This alien symbiote makes its way to Earth and ends up being studied along with several other samples in a laboratory. Eddie Brock, a journalist in search of scandal, wants to test the company that uses human subjects to achieve what they are capable of and, long story short, the symbiote links with it. Together they create a hybrid creature called Venom. His tastes include chocolate, creating chaos, licking his chops with a long reptilian tongue, making non-Venom Eddie’s life hell, and eating delicious human brains. Instead, he hates rudeness, evil symbiotes and sonic explosions.
In the comics Venom was one of the biggest villains Spider-Man (Same goes for the character’s first appearance in the movies, courtesy of Topher Grace and Spider-man 3). In the spin-off saga A spiderhe’s an anti-hero who balances the idea of doing the right thing with his constant desire to chew on heads. In the eyes of accountant Tom Hardy, the stay your favorite with a mouth full of CGI fangs it’s a way to make sure the star’s mortgage is paid off quickly. It’s not that the actor, always tough in his roles, doesn’t try or isn’t really involved in the Venom movies; Hardy co-wrote both Venom: Carnage’s Fury of 2021 and of the third and probably last chapter, Venom: The Last Dancewith Kelly Marcel. The two have been friends for a long time – they founded the Bad Dog Theater Company together in London in 2010, eight years before the first chapter of the understatement – and Marcel made his directorial debut at the end of the trilogy. In the corporate products space, it’s practically a family business.
So why this Last dance Does it seem so impersonal, so mechanical, so predictable? Yes, previous films have stuck to a fairly typical template: Hardy’s Brock is a reluctant host (even if he has “physical” comedy chops), a digitally rendered Venom demands the most violent response to any situation they encounter, an alien threat more still dangers. it must be overcome and so a détente ensues between man and his symbiote friend. Sometimes the situation gets more complicated, other times it explodes. There are a few jokes. The historical character supporting Mrs. Chen (Peggy Lu) rolls her eyes.
In short, it’s all there, along with a sentimental streak that represents a sort of narrative arc for what has become a bromance consisting of three films, two characters and one body. But all the elements of this long haul seem like spare parts tacked on to a dark superhero story. The big bad in this chapter is a “world-slicer” named Knull, who has been imprisoned by the other race of symbiotes in the world and is like a man who escaped from the series. Thor: The Dark World (not a recommendation). The MacGuffin is a life force tracking device called Codex that causes several interstellar cockroaches, minions of Knull, to hunt Venom/Brock on Earth. The scientists are the allies. The soldiers are too excited of the enemies. Where does most of the action take place? Area 51, because, well, we’re talking about aliens. Are you already asking?
As for the promise that Spider-Man might look and/or devastate, like the one floating in both kick of the end credits of Fury Carnage e Spider-Man: There’s No Way Homenothing, it was ignored from the beginning. The Last Dance he suggests prompting this latest crossover, in which Brock, unexpectedly transported to the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of Mexico, tries to get an idea of a world full of superheroes and a “purple alien obsessed with stones” as a bartender ( Christ Fenandez with Ted Lasso) looks at him in shock. Then boom, Brock and his symbiote are brought back to their lives without much fanfare. “I can’t take any more of this multifaceted shit,” thunders the low, alien voice deep in Eddie’s head. For once, we completely agree, Mr. Venom.
Soon interstellar cockroaches start stalking our heroes, a general (Chiwetel Ejiofor) with a score to solve that brings the two back to the top-secret laboratory in Area 51, a biologist (Juno Temple) with a ridiculously traumatic backstory talking about need to study symbiotes. and a hippie family led by someone who believes that “the truth is out there” (Rhys Ifans) who becomes an innocent to be saved. There are fights on the fuselage of a flying plane, in a series of hotels in Las Vegas and underwater in a river. Every now and then, the movie introduces a new wacky twist, a weird twist, or something ridiculous that would make people laugh. If you’ve ever been curious about what a horse symbol/mash-up would look like, you’ve wanted to see Venom dance Dance queen or listen to him sing Space Odditythis movie is for you.

Since the characters are based on Marvel, the movies of Venom they’re technically superhero movies and the good vs. bad conflicts – or, as often happens in this trilogy, between bad and very bad – happen with all the surprise you’d expect. But underneath it all is about friend comediesand the way Hardy transforms the slapstick bits and the pitiful ego into the jokes of his unrepentant id (the actor has devoted himself more and more to bringing the voice of Venom to the fore as the saga went on, and his exclamations to the Bane with a cold remain a treat here) in a comedy show that is a big part of the charm. That’s why you believe there really is a connection between Brock and the unwanted passenger sitting in the front row.
And if fans have come to grips with that feature, which was successfully transferred from the comics, then they will probably be happy with the conclusion of this trilogy. The Last Dance it ends without a bang or a tear, but simply with a goodbye. (Hardy has said he’s involved in the Venom movies, but he’s not opposed to meeting Spider-Man, so the title might be premature.) We have no idea if it’s a montage best-in-show on the notes of Memories at Maroon 5 should be ironic or not, to be honest. But he pays tribute to those who have remained faithful to this particular diversion of superhero cinema by giving them a final waltz.
