Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

I won't complain about the continuity error within the MCU...because no one really cares least of all myself.
Well, how do we do this. I mean, it is refreshing that Garfield is gone and with him the Spider-Bully. For Marvel comics fans, it really hurt watching Garfield bully and taunt his victims.
Now we have a Spidey that is, well, nice. Holland is able to be funny and wise-cracking without seeming like a, well, a Flash Thompson. With that it beings us back to the source material.
In other words Holland puts the "friendly" back in "your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man." And I think the MCU was well aware of this, given the time they took to make sure everyone knew Holland was going to be the hero that everyone loves.
And then Keaton does a great vulture from his origin to his demise he seemed to do everything he could to really become the character.
My only complaints were the supporting cast. Aunt May I can accept with a moderate grudge because she is a great actress...
But Tony Revolori doesn't seem....built enough to be Flash. He's more the bully of the Millennial generation that uses words and little more and...when it comes down to it, even those are vapid.
What's that old adage, "sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never harm me." Millennials I guess have never heard that.
Flash is supposed to be that big bully jock that hits his prime in high school and, a decade later, delivers the pizza when you go home to visit your folks...this Flash has a future.
And the MJ tease at the end...it went a little too far away from the character in looks and personality to sit well.
Still, on the whole the movie is a breath of fresh air in its distance from Garfield's rendition and at times, Holland was even able to pull off almost a James Bond quality while still portraying a kid over his head.
Like all MCU movies, however, the pay off is the humor.

Disappointing return for the webslinger. After the dramatic introduction in Civil War this film feels like an excercise in keeping the coffers full.
Unlike the Toby Maguire films this incarnation feels flat. It never manages to really put our superhero in any real peril...it just goes through the motions and ticks boxes. Granted it is mostly enjoyable, but did we need it??
No.
The suit and inclusion of Iron Man takes away from what is great about Spiderman. The fact he has to juggle school, work, realationships is what kept him grounded...
He does not need Iron Man's suit or him flying in to save the day!!
Also, why does he not have a spidey-sense?!? He gets nailed left, right and centre!
* To conclude; disappointing, Yes, as Spiderman just became another member of Tony's team...when he should stand alone.
