The highly anticipated Venom had its premiere this Monday night in Los Angeles. Some aspects of the film were appreciated, others were widely criticized.
Venom does not escape the debacle
Indeed, the first returns were not those expected. Despite very good points mentioned, the film of the Symbiote seems not to be spared by bad reviews. Some fans had predicted that it would be a real disappointment, like the Venom in Spiderman 3. Tom Hardy's excellent performance therefore seems not to be enough.
This film is indeed assimilated to failures such as Catwoman, The Fantastic 4 and Hulk as specified by the site actuciné.com.
