Tom Hardy is my favorite actor. The way I look at his choice of certain roles like Venom is that he wants that money from time to time. And I don't blame him. But the number of other offbeat roles he takes that he makes is what does it for me. His role in Peaky Blinders is sublime. I'm doing a rewatch of Taboo and he is amazing. These roles probably pay peanuts compared to his big time Hollywood flicks.
I hope my favorite actors get paid lots of money and I don't very much care that it isn't from the tv show or movies I consume.
That scene with Tommy in the garage or wherever it was is so good.Peaky Blinders is a show that I time to time can start to tune out from because a lot of the story beats do tend to be pretty repetitive. But man. Every time Tom Hardy was on screen...every single time I'd zero in like crazy and then rewind the entire scene to see it again. He was so damn good.
It's ok. Tom Hardy is great in it, but the supporting cast and storyline are meh.Still haven't watched the first one.
Without the draw of the overarching meta story like the MCU I can't bring myself to watch superhero movies anymore.
Go in with really low expectations and you won't be disappointed

Except he is not the director of the second one.The Hardy/Venom interplay was kinda fun but other than that I thought Venom was trash. Good actors wasted. Bland story. This could be better because we'll get more Hardy and Venom and I'm a big Woody Harrelson fan and he's a good sport. High potential for this to be a giant incoherent CGI mess though (which the first one was too). Ruben Fleischer is a bad director. Zombieland is fine but everything since has been straight garbage.
