A terrible movie script turns an epic comic book rivalry into a piece of garbage not worth watching. I remember as a kid turning the comic book pages of Venom vs Carnage with excitement. But here, from the pathetic attempts at heartwarming moments, to the portrayal of Venom as a petulant child, to the boooooring plot progression, to say that that this movie was a disappointment would be an understatement.

It's a good thing that (in their words) what makes them so enjoyable to watch in the series is that they're genuinely able to be themselves. Unfortunately, with the movie, obviously there's a certain amount of script that has to be acted out, and there the jokers fail horrendously (and not in a good way). From the first few scenes it was very apparent that they had no acting skills, and thus making large portions of the movie boring to watch. Furthermore, for the movie I was expecting their pranks / activities to be up a notch, but it was nothing dissimilar to the series / episodes. That's not to say that the pranks weren't good, as I am an avid enjoyer of the series, but for a movie I was frankly expecting more audacity, bigger scale, etc and it wasn't there. Even if you're a fan, just pass on the movie and watch the reruns of the series instead.
