This weekend (March 1-3) we are showing the movie Madame Web. Showtimes are Friday and Saturday at 8:00PM and Sunday at 2:00PM. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have been paying attention, you will know that Madame Web has not gotten great reviews. So, how do I convince you to give this movie a chance? Here is a review that may convince you that Madame Web is worth your time: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
From Anthony J. Salazar – It\u2019s fair to say that audiences have learned to adjust their expectations for Sony\u2019s live-action Marvel Universe. From the two Venom movies to Morbius, they at their worst feel like the bottom of the barrel of what modern comic-book films have to offer. However, at their best, they feel like oddball throwbacks to the early 2000s with charming, sometimes totally accidental comedy. Scenes like Venom giving a \u201ccoming-out\u201d speech at a rave and Matt Smith showing off his vampire muscles while dancing to \u2018EKSE\u2019 by Off The Meds have created a meme culture around this franchise, boosted by the fact that it\u2019s forced to constantly tiptoe around connections to Spider-Man (with him still being shared with Disney and the MCU) despite being officially called \u201cSony\u2019s Spider-Man Universe.\u201d It all makes for a sort of fascinating dumpster fire that you can\u2019t look away from, and this continues in Madame Web. The thing is, though, Madame Web has a lot of surprising merits. We\u2019re just going to get this out of the way now and clarify that this is yet another messy Spider-Man spin-off from Sony, but one that\u2019s actually quite entertaining and dare I say, maybe even a new guilty pleasure? Plus, the film\u2019s sense of humor goes from being genuinely funny to accidental in the way you can already see the waves of memes and online reactions. Madame Web is by no means the worst the genre has to offer. It\u2019s got an entirely forgettable villain whose motivation is explained in single lines of dialogue, a dull origin story, and an ending that just might contradict the whole ethos of what director S.J. Clarkson was going for. This is true! What also can\u2019t be denied, though, is how entertaining it can be \u2013 for both the good and the bad. Madame Web is destined for endless memes and the \u201cso bad it\u2019s good\u201d treatment. People tried to do the same with Morbius, yet in this case, we have a movie that you can tell had a unique vision at first but was stumped by Sony\u2019s usual studio antics. It\u2019s not a good film, but will it be a good time when you watch it with your friends? That answer could be a hard yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
