Spider-Man: Homecoming Review

 

Ladies and gentlemen i've been on a bit kick of watching and reviewing films that I haven't seen and reviewed. As such im going to let this streak continue simply because there are no new films coming out and well since i'm both a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and that the third Spider-Man film to be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is currently film I thought that i'd take a look at the very first Spider-Man film to be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and so join me as I review "Spider-Man: Homecoming" enjoy.

The plot of the film is A villain called The Vulture is making guns from alien technology and it's up to Spider-Man to stop him before it's far to late. I do that this film is really good when it comes to the films story but at the same tine they of this film in my opinion at least isn't as hard hitting as the plot of say Spider-Man (the 2002 which was called simply Spider-Man) or Spider-Man 2 for that matter but i give this film credit for not telling Spider-Mans / Peter Parkers origin story.

Starring in the film is Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes / Vulture. Also starring in the film is Jon Favreau as Harold "Happy" Hogan , Zendaya as Michelle , Donald Glover as Aaron Davis , Jacob Batalon as Ned , Laura Harrier as Liz , Tony Revolori as Eugene "Flash" Thompson , Bokeem Woodbine as Herman Schultz / Shocker II , Marisa Tomei as Aunt May Parker and Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man.

As for what I thought about the acting in the film it was honestly exactly as good as I thought that it would be. Tom Holland kills it as Peter Parker / Spider-Man and I can honestly say that Tom Holland is the only actor so far who is both a good Peter Parker and a good Spider-Man with all of the other actors either being a good Peter Parker or a good Spider-Man , as for the rest of the cast they do a really good job playing their characters.

Doing the CGI in this film is Sony Pictures Imageworks , Yannix , Imageloom Visual Effects , Rotomaker , Digital Domain , Luma Pictures and Method Studios. The CGI in this film was in my opinion at least really freaking good i'm not going to say that the CGI in this film was perfect because it honestly wasn't since you can very easily when there using  CGI character and when it's the actual actor in the scene.

One of the things that I think none of us as expecting to see when going into the film Captain America: Civil War was to see a smoking hot version of Aunt May. Even tho I like many of you are used to seeing a much older and wiser version of Aunt May I think given the fact that Peter Parker is much younger in this film then it makes sense that the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of Aunt May would be alot younger as well.

Now then i've given this film alot of praise thus far but this film isn't a perfect film like for example this version of Peter Parker is far to good looking. I know that saying Peter Parker is to good looking is very minor issue and your right it is a very minor issue but at the same time Peter Parker is meant to be this average looking kid who can't the girl this version of Peter Parker looks like he can get any girl he wants as such if they wanted to truly make Peter Parker as nerdy as this film makes him out to br then they should have found someone who isn't as good looking as Tom Holland or failing that make him look like a real nerd and have him dress like a real nerd and have lacking in confidence this way when he does put on the Spider-Man suit and he's acting confident it would sell the fact that perhaps Spider-Man and Peter Parker are perhaps two very , very different people.

One of the things that I honestly liked about this film was the fact that this film gives Peter Parker a father figure in Tony Stark / Iron Man. This is honestly something that i've personally not seen in other Spider-Man media or in Spider-Man comics but I do feel that this idea works well because now going into Avengers: Infinity Wat Tony Stark would have more to loose since he would be loosing someone who he sees as his kid and Peter would loosing someone who has been like father to him.

This film has a running time of two hours and thirteen minuets and twenty eight minuets which I felt was a bit to long for this story. I say that because I didn't think that there was enough story to cover two hours and thirteen minuets and twenty eight minuets if anything I feel that this film could have told it's story in well under two hours and you'd have loose nothing important whatsoever but since the film is two hours and thirteen minuets and twenty eight minuets that means that the film can feel a bit boring and it can also feel like it's dragging on at times but that's just my opinion tho.

Now then boys and girls since this is an action film that means that I have to talk about the action that's in the actual film itself. In my opinion the action in this film is honestly really and the action in this film is on par with what you'd expect to see from the Spider-Man character but that's also the issue because it's the kind of action that you expect to see from the Spider-Man and as such the action doesn't seem as impressive or as cool as it perhaps could have been but with that being said it is still pretty cool seeing all of those cool in the films many action scenes.

Overall this is honestly a really good film and it's a huge step up from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in my opinion. However I did have some issues with the film as i've pointed out in this review but at the same time there are plenty more good things in the film as just like with the bad things that are in this film i've pointed the good things that are in this film in this review as well as such this film gets a 7.5 out of 10 from me , as for where I got the images that I used in this review well i got all of the images that I used in this review from the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page which I highly recommend since all of the images on the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page are all really high defiition.
