Currently sitting at 76% on rottentomatoes, compared to the 30ish% of the original.

I thought the original was ok. I had written this one off but may check it out

oh wow really..

edit: Oh. 53 at metacritic.

Most people liked the first venom movie regardless of critics trashing it.

There is something good in all seeming failures. You are not to see that now. Time will reveal it. Be patient.

Is it? The reviews I have seen say it is eh. The end fight scene is good, but everything leading up to it is meh and the movie really needs to be rated R.

I didn't think it was bad but it felt like a low tier MCU movie, like hulk or thor the dark world but having one of the most popular marvel characters. I just think a character of his level deserves better movies. Maybe he has it now

That seems to be the general opinion but your enjoyment of everything will depend on how much you enjoy the eddie/venom dynamic. In the first movie it was good, everything else was bad

It doesn't work as a ranking system but I find I rarely like anything that is rotten. Tbh I can't think of anything that is rotten that I have liked...there's plenty of well rated stuff that is rotten imo

How the hell do you make a Carnage movie and it not be rated R?

I feel like the original venom was in the worst zone, wanted an R rating and wanted the MCU appeal but got neither

But ended up being super successful because China randomly loved it

So, full confession, I watched Venom a couple years ago and literally can't remember any of it whatsoever.

Like, he was on a motorcycle...I think he defused a bomb or something at some point...?

I simply don't believe that a PG-13 Venom and Carnage movie can be good or worth watching

The only good thing is they changed Kasady's look away from the evil Ronald McDonald thing he had going in the first movie.

It was a decent fun movie, I feel like people are only scoring it highly because of the credit scene.

Probably the reason it took so long to get a carnage movie.

It's very very difficult to.

I dunno if Venom will be in NWH, since there's already enough going on in that movie as it is, so I feel like Spidey will be in Venom 3.

Thats probably more likely actually.

Sony is making their own cinematic universe with Venom, Morbius, etc so they must be including Holland Spidey now. Id love to see Garfield get one more shot at it though, I feel like his version would have fit well with Hardys Venom.

Guarantee NWH has multiple credit scenes, one tied to his next MCU adventure and one tied to the Sonyverse

Was it ever that good? The RT percentage doesn't mean much at all. The score was 5.6/10 the last time I checked and that isn't reviewing so well.

I would absolutely love seeing more Garfield Spidey. I thought he had so much potential we never really got see fully realized.

does that mean Doc Oc & Green Goblin are now part of the MCU?

I guess so. If they are in No Way Home and that is an MCU movie

Why don't rotten tomato ratings matter? I thought they only take critic and people who actually saw the movies compared to other websites where anyone can give it a bad or good review that it dont deserve

Eh..... Lets see what they do. Beefy Dafoe could be intriguing.

Doc Ock needs to not be fighting so much, or see a serious redesign. For example: Ultimate Octopus. They didnt have to change the narrative even, just giving him a more muscular physique was enough to fix the character at the time & make him seem realistic. We just assumed he was mutated or otherwise somehow unusually strong, or powered by nanomachines from the arms.

original Ock is just some regular guy getting swung every which way by a machine around his waist, and it just doesnt make sense. At the end of the day, with the speeds & Gs & impacts required to melee with Spiderman, it would have to either be a very quick fight or Doc Ock would require a suit or something to protect him,........

Hes Supermans face levels of ridiculous. Great villain but I need more than Alfred Molina to suspend my disbelief.

All they have to do is depict Spiderman punching him in the face (with the Octopus unphased), and give Doc some explanatory one-liner to explain his strength, and it would be fine. You could even kill two birds & end this on a beat with Spiderman quipping that he Did pull the punch, to be fair

Cause the RT percentage is just if they thought it was better than average or not, not the average score.
