"What the hell are you?"
"WE... are Venom."


Blurb: After a disastrous interview with a shady company ruins his life, journalist Eddie Brock accidentally winds up host to an alien symbiote that has invaded earth through said company. The alien takes a liking to earth and decides to protect it.

Why is it worth your time?: The BANTER. The banter between Eddie and Venom is fantastic. It really feels like system banter- playful and occasionally said out loud and having to be waved off to people who overhear. Yes its incredibly edgy because Venom wants to eat people, but its a playfully edgy sort of movie.
In the end, Eddie chooses to stay with Venom, and it feels very positive- they clearly care about each other under the bickering.
