Eddie Brock is portrayed by Tom Hardy as having no redeeming features for the first third of the movie. Dishonest, lazy and untrustworthy are a small part of the litany of character defects - I get there is some sort of redemption arc, but this over painting is ridiculous and made me not care what happens to him after this. The villain (Riz Ahmed) should have tied him to the rail tracks to make sure we know he is evil enough because I really could not tell he is the antagonist! {/sarcasm}.
