The Madame Web Rotten Tomatoes Score is in and much like the impending box office, it isn’t good.
With 62 reviews currently accounted for, the Madame Web Rotten Tomatoes Score is at 16%; the Audience Score will become available this weekend with the film’s official release in theaters.
Update: With 103 reviews, the Madame Web Rotten Tomatoes Score is at 17%; the Audience Score is now available since it got released on Valentine’s Day and currently is 60%.
Box office just as bad
Regarding the box office, it’s estimated to open anywhere from $15 million to $25 million if they’re lucky.
Similar to The Marvels: Where are the fan girls?
Similar to The Marvels, the fan girls aren’t going to show up in droves to see this.
The girls, women and families didn’t show up for The Marvels (facts) and only the fanboys will show up for Madame Web as the only thing the movie has going for it is the hot cast.

What do the negative reviews say?
A selection of the Top Critics offer:
Madame Web is a laughable affair. Intentionally so, at times. But for much of its two-hour runtime, the laughs come at the expense of the arguably capable work being put in by its charming lead. – AV Club
Madame Web is burdened by too many threads and not enough fun. Still, it could be worse. It could be Morbius. – Mashable
Madame Web embodies the pitfalls of mainstream superhero cinema: films not driven by story and character but seemingly by studio mandates, and franchise considerations. – Deadline
Nobody in this movie pops, or crackles, or snaps, or finds ways to energize the blah blah. The action’s not much; the acting’s minimalist bordering on somnambulant – Chicago Tribune
A car crash would be more interesting. Madame Web is a fender bender — nothing calamitous, just a time suck. An annoyance. A waste. – Austin Chronicle
Not only is the latest addition to the Marvel canon lacking a true emotional core, it’s devoid of many key elements that make a movie successful in the translation from the screen to the audience’s psyche. – The Wrap
It is the Cats: The Movie of superhero movies. Not a single decision seems of sound mind. Not a single performance feels in sync with the material. – Rolling Stone
Today, I owe Morbius an apology, because it turned out that Sony Pictures just needed a little more time and a whole lot of misplaced confidence to make an even worse Spidey spinoff, the astoundingly abysmal Madame Web. – Globe and Mail
Mostly, the movie is a Pepsi ad strangely populated by performances turned to low volume. Johnson, so likable in fare as varied as 50 Shades of Grey and Suspiria, is a minimalist performer. Her casting here is an unfortunate mistake. – Vanity Fair
Madame Web was never going to touch the relatively high-concept, Disney-made Avengers movies… But guess what? Tickets still cost just as much as they would for a more canonical Marvel movie. So why settle for the knock-off? – Variety
