Review of Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) by Diana G — 30 Nov 2017

SpiderMan Homecoming was a surprise for me. I had seen the trailers, but the movie was so much better. Very faithful to the comics, it brings a breath of fresh air to a character that was getting stale after all the sequels and reboots.

Tom Holland brings a fun, clumsy, courageous side to the character, which was sorely needed for it to properly intersect with the rest of the MCU. The rest of the cast is very well written too, and even the villain feels right.

Happy and Tony Stark help give weight to the movie, introducing an interesting dynamic.
