Okay, Venom, is by all accounts a mediocre film from a cinematographic and media point of view. From the eyes of a Fanboy it may be nice or funny. That does not make it a GOOD movie. In any case, it makes it more fan service than a movie. And what is happening is just what happened with Bright and Suicide Squad, these are "nice" movies for the average moviegoer, but for critics and people who have some film or media training it is not a good production. And this is the reason why we have two scores for the movies, audience and critics (Yes, I'm saying the general audience tends to be stupid)

So in summary Venom IS NOT GOOD, in the best of cases it is a movie, nothing more than a sequence of images accompanied by sound

That's just my opinion, and I honestly think it's valid, because the people that told me Venom is good are the same people who like Transformers and Fast & Furious, which I guess is what the studio was going for, the mindless audience.
