Daniel Cruse is a writer at Collider who focuses on crime films, classic movies, action, martial arts, and horror cinema.

The Big Picture Every year brings one or two movies that turn into critical punching bags. Unfortunately for the increasingly muddled, confusing Sony Spider-Man Universe, which has yet to actually feature Spider-Man after four films, Madame Web is that movie for the year thus far. Madame Web follows Dakota Johnson as Cassandra Webb, a paramedic who develops clairvoyant abilities and must protect three young women who are destined to become heroes in the near future.

Madame Web PG-13SuperheroActionAdventure Sci-Fi 310 Cassandra Webb is a New York City paramedic who starts to show signs of clairvoyance. Forced to confront revelations about her past, she must protect three young women from a mysterious adversary who wants them dead. Cassandra Webb is written as a cynical, burnt-out person who has no ambitions to be seen as a hero. Her powers are thrust upon her unexpectedly. She reacts the way you'd expect a real person to, as she is unwillingly roped into a deadly adventure. Johnson plays Webb as frustrated, confused, tired, and just over it all. This is not a characterization seen in many superhero movies, and it gives Madame Web a comedic edge that is not entirely unintentional.

'Madame Web' Didn't Commit to Its Bold Ideas and Exciting Potential in the Spider-Man Mythos Close In spite of the efforts of Johnson, and a lot of talented people involved in the film like director S.J. Clarkson , and Sydney Sweeney, Madame Web fails to stand out in the right ways among the massive pool of superhero films.
