Venom: The Last Dance – Journey through a Charismatic Trilogy

Date:

Key Takeaways:

– “Venom: The Last Dance” marks the third installment in the successful yet unlikely Sony’s Venom franchise.
– Despite being disconnected from Spider-Man, the films have managed to become fan favorites.
– Tom Hardy’s performance and the unique dynamic between Eddie and Venom are significant highlights of the franchise.
– Venom 3 is expected to have a showdown with Knull, the creator of the symbiotes.

Understanding the Venom Series

The Venom series, somehow, has managed to churn out three successful films despite being detached from the all-familiar Spider-Man. While Sony’s other spin-offs have received mixed and less favorable reviews, the Venom series has slowly grown, earning the love and admiration of many fans. But how did it all start and what can we expect from the final part of the trilogy? Let’s dive into the first two films of the trilogy to figure it out.

The Debut of Venom

The first film, Venom (2018), introduces us to investigative journalist Eddie Brock, played by heart-throb Tom Hardy. Eddie’s probing questions cost him everything, but his fate turns around when a sinister experiment conducted by Carlton Drake, played by Riz Ahmed, reveals dangerous alien symbiotes. Eddie becomes a perfect match for one of these symbiotes, named Venom, which gifts him unmatched agility, strength and speed. Despite flaws like subpar editing and supporting characters lacking depth, Venom’s story thrives majorly due to Tom Hardy’s charismatic performance and his intriguing relationship with the symbiote.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage

The first Venom’s popularity and overwhelming box-office return paved the way for a sequel, Venom: Let There Be Carnage. In this film, Eddie Brock interviews serial killer Cletus Kasady, who is transformed into Carnage due to an unexpected outburst from Venom. As Carnage goes on a rampage, Eddie and Venom struggle to coexist but eventually reunite to stop the menace. Although the film maintains a PG-13 rating, Woody Harrelson’s Carnage stands out as an interesting villain, and the film dives deeper into the bond between Eddie and Venom, adding an interesting dynamic to the superhero story.

Anticipating Venom: The Last Dance

Venom: Let There Be Carnage concluded with Venom set to collide with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, but that proved to be a false alarm. In Venom: The Last Dance, Eddie and Venom continue to be fugitives, expected to face an epic battle against Knull, the creator of the symbiotes. The narrative hints at exploring their unique bond further, but whether or not the film will impress audiences is anybody’s guess. If you enjoyed the first two, there’s a high chance the third won’t disappoint.

Conclusion

The journey of the Venom trilogy may be full of rough edges, yet it carries an undeniable charm mainly attributed to Tom Hardy’s compelling performance. Despite the obvious weaknesses, fans have found something to love in the story’s chaotic, goofy but ultimately heroic narrative. Fingers crossed, Venom: The Last Dance will continue this charm and give the trilogy a grand farewell. The film is set to invade theaters on October 25. So gear up for a roller-coaster ride!
