The Take
Madame Web is not worth watching. It is unwatchable slop that drags the Sony Spider-Man Universe into its lowest point with a lifeless script and zero directorial vision.
The film turns the comic clairvoyant into a reluctant babysitter for three future Spider-Women while bad CGI and generic dialogue do all the heavy lifting.
The Verdict
Madame Web exists as a monument to everything wrong with modern IP filmmaking. Its script feels like a corporate checklist, its performances range from checked-out to openly hostile, and the result is a film that insults both the source material and the audience.
Skip it. Watch Logan instead.
