What Works for Venom: The Last Dance
What works for Venom: The Last Dance, like every Venom film, is the camaraderie between Eddie and his symbiote friend Venom. The entire segment where Venom becomes a horse is hilarious and fun. The visual effects are naturally good and the action is good too, although it’s a little more than you want in the end. The final part where Eddie recalls all the happy ‘memories’ with Venom is heartening. That little segment leads to a satisfying ending.
What Doesn’t Work for Venom: The Last Dance
Venom: The Last Dance feels very formulaic. There is lack of continuity in this. The story structure, conflicts, and jokes have all been used in ample quantities in other comic book films. Opponents don’t scare you. There is no innovation. It is just a repetition of what happened in the past; Hopefully this sticks, yet again. The climax of the action takes too long to fully invest in.

Performance in Venom: The Last Dance
Tom Hardy is fun as Eddie Brock. He has put together the film with Juno Temple as Venom. The supporting cast like Peggy Lu, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Rhys Ifans don’t have much to work with here. They do their work decently.
Venom’s Final Verdict: The Last Dance
Venom: The Last Dance is a formulaic superhero movie that tries to please its audience with everything they’ve enjoyed about Venom so far. This time it is hit and miss.
