Okay, so, 3 weeks passed from we first time watched Venom 2 on the pre-premier, and this art is a kinda our reaction and our feelings for it.
A call, a message from our boys from V for Venom universe to them, Eddie and Vee from Venom 2, but not to them as they appeared on the screen. To a some version of them which is covered deep in the movie under a million of loud jokes, and rudeness, and lack of symbiosis, and lack of emotions.
To those guys who have their rights for feelings, not for words and actions only.
Just want to warm them and say that everything will be okay.
I want to pay attention, that we are those, for whom the first Venom changed all life completely, and there's no enough words to say thanks for it.
I really sorry I can't write in english all the 15 pages of my review, which I wrote in russian, so I can only be short in my words, cause it's not my native language.
So, we watched Venom 2 seven times already, in russian and in english.
We can't operate with words "like/dislike", it's not that category of emotions.
There was a lot of pain and misunderstanding for us after first times. There was a long way to acception. Through all that stages. And acception is not reached yet. And here's a lot of painful love above that all.
We went there with our hearts and minds opened and free from any expectations, ready to love everything they will give us, ready to see our beloved boys again on big screen. But we couldn't handle what we got. We were not ready for this super-fast gallop with jokes, jokes, jokes, lack of emotions, rewritten charachters, rewritten facts from the first movie, too loud musik and all this.. I only could think: "It's so.. different. So terrifyingly different. Just.. why?.. I just want to go "home", to the world of first movie, which is so unperfect, and so beautiful, and so harmonical."
Of course we were not waiting for, you know, kisses and hugs and pet names or something. Of course we hoped they will handle the first movie and it's atmosphere carefully, and continue this atmosphere in second movie. But no.
Too much promises from the creators during the advertising campaign about "relationship development", "symbiosis development", but movie is not about it, it's about finding a place in the world, finding a place under the sun, becoming hero. It's about desires and actions, not a "love story". And it's okay, it's a good theme, but why they promised the other?.. And all this symbrock moments for fans - they are rude and shouting, like golden sand thrown in the eyes. It's a pain and it's a.. shame.
We couldn't believe this "love" talk, unfortunatelly. It has no emotions. Like, you know, in damned vol. 4. And it's bad.
One phrase from the first movie "You did, Eddie" more then all "moments" of "old married couple" they give us here.
And we still hope that, huh, somewhere there is another movie. Solid, beautiful, longer than that ridiculous 1:25 of pure movie without credits, where they allow themselves to feel what are they doing. Not only to rush and shout and change the scenes second by second.
Cause Venom 2 deserves better. Just.. better, then they showed it to us.
And ridiculously, after all of this, we love the movie and we love them, Eddie and Vee, not "still", but even more. Such a crasy enormous painful feeling. Cause it's just.. love, yes. And if this time something went wrong and something is not for joy but for pain and many thoughts, it's okay. It's just love, and we have an endless ammount of love to this world, to these guys, just want a bit more emotions and symbiosis and their special warmness for them.
Still in huge pain to write all of this...)
And I don't want someone to argue with me, sorry. It's our uneasy and honest opinion.
You can write your opinion, if you want. But not arguing.
P.S. We're totally in love with Cletus and Shreik and all their theme.
And I don't want to write anything about Carnage/Cletus death - it's just awful and full of shame in all ways.
