Cobweb (2023)★★★☆☆
This is a weird movie and I feel weird about it. I definitely was on the fence between three and four stars, but ultimately I think it’s more of a high three stars than a full four stars.
I thought the performances were all pretty good. Peter and Miss Devine especially, but really, everyone was good (and weird). The story was interesting, if not wholly original. The direction and camerawork was quite well done.
But it had an odd pacing to it, and the truly scary moments didn’t happen until the last twenty or thirty minutes, and then they ALL happened quite rapidly. I do still think this is worth a watch, even if it wasn’t perfect and I don’t quite have the words for what I think it could have done better,
