‘Venom: The Last Dance’ IMDb and RT Scores Are Here & It’s Not Looking Good for Tom Hardy’s “Last” Run as Eddie Brock

by

As a long-time comic book fan and Tom Hardy enthusiast, I must admit I’ve been looking forward to ‘Venom: The Last Dance’. However, the recent reviews have left me feeling rather apprehensive. With a “Rotten” rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an underwhelming 6.3 on IMDb, it seems that this may not be the grand finale we were hoping for.

‘The final installment of the Venom series, titled “Venom: The Last Dance”, is set to hit screens globally this coming Friday. Marking its conclusion, this film will also be the end of Tom Hardy’s portrayal of the character.’

In the upcoming movie, we can anticipate some crucial storylines may be subtly indicated, particularly focusing on the character Knull. Despite Knull not being the central antagonist in this film and likely having limited screen time, the director has hinted that there might be a more significant part for him in future installments.

Just lately, I’ve delved into the initial responses on social media about the latest movie release. It seems that the early previews have left critics with a bit of a split opinion. From what I’ve gathered so far, the film is quite enjoyable, but it appears to be grappling with the same issues that plagued the first two installments.

Since then, the review restriction has been lifted and, as of now, ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ has garnered 68 reviews, earning a collective rating of “Rotten.” This suggests that the movie currently has an approval rate of only 38%, which is quite poor. However, please note that the audience score won’t be revealed until Friday.

The movie’s standing on IMDb isn’t improving, as indicated by 1,200 ratings and a 6.3 score. This wasn’t entirely unexpected, but the expectation was that Knull’s presence would elevate it significantly. However, with Marcel suggesting that fans will have to wait a while before they can follow Knull’s story, some of the excitement may have been dampened.

Here are some of the reviews:

Too moronic for it to earn the emotional weight it clearly wants to project.

Peter Gray – The AU Review

Tom Hardy’s captivating dual performance consistently shines within the film series, while other aspects fall short, leaving room for improvement, particularly regarding the climax and the character of Knull. [Spanish review summary follows]

Fico Cangiano – CineXpres

A mind-numbing, tiresome, and monotonous chaos lacking sufficient humor or excitement, marred by inconsistent editing.

Avi Offer – NYC Guru

As a gamer, I’d say this game is a visual feast despite being overloaded with features, yet it manages to keep things surprisingly straightforward. It sometimes feels less like a well-crafted experience and more like a playground for the creators to showcase their crazy, cool ideas.

Anthony O’Connor – FILMINK Australia

In a more engaging rephrase, let me suggest this: Despite my hopes that “The Last Dance” would scale back its grandiose save-the-world narrative and CGI, I yearned for it to delve deeper into the powerful duality of Hardy’s acting performance.

Jake Coyle – Associated Press

The Last Dance” embraces the ridiculousness of its oddball, incongruous partner dynamics, it can be incredibly fun to watch. Regrettably, this doesn’t occur as frequently as desired.

Christy Lemire – RogerEgbert.com

This pattern repeats across almost all reviews. Yikes.
