This was surprisingly short. It ended like eighty-three minutes after it began

its doesnt stop for a minute no. I would say the most relaxed scene is the mid credits one.

It's short, but I'm not sure I'd agree with VG that it is jam-packed. I think it hits all the normal beats of a superhero movie, it just that it takes it for granted that you saw Venom 1 so it doesn't waste any time with extra scenes reminding you of the relationship dynamics between Venom & Brock, Brock & Anne, or Anne & Venom. I think the short running time might short-change the villains, if anything.

This was pretty awful tbh.

I really liked the first one but the sequel felt rushed.

I liked enough for a matinee. The mid credit scene was pretty cool.
Spoiler: show
The change in lighting to something more in line with the MCU was a nice touch

What a strange movie. Deeply stupid and flawed in hundreds of different ways, but there's a real charm to Hardy's dual performance as Venom and Eddie. I appreciated how snappy and straightforward it was, but it really needed to be more violent. Bizarre scene at the rave. Also Carnage sucks

It does look good but the action scenes were often messy and hard to follow

I was always under the impression that the symbiote had less agency once combined with the host and they both existed as one with only extreme conflict causing a rift between them.

It's so funny that the movie ends with, like, a weird samba cover of "Love Will Tear Us Apart"
