Venom: Let There Be Carnage is the sequel to the 2018 movie Venom, which also starred Tom Hardy as the titular symbiotic anti-hero.

You see, Carnage is on a killing spree, so it's up to Venom - along with alter ego Eddie Brock and a police detective friend - to find him.

Is Venom: Let There Be Carnage Any Good?

Our critic gave the movie 7 out of 10 (Good) in our Venom: Let There Be Carnage review, writing that it "improves on everything from the first movie, leaning into its own absurdity. While it plays it a little safe, it still points the series in an exciting direction." As for the wider critic community, most seem to have a slightly dimmer view of the film.

What Is Venom: Let There Be Carnage Rated?

Like its predecessor, this sequel is rated PG-13. The MPAA gave it this rating for "intense sequences of violence and action, some strong language, disturbing material and suggestive references." In fact, in an interview with IGN, director Andy Serkis said Venom 2 pushes the PG-13 rating to the "very limits."
