just saw it.
My Impression going in: This movie would be okay, Venom was a lost cause because of casting and the new goblin reeked of super cool snowboarding in midair cheesyness. But still it would be a good super hero movie even if they fucked it up
My Impression leaving: Better then I thought it would be, good enough to be the best of the three movies, but still could have been better.
Venom was actually fucking awesome, and that scrawny kid did a good job with Brock, even if he's about 10 years to young and 50lbs to light. The CG that was Venom was smaller then the comics but was bigger then spiderman so it looked right.
When Parker turns bad the movie doesn't. Thought it was gay? The whole point was to show that cocky/asshole style doesn't fit parker, it's foreshadowing to the Venom conflict. Still when Parker is at his worst he a cold hearted sonofabitch and he does it well enough.
Anyone who thought "emo spidey" was gay fails to realize how deep Marvel comics are.
The fight scenes were twice the quality of the earlier films, it was like the matrix on crack
for what it could have been I give it a 9 out of 10
for a movie in general I give it an 8 out of 10
