Film: Venom: The Last Dance Cast: Tom Hardy, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Stephen Graham, Peggy Lu, Alanna Ubach, Rhys Ifans, Clark Backo Director: Kelly Marcel Rating: 2.5/5 Runtime: 109 min The Marvel Comics character is back again in a sequel to Venom (2018) and Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021). It’s the fifth film in Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU), and is co-written by Hardy and directed by Kelly Marcel.
This film marks the directorial debut of Kelly Marcel, who wrote the first two Venom movies. If you did not like the earlier iterations, you probably won’t like this one either. The film is a rather messy buddy extravagance that as expected, doesn’t make any sense.
At 109 min runtime it isn’t a very long over-indulgence but it still manages to grate on your nerves at times. Tom Hardy gets back into groove playing goofy with his symbiotic shenanigans in this ‘Last Dance’, the third and supposedly final movie in the trilogy. The titular Marvel Comics villain-turned-antihero, Eddie Brock and Venom, his parasitic companion, are on the run as soldiers, scientists, other symbiotes, and an alien attempt to track them down.
Yeah...
turn your brains off for the last time...
After the events of ‘Let There Be Carnage’ Brock is hiding out in Mexico. But upon learning from TV news about his ‘wanted’ status in the US, he promptly decides to return to New York City..
. but instead wanders through the American southwest. Eddie obviously hasn’t managed to sort hi.
