Overview
Investigative journalist Eddie Brock attempts a comeback following a scandal, but accidentally becomes the host of Venom, a violent, super powerful alien symbiote. Soon, he must rely on his newfound powers to protect the world from a shadowy organization looking for a symbiote of their own.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleefully trashy buddy-comedy wrapped in superhero action, where an out-of-work reporter and his sarcastic alien parasite learn to coexist through chaos and violence. It's lurid, loud, and unapologetically fun in its refusal to take itself seriously.

Reviews
Sometimes Venom looks like Beetlejuice when Beetlejuice is a snake.
I don't really like this movie overall, but I would love a 20 minute supercut called Eddie and Venom's Best Moments. I'm sure it's on YouTube.
It's like the whole script existed, and then they went back to only the Eddie/Venom interactions and added jokes. It doesn't fit together, but those additions are the moments I like.
I’m 50/50 on Tom Hardy here. There are times where I think he is perfect, and then I don’t.
Not the worst movie I’ve seen. It’s about the only way you could of done a “Venom” story AND make him an actual hero, and it is certainly an improvement over the “Spider-Man 3” symbiote debacle.
