Another movie I needed to catch up on was Spider-Man Homecoming. I wasn't impressed with the second iteration of this franchise so I didn't rush out to see this reboot (3rd iteration). It was a very good movie which was helped by not retelling Spider-Man's origin. They did really well taking it back to it's roots as a teen taking on the mantle of a superhero. You also get a nice dose of Tony Stark/Ironman and Michael Keaton is excellent as The Vulture. The Vulture was a character that could really be corny if you aren't careful but I thought he was done really well. All the characters hit the mark for me and I enjoyed the humor and story. The movie is set in the marvel universe as it rightly should be and ties in nicely. Tom Holland really does a good job. He sells the exuberance you'd expect from the character. I am really glad I finally watched this one.
You forgot to mention how hot Aunt May was ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right. HOW could I forget. Aunt May is a hottie... :)
DeleteI'm thinking this was a complete reboot so this movie stands on it's own.
