Isn`t a review that starts with ``don't listen to the critics`` kind of self defeating?

I think the critics finally got a Marvel appraisal right.

@maninahat No because critics aren\'t the end all be all and they have been wrong before like with the new Ghostbusters and The Last Jedi. Rotten Tomatoes even shows that while most critics hate this movie, the audience likes it.

His point is that, by posting a review, you are, effectively, yourself a critic.

Don't Listen to the Professional Critics
As a Venom fan I was cautiously excited for this movie, after all this is Sony, they don't have a good track record and the last time they had a crack at the character with Spider-Man 3 they got him VERY wrong. Thankfully I am happy to report that this movie makes up for Spider-Man 3. Tom Hardy absolutely knocks his roles out of the park, the CGI for Venom and Riot look great, Michelle Williams does a good performance of Ann Weying and the humor for the most part hits. However the one big flaw with this movie is the villain. Riz Ahmed tries his best with Carlton Drake but the character was never that interesting to begin with and is only slightly better here. While Riot is your generic alien invasion force leader. Not helping things is none of the other Life Foundation symbiotes appear, so its unclear why they went with the boring Riot, instead of the at least more interesting design wise Scream. Overall I give this a movie a B rating, its a fun ride and deserves a chance.
