Venom: The Last Dance

"A delight when it’s not being a Madame Web rerun."

"More of the same, which will be fine with fans."

"A spirited mash of black humour and Grand Guignol gore."

"A sequel that's as fun, and rote, as the others."

"A patchy final adventure that needed a tighter, and funnier, script."

"At odds with its acknowledgment of the void and a driven need to party."

"A delightfully deranged dual performance by Hardy that doesn’t get enough credit in the greater comic-book movie canon."

"Far too Marvel-ised for its own good, but Tom Hardy is still having the time of his life."

"Goes out with neither a bang nor a whimper, simply a farewell."

"(It) can't find its rhythm."

"An outrageously fun and beautiful conclusion to a trilogy that we did not expect to go far."

"This franchise’s penchant for truly bonkers sequences has not diminished."

"As last dances go, it’s the Macarena in film form."

"When it leans hard into the inherent absurdity of its wacky, mismatched buddy antics, (it) can be a total blast."

"An excuse to execute stupid but cool ideas."
