SO disappointed

Rating: 4/10 (6 May 2007)

We went to see this yesterday with really high expectations having absolutely loved the first 2 movies, but ended up being SO disappointed this time. We felt that the script just flat out dragged and there was little to no character development, for example who was Eddie Brock and where did he come from and why/how did he become venom? There are way too many loose ends in this sequel and parts of it were just so slow. How sad is it to actually check your watch to see how much longer you have to sit there? The special effects were really good, especially in regards to the Sandman, but honestly, that's really the only good thing I can say about this movie. As we were leaving, we overheard people making remarks like "can I get my $11 back?" and "can I get that 2 hours back?". Oh, and little kids that just LOVE the Spiderman movies were really scared during this one. We were in line behind a guy with his little boy around 5 or 6 years old, and the little guy had watched 1 and 2 before coming to the movie and he was really upset when we were leaving. Dad said he thinks the little guy will have nightmares because of this one.
