SPIDER-MAN NO WAY HOME
Oh boy. This movie relies heavily on nostalgia to win the crowd over. SPOILERS HERE!!! I figured you have seen it already if not...you will not care about the spoilers at this point.
Positives:
- The performances here are really well played:
Tom Holland is a talent and he is really good as Peter Parker/ Spider-Man for sure. He is better as the befuddled Parker they he is Spiderman for sure.
Zendaya as MJ almost steals the movie. Her character is more interesting and more likable than Peter. She has grown into the role, and owns the screen with her acting ability.
- It was nice to see...Jamie Fox; William Dafoe (Who gives a lesson in acting); Alfred Molina; Andrew Garfield; and Toby Maguire again. Thats is it...nostalgia.
Negatives:
-The film is too long and it falls into that Marvel last fight scene habit of...Lets make it go on forever viewers will love it. And let's use nothing but CGI as a backdrop!! It is getting old.
-A convoluted story line involving 3 Spider-Men. Multiverse. DR Strange. Portals. Ned somehow being able to open portals.A death of a main character. Oh yes three high schoolers trying to get into a college. Waaay too much going on here. I blame Director John Watts and Writers Chris Mckenna and Erik Sommers..
-Again the story. Peter Parker is an idiot. Most of the problems here were caused by him. Changing the spell and reacting too slow at putting things back after things go wrong. I cannot feel bad for him in at least that part of the storyline.
-One more thing...hidden in all this...and it may hurt fans to say, as he has gotten older Jacob Batalon is not a very good actor. Stiff. I feel like he is just reading lines. Maybe he thought.."this story is stupid I give up" lol.
Well I liked the ending, it was sad, yet sweet. It just took forever to get there. 3 stars out of 5 for No Way Home. Mainly for again the nostalgia.
From the shadows as always thanks for your time.
