Venom: The Last Dance is the final instalment of the Venom trilogy. But is it as bad as people are saying? Yes and no.
Apparently this is the final time we will see Marvel Comics character, Venom.
Following Venom (2018) and Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021), starring Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock and Venom, alongside Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Rhys Ifans, Stephen Graham, Peggy Lu, Clark Backo, Alanna Ubach, & Andy Serkis.
So it has a solid cast, right?
The film premiered at the Regal Times Square theatre in New York City late last month. Being released the following week, receiving mixed reviews from critics & has grossed $194 million worldwide. That is as of today 3 November 2024.
I did say this was the last time we would see Venom on the big screen. However. ahead of the film's release in October 2024, Kelly Marcel said that while The Last Dance concludes with the story arc of Eddie Brock and Venom, it sets up the character Knull for future appearances within the SSU and is the beginning of the character's story.
While the film was intended as the conclusion of the Venom trilogy, Hardy expressed interest in reprising his role in the future and having his character cross over with Spider-Man, saying "never say never".
So what's good about the film? The run time, a superhero under two hours, brilliant! The action scenes were great! The story as well did move along very well too. You could tell it was coming to an end of the series and it times it did rush there. However at least it wasn't a drawn out bore fest.
The bad. It was a bit all of the shop. We jump around from one character to another. The dialogue is shit.
But overall it was not the worst superhero film of all time.
I will pass this one as the run time won me over. No 3 hour super shit hero film here. 2.5 Stars
