Madame Web First Reactions Are Savage

Madame Web has been shown to the public for the first time, and it’s not a pretty sight.

The superhero film, which stars Dakota Johnson as a woman who can see the future, held its premier in Los Angeles on Monday 12th February.

In the process, it exposed early audiences to potentially the worst comic book movie of all time.

Film reviewer Chris Parker tweets “Madam Web is an embarrassing mess. Talented stars wasted on probably the worst comic book movie I have ever seen."

Actor and producer Matt Ramos tweets: “morbius was better,” referring to the critical and commercial failure that was Jared Leto’s vampire superhero movie from 2022.

It wasn’t all bad, however. Twitter user @FenixDy writes “Madame Web exceeds expectations!"

Madame Web is the fourth film in Sony’s shared Spider-Man Universe (SSU). It uses Marvel characters but isn’t officially part of the MCU.

Madame Web releases February 14th. After, Sony follows up its SSU with Kraven the Hunter on August 30 and Venom 3 on November 8. That's if continually poor reviews hasn't scared Sony off.

It goes someway to explaining why Madame Web was mocked on Saturday Night Live.
