Venom: Let There Be Carnage

Venom: Let There Be Carnage is a bold and brisk superhero story, unlike any other mainstream Hollywood film in the genre. It crams a heck of a lot of movie into an hour and a half, but it doesn’t feel like it needed to be longer. It just feels like we need more movies like it.

On its face, Venom 2 is a no-frills, rock-and-roll superhero flick that unashamedly swings for the fences when it comes to camp and cheese. Yet beneath those elements, it’s strangely about finding love and the intimacy of relationships, building on the rom-com core of the first movie.

If brevity is indeed the soul of wit, at a tidy 90 minutes, Venom: Let There Be Carnage is on point for what it largely is - a violently slapstick domestic sitcom.

Venom: Let There be Crazy, Stupid Love isn’t a great movie, but it doesn’t matter because it’s just big, dumb, romantic fun.

Venom may not have realized it was a so-bad-it’s-good cult classic, but Let There Be Carnage is striving to maintain that status from minute one.

Andy Serkis directed. Serkis, who’s given so many memorable acting performances (Gollum! Caesar the chimpanzee!), doesn’t elicit any here. The great cinematographer Robert Richardson shot the movie, which makes its lack of visual texture all the more dispiriting.

To say Venom: Let There Be Carnage is not worth seeing is not enough. It’s not worth admitting into your life, even as an option. You’ve read a review of it. That’s enough. Now, never think of it again for the rest of your life.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage" is a fun and fast superhero movie. It's short, only 90 minutes, but still full of exciting action and silly moments. The movie is about Venom and his wild adventures, but it also has a sweet story about friendship and love. It’s not perfect, but if you like action, laughs, and a little bit of craziness, this movie is a great choice!

Meh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Venom: Let There Be Carnage," was... A lot like the first movie...... Which means it was just O.K.: They definitely delivered on the Venom vs Carnage fight, but that was about it. Shriek felt nonexistent throughout most of the film, and Woody Harrelson playing the role of Carnage felt like a waste of his talents. Tom Hardy breathed tons of life into this film and it would have **** without him (much like the first one). This is another “meh” Marvel movie that exists almost exclusively for the mid-credits reveal (Which was pretty cool)

Venom: Let There Be Carnage made it onto the "New Gen" category of movies. It is utterly boring, childish, and the story is either made by a kid, or an AI. I'm 25 minute in the movie, and instead of watching I'm writing a review and playing chess. Venom just sprayed ketchup on Eddie...
