Venom is one of the more interesting Marvel characters because he has different sides. He's like a hero and villain, a man and a monster in the same package, so you never know what to expect.

First of all: Tom Hardy makes this movie. He's great cast for the Eddie Brock role. Also how the character is written works really well. There's a lot of humor in how Eddie interacts with the Venom symbiote thing. You could argue if there's even too much of the comedy element but I think it works and makes the movie more unique in the superhero genre which often takes itself too seriously or tries to rely on bad one-liners.

The special effects, well, I guess "ok" for this type of thing. The Venom "suit" looks kind of cool but I'm just not fan of too much digital effects, and I felt like the human acting was better than the action scenes.

Not the best Marvel movie but better than most of the Avengers-related stuff. I might want to wach it again at some point but not anytime soon.
