Cobweb - A production where tension and fear are insufficient and mystery is successfully reflected

I remember a saying that whatever happens to a person comes from curiosity, but without curiosity it must be very difficult to learn and discover things. We all know how curious children are, especially when they observe their surroundings with curious eyes. And when they start to experiment with what they observe, nothing can stop them, because their curiosity overrides even pain and fear.

Peter is an energetic and curious eight-year-old boy. His curiosity is so triggered that it overrides even fear. As you may have guessed, Peter's story is the main plot of the 2023 movie Cobweb.

The thriller, horror genre production actually has more mysterious aspects in its story. You are tossed back and forth like a tennis ball between a family of 3, consisting of a mother, father and child. This turns into a great pleasure while watching the movie, but when it becomes ordinary; it loses its horror and suspense aspect and suddenly turns into a movie that stands out with its massacre scenes.

You know the movies where death happens and is shown a lot, I'm sure you've seen at least one such production. After a while, the mundane deaths and the details of the deaths get boring and the story ends in the same line without any variation. The movie Cobweb also becomes quite ordinary after taking the horror and suspense off the shelf.

The script of the movie is good, and with the mysteries that the director adds, you can't decide who is good and who is bad. This feature of the movie manages to keep the audience on the screen. It is hard to predict the change between a few minutes before and a few minutes after and they have successfully triggered the sense of curiosity.

But when everything becomes normalized and you take sides, the story suddenly becomes mundane and the actors start acting ridiculously one after the other. A production that could have been much more successful falls below mediocre after these moments. It turns into a madman's attempt to kill everyone who comes to the house.

However, if the family drama that emerges right after the horror and tension could have been better staged by incorporating the past into it, I could say that the movie offers great viewing pleasure and makes you feel the horror as much as possible. A female being who lives the drama and who is not clear what kind of creature she is suddenly turns the place into a bloodbath.

I liked the development of the story in the beginning and middle of the movie, I didn't like the conclusion. The final scenes made me feel like I was watching another movie. The way the mystery was added was good and kept the movie from being predictable until the end.

The way 8-year-old Peter overcomes fear through his sense of curiosity is successfully portrayed and reflected. Woody Norman, the child actor who brings him to life, did the best he could. I can say that he had a successful performance about what curiosity can do to a person. However, I find it inadequate in the story that the sharp turn that a child of that age exhibits is not explained in the film. It is certain that the U-turn that someone will show in their behavior for any reason will have causes and consequences. The transition to the consequences without showing the reasons decreased the momentum of the movie.

If I keep the ending of Cobweb separate, I would definitely recommend you to watch the movie, but since I can't keep the ending of the movie separate; I am in favor of you making your own decision about watching the movie. The movie is successful up to a point, but when the big picture is revealed by adding the ending to the story, it falls short. I'm torn between a good movie and a bad movie, and I think it's appropriate to call it mediocre. Thank you for being here and reading, and I wish everyone who will watch the movie a good time. May you get the most pleasure from the life you live and the movies you watch!
