(Merlin) Cute romance-in-Vegas, redeemed gambler story. Drew and Eric have some good chemistry and it was overall a pretty good drama.

Comments:
(Merlin) In this season of sequels, this movie stands out. With probably the best plotline from the comic introducing Venom and the alien symbiote, this movie explores Spidey's darker side and temptation. I had never been a big fan of Sandman, but they do such a great job with him in this that you can't help but to think how cool an (almost-anti-)villan he is. Overall a great continuation of a great series.
