Venom's weakness is not that it's a bad movie. It's not a good movie. It's not a bad movie. It's a movie and it's not as bad as Others would have you Believe. Tom Hardy (that is Tom Hardy running around doing stuff in the movie, right?), likes tater tots, and thankfully, so does Venom.

Venom's weaknesses are dog whistles and the occasional desire for deep mouth kisses (or is it deep-mouth kisses?). Venom's other weaknesses are that the animations are lame and whatever plot there might be gets lost in the complete absence of Spider-Man. It's ultimately for the best that the thin plot easily dissolves away for exciting zooms and slow-motion explosions, some of which also involve motorcycles and the streets of San Francisco.

Without having read any of the source material, Venom is really strong, talks like Tom Hardy wearing a Bane mask, is persistently hungry, and has an uncanny knack for sensing quiet love. Venom moves fast, talks slow, and has separation issues. Oh, and there are other aliens that are like Venom who live on Venom World, but they are not as nice as Venom. Add that all up and the final lesson is that we are all our own worst enemies, both personally and in the more general sense.

Check your brain at the door until there ain't no more Venom!
