Okay, so Let There Be Carnage wasn’t perfect, but honestly, most reviewers really seemed to dig it! They said it was a fun addition to the Venom story, and they especially loved how surprisingly goofy and even romantic it got. It felt like they really leaned into the weirdness, and people appreciated that.
The first Venom film was criticized for being boring, but the London Evening Standard praised Venom 2 as being exciting and enjoyable. The Austin Chronicle admitted Venom: Let There Be Carnage isn’t a cinematic masterpiece, but that’s okay because it delivers simple, over-the-top, and entertaining fun.
Reviews for Venom: Let There Be Carnage were sharply divided. The Times strongly criticized the film, calling it “extraordinarily poor,” while The Daily Telegraph praised it as a welcome change of pace, noting that it was a fun, chaotic film and significantly shorter than the first Venom movie.
After Venom: Let There Be Carnage, a third Venom movie, Venom: The Last Dance, came out in October 2024.
Directed by Kelly Marcel, the new film moves the story forward without the character of Anne Weying, previously played by Williams. It introduces several new cast members, including Juno Temple, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rhys Ifans, and Alanna Ubach, to the Venom universe.
Graham and Peggy Lu reprise their roles as Patrick Mulligan and Mrs. Chen. Andy Serkis, the director of Let There Be Carnage, will play the supervillain Knull.
