I hope some heads rolled for this one: basically; in 2003; New York we meet paramedic  Cassandra "Cassie" Webb/Madame Web [Dakota Johnson:] as after this accident she begins to experience these strange goings on even when she has seen this situation play out before and learning more about herself, she can protect and educate others.

Generally speaking: what the hell do you want me to do with this script/storyline? On one aspect it is something safe and reliable and it plays out as such to give these character developments being something safe and reliable and the performances reflect that. But however on the other side of things; the character developments are shockingly appalling [just for the record yes I would use strong language to put across what I really mean but I can't.] So how do these characters get their powers/abilities and on top of that how does Webb/Madame Web learn to control her powers better? Because we don't see absolutely none of this; no literally we don't see any of this, without giving too much away Webb/Madame Web goes somewhere to find herself and then meet somebody and then comes back to the US; it's like they have missed out a massive chunk of the film, but then again I did wonder how they were going to fit everything into this film [I am far from an expert on these characters, so I am in from the perspective of this film better get a move on.] Because where we are and what I am referencing would be roughly 40 minutes of the film left, so yes on one hand the framework and pacing of this; one hand 116 minutes film allows for this dysfunctional stray teenagers/adult discovery aspect to play out, but on the other hand and consequently as I have already indicated it doesn't have much time to show us anything of continuous substance.

The only character developments, art and action; that I can speak of which is worth noting and highlighting is when Webb/Madame Web is in this much bigger world and she discovers more about herself; this is excellent and for the action we have bits and pieces on the walls and ceiling these are highly noticeable positives and Webb/Madame Web showing us a little bit of her power towards the later stages of this film to save these characters individually.

This film receives: 4/10, this film is mixed; I do question why we have some of these characters dancing on this table, when they haven't even had any alcohol and dancing for themselves/these boys, it just seems really tacky and yes I am open-minded, laid-back and easy-going. But whatever happened to getting to know these boys normally, no you have to dance on this table and come across as adult entertainers. But as I said to this person I watch some of this content with; this film is a linchpin/steppingstone to something else and on a quick side note the person I watched this film is said and I am paraphrasing here; it was okay but I digress; to cover my back I should point out this is how it looks/feels that doesn't mean that it is going anywhere, in actual fact I am not putting this on the performers, I am putting it on everyone else; but I hope this film doesn't go anywhere, because even though I have given it; what I have given it [speculation/opinion] I am hoping that it was just put out to try and recoup some of its budget back. But if it does get connected or highly doubtful it will get another project, but if it gets connected to another project, they would have to build up these characters so much just to go up to the standard of the character they are opposite, so yes what I am suggesting is they would have to do this in a project that isn't their own, which would possibly if they this route, they would run the risk of taking valuable time away from whomever's project it actually is. I mean now I have seen this film, I don't get its actual purpose, I mean there are no extra scenes to suggest anything will be connected to this project whatsoever. But having said that I am just taking two seconds to think about it and this is once again completely speculation on my part; but I just have this feeling that we may or may not see Webb/Madame Web in Venom 3 as of this content being first created hitting cinemas 08/11/2024, so if she does show up this is where I can see her appearing
