Vem hade trott att Sonys Venom-rulle (som går upp på bio nu på fredag) skulle bli något annat än murrig geggsoppa? Inte vi här på Gamereactor i alla fall med tanke på hur trötta samtliga trailers sett ut. Nu har filmens visats för amerikanska kritiker (och "insiders" / "influencers") och även om vissa marknadsför filmen hejvilt är de flesta av åsikterna ytterst negativa. Det handlar tydligen om en riktig soppa till actionfilm.
"Tom Hardy's performance in Venom is either Johnny Depp in the first PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN or Chris Klein in STREET FIGHTER: THE LEGEND OF CHUN-LI. Either way, it's not boring."
"Action-sequences and Eddie and Venom's odd relationship are the highlights of #Venom but if Sony wants to move forward with a universe, it needs to just keep the few parts that work and scrap the large portion which doesnt."
"Significant chunks of Venom don't work *at all* but there is some serious charm to the Eddie/Venom relationship."
"Sorry to say that Venom is pretty much a complete failure - a tonal mess that feels 15 years old, ignoring the storytelling strides that the superhero genre has made in recent years."
"Venom wasn't as bad as everyone was saying it was going to be. Tom Hardy is and always will be a great actor, and I laughed a lot — but I'm not sure whether that was intentional or not."
