In a switch from the typical genre, Madame Web tells the standalone origin story of one of Marvel publishing's most enigmatic heroines. The suspense-driven thriller stars Dakota Johnson as Cassandra Webb, a paramedic in Manhattan who develops the power to see the future... and realizes she can use that insight to change it. Forced to confront revelations about her past, she forges a relationship with three young women bound for powerful destinies... if they can all survive a deadly present.

Critics Consensus

Madame Web's earnest approach to the title character's origin story has a certain appeal, but its predictable plot and uneven execution make for a forgettable superhero adventure.

Audience Says

Madame Web isn't a groundbreaking superhero movie, but it does a decent job of telling an entertaining origin story.

This clairvoyant superhero origin story starring Dakota Johnson is a failure in just about every way.

Time Out

Johnson tries to evoke Cassandra’s inner turmoil, and the scenes between her and Scott offer glimpses of a more promising project. But any potential gets buried early, beneath clumsy exposition, clunky special effects, and disconnected editing.

Catherine Bray

Empire Magazine

But where the dialogue needed wit and spark, it has the kind of will-this-do one-liners ("Hope the spiders were worth it, Mom!") and tired backstories you get when the characters are too flat to flesh out with rounded personalities.

Rated: 2/5

Madame Web as a solo, unconnected MCU film is a less than mediocre and forgettable action movie.

Let’s start with the good news: the movie ends. Yes, what you’ve heard is sadly true. This movie is bad. Truly awful. Among the worst superhero films… ever.

Rated: 0.5/5

Rough Draft Atlanta

For as hard as she might be trying to hide it, Johnson’s seeming frustration is one of the only constants to be found throughout “Madame Web” – and I must say, I can’t really blame her.

I really wanted to like this movie because it had a chance to be super cool. But it was such a letdown. Also, learning that the movie was pretty much completely rewritten to this point was sad. From what I read, it was originally a much more thought out plot, but things just devolved. I keep waiting for Sony to wow me, but I just keep getting continually disappointed.
