When Venom first hit theaters in 2018, setting up a sort-of side universe for Spider-Man's many villains, its style didn't necessarily turn many heads, but the comedic, off-kilter relationship between Eddie Brock and his symbiote companion was enough to carry an otherwise generic superhero film. Morbius, unfortunately, doesn't have the name recognition of Venom, nor does the film feature the same kind of campy, scene-chewing performance from its main character. It's all the worse for it.
