The wear and tear that the movies are having Marvel It even makes a dent in a Sony film, in which Marvel partially participates. Neither Dakota Johnsonla hija de Don Johnson y Melanie Griffith, ni Sydney Sweeney, de Euphoria and in the current success in cinemas of With everyone except youthey manage to save from disaster Madame Web.
They didn’t even include a post-credit scene.
We are in New York, and Peter Parker does not appear, but another Parker does (Ben, who was the uncle). Whether this leads to a sequel, or to integrate these characters into the spider multiverse, will depend on how it goes with the public.
As he already did with Morbius y Venom, Sony appeals to individuals who are not very protagonists in Marvel comics. The two mentioned and Madame Web are like marginal characters.
But something has changed. If in the original Madame Web was a blind old woman who moved in a wheelchair and had strange psychic powers, now she is the young actress of Fifty Shades of Greyis a paramedic and drives an ambulance.
Cassie (for Cassandra) who experiences visions of terrible things, which are about to happen, but, and when there is a but, there is hope, with enough notice to prevent them.
And if his abilities include being able to “be in more than one place at the same time,” the question is how did he acquire those powers?
The bad guy, who has a nightmare that three spider superheroines will kill him.Everything starts as in Raiders of the lost ark, in some lost place in the Amazon jungle, in Peru. There are no Indians, but Constance (Kerry Bishé) is looking for nothing more than a spider that would have healing properties. It’s not easy to find it. And the scientist, eight months pregnant, disbelieves in the myth that Las Arañas live there, “spider men who run through the treetops.” He who doesn’t believe doesn’t know what he’s missing.
All this is the beginning, and it ends badly. Betrayed by a member of the expedition, Ezekiel Sims (Tahar Rahim, with such a great resemblance to Nico Del Caño, that I couldn’t stop thinking about the left-wing deputy throughout the screening, every time he appeared), who wants the spider, but with other less benevolent purposes, Constance is killed by Ezequiel there, in the middle of the jungle, but not before being bitten by a spider.
With his mouth open. The girls, together with Madame Web, on the subway in New York. How scary. Before dying, The Spiders – who, like witches, do not exist, but they do exist, do exist – take her to give birth to the water.
And the actions move to a future, which is actually a current past, because it takes place in New York, in 2003. Constance has transmitted the powers of the spider to Cassie, her daughter, who is now 30 years old. How do her premonitions and powers awaken? She has an accident and she dies – for a few moments, eh, because the movie has to continue – and when she wakes up, just after a while, she already glimpses what is going to happen in the immediate future.
Premonitions
Assuming that the premonitions are of the type from the saga of Final destinationbut with less morbidity because you have to herd kids to the cinemas, the fact that it is like a repetitive deja vu even makes you think about time spell, The Groundhog Day.
Sydney Sweeney is quite wasted in the film.But here we are talking about another type of groundhog.
Madame Web It fails where a superhero movie, or at least an action movie, cannot fail. The script does not go beyond Ezequiel’s pursuit of the three teenagers with whom he has recurring nightmares, in which they kill him in the future: Julia Cornwall (Sydney Sweeney), Anya Corazon (Isabela Merced) and Mattie Franklin (Celeste O ‘Connor), but the action is rather scarce and the effects… If they complained about the Ant-Man…
