LOL this is the most apt explination ever
It is pretty simple. If you are a Venom fan, go and see this at a matinee. If you are a Marvel fan, wait for the cheap theaters. If you like mindless action movies, wait for Netflix. If you like intelligent movies, go watch Inception again.
I think if they went the R rated route with the Venom they way they did with Logan and Deadpool I think ti would have been a much better movie
I honestly don't think the rated R part mattered. They clearly had the movie complete and probably took out some things that would push it to R. But I doubt the things they removed would have helped the really bad story.
