Venom: Οι πρώτες αντιδράσεις "θάβουν" την ταινία

Έσπασε το embargo από τις πρώιμες αντιδράσεις των κριτικών για το πολυαναμενόμενο Venom στα social media και έτσι έχουμε τις πρώτες εντυπώσεις για την προσπάθεια της Sony Pictures στο δικό της standalone κινηματογραφικό σύμπαν με τους αντιήρωες της Marvel. Βάσει των tweets που αναρτήθηκαν οι αντιδράσεις ήταν ποικίλες και στην καλύτερη περίπτωση χλιαρές, με αρκετούς κριτικούς να θάβουν κυριολεκτικά την ταινία με πρωταγωνιστή τον Tom Hardy. 

Άλλοι reviewers που την είδαν την αποκάλεσαν "σαν μια superhero ταινία που ξετρύπωσε από το 2000" και μια "πλήρης αποτυχία, που έχει την αίσθηση ότι βγήκε πριν από 15 χρόνια" ενώ υπήρξαν και ατάκες όπως "Το Venom είναι όσο κακό όσο το Catwoman" . Σίγουρα όχι οι αντιδράσεις που περίμεναν οι ιθύνοντες της Sony Pictures και ο σκηνοθέτης της ταινίας Ruben Fleischer. 

#Venom is Catwoman level bad, with Tom Hardy's worst performance since This Means War.
DON'T SEE THE MOVIE!

Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock and #Venom has some really entertaining moments. A clunky script without nuance bogs the #Venom down, preventing it from choosing between being gritty, funny, or something unique.

Significant chunks of #Venom don’t work *at all* but there is some serious charm to the Eddie/Venom relationship. Not sure I had the intended reactions to some scenes but fun is fun - even when it’s totally ridiculous, right? It’s too bad they didn’t go for the R rating though.

Social embargo for #Venom is up. I talk about this a lot in my review but this is a movie that somehow slipped through a wormhole from 2004. That's my biggest take. It's a movie that spilled from the pre-MCU era through a crack in time and space.

Sorry to say that #Venom is pretty much a complete failure - a tonal mess that feels 15 years old, ignoring the storytelling strides that the superhero genre has made in recent years.

A few fun Venom-centric moments aside, it has nearly nothing to offer. Don't get your hopes up.

Now that impressions can be shared: #Venom is pretty much this year’s Fant4stic. Everyone except for Hardy is coasting through their performance... I would hate to have to do press for this movie. #Venom #TomHardy

Υπήρξαν και οι χλιαρές αντιδράσεις:

#Venom wasn’t as bad as everyone was saying it was going to be. Tom Hardy is and always will be a great actor, and I laughed a lot — but I’m not sure whether that was intentional or not. Post-credit scene is ?

#Venom is a one-man buddy film bonded with an antihero origin story. And Tom Hardy pulls it off like only he can pic.twitter.com/d2AblUvWjF

Action-sequences and Eddie and Venom's odd relationship are the highlights of #Venom but if Sony wants to move forward with a universe, it needs to just keep the few parts that work and scrap the large portion which does t.

— Brandon Davis (@BrandonDavisBD) October 2, 2018

Tom Hardy's performance in #Venom is either Johnny Depp in the first PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN or Chris Klein in STREET FIGHTER: THE LEGEND OF CHUN-LI. Either way, it's not boring.
