I know what you'll say, "but this is an origins movie and so you'll get to see more of Eddie". Well, yeah, but the film focused on Eddie Brock's life way too much in the first hour. They might have well should have shown him pooping in his toilet (they probably did). I really didn't care much about him in all honesty, and much of the scenes of him at the beginning which dragged. Even Tom Hardy, who is a good actor, didn't really rivet me to his character.

I mean, Eddie Brock was never a famous or popular comic book character anyway. He is no Joker, Peter Parker, The Riddler or Bruce Wayne for that matter. Why would we need to sit down and watch Brock for like 50 minutes? I'm pretty sure most people came to watch this film to see Venom. And the film should have gotten on with it as quick as possible. But it just went on and on with Eddie Brock's apartment life.

And that pathetic villain, Carleton Drake. Not sure if it was the character or the guy portraying him. But I think it was a mix of the two. He was so unlikable and "uncool" for a villain. A try-hard, typical and cliched villain at best.

As soon as Venom appears and becomes more prominent, the film starts to get entertaining. I enjoyed Eddie's chemistry with his ex girlfriend Anne (Michelle Williams). I enjoyed her performance as well. Let's hope the sequel will be much better and, I believe, we would probably get to see more Venom.
