Well, all but the driving to the hospital and the card that was probably 8 minutes in.

In all fairness even though as far as I know Madame Web was received worse than Argylle I'm having a much better time watching this one than Argylle, which was just utterly dull and tedious and a chore to get through and I had to put it on hiatus after an hour. Madame Web is at least somewhat entertaining and even though it is a bad movie it at least makes me laugh. Not for the right reasons probably, but still. Like the scene early on in the movie where his friend or boss is driving an ambulance and gets hit by a semi and she runs over to him and starts CPR and does it for like 10 seconds before her paramedic colleague pulls her off and says "There is nothing you could've done". I think the idea is to at least give them a fighting chance before calling it quits, but I guess they really didn't like their boss and I suppose even that 10 seconds of CPR looks better than just poking him with a stick.

The critics and audience thought that the CPR performed here was boring like at the training. In real life it should be like e.g. this, or two together, or funny and bloody. Anything would have been more exciting for the critics, and perhaps they'd given it one tenth of a percentage higher rating.

I was fortunate enough to see both Madame Web and Argylle back to back in the same evening, as my dominatrix was trying to be creative and wanted to add an extra pain and extra suffering for me. It's good that my hands were tied, because I was desperately trying to claw my own eyes out and rip off my ears. I kept repeating my safe word to stop this torture, but the word was "still better than The Marvels", so you can see how it was confusing for her. Anyway, I watched both movies and I will be looking for a new Dom. This one screwed up big time.

Well, I got through watching "Madame Web" and while far from a good movie it didn't turn out to be as bad as those 1/10 movies that Marvel has been putting like Ant Man Quantumania, The Marvels, Thor Love and Thunder etc. I'd say a 5/10 - perfectly passable entertainment, but nothing I'd probably want to watch again in this lifetime. To give credit where credit is due later on in the movie they do explain why the pregnant woman in the beginning is frolicking in the jungle. Does it make sense? Not really, but I suppose in comic science it does. So if you're on a date like D-magic and she offers you a choice between Argylle and Madame Web the decision is very easy: get a new date.

SPOILERS:

There's a lot of stuff in the movie that doesn't really make sense, but I have to ask why is she in wheelchair in the end? She falls to a lake or something and somehow a firecracker hits her face underwater (SIC) which costs her her eyesight, but nothing seems to happen that would've caused a spinal injury. I googled the character and apparently in the comics she is in a wheelchair and I suppose the director and/or scriptwriter were too lazy to come up with reason why she'd end up in one in the movie.

"Too lazy" is the correct answer on everything regarding this movie.
