The setup
Four years after the world forgot his identity, an isolated and battle worn Peter Parker lives a solitary life in New York, fighting street level crime as a full time vigilante. However, the crushing emotional toll of his loneliness triggers a radical physical mutation, causing his spider powers to violently evolve as he struggles to control his changing body.
Overall, i thought this movie did very well. There were plenty of things about this film that reminded me a lot of the comic book stories.
Adding Frank castle was a genius move and one of my favourite aspects of this movie. Every single time he walked onto the screen i wished to see more of him. I would be happy watching them give frank castle a bigger part in future MCU projects. Tom holland as Peter Parke I am a little torn, because he does an amazing job when it comes to playing Spider-Man, but when it comes down to playing Pete it wasn’t clicking with me. I have always seen pete as kinda awkward and geeky and tom doesn’t convey that to me at all. Tom is a good actor and its no fault of his, it just hasn’t clicked with me yet There are some good looking shots in here too. Sometime when you’re watching a movie you find yourself thinking ‘this is exactly why these things need to be viewed on a cinema screen’ There were quite a lot of those moments. All in all I’m walking away from this one feeling very pleased with what they’ve done.
