Movie Review: 'Venom: The Last Dance'

(Warning: Article may contain spoilers)

The final movie in the Venom trilogy was an epic rollercoaster of fun and humor. Fans of Venom will surely be entertained until the end of the film.

Tom Hardy made a tremendous effort to put together "Venom: The Last Dance." Fans have been clamoring for a special cameo in the movie by MCU's Spider-Man. Of course, that didn't happen. The closest Spider-Man to appear in Venom's world was during the end credits scene of "Venom: Let There Be Carnage."

"Venom: The Last Dance" takes place in the events after the second Venom movie. Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) and his buddy Venom have taken refuge in Mexico as they are on the run from the authorities after the "death" of Police Detective Patrick Mulligan (Stephen Graham) during their battle against Carnage.

Not only are they on the run from authorities led by Rex Strickland (Chiwetel Ejiofor) but also the imminent alien invasion led by new villain Knull, who makes his SSU or Sony Spider-Man Universe debut in the movie.

Eddie Brock's alter ego Venom showed more of his fun side in the film, merging with a horse to dancing with Mrs. Chen (Peggy Lu) in a posh hotel suite. Of course, Eddie had his moments with Venom and has found friendship with a hippie named Martin Moon (Rhys Ifans), along with his wife Nova and his kids.

Venom's heroic demise after his epic battle with the Knull's minions to save the Earth from an alien invasion was a fitting farewell to Eddie Brock in the trilogy. Eddie's friendship with Venom was indeed special albeit keeping his symbiote buddy's sometimes uncontrollably fun side in check throughout the trilogy.

"Venom: The Last Dance" lived up to expectations from fans of the superhero character. It's simply the best Venom movie in the trilogy. It is an epic rollercoaster of fun and humor that even casual audiences can enjoy. Very entertaining indeed for a film that runs for almost two hours.

Like all superhero films, fans should stick around for the mid and end-credit scenes. This is a no-brainer. They leave some clues of what's possibly next for Eddie Brock and the new villain Knull in the Sony Spider-Man Universe.
