Venom: The Last Dance
★★½ Watched

"Eddie... my home has found us."

The first two films in this trilogy were marginal thumbs-ups, but it would seem that the writing has devolved to the point that I finally got a little fed up with it.

The cinematography is gorgeously dark and creepy. My god, those scenes where Nikki's whole face is in darkness but the…
