I went to this on opening night and I was the only person in the theatre. I am not surprised as I had only found out about this movie through searching Google for new movie releases.
I can see how it may not be liked by some but I really enjoyed it. I found that there was enough character building to keep me invested without overdoing it. Another reviewer mentioned that there was only 30 seconds of screen time for Sting without exaggeration. It was for that reason I almost didn't go to see this and I'm glad I ignored it as it WAS a total Exaggeration! I loved Eight Legged Freaks and Arachnophobia. This movie was not as good as those but it was still good and much better than you would find on Netflix these days. I also loved the nods to Arachnophobia.
This is not a perfect movie, but for me it checked all the boxes. Realistically, I want to be entertained by a movie and this one did not let me down. I really wish they did a better job with the marketing. If there was a sequel I would not hesitate to buy a ticket.
