VENOM is merely four days away, and the review embargo for the movie lifts later today. Before we get to read the full reviews for the movie the first reactions from critics and journalists who have seen the movie have hit social media. What did they have to say about the movie? Well, the people who got to see this movie before most everyone else seem to have walked out with mixed feelings on the movie. On the hand, people seemed to have found it entertaining, with bits between Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) and the symbiote being very entertaining, and Hardy giving an infectious, gonzo performance. But then, on the other hand, many are saying there are numerous elements that don’t work, and would be best for the filmmaker to avoid if they do get to make a sequel.
Ultimately, some of these reactions are saying if you shut off your brain and go in looking for a fun, weird comic book movie you're likely to have a good time. Oh, and apparently the end credits scene is just tops, so be sure to stick around until the end.
Check out some of the reactions below!
As always, we here at JoBlo endorse the Go See it For Yourself mode of thinking, meaning you should always check out the movie and make up your own mind. Reviews and reactions are fun to read in the same way it's fun to hear your friends' take on a movie but at the end of the day you always need to make up your own mind, and the only way to do that is to get your butt to the theater.
VENOM hits theaters October 5.
