Spider-Man Homecoming
I saw the movie today and definitely enjoyed it! Lots of fun, decent story, a few surprises along the way. It's a very different story than I've seen before for Spiderman, which is a good thing. It's not just redoing the exact same thing, so I didn't find myself really making comparisons.
For people still planning to see it, stay until the very end of the credits. I really enjoyed the end clip for this movie! One of my personal favourites, I think. (Though there may be other opinions on this matter.)

Most likely not catching it in the theater since I still have yet to see Civil War and want to keep things in order, but it's on my schedule to check out sooner than later.
That reminds me, for people who have seen Civil War,

I just saw this movie on Friday, and I liked it a LOT. the beginning might be my favorite part. There was a lotttttt of language but other than that it was a great movie in my opinion. the soundtrack went with the scenes really well and it felt very realistic (most of the time). It caused me to laugh a lot, but that may be just me in general and the fact that it was late at night (we saw it at a drive-in theater) and I get giggly when I'm tired. Was anyone else surprised that Peter Parker is only 15!?

I noticed that, too. Not necessarily worse than the typical PG-13 film, but both this and Guardians 2 seemed to have way more cursing/inappropriate language than previous entries in the MCU. I wouldn't want it to become a trend across the board, but while I would've enjoyed the movies just as much without it, the Guardians are a bunch of aliens and scoundrels and Andy Dwyers and Spider-man is full of teenagers, so it kind of "fits" those better than it would Thor or Cap.Parakeet wrote:There was a lotttttt of language but other than that it was a great movie in my opinion.
Captain America 4 is going to be R for language to complete his character arc from Age of Ultron.

I thought Aunt May's swearing was one of the best lines.

I thought this was really good. It was my first Spiderman movie so I don't have anything to compare it to in that regard, but as an MCU chapter it was solid. And I didn't find myself not connecting with anything because I didn't have previous Spiderman exposure, so that means it was done well as a first solo movie.
This was a good way to do the integration; rather than rehashing the beginning of the story yet again credit the audience to know enough of the important stuff in general to be able to pick it up midway. So we get not an origin story of the powers, but an introduction of the character. He's already been doing his thing around his city, now we're bringing him into our thing in the larger MCU world.
The Spiderman theme song during the Marvel logo was fun.
I like the Tom Holland casting, he did good as the street level superhero trying to work out his place in the bigger picture while balancing being a high school kid. And I bought him as a high school kid, which is the important part of the Spiderman character. He brings a different perspective to the whole hero thing, being a kid not one of the adults and dealing with regular life stuff alongside the hero stuff. I thought it all worked really well here.
I kept looking for a Mary Jane appearance but she never showed up, but then I wondered is the Michelle girl going to play that part in this version of the story? She said her friends call her 'MJ' that caught my attention.
