad villain. This is despite the fact that the trailers for the film made it look like that he was going to be playing a much bigger role in the plot of the film when in reality he barely appears in the film with him only having a very small handful of scenes in the finished cut of the film which is something that really does harm the character as it doesn't give him any time to get across not only what his plan his but it also means that he can't really get across his personality out either with him just coming across as bring villain who is only being evil for the sake of being evil and not because of the fact that he has any end goal in mind this is despite the fact he also appears in the films mid-credits scene to set up a future appearance in the SSU and when that scene comes up all it will do is make you wonder why this character is coming back because there's no reason for this character to e coming back because of the fact that he adds very little to actual plot of the film where as if you look at a character like Thanos or even Doctor Octopus for example both of whom are a bunch of really good villains and in the case of Doctor Octopus he has something tragic about his backstory which is something that doesn't effect his character moving forward in the film and with both characters having a clear end goal it makes those character really memorable characters where as with Knull there's nothing memorable about his character with his character going to be forgotten about by the end of the week.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty three minuets and fifty four seconds. Which is such a short running time for this film to have as this film really does have more then enough there interms of plot to really cover at the very least two hours and as a result of that is the fact that this film really should have bee alot longer then what it was as this film has so many characters that it needs to fit in and make relevant to the plot of the film as well as give alot of screen time to fully justify them being them there and give fully formed personalities to and the film really can't do that with that short of running time and given how shirt this film is it really does make you wonder if this short running time was mandated by Sony Pictures as they could fit in more screenings with a film that's under two hours without credits with enough victim of this films really short running time also being the fact that the death of Venom just doesn't feel justified as the film really does spend the time that it really needed to make that moment feel earned when that is something that should have felt earned more then anything else in the film as it's a key part of not only the films marketing but also the film as a whole and yet because of the fact that this film has this really short running time then the film has to rush from plot point to plot point at a rather unnatural pace but I really will admit that this very film really does gave some really bad pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is an action film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us un this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty the best part of this film. As it was where the film got to be the most fun and just embrace the fact that it's a comic book as we get to see Venom doing alot of crazy things with his powers and there only things that could only work in a comic book movie with the best action scene in the whole entire movie being third act fight between Venom , Agony , Lasher , Toxin and a random creature that's been hunting Venom down as it's really just plain fun seeing all of these Venom type heroes use all of there powers to take down this one creature all of which d make it a really fun if somewhat overstuffed action sequence as there are so many things going on plot wise in that action that it does make it hard to keep up with what's actually going on in the film and because of the fact that the film doesn't give you a reason to care for any of these characters when Venom does infact die you feel nothing as the film gave you no reason to care for him and want to see him succeed outside of the fact that he's the hero and that's really it but when this film does have a really good and fun filled action sequence it really is something that does stand out in this film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!


Overall this movie quite clearly isn't as good as the second film was but at the same time it's on par with what the film is ad with this film being the supposed ending for the Eddie Brock storyline it really is something that should have been alot better then what it ended it up being in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 5 .5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the mages that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the mages that I personally used in this very review from the official Sony's Spider-Man Universe fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images really from this very film being the really great the official Sony's Spider-Man Universe fandom wiki page this is really because of the fact that really all of the images that I really indeed got and really used from the really great the official Sony's Spider-man Universe fandom wiki page are all really high quality and in definition with really with all of the images that really are all currently up and really presently on the really great and the really solid the official Sony's Spider-Man Universe fandom wiki page really are all being really fairly high in quality and as well as them all really being fairly high in definition.
