Review of Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) by Axet — 29 Jul 2017

It used to be adults made these kind of movies for general audiences, but now geeks make them for geeks, which you have to be to go for this junk! It's an uninspired, juvenile, scattered, weakly plotted, unsuccessful attempt at humor, typical way over-the-top action, annoyingly pc mess.

The Peter Parker character was always supposed to be a teen. Tobey Maguire, the man boy, was just right to walk the line between that and also be believable and worthy as a superhero. The new actor is young and underwhelming, and the title should be "Spider-Boy".

It's so very stale of Marvel to be relying on the same computerized suit shtick as Iron Man not to mention Downey Jr. yet again playing that character in a movie falsely titled Spider-Man whatever. And contrary to jackass opinion it's not so clever tying all these superheroes together and Marvel has become sickeningly contrived bending over backwards to do so with any ties to reality and plausibility increasingly disregarded.
