I started watching...

Madame Web (2024)

last night and I'm about half way through the movie.

(sigh)

Within the first 10 minutes, you realize the movie isn't being handled well.

There's problems with the dialogue, the camera angles, the story, the special effects, and even the casting feels off.

First of all, do people talk this way is real life? Some of the dialogue is laughable.

The story isn't helping. I'm half way in, and barely know any of the characters. Why are there four people dressing like Spider Man? What is the motivation behind the main villain?

I couldn't help but wonder if there were too many characters.

It's about a girl whose mother dies after giving birth to her, but the mother just before giving birth, is bitten by a mysterious and hard to locate spider. Years later the girl develops powers.

Stars Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, Celeste O'Connor, Tahar Rahim, Mike Epps, Emma Roberts, and Adam Scott
