Madame Web review

 


After the disaster that was Morbius Sony is back with another attempt at it's seemingly never ending attempt to create their own universe of villains turned anti-hero projects the latest Madame Web is not a good step in the right direction however. Now first off let me begin by saying that Madame Web has one of the worst villains I think I've ever seen. His motivations are dumb, his acting is horrendous and as a whole he just did not work whatsoever. There's also some very strange moments where it's like he is speaking but his lips aren't even moving which was so odd that it really took me out of the movie. There is some positives here and while they are few and far between I will say that Dakota Johnson is actually okay here..kinda. I mean she's not great or anything but she does do okay with the script given to her. 

Y'know Madame Web as a whole is just uninteresting and not thought provkoing whatsoever. It's really bland and forgetable which is the worst kind of piece of entertainment if you ask me. As for the story it revolves around Cassie Webb (Johnson) who is a Paramedic in NYC. Her life changes when she discovers she has powers that allow her to see things before they even happen which really comes in handy when a killer is on the loose and looking to kill 3 at first random teenagers who pose a threat to him in the future. It's really conviluted and undercooked it's not even worth trying to think too much about it. 


Action wise it's not great either with edits that almost gave me a headache and no real sense of threat as everything had already been played out in a vision of Cassie's beforehand which eliminates any danger or tension whatsoever. Overall Madame Web is just there, it really has no reason to exist other than for Sony to try and continue this disaster of a Spider-verse they've been attempting to create and all without the most important part..Spiderman! Dakota Johnson saves this from being something truly awful. Madame Web is the worst movie of 2024 thus far and is not worth your time!

Fighting with my Family review

Image
The Knight Family are a unique bunch to say the least. Not only do all the children wrestle but so do the mother and father. And out of that we got Paige. Florence Pugh stars as Saraya Knight a young girl from Norwich England. Her brother Zak Knight played by Jack Lowden has one dream. Of making it to the WWE and he will do anything to make it all possible. At it's core Fighting With My Family is exactly what the title says. A family who fight as we're shown the entire Knight family wrestling in small venues in Norwich. Ricky Knight who is the father wants so much for his kids to succeed and after sending tapes to WWE for them to review and possibly accept both Saraya and Zak for a tryout the family gets it's wish as WWE visits the UK for it's European tour. This is when we meet Vince Vaughn's character who is the guy in charge of recruiting talent and pushing them to see how far they can go and how much they have in them to make it to the top.

With that being said let's get into it Gotham finally returns for it's fifth and sadly last season and with a run of only 12 episodes there is a lot to get through and eventually wrap up. It begins on Day 391 of No Man's Land as the final battle for Gotham comes to a head as Captain Gordon, Harvey Bullock, Riddler and even Penguin all suit up and get loaded for combat as all men led by many more GCPD officers open fire from a top a massive wall as Jim Gordon says ''For Gotham'' this of course is going to be the end of the season but let's go all the way back to day 87 of No Man's Land where we see Gordon talking to someone on a radio.

Superman & Lois 3x13 : What Kills You Only Makes You Stronger review

Image
                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. Season 3 of Superman and Lois has come to and end in the most devastatingly epic way. The finale opens up with Sam Lane telling Lois and Clark that Lex Luthor is nowhere to be found. Clark adds more to this by saying he can't hear him either but Lois is not convinced after all Lex did literally threaten her at the end of last weeks episode. A meteor shower is planned for the evening right at the center of Smallville town so you just know something is going to go down then and as expected something major does go down but more on that a bit later. As the boys leave the house Lois tells Clark that she is ready to be intimate again and the two fly off to a private secluded area where they can be together for the first time since Lois had her breasts removed due to her cancer. It's a tender moment and one that does feel very important fo...
