Reviews

r96sk: I've been quite generous in how I've received (the apparently now finished) <em>'Sony’s Spider-Man Universe'</em>, but even I can't give you any positives for this one.

<em>'Venom'</em> is its peak, though I genuinely enjoyed <em>'Madame Web'</em> (don't @ me) and even (the not good) <em>'Morbius…

CinemaSerf: I can't really go lower than a six for this because ATJ is just so easy on the eye. Reductive? Well, yes, but if that's the only card a film has then you might as well get your shirt off and play it! Sadly, that is all that can really be said for this plodding superhero adventure. The "Kravinoff" si…

Chandler Danier: Kraven Hunter is good hunter. Very good actor, Mr Crowe. Picture move. Much excitement I feel in my heart. Wow.

White man take black magic become invincible. Wow. Fresh movie.

jafranklin77: @r96sk I totally agree with your review and also about Maddem Web and Morbius (They were not blockbuster bny any stretch but not as horrible as most make them to be) but this one was not it and too lonmg and draw out for no real reason. Sony needs to stick to spider-man and leave the rest to Marvel

Firstly, this is a fresh, down to earth, departure from your standard Marvel Franchise films.Idiots in over bright Lycra or Spandex outfits, are, thankfully, absent.

Instead, yo…

Dornail: Kraven was what I would call a good holiday action film that probably didn't get a good chance. I have no idea why it seems every Marvel associated movie is getting the fan negativity treatment. Not every movie will be a triple A Endgame film. Kraven was a secondary character at best in the comic…

Dean: Great movie. Enjoyed it a lot. I actually enjoyed this movie better than Thunderbolts.
