Venom (2018) Review



  Failed reporter Eddie Brock loses his job and his girlfriend after an interview with Carlton Drake. Eddie gets bonded with an alien symbiote after looking for evidence against Drake, now it's up to Brock and his symbiote Venom to save the world.

  Okay first off such a spectacular way of giving this beloved Marvel character a film treatment. Ruben Fleischer really executed this film as it's not connected to the Spider-Man films, Ruben did so well giving this character a brand new take with story and origin.

  Tom Hardy was such an amazing choice to play this role. Hardy is really good at playing characters weather it's Hero or Villain, him playing Eddie Brock was well done as Brock can be either interpreted as either a total loser that loss his job or as a real jerk with other people. Hardy's take on Venom was executed as he made his Venom funny and scary Hardy didn't play the character using only his body movement's he used his voice as well as he used his vocals with a bit of help with sound technology.

  Small detail problem but one that makes sense is Venoms symbol. In the comics Venoms origins starts with Spider-Man #252 (1984) as he was an alien costume that was attached to Spider-Man this ends up infecting Peter Parker slowly turning Parker angry and evil, Parker decides to tear off the symbiote which picks a new host this being Eddie Brock. another detail missing here is in the comics due to the symbiote adapting some altered features from Spider-Man's suit. when Eddie Brock became the host his costume took Spider-Man's symbol, like I said before small missing details but they do make sense as this universe has no Spider-Man.

  I love this film gives a funny picture to this character instead of a serious tone to it. I think of venom for what he is in the comics I don’t think I can take him as a funny character and I love the character has a different tone.

  I hate that they didn’t do too much for the final battle it seemed too quick and an easy villain. Riot/Carlton Drake had the best design for a villain but his fight was quick and done.

  I also didn’t like the way they treat Eddie Brock they make him weak and tho it makes sense as Venom makes him strong still they don’t make him embrace too much of the symbiote instead he fears it most of the film.

  Other than that I’m in love with this film and I’m excited for Carnage in the upcoming film. 

WE ARE VENOM!!!

   The Batman (2022) Review   Plot and Plot Elements: Batman must face an unknown masked serial killer who's killing the corrupt and leaving cryptic puzzles for the Batman,  Batman must put the pieces and answers together whilst causing Bruce Wayne and Batman to discover horrible lies within his family.   What Drove Reeves to direct "The Batman"?    Reeves told New York Times " I wanted to fight against any sense that Batman would remain static." he continued with " I wanted the stakes of the story to challenge him in a way that shook him to his core. He has to change."   What Reeves is saying is that after a long wait and Nolan's "The Dark Knight Rises" being the last stand alone and making the 80 year old character abandoned to his stand alone film's for a "static" decade he wanted to bring Batman back to the screen.   Was Pattinson the fit: (Robert Pattinson) Wow I really have a lot to say about this man's performance

TENET (2020) Review

  A secret agent is sent on a mission that will prevent a possible World War III. After being given word of an extraordinary special uranium is found to be able to reverse time, "Protagonist" must travel backward in time to stop the people who have this new weapon and alter events that will end the world. Christopher Nolan directs another thrilling movie with amazing music, action and crazy/special affects. This movie was amazing to watch as it gave me the same viewing experience I got from "inception"(2010) with off the walls "stunning" visual affects and very cohesive music written by Ludwig Goransson, I loved the amount of action and stunts done, I especially loved they casted John David Washington we was very good at his role. Thing I loved about this movie was that it involved a lot of science and twists just like Inception. It was filled was stunning affects and I loved the music as it fit in with the action, this movie was hard to understand as it’s

And he’s all for another adventure with the loved headmaster and wizard Albus Dumbledore, but what’s Dumbledore’s secrets?    Yes that’s right I’m asking you yes you! I’m not a reader of Harry Potter but I can love the fan loved films. I’m definitely excited for this new adventure!   But my question is! What’s Dumbledore hiding?  I don’t know this man’s secrets that probably were never spoke of in J.K Rowlings original Harry Potter books, besides his future agenda for Harry against Voldemort Or that he had a childhood love interest with our last seen villain Grindelwald… wait what!!! Yes our heroic headmaster was in a relationship with a villain.    Last time we saw the man he was played in a fantastic way by Jude Law in Fantastic Beast: The Crimes of Grindelwald. This gave an intense ending!    But let’
