Solid C movie. cheap mindless popcorn flick with some high points. Would have been unwatchable without Tom hardy. Actually enjoyed watching a stand alone without having a overhanging universe arch. Movie would have been ok except they used the one character who’s existence is based off another character and that’s unforgivable. Could have made a similar movie about Moon knight or cloak and dagger or night crawler, enrigon, Constantine, swamp thing , so many characters . Not venom , can’t say it was unenjoyable tho
