1/10
WHO TF IS RICHARD?!?
I am a big marvel fan.
I have denied it for a long time but now I can’t longer deny it longer… marvel is dead
The worst marvel and Sony movie ever, the storyline is bad, the acting was terrible, the visuals were disgusting, the visions were awful, we saw the 3 girls in action for about 20 seconds, the super hero outfits in those 20 seconds were ugly as hell, the spider people outfits were vomiting material, what was even the bad guys story?!
Peppa pig has a better story line then this piece of shit.
Don’t watch this
They say it’s horrible. Which it was but the ending. Looks like it should have just been a tv show. Movie done with now Let’s get a TV series going with the same actors.
How do these creators are getting work. Fuck this shit.
I wanted to like this but wtf. Worst climax ever.
Imagine 12 year old write a fan fiction. Somehow Somy got it and made a movie out of it using AI instead of high salary writers. With 2 wannabes girlboss writers with 2 editorial writers and an AI software. No matter how good the original story had been, the idea of using AI to write screenplay means removing the humanity out the equation at this stage of AI development. Don't bother with playing potentially influencial actors, they would just digging their own career graves.
I'm glad they loae money on this film coz if it succeeded, writers would lose their jobs.
2 questions, why did they think this movie casting was ok to go with? And why did they think the story was going to make them money?
A better cast might have made it work, and Madame Webb didn't need a 2 hour long origin movie.
I completely watched a movie in 2 hours ago that's why i don't understand it does not right for it's too poor. I would give 5.1/10 :thinking:
I'm not a huge fan of the LITERAL MAGIC characters in the MCU so I really hope they keep this out of it. I'll just ignore the fact that we saw the birth of Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man :clown:
Why did the villain just immediately kill everyone at the camp to steal the spider? At that point he wouldn't even have known if the spider did anything! They never even try to explain his motives or where he even got his knowledge. He was just "the bad guy"
Why didn't Web take the kids to the police station immediately after the subway-thing? Isn't that the normal human thing to do?
The villain had ~10 years until he was supposedly going to be killed by the kids, so why didn't he use even a single second to plan anything? He just went into a crowd full of people in broad daylight. I don't even understand how he could become wealthy and powerful with so poor impulse control!
Have you ever used fireworks? In that fireworks-factory one of those rockets EXPLODED A HOLE IN A BRICK WALL :upside_down:
There were a bunch of annoyances for me so I won't write all day here, but most of all the voice dubbing of the main villain was super annoying. His English must have been completely unintelligible for them to use ADR for every single scene, but I would have preferred badly spoken dialogue to this. The ADR never failed to bring me out of the movie because you can clearly see his lips being out of sync.
Oh and why on earth did they end up using those glasses? Wow, those are definitely the ugliest glasses I have ever seen. I really hope they were some kind of special prescription things from the doctor :rofl:
In the end I didn't really connect with anyone, and the Web actor didn't feel very invested either, maybe it was just a paycheck? This one might have been better to do as a series, I don't know...
Not as bad as social media suggested. I quite enjoyed it.
So, in the USA, you can drive a car without a license plate, and no one pulls you over, NICE.
"Watch old movies" is such a bizarre and unnecessary line.
Who would I be if I hated bad movies? I can understand why people find it bad, the writing isn’t that good and the acting from the villain was quite subpar, but it’s Spider-Man adjacent and if I hated it, who would I even be? I enjoyed the movie, the actions scenes were good and I adored the relationship between Cassie, Julie, Anya and Mattie, found family is my shit, and this was my shit. It was hilarious how much they avoided any mention of Peter Parker at all, but I know that damn baby was in Mary’s womb, you can’t fool me. If I say I want Madame Web two, who’s gonna stop me. I need more of Madame Web and the three girls. I need the exploration of the girls after their powers manifest I NEED IT RIGHT NOW.
Simply the worst of Marvel, it surprises me how it manages to overcome the bad things, there is nothing about this movie.:thumbsdown:
C'mon man, I fell asleep to this movie, and I almost like every movie I see, even the worst ones
it's like, they didn't know what ending to write so they just wrote whatever came to mind lol
Morbius, but with women.
It’s Boobin’ Time!
I know the meme is that the movie is bad; but this time it is not mistaken. I think is even worse than Morbius, and that is saying too much. First of all, the movie is BORING. Slow paced for a "superhero" movie, and not enough momentum in the action scenes. CGI was not bad, but that is about it. The rest (cinematography, plot, writing, music, acting, and many more) are reeeeeally below subpar. Weak references that don't add absouletely anything to the plot, storytelling nor the sonyverse or MCU (since it is in its own reality, apparently). There was a discount week at the local cinema and we pay 2 tickets for like 1,50 USD and I strongly believe that even that, we pay too much. Horrible movie
Congratulations, they made it!! . This has become the worst marvel/sony movie ever. A very weak script,underdeveloped characters. It has twilight vibes.I give up, I will never waste my money on any Marvel films in cenema.
RIP Marvel
I liked the movie :) it didn’t feel like a marvel movie at all but it wasn’t bad. Maybe not worth to go watch in theaters tho, more a nice simple couch movie
Maaaaaaaaaan people probably went to the movies cussing out Kevin Feige and canceling Disney Plus not knowing he had nothing to do with this mess :type_5:♂
Quite a mixed bag for me. I enjoyed the latter half of the movie better than the first half. I felt like the acting was decent but could have been refined and the way they handled Cassy being able to see into the future was quite jarring because of all the flashing and shaking cinematography.
In the grand scheme of things Madame Web is nothing too special, it has quite a basic storyline, somewhat decent acting, and the cinematography expelled in parts but dipped in others.
It was agile and entertaining, quite decent for me.
It’s crap. It’s not great but it’s no where near as bad as the basement virgins are making out. Would watch this over The Marvels any day
It's not so bad, it looks like a mix of Next (207) and Final Destination, things that in the minds of the screenwriters sounded good, but in the real world not.
I feel bad for Sydney Sweeney's career. I genuinely thought she had great potential. Then she gave us the disaster that is Anyone But You (2023). Looks like this movie continues that downward trajectory.
It was clear by the way she behaved during interviews leading up to the release that Dakota Johnson never took this movie seriously. Was there a Director at all? It felt like everyone were winging it.
I'm not really sure where this was going?
It's not a very good MARVEL movie, and it seems like it should have been made as a NETFLIX series. Instead of the build-up, we had to suffer through seeing the previews for the last 6 months.
I'm pretty sure I gave this movie the lowest rating of ALL the MARVEL releases.
I'm a bit disappointed , not even a teaser at the end.
Film 75 (Goal: 300) of 2024
I'm probably going to lose what little reputation I have at this point, but I actually enjoyed Madame Web... to an extent. Now it's very likely that because I went in with absolutely no expectations, due to terrible trailers, terrible reviews and the history of Sony's terrible attempt at a Universe, that my enjoyment factor was significantly higher - but I enjoyed this more than some of the MCU's recent offerings (I'm looking at you Black Panther 2, Ant-Man 3 and The Marvels).
That being said, Is it perfect? No way. Is it even very good? Nope. The action in this is probably the biggest culprit. Whether it was lack of budget or just no ability to shoot action but the action scenes throughout the majority of the film are poorly put together, and edited quickly together. And when it comes to the big end of film climax, this is where it most rears its ugly head. The script isn't great either, I'll acknowledge that. There's a head scratching moment when a known fugitive is able to get from the US to South America and back in a short timeframe. This movie is set only a few years after 9/11 as well where that kind of thing was at an all-time high.
The lead 4 girls are all good. After Sweeney's most recent turn in Anyone But You, this film goes against that by having her play a reserved school girl. Not sure it works. Isabela Merced continues to be someone to watch for the future - though she isn't given a lot to do here. Celeste O'Connor is decent but feels lost due to the script among her bigger stars.
It's another miss overall from the Sony universe. Admittedly, I liked it more than some of their other recent entries (Morbius, Venom 2, etc.) but given the wealth of stories in the extensive and rich Spider-Man universe, is this really the best Sony can put out?
The most unnecessary of the Spider-Man side characters solo movies. Tom Holland mentioned wanting Madame Web in a Spider-Man movie.
Shorty after, Sony rushed to announce they were making a solo movie, of course. Just so Marvel Studios couldn’t use the character.
Madame Web I mostly know of from the 90’s animated Spider-Man series. Who showed up when Peter needed guidance. So she would have been perfect for the credits of No Way Home.
Madame Web is supposed to be an older women. That Helen Mirren could have pulled off in her sleep. So of course Sony got Dakota Johnson. Who isn’t a bad actress at all but just isn’t Madame Web.
A lot of the movie is what the trailers promised. Final Destination with a supervillain. Though the movie is much slower paced than you might have hoped.
I recommend you go in with super low expectations and go on a discount day. This movie isn’t completely terrible. It was enjoyable enough to keep me watching. Definitely a forgettable movie
all comment's are bad .... The notes are week's .... But I love this movie .... Nice & strong gilr's
It’s been a rough few years for Marvel on screen. Despite my opinion that The Marvels was a great time, it fell far short of expectations on a huge budget, and Quantumania flopped at the start of the year with another massive budget and disastrous results both on screen and at the box office. Though Madame Web was not produced by Marvel Studios, I – and most of the world – have had a bad feeling about the perception of this movie ever since the first trailer dropped. It truly never stood a chance: up against the fall from public grace of Marvel properties across the board, and with a writing team known for bombs like 2022’s Morbius and 2017’s Power Rangers, Madame Web was set up for failure from day one. It was already at such a disadvantage that it would have been an uphill battle even if the film had ended up being stellar – something that may have happened in another universe, but certainly not this one. You didn’t exactly need the title character’s powers of foresight to see where this was going.
Madame Web is, essentially, a setup for things to come – or that Sony hopes are to come. In the 1970s, a team is researching spiders in the Amazon for their effects on the human body. Constance Web (Kerry Bishé) is interested in their healing properties, and Ezekiel Sims (Tahar Rahim), not so much. After a betrayal, Constance is cared for by Amazonian tribesmen who showcase the effects of this spider venom before she gives birth and passes away. Thirty years later, Cassie Web (Dakota Johnson) is a paramedic in New York City who begins to experience psychic visions that she does not understand. It begins with brief flashes of reliving a few seconds, but soon evolves into seeing things hours ahead of time. Acting upon visions he’s been granted by spider venom, Ezekiel Sims has spent the years since the Amazon incident hunting three young women who he believes will one day kill him. When Cassie and the three girls all find themselves on the same train to Poughkeepsie, Ezekiel attacks and sets a conflict into motion that is at times meandering, other times frenetic, and ultimately, meaningless – but we’ll get to that.
The hard thing about this film is that it is not nearly as bad, at least, as I was expecting it to be. It’s a passable origin story that clearly has its ambitions set on a sequel (most of the characters pictured don’t even have their super powers by the end of the movie) and establishes a team of super-powered women that Sony certainly is hoping to hang its hat on. There are just several things getting in the way of this movie being successful. Action scenes fall, for the most part, somewhere in between confusing and interesting. For every moment where the editing was slick and actually did a pretty good job of communicating the psychic slips that Cassie’s mind was having, there was a slapdash hack job leaving you wondering what character was standing where or who said what. (The ADR in this movie is absolutely heinous, particularly in scenes with Tahar Rahim as Ezekiel Sims.) The final sequence of a battle on top of a fireworks warehouse is especially guilty of this, as characters are dodging explosions and debris and suddenly you’ve lost track of all of them. Even small things, like a bad cut of a character removing their mask, are just sloppy. It’s also difficult to really make the big set pieces feel like superhero showdowns when only two of the five characters participating actually have powers.
The story itself is rather interesting, but when it’s propelled by characters delivering the most banal lines in the wildest situations, it saps the plot of any excitement or energy. There’s no way around it: the screenplay feels like it’s written by someone who doesn’t understand what a normal conversation sounds like. It also doesn’t help that most of the cast appeared to either know that the lines they were delivering were poorly written, or were otherwise entirely uninterested in this gig. Not a single performance was dimensional or engaging – particularly painful were Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney, and Emma Roberts. Even Adam Scott, who I’m typically very fond of (thanks Party Down and Severance) feels flat here. The screenwriters had the chance to really examine questions of fate versus free will, or of the inevitability of destiny with Cassie’s powers of clairvoyance; but we don’t really get any of that. Instead, it is a mostly fine, altogether safe, and standard intro to new stock characters with powers just vague enough to be twisted in whatever way the plot calls for. They also had every opportunity to make sure that we, as the audience, understood that this is the Sony Spider-verse we’re looking at here (Adam Scott is playing Ben Parker here – that’s right, Uncle Ben to Tom Holland’s Peter Parker), but I had no clue. It wasn’t until I was reading up on it for this review that I learned that this is 2003 in that timeline, years before Peter gets his powers. We’re mostly left wondering why no one is mentioning the striking resemblance Ezekiel’s costume bears to your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, or why an Amazonian tribe getting powers from spider venom seems so inexplicably foreign to these characters.
When I say that this movie is meaningless, it’s not because it’s devoid of anything fun or enjoyable – there were moments that I was engaged. I say it purely because of the reality of the industry. As I mentioned above, even if this movie was incredible, it was never going to perform well at the box office, and as a result, any sequels planned in advance are most likely going to end up getting the chop. That means that all of the leg work that this movie is doing in introducing these characters is, in all likelihood, for naught. I don’t like to write preemptive obituaries, and perhaps this weekend’s bow office numbers will bear glad tidings, but unless Madame Web can see something that the rest of us are missing, all I can foresee is a one-and-done bittersweet installment.
This lady is caught lacking on her paramedic job :joy::joy::joy:

Garbage...
Totally disappointed. Spider-Fan inside me is deeply offended by this pathetic film parody...
