Hot on Home Video: 'Venom: The Last Dance'

Tom Hardy shores up his dual-role trilogy in this splashy, if thin, finale, which brings the invigorating saga to a largely satisfying conclusion. Director Kelly Marcel deploys ample CGI for action scenes, and the film manages to thrive when it slows things down and revels in quite moments of incisive humor. Although not for all tastes, fans of the first two films will find plenty to savor here.

Extras include deleted and extended scenes, outtakes and bloopers, a featurette on Hardy's performances, character splotlights and a Tom Morello x Grandson music video. There's also a fitting tribute doc to the venom legacy and an interview with Mr. Chen.

Studio provided screener for review.
