Not What I Expected....... But...... Tom Hardy is a very talented actor, and he did the best he could with his character. But as a Marvel fan who thinks Marvel movies are becoming repetitive, it was nice to watch something different other than the regular super hero movie. Now, they tried their hand at comedy which was almost equally a hit and a miss. There are also a few plot holes, in my opinion. It shouldn't be rated PG-13 either, because Venom is a beast and viscious. It should've been rated R like Deadpool and Logan. The movie feels restricted simply because of that PG-13 rating. I also think it would've been better if they had put Venom in a Spider-man movie again before making it solo. In conclusion I give it a 7, because I still enjoyed it despite what I mentioned before. Not a great run for the first movie, but maybe they'll get there.
