    Venom: The Last Dance

    Honestly idek how to rate this it was like the stupidest movie I’ve ever seen but also tons of fun. I got kinda emotional more than once and laughed a little. Some lines were extremely stupid, the plot was stupid. But it seemed to be self-aware of that. 

    Can’t decide on a star rating. Going in my Fun-Bad List.

    This film could not decide whether to be an action thriller or small-town drama. It had a great setting and music but a dodgy script with generic cop-outs. Characters weren’t nearly developed enough for me to care about moments that might have been very emotional otherwise. There’s probably a great film in here somewhere, but I don’t know that it worked for me.

    This is one of those films where anything less than five stars is doing it a disservice.

    Such a brilliant film. It delivers on every level. I really appreciate when a script doesn’t assume its audience is dumb, because the way they present this story is so incredibly clever. The entire movie feels like one huge buildup to something we never quite get. And hey, that’s okay isn’t it? Because that’s life. This film does not pull any punches or…

    That cry of terror will actually be embedded in my brain for a long time. Phenomenal performances and gut wrenching emotional themes that will definitely stick with you. What a masterful film.
