Ratings and reviews

I thought it's a step in a different direction than what we were used to with other mcu movies, it's fights are fast and hard hitting but all it's characters are actually humans with skill no special powers so it's a grounded film that is based around a key theme being family. The film is a prequel though which drastically lowers the stakes as we already know it's main character cannot die no matter what as she is alive in future installments, aside from that I found it is enjoyable

Good standalone movie though it could have ended on a high note. Some end moments were jarring and wrapped up in a hurry. The family dynamics and sweet banter were very entertaining,

decent but just like the first venom movie it felt kinda cheaply made and disney went against their contract with scarlet Johansen..... not cool disney... not cool at all
