Madame Web is dead on arrival, failing to win over either critics or audiences in its opening weekend. The film is the fourth entry in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe (SSU), a franchise based around villains and antiheroes in the Spider-Man pantheon of characters. Loosely connected to the Marvel Cinematic Universe via the multiverse, as seen in Venom: Let There Be Carnage and Spider-Man: No Way Home, the SSU has not been nearly as successful as its counterpart and has proven to be highly controversial among the community of superhero fans.Madame Web and Sony’s Spider-Man Universe have become the laughingstock of Marvel fans. The cinematic universe first kicked off with 2018’s Venom and has since expanded to include various other characters from Marvel Comics. The franchise tends to focus more heavily on villainous characters from Spider-Man stories, perhaps picking up the scrapped plans for a series of films building up to the Sinister Six that was meant to be a part of Andrew Garfield’s Amazing Spider-Man universe. While Sony’s Spider-Man Universe may have once had some potential, the results of its first four films make it plain to see that audiences have rejected the franchise. As a result, it is time for Sony to cut its losses and bring its cinematic universe to a merciful end.In addition to no one wanting to see films like Madame Web, the installments of the Sony Spider-Man Universe have also been critical failures. It would be one thing if Sony’s superhero movies were well-received but only appealed to a small audience. This simply isn’t the case, however. With four films under its belt so far, the highest Rotten Tomatoes score that the SSU has mustered is a measly 57% approval rating for Venom: Let There Be Carnage. Its 2018 predecessor comes in second place with 30%, Morbius comes third with 15%, and Madame Web comes at the bottom of the pack with an abysmal 13%. It is becoming increasingly clear that Sony isn’t concerned with the quality of its Spider-Man-adjacent movies, but rather hopes to sell tickets based on name recognition alone. Audiences, however, are growing wise to the studio’s marketing ploys, which are full of empty promises and false advertising.
