Critics Sentiment
Mid-credits scene shows Eddie transported to MCU universe
Venom battles Carnage at Grace Cathedral climax
The film drops significantly from Venom's entertaining solo adventure to the disappointing final battle, falling 2.5 points as the CGI climax fails to deliver satisfying action.
Venom: Let There Be Carnage succeeds most when focusing on the comedic chemistry between Eddie and Venom, with their relationship dynamics earning consistent praise from reviewers. The film stumbles with its underdeveloped villains and messy final battle, though the MCU tease in the credits provides an exciting finale. Overall, reviewers found it a slight improvement over the first film by embracing its silly tone, despite structural weaknesses.
