Hate with a passion

Rating: 1/10 (13 April 2010)

I loved the spiderman cartoons when I was a kid and it breaks my heart to see one of it's greatest villains, Venom, trashed like this. First of all bad choice of villains. Sandman was never that popular and lets face it wasn't well written as a character, all they did was give him a sick daughter to ensure that spidey wouldn't kill him. Harry as green goblin was an OK choice but so underused, amnesia wow thats original, why not have him as a constant threat in the background? That could have lead on to spidey needing more strength to beat him and cause him to use the black suit. Also the symbiote was meant to turn spidey evil, in previous versions (cartoons/comics) he almost killed someone because of it's influence, this version made him dance down the street like a drunk. And what was the catalyst for ripping of the suit? Hitting Mary Jane by accident, don't get me wrong thats a despicable thing to do but it didn't really give the impression that the suit was taking over him and why did he go to the bell tower to get rid of it? Like I said there was no indication that the suit was literally taking control of his body so he could have easily gone home and got rid of it there. Replace that idiotic montage of him dancing down the street and replace it with scenes of him being more violent with criminals, I know it's a family movie but still at least give a hint that the symbiote's turning him bad I would like to review venom as a character but he wasn't in it long enough to review. Next why have him loved by the city? Keep the constant pressure of hate form the bugle feeds his repressed aggression. I know it's a small point but it's a personal annoyance. To summarise; I hate hate hate this movie don't watch it.
