This is a review for VENOM

Rating: 5/10 (22 May 2007)

Again I would like to remind you this isn't so much of a review of the movie itself but for how they did Venom in the movie.
First off I'll say the things they got right with Venom. His suit was really cool, I liked how they made it look almost just like the comics (with the exception of the webbing patterns, but that didn't really matter), and I liked how they gave him that sarcastic dark comedic nature when he was Venom, that he always has. (such as when he says "my Spidey sense is tingling, and I think you know what that means...") Venom without his dark humor is not a good Venom at all, so I give props to that. Also I liked the touch of making his webbing black, AND get this, he even shot web from the top of his hand, which was a nice detail. The way they did the bell tower was also pretty good, and fairly close to the comics.
The bad stuff about Venom is that he didn't put up much of a fight against Spiderman, (which he can easily do in the comics, if not beat Spiderman, all Spiey has is sound, which he does end up using in the movie to beat Venom, but it was too fast) Also, Venom didn't talk much he mostly just screeched a lot like a dinosaur all the time, which is more of a carnage thing if you ask me. The far worst aspect of Venom though was his voice. He is supposed to sound like an awesome monster with a low type voice, in this he had a whiny teenage wanna be ninja turtle type voice. It was disturbing, because his voice was one of the best parts of him. Also, he din't refer to himself as "WE", instead using the term "I" for everything, and never even said his name. He was hardly in the move, too, and the fact that they killed eddie brock is a disgrace to the Venom name.
Overall they did some aspects cool, but mostly it was an insult to Venom fans.
