MADAME WEB

Director: S.J. Clarkson
Starring: Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O’Connor, Isabela Merced, Tahar Rahim, Adam Scott, Emma Roberts

There’s a new Spider-Man spinoff in theaters called Madame Web and it shows that big comic book movies need a big budget, someone who can shape a thrilling action sequence, and the right cast. Madame Web is lacking in all of that. Dakota Johnson leads the film as Cassie Web, a paramedic in New York who starts having premonitions of life or death moments after she’s rescued trying to save someone’s life from a car crash. This all comes decades after her mom died in childbirth and was bitten by a mythical spider. This all sounds convoluted but that’s just set up for the real plot. Cassie then saves the life of three teen girls on the New York subway after a madman (Rahim) tries to kill them. He has premonitions that one day the three girls will kill him. They’re played by Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, and Celeste O’Connor. In theaters
