Dakota Johnson as "Madame Web" is fifty shades of beige!
Let's face it so is the whole movie.
The average rating on IMDb is 3.8 after nearly 20,000 views.
This in itself should be a huge red flag to Sony not to make a sequel to this stinking pile of excrement.
US Actress Sydney Sweeney must be regretting her decision to sign on for this project as "Julia" considering her acting career was on a huge trajectory with the success of Australia's second highest grossing romcom ever "Anyone But You" which is box office gold...see it instead.
First time director S. J. Clarkson should have stuck to directing TV series it seems more her jam.
Meanwhile the team of writers including Clarkson need to go back to attending Creative Writing Workshops or avoid using AI programmes in future screenplays.
Meanwhile Emma Roberts is playing "Mary Parker" mum to be of "Peter Parker".
That name ring any bells in the Spider Verse?
Her on screen brother "Ben Parker" is Adam Scott ("Parks & Recreation") who'd be ideally suited to impersonate Alan Alder (because of his voice) if they ever make another M. A. S. H. movie or his biopic.
Talking voices the Archetypal villain of this project "Ezekiel Sims" (Tatar Rahim) must have had his speech dubbed in post production or it's just annoyingly distracting.
The movie is very loosely based on the Marvel comic "The Book of Ezekiel".
Mike Epps is wasted as Paramedic "O'Neil" and used in only 2 scenes.
Don't expect to see Spider-Man either.
It is the fourth overall film of Sony's Spider-Man Universe movies without Spider-Man following Venom, Venom: Let There Be Carnage and Morbius.
BTW Product placement is at an all time high with the Neon Pepsi Sign in the final act.
Dumb Stuff: 1. How can you drive around New York in a stolen Yellow Cab with no number plates and a smashed up front end and still not attract one of NYPD's finest to book you?
2. Where did the Forest/Jungle near a Retro NY Diner come from?
3. Why does the Peruvian Jungle look like Mexico with fake signage?
4. 3 Teens are abducted and willingly go along with Madame Web "Cassandra Webb" (Dakota) because she demonstrates signs of clairvoyance.
Things can only get better right?
Wrong!
I smell what you're stepping in.
Madame Web" is one of the lowest grossing Marvel Studios movie ever.
Here's hoping the new "Deadpool & Wolverine" movie can save this company's nose dive in 2024.
After all "Deadpool" is the self proclaimed "Messiah or Marvel Jesus".
It's such a shame that "Madame Web" was the first film to use the Columbia Pictures 100th anniversary opening logo to celebrate the studio's centennial anniversary.
This once great film company of course was swallowed up by the corporate giant Sony.
"Madame Web" is 80 million dollars the Sony big wigs will have to write off their books in 2024.
According to the movie's tagline "Madame Web" connects them all.
If Web really had the powers of clairvoyance, she should have seen this coming.
God help this franchise.
