They...don't do well with it. The movie felt to me kind of like Suicide Squad. I didn't regret watching it, but there was so much potential there.
Venom is...odd...without Spider-man as his reason. The stuff he does makes no sense if he hasn't been Spider-man's suit first, which here, he hasn't been. The final CGI fight was brutal, and made even worse by the 3D of the theatre. It felt like the movie spent too long setting things up and not enough actually DOING them. Then when it did do something, it was over in seconds. Also, the movie isn't even internally consistent with it's own world, pretty much ignoring everything it takes forever to establish in the first half for the sake of 'This should be a cool story!' (It's not) in the second.
I did, however, like the interactions between the Symbiote and Brock.
