    • Trivia
      While Eddie is holed up at Coit Tower trying to find Cletus, several helicopters pass by looking for Venom and Carnage. This was actually not planned; the helicopters flying by were actually part of the shoot for The Matrix Resurrections (2021), which was filming in the same part of San Francisco as Let There Be Carnage during their shoots. Instead of waiting for a clearer shot, Andy Serkis thought it would make sense for helicopters to be roving around during the scene and left it, adding additional dialogue by Tom Hardy in ADR afterward to mention them.

      When Shriek is reversing the mustang she reaches into the center to pull the emergency brake, but in the 1966 Mustang the emergency brake is a handle on the left side of the driver.
    • Quotes

      [from trailer; Venom controls Eddie's arm to slap Dan]

      Eddie Brock: Oh! I am so sorry!

      Venom: NOT sorry!

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER: There is a scene in the closing credits: Venom and Brock are transported to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Venom sees J. Jonah Jameson's expose of Peter Parker, from Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019), on TV.
    • Alternate versions
      A deleted scene set shortly after Kasady escapes death by lethal injection and frees Shriek with the help of the Carnage symbiote. Here we get a better idea of the symbiote's plans for the world, as he wants to use his new allies to wipe out humanity and replace them with a new race of human/symbiote hybrids.

    A big pile of nothing
    Venom: Let There Be Carnage is a one trick pony that doesn't land its trick. The entire movie is filler stalling for its final battle, yet that showdown is disappointing. Yes, it is between two marketable comic book characters, but that's all it provides. The villain is underdeveloped and uninteresting, the imagery is sloppy and cluttered, and the choreography is nonsensical. Because there is no coherent style or vision, the sequence ends up being a big, ugly mess. Normally, the details of an action sequence wouldn't be so significant, but that's all this film invests in.

    Everything about the story is rushed, repetitive, and uninspired. There are no intimate moments to allow things sink in because the script lacks substance worth meditating on. The humor is okay at times, Tom Hardy is talented enough to have chemistry with himself, and effort went into the CGI (though it was overused). However, besides that, this production is pointless. Even the violence is unsatisfyingly suppressed for that PG-13 rating. Undoubtedly, some fanboys will be content with a mediocre fight between two characters they recognize, but as a film, Venom: Let There Be Carnage is a noisy pile of nothing.

    Writing: 2/10 Direction: 2/10 Cinematography: 2/10 Acting: 7/10 Editing: 4/10 Sound: 7/10 Score/Soundtrack: 5/10 Production Design: 3/10 Casting: 7/10 Effects: 6/10

    Overall Score: 4.5/10.
