“Madame Web” (*** out of four) was a superior Marvel comic-book adaptation about an EMT worker (Dakota Johnson) who has a near-death experience and begins to demonstrate signs of clairvoyance and realizes she needs to save three teenagers (Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, Celeste O’Connor) from a deadly adversary (Tahar Rahim) who becomes a threat to NYC as a whole. Well-told as it neatly weaves in character development with the expected spectacular special effects and action in its second half. Anchored like a rock by Johnson who gives another first-rate performance. Unfairly maligned by most critics and fun for Marvel and comic-book fans.
