Tom Hardy’s ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ Stinks Of Rotten Reviews

Tom Hardy’s final outing as the prominent Marvel antihero, Venom: The Last Dance, is another example of a film that looks good on the outside but falls short on the inside. Early reactions to the latest SSU entry were highly positive, with critics praising the threequel’s silly yet entertaining narrative and Hardy’s performance. However, the film’s Rotten Tomatoes score tells a completely different story.

The Rotten Tomatoes score for Venom 3 has surfaced. Currently, the critic score on the platform stands at a “rotten” 36%, based on over 70 certified reviews. It’s uncertain which way this score will trend, so it’s best to wait until October 25th, when the movie sees its worldwide theatrical release. The performance during the first weekend will determine whether this final Venom installment will be a hit or a disappointing dud.

The Last Dance’s Rotten Tomatoes score is fairly consistent with the previous entries in the Venom franchise. The first film, released in 2018, was stuck at a 30% score. Although its sequel, Let There Be Carnage, performed better, it still received a “rotten” rating of 57%. This means if Venom 3 manages to reach a score of 40-50% or higher in the coming days, it could satisfy many fans. On the other hand, a decline could negatively affect the film’s box office performance. Additionally, the odds of Venom 3 matching the success of its predecessors have dropped further, as reports suggest the film is expected to have a franchise-low domestic box office opening of around $65 million.
