Is it a tragic story of a health care provider determined to avoid wasting his life and dropping his soul within the course of? Is it a solo vampire story within the modern-day, one thing we haven’t seen in films in fairly a while? The reply seems to be…properly, each of these, but additionally a little bit of a throwback to the early 2000s period of superhero films.

On some stage, it’s type of cool to see Morbius sure and use tremendous velocity by way of these guys, in the identical approach that it’s enjoyable to see Venom leap and lumber his approach by way of San Francisco. Sony’s non-Spider-Man films have apparently discovered a distinct segment in feeling like they have been made again within the early days of superhero films the place issues have been allowed to be a bit extra looser, goofier, and all over when it comes to high quality.

It’s greater than a little bit weak sauce watching a soldier clutch his neck after it’s been sliced and there’s not likely any blood. It’s the identical drawback with the Venom films—there’s solely a lot that they’ll indicate and it seems like they’re being held again from on the very least, being a bloody good time on the theater…if you happen to’re masked up or really feel secure, after all.
