Madame Web Reviews

...the reality of Madame Web is that its poor execution of storytelling, editing, and acting make it incredibly hard to get through.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jul 28, 2024

It’s so poorly, laughably designed and implemented that it’s as if it were a student film, and not some colossally-budgeted Hollywood epic.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/10 | Jul 20, 2024

Madame Web is the type of bad that’s so all-consuming that it achieves a bizarre majesty. If it weren’t for the headache-inducing craftsmanship, it would have to be seen to be believed.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 19, 2024

Not the hilariously bad disaster you may have heard about but a prime example of superhero fatigue reaching cast members too.

Full Review | Original Score: D+ | Jul 19, 2024

After watching Madame Web, viewers may quickly realize they don't have a clue who Madame Web actually is.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 8, 2024

Once you untangle the web of mysteries you end up going “oh… that's it?”

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 4, 2024

Johnson, thankfully, acts with enough aloofness to show this is all nonsense.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Jul 4, 2024

By the halfway point, when you realize Cassie still needs to go hear some platitudes from an offensive Peruvian stereotype, it feels like the movie is just bullying you for no reason.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 2, 2024

This clairvoyant superhero origin story starring Dakota Johnson is a failure in just about every way.

Full Review | Jun 24, 2024

Johnson tries to evoke Cassandra’s inner turmoil, and the scenes between her and Scott offer glimpses of a more promising project. But any potential gets buried early, beneath clumsy exposition, clunky special effects, and disconnected editing.

Full Review | Jun 14, 2024

Madame Web is plenty of things — mediocre, dull, boring, unnecessary and goofy — but the worst comic book movie? No, it’d need to be especially committed to something at a high level for that accolade as opposed to simply immediately forgettable.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/10 | Jun 3, 2024

This was not a fun watch. Nothing made sense and Dakota Johnson seemed like she couldn't be bothered during key scenes in the film.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 2, 2024

One of the worst superhero films in recent memory. Unfortunately, there's nothing redeeming about this.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 2, 2024

Johnson’s charm does keep the film afloat...and the chemistry of the younger leads makes for breezy fun. Never overstaying its welcome and complete with a throwback ’90s/aughts soundtrack, Madame Web could find a future where it belongs.

Full Review | Jun 2, 2024

This is the worst cast superhero movie in recent memory.

Full Review | May 29, 2024

So shockingly inept that it's hard to believe its real.

Full Review | Original Score: 0/4 | May 23, 2024

Alfred Hitchcock said “To make a great film you need three things- the script, the script, and the script”. Madame Web is the perfect example of what happens when those three things are missing.

Full Review | Original Score: D | May 22, 2024

The reality is that Madame Web is not a good movie. But in the right frame of mind, with the right crowd, and the right mix of controlled substances, it *can* be a fun movie.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | May 20, 2024

A tough sell from the start. But one of the worst superhero films ever made? Gimme a break.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | May 5, 2024

Dakota Johnson stars in this latest Marvel superhero origin story, which at one point even includes the birth of future Spider-man Peter Parker. Johnson plays Cassandra Webb (cringe), who can see the future because a spider bit her mom and … Ho-hum.
