Spider-Man: No Way Home2021

Verdict: 🥇 MUST SEE If you’ve been MCU’d to death, SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME might just be the cure. Holland’s Spider-Man has always been a topic of a very rookie teen crashing into a world he’s not ready for, getting in above his head, and then having to clean up the mess. It’s always been done with wit, style, and heart, but never to such a degree as in NO WAY HOME. The action follows FAR FROM HOME with intensity and creativity. As with the best superhero movies, you’re legitimately worried your hero and friends won’t make it to the end of the movie. Alfred Molina is a perfect presence as Doc. Oc, and Willem Dafoe is given all the time and tools he needs to play Green Goblin to perfection. So menacing, so unstoppable. Watts and the writers have proven they understood Raimi’s trilogy and the Amazing movies, and together were able to crochet an admirable love letter to the fans old and young. And what better way to give Tom Holland’s Peter Parker a fresh start than to literally cure the multiverse villains of their self-inflicted evil and clean the slate for his personal connections, so a new trilogy can explore a developed and improved Peter Parker. P.S. I was slightly disappointed with Michael Giaccino’s score. It packed several big punches, but felt like he was rushed in getting it done. I wish it would have been just a bit more refined.
