Movie Critics (823 KP) rated The Dinner (2017) in Movies
May 4, 2017
The four-handed set-up (though other characters, and a number of wobbly flashbacks, intrude) may well recall Yasmina Reza’s acrid couple-combat in her play God of Carnage. If you thought that foursome were rotten eggs, get a load of this lot.

Better than the first
Let there be carnage
I wasn't a big fan of the first film, probably due to be over hyped. So I didn't have high hopes for this one. Thankfully I found it better than the first film. It's funnier and Woody Harrelson is a much better villian.
There's not much depth to the plot and it's over before too long. Still an enjoyable watch.

Well.
That was ... different.
I'd read a few reviews of the first Venom movie that basically described it as a rom-com between Eddie Brock and the symbiote Venom.
Watching this, so must have the producers of this film as they have seemingly 'doubled down' on that aspect, with Tom Hardy again portraying by Eddie Brock and voicing Venom, with lots of internal conversations going on between the two (that sound vaguely like something out of Deadpool), and with the two of them arguing and bickering the part out with each other, leading to a (temporary) breakup of sorts.
As for Woody Harrelson? He portrays the serial killer whom the symbiote Carnage latches onto (although it's never fully explained how Carnage came to be from a sliver of Venom), alongside Naoime Harris's Shriek, who surprised me right at the start of the film in that she is a mutant. In the Spiderman Shared Universe
All in all, I have to say, I *think* this is an improvement on the first, but it is a close call.
