Wild Wild West (1999)

Based on the homonymous TV show (1965-1969).

In the aftermath of the American Civil War, two government agents, one a captain and the other a gizmo and disguise expert, investigate the kidnapping of several scientists. They find out that a mad Southern inventor who lost his legs during the war is behind the kidnappings and has an evil plan.

The idea of associating a legless inventor with spiders is interesting; also, the film is not devoid of visual flair, and some of the one-liners are funny.
