The battle with the elemental of fire was bored and it deviates from the fight.

Spider-Man: Far From Home is a great movie. It plays off of Endgame well and is a great end to phase 3. The scene with Peter in the illusion was just... mwah. Bellissimo.

An overall great marvel movie and shows that they can still produce great quality movies after loosing so many characters in endgame and still touches on those points. They did a great job covering and acknowledging other avengers but, after the so called blip I feel like the Movie and characters acted like it never happened and everything was normal instead they should have covered the impacts a little better.

Spider-Man: Far From Home is an ingeniously good movie, making Spidey in the MCU a much more noticeable character, cause in the previous movie, he looked not very powerful.

Jake Gyllenhaal excels in his first superhero role (since ‘Prince of Persia’?) Tom Holland continues to be perfect as Spider-Man/Peter Parker — and in ‘Far From Home’, he’s raw and the most vulnerable he’s ever been.

With its high jokes-per-minute ratio, this may also be the MCU’s funniest entry yet. But it’s also trying to be emotional and dramatic. In the first half, it’s a decent globe-trotting, teenage romantic-comedy affair. Later, it becomes super comic-booky with dizzying but stylistic visual sequences. It may come down to personal preference whether you appreciate this tonal shift or if you think it’s tonally confused.

‘Far From Home’ also tackles relevant political themes (which I can’t spell out here because it could easily spoil the plot). If you don’t recognize them, the movie will definitely hammer down those themes one last time in the first end credits scene.

I really would’ve given this 4.5 stars, but as a hater of expositional dialogue, I couldn’t stand one character’s lengthy speech obviously meant to tell audiences what was happening. It was too in-your-face to be satisfying.

One thing that didnt sit right was when Peter gave the glasses to mystrio. Tony gave them to him as his last act and he just gives them away. I know that uncle ben wasnt shown to die in this universe but spider-man would never do something like that. There is a youtuber cosmonaut who said something very wise about spider-man you can tell if a writter get him if he choses Mary Jane over something else and in this movie he went for Mary Jane. Other then that the action scences performances and the villan where all great. The movie also had a good scence of humor which was fun to see this isnt top tier marvel but its still very good Expand

Spider-man: Far From Home: Summer Fling and Blockbuster

The Stream: Slow to get to the action and some comedic redundancy

The Big Screen: Very fun movie, great action sequences and furthers the MCU

The Final Bill: A must see in the theater for all of the action and intense illusions.

-S2S

It’s an end of an era. The final movie of the third phase of the beloved MCU. They called in the neighborhood webslinger to close it out, like my boy Ricky “Wild Thing” Vaughn. So let’s see how Marvel tries to upstage or accompany their blockbuster hit, Avengers: Endgame.

Let’s start with the stream, or the bad, part of the movie. Honestly, the issues are very minor. The movie moves very slowly for about the first 20-25 minutes. Let’s put it like this, my Peter-tingle was not working. But, quickly this inertia passes. The only other issue with this movie dealt with some of the comedic relief. Some comedy hits very hard and everyone in the theater laughs, but there are certainly times where the comedy missed the mark. Specifically, there are repetitive jokes by certain side characters that just aren’t funny, or they used the wrong take to engage the audience properly. These jokes don’t make the movie bad, but I did find myself saying, “Oh Lord, here this guy comes again with the same ol same ol.”

With that said, Marvel has developed a roster of directors and casts that perfectly create the desired theme or essence of the hero. For example, the coordination of Ant-Man being a great comedy/heist movie led by Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas and Michael Pena. In Far From Home, Marvel created a nearly perfect teen/summer love/coming of age superhero movie. Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon (Ned), for starters, played their roles very well. Just like in Homecoming, the actors play off each other quite well, even if MJ is slightly redundant and annoying. On top of that, the addition of Jake Gyllenhal, as Mysterio, was quite satisfying. He gave us superhero and super villain.

Now for the best part of the movie, the action. I was skeptical about how they were going to pull off Mysterio’s illusions, but Marvel did not disappoint. Several of Far from Home’s action sequences rival that of Endgame’s final battle – which says a lot. Marvel has cornered the market in great action sequences, especially with emotional or sentimental overtones. If for nothing else, the movie is worth seeing because of the action entertainment value.

Finally, this movie’s storyline is able to end and begin parts in the MCU universe. The end of Phase 3 was sad, but this movie gives hope to the future of the MCU. Can’t wait to see Peter, “thwiip” his ways through the rest of this MCU.

Long story short, this is just an all-around good movie. Marvel did it again. This movie is great for so many viewing audiences. I do not see how anyone will be disappointed by this movie. Get the biggest bucket possible at the theater and I promise you that you’ll get a refill and it still won’t be enough to satisfy you.

Not that they weren't tuned before, but this time it kind of sat better, and most importantly we got some progress in our relationship with M. J., which the previous film missed so much. Overall, this is an excellent film that I can recommend. But I still think Spider-Man should go outside the Avengers and go his own way. Expand

In comparison with Homecoming, this one has its own style and in someway succeeds in innovating both visual field and script.
Undoubtedly, this film is one of the biggest audiovisual shows of Marvel's films, the visual effects were excellent and the action scenes were great. Something that's appreciated is the cast, they got an excellent balance in all the development of each character un this film.
Now, if you weren't convinced by the mystery of Mysterio, you can not appreciated all that I mentioned before, and that is compressive, but in someway is a warning of something that is coming tomorrow.

SFFH is the first entry into this next phase of the Marvel Cibenatic Universe, and it blends in previous movie elements well.

Though Jake Gyllenhaal was excellent in his part, I had logical difficulties with his whole storyline. I'm also did not love the final CGI battle,which of course is unfortunate my de rigeur for the genre.

But the film is earnest. The background romance is sweet. There are other cute romantic side pkots. It feels like how a high school kid would process these situations.

Special effects are always getting better and they're great here. The main acting is great for the genre. The first post-Endgame film dutifully advances the franchise.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The MCU has now become so interconnected that it seems impossible to talk about it without spoiling the previous films. Heck, even the trailer for Far From Home came with spoiler warnings. So if you're the one person who hasn't got round to watching Endgame yet and you don't want to know any details about the "surprise" villain in Far From Home, spoilers ahead.

Still reeling from the events of Endgame and the massive weight on his shoulders of everyone wanting him to be the next Iron man, Peter is looking forward to the chance to not be Spider-man for a while and hang up his costume to go on vacation with his friends at school. But when elemental monsters appear to be attacking European landmarks, Nick Fury enlists Spider-man to help save the world with the new mysterious hero Mysterio.

But in the most shocking twist since it was revealed in Superman that Clarke Kent wasn't just a mild mannered reporter, it turns out the the famous Spider-man villain Mysterio is actually the antagonist of the film. He's a disgruntled Tony Stark employee who was manipulating Spider-man to obtain a dangerous A.I. designed by Stark which controls orbital weapons. So obviously Spider-man has to find Mysterio and save the day, whilst still trying to have fun on his trip and find a way to confess his feelings to MJ.

As a villain Mysterio is fine. He's not the show stealer like some of the other recent villains like Killmongerer or Thanos have been, but he's not a forgetful dud like Zemo either. Gyllenhall has enough charisma that he can pull off being both a melodramatic perfectionist yelling at his team to get his performance as Mysterio right but still be completely intimidating as a psychopath willing to kill anyone to get what he wants. Plus Mysterio gets a fantastic Arkham Asylum style of nightmare sequence where he forces Spider-man in to one of his illusions. It's full of so much twisted and creative imagery that it rivals Doctor Strange for the trippiest sequence of the MCU.

Though just like Homecoming, most of the films best moments comes from it being less of a superhero movie and more of a high school comedy. There's Ned who's still coming up with increasingly strenuous ways of keeping Spider-man's identity a secret. Flash is posting everything that happens to instagram whilst being an obnoxious whiny douche to everyone around him. And Brad the rival to Peter for the affections of MJ who has become far more butch than his classmates since he was one of the survivors of the snap.

But the real stand out of Peter's school group is MJ, with the film cementing Zendaya as being the best on-screen version of Mary Jane. Largely because her nihilistic charm and random irreverent comments make for some of the funniest moments in the film. Plus Zendaya and Tom Holland have a great on-screen chemistry, largely because they genuinely see like awkward teenagers stumbling through their conversations and never sure of what to say to each other.

Though in terms of capturing the character of Peter Parker from the comics, the MCU isn't quite there yet. Tom Holland is definitely the best on-screen version of the web slinger so far capturing both the quick wit of the web slinger and the relatable teenager that Stan Lee had always envisioned him to be. But a core aspect of the character has always been his ability and burden to overcome tragedy. They definitely make an attempt to capture this here with Tony Starks death casting a large shadow over the film, however through the films lighthearted nature it doesn't seem capable of reaching the heights of the franchises most memorable moments like Uncle Ben or Gwen Stacey which were essential building blocks for Spider-man in the comics. Holland has shown that he is capable of bringing dramatic weight to the character where he can, so I hope that the future films will be tonally confident enough to try capturing these moments.

But for anyone who enjoyed Homecoming, Far From Home continues to capture the same humour whilst also upping the scale with some more ambitious sequences. It's a lighthearted epilogue to the epic scale of phase 3 of the MCU and a strong promise of the continued potential for the future of the post-Endgame MCU.

Gyllenhaal was pretty good as Mysterio but there wasn't really anything in this movie that blew me away. Bout the only reason to go see it in theaters, IMO, is to see the end credits scene as I'm sure that they will be announcing some new material of stuff for the future of the MCU soon as Comicon. However after the big piece that was the last two Avenger movies, this felt more similar to what the Ant-man and Wasp movie was to me. Something that is nice to see but doesn't really do much for the overall Marvel product. It's not a bad movie but there's nothing spectacular here and, coming off Endgame, it was always going to be hard to maintain that level of enthusiasm for these movies. Expand

“What the fu - !”

After the devastating, yet spectacularly epic “Endgame”, I was incredibly curious about ‘Far From Home’ continuation on an event of a satisfying conclusion. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, Spider-man was always my favorite hero growing up. I think it’s the grounded side to the character that I connect with the most. When the movie began with a “I will always love you” by Whitney Houston, I was both hooked and emotionally moved.

‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ is a solid adventure that’s self aware enough of it’s own cheesy plot. From start till finish I was entertained with some of the jokes and how great of a character Peter Parker/Spider-Man truly is. The movie itself approaches ‘the snap’ with the sense of “meh, not a big deal”, type of humor, but grief is always afloat.

This also contains two post credit scenes that’s one of the best in the franchise. Trust me, everybody’s reaction in the cinema was priceless.

Tom Holland once again made the web shooter his own and with each entry seems to smooth into the character - capturing both the nerdy side with awkward humor, but also having the weight on his shoulders to live up to Tony Stark’s legendary image. I thought Holland is fantastic during the more hard hitting scenes when the situation gets too heavy for Peter, which reminds the audience the human side of the hero.

I also thought the scenes between Peter and MJ were so sweet and quirky. I’m glad Zendaya had more to do this time around than the first movie, and isn’t playing the stereotypical superhero's love interest.

Jake Gyllenhaal as Mysterio was both charisma and a absolute blast to watch. It’s unfortunate that I can’t go into the reasons why, as fear of taking away the mystery for people who haven’t seen it yet. Lets just say they did the character justice and Gyllenhaal (as usual) did a great job.

Jon Watts certainly has improved in terms of directing action sequences, which I would imagine it being tough for him since he came from a small budget background. While still a bit lackluster in parts, but the set pieces and the execution is much better. The way he directs the Mysterio segments can be best described as a trippy nightmare that some shots have implanted in my head as I’m writing this.

However, my issues with the first movie in terms of cinematography and humor sadly still stands - more bad this time as the journey around Europe with beautiful and breathtaking views. I’ve been to Venice a few years ago and they wasted the opportunity of showing it off. And again, the humor is always placed in the least appropriate parts after something dramatic happens.

There’s a few predicable scenes scattered through out and it’s annoying when the movie acts like it’s a huge shock.

Also, I can’t be the only one that thought the transition of the opening scene with Mysterio to Whitney Houston song “I will always love you”, was a little jarring and out of place.

Overall rating: Despite the issues, ‘Far From Home’ is another solid entry from our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. A few years ago in my ‘Homecoming’ review, I noted about that the heart and soul of the Raimi films were missing, although now with time passed and new thoughts, the heart and soul is always there, just presented in a different vision.

Works much better than Homecoming. Better villain, less ludicrous plot. Still too much teenybopper silliness, overplayed tropes and dumb in-"jokes". But overall, this has a semblance of a heart and is an entertaining way to pass a couple hours.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spider-Man: Far From Home is a very interesting Marvel film that takes on the tough role of following up the incredible Avengers: Endgame. It does an excellent job of portraying Peter Parker's feelings of wanting to just let it all fade and get on with his life. He's been an Avenger, and he had to see his beloved mentor die, and that was enough for him. Now he just wants to try and get with the girl he realized was the right one all along, and have a good time on his vacation. It's convincing enough to make it an enriching part of the film.

The problem comes with the main villain, Quentin Beck. His evil plan and all are interesting, but the problem is that his motives just don't really cut it. Basically, he just wants to convince the world he's a superhero using the tech of scientists who got pushed to the side by Tony Stark and yada yada yada. The thing is that you'd think that Tony dying to save the universe might change his mind, and that he might think that maybe Stark got his just desserts by, you know, dying, but no. He apparently still has this grudge that is so strong for no reason that he wants to kill a ton of people just to make the world think he's the new big superhero, just because one super rich and famous guy fired him. It just doesn't really click, and compared to other parts of the film, doesn't do a great job of following up on the trauma of the events of Endgame.

Overall, Spider-Man: Far From Home is a pretty solid entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with a good main protagonist, the usual incredible CGI, and funny sideplots, but certain things unfortunately keep the film from being on the same level as masterpieces like Civil War, Black Panther, and Endgame.

Os Vingadores acabaram, não há ninguem no controlo dos heróis e não existe nenhum herói que se assuma como o novo lider.

Contudo o filme é do Spider Man e Peter Parker não desilude. Pontos Positivos:
-A história em si é um ponto muito positivo. Peter apesar de tudo o que passou não deixa de ser um jovem e como tal quer viver a sua vida jovem, viajar ao lado dos amigos e conquistar a rapariga de quem gosta. Obviamente que pelo caminho meteram-se problemas criados pelo vilão Mysterio, Outro ponto que é positivo. O vilão é apresentado bem no inicio do filme e depois apesar de dar o ar de que é tudo muito repentino vemos a perceber que não, porque tudo já tinha sido planeado pelo mesmo. Gostei imenso do personagem em si apesar dos seus motivos serem meio bobos. Ultimo ponto positivo o envolver vários personagens e nunca esquecer a história no global e o final foi top, as lutas boas e o final após o final brilhante.

Pontos negativos:
-Não tenho nada demais a ressalvar, no entanto talvez algumas coisas que podiam ter sido explicadas com mais calma e ficou a faltar algo não sei bem o que.

Contudo foi um bom filme com tudo bem encaixado,divertido e bem trabalhado em todos os aspectos.

Ich habe den Film inzwischen erneut gesehen zur Aufwärmung von No Way Home. Die aktualisierte Review schreibe ich zum Zeitpunkt wo ich No Way Home zum zweiten Mal bereits gesehen habe. Es ist schwer den Film ohne Rücksicht auf No Way Home zu bewerten, aber ich werde es trotzdem versuchen. Dieser Film ist definitiv besser als Teil 1. Der Grund ist für mich ganz klar, der Fokus auf Spiderman und seine angeteaste Konsequenz. Dazu kommt noch eine verdammt gute Kampfszene gegen Mysterio, die mir definitiv im Gedächtnis bleibt.

Leider ist Mysterio aber gleichzeitig wieder das Problem des Films... es ist Tony Stark's Gegner. Ich gab dem Film damals eine überhypte 8 von 10. Diese ist inzwischen auf 7 geschwächt. Damals hing einfach die tolle Post-Credit Scene und die Kampfszene mit Mysterio im Gedächtnis. Inzwischen sehe ich die ganz klaren Schwächen. Trotzdem finde ich ihn besser als Homecoming.

Spiderman: Far From Home is a fun MCU movie, and a vast improvement over the lacklustre Homecoming.

This film being post-Endgame, it shows Peter Parker struggling to fill Tony Stark's shoes. He's still a reckless teen boy prone to stupid mistakes even though he's fought against Thanos in space. Also Peter Parker comes close with MJ, but Zendaya is clearly miscast as MJ, Spiderman's classic girlfriend (although she's never called Mary Jane, just MJ). Anyway, there's absolutely zero chemistry between Tom Holland and Zendaya.

I liked the movie's version of Mysterio. He fits well into the film's premise, because in an world full of gods and superheroes, if you don't shoot lasers from your hands you are nobody. And if you stage a show, people will believe anything. That's exactly what the master of illusions is about to do. But this political message isn't handled as well as in The Winter Soldier's "give up your freedom for security" theme, or Civil War's, well, civil war.

As with every MCU movie, Far From Home is a comedy action hybrid. It's consistently fun, with plenty of situational jokes, although it's not up to the comedy level of Deadpool.

My only complaint is that Tom Holland's Peter Parker still doesn't feature the classic Spiderman personality. He's supposed to be delivering fun one-liners, but there is nothing like it so far in the MCU's Spiderman. Then again, being arrogant and speaking one-liners was Tony Stark's second nature, so maybe if Peter Parker comes to really succeed Iron Man in the future, he'll become more like Tony Stark as well.

SPOILER ALERT: The mid-credits scene is a blast from the past. Spiderman's true identity is revealed to the world by J. Jonah Jameson, with actor J. K. Simmons returning from the Sam Raimi movies. I find it hard to believe that they haven't set up the Sinister Six hunting down Spiderman in the sequel. After all, Vulture and Scorpion are already present in the MCU, and we can't rule out Mysterio is dead for good. Get 3 more villains, and the Sinister Six are ready for Spiderman.

Overall, Far From Home is a good and fun sequel to Homecoming.

A good entertainment movie with hypnotic scenes particularly well done. A point on which it is necessary to calibrate, this spidey will not replace Tony Strack because Tony S is Marvel and Spidey is Sony. During the film the partnership is visible only in existing it can not bet on the future and suddenly the film takes the astonishing bet to do it so the end is not an end, but is an opening. As for Tom Holland, he plays correctly. Dispute of the boyfriend. The film is not adult, but aimed at teenagers. Everyone grew up. I would have preferred more adult. #SamRamiSpidey, I miss you.

Mieux que le 1er et dans la continuité de ce nouveau Spiderman. Un bon film de divertissement avec des scènes hypnotiques particulièrement bien réalisé. Un point sur lequel il faut'étalonner, ce spidey ne remplacera pas Tony Strack car Tony S est Marvel et Spidey est Sony. Pendant le film le partenariat est visible seulement en existant il ne peuvent pas miser sur l'avenir et du coup le film prend le pari étonnant de le faire du coup la fin n'est pas une fin, mais est une ouverture. Quant à Tom Hollande, il joue correctement. Différend de la petite ami. Le film n'est pas adulte, mais destiné aux adolescents. Tout le monde grandi. J'aurais préféré plus adulte. #SamRamiSpidey, tu me manques.

Spider-Man Far From Home is a kind of coda and not really a new beginning for the MCU after the Infinity Saga but unfortunately it doesn't risk anything and is happy by only showing the basics.

Far From Home it's indeed an evident evolution in scale on Homecoming but simply for the fact that it was necessary for the character after Infinity War and Endgame. That most of the film takes place in Europe is irrelevant. For the argument it doesn't really mean anything.

Holland is still a nice Peter Parker and his work is more personality than acting, let's be honest.
Gyllenhaal is a solid addition, although personally I would have liked to see him as another villain.

Phase 3 actually ended with Endgame. Far From Home doesn't establish anything new with the exception that we will continue to see Spider-Man in the MCU. It's an entertaining sequel but very passive.

What I really want to see now is if Marvel will reveal Phase 4 and the future of their great franchise in Comic-Con or D23.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spider-Man: Far from Home makes me regain confidence in this Spider-Man, which left me with a bad taste in my mouth with the regular Homecoming.

Far from Home hits many things, such as special effects and action, the villain, an interesting narrative, post-credits, a Spider-Man that has yet to mature...
In short, a good movie.

But it also has errors:
- Tertiary characters, like teachers or some students, are detestable, with a disgusting and tired mood.
- The relationship of MJ and Peter works decently (even without knowing the reason why they both like each other), but it lacks something to work just as well as the relationship between Peter and Gwen in "The Amazing Spider-Man".
- The dissonance between Spider-Man should only be Spider-Man or a new Iron-Man.

To whoever made the decision to make each half of the film feels like a single film, WE ARE NOT FOOLS!

I mean, even if we are, I doubt that there's a single person who would believe there's a superhero film that's an hour long! The teen-centric stuff that worked perfectly in Spider-Man: Homecoming didn't work here at all because everything was rushed and all over the place in the first half including the uninspiring fight scenes that made it quite clear that the first hour of the film isn't the entire film (as if this wasn't already clear!)

The film overall is dramatically bland. And that's also due to the same, and probably only, aforementioned major issue. That said, the film improves so much after the first hour. The second half is way better in almost every aspect. The CGI quality and the performances (especially from Tom Holland and Zendaya) are the only two things that are exceptionally great throughout the entire film.

To be honest, and despite all I've said, I can't say that I was bored at any moment. It's tasteless and underwhelming from both the action and dramatic standpoints; it's a fast-paced superhero flick that offers a lot of twists and surprises (regardless how poorly executed they are.) Spider-Man: Far from Home is a fun ride, but it's far from being one of Spidey's best films.

(7/10)

Scenes just kind of start and stop with no rhymeSpider-Man: Far From Home is a good movie and a good follow up to the events of Endgame. Here are the negatives. The first 30-45 minutes kinda suck. It’s paced awkwardly and incredibly rushed. Scenes just kind of start and stop with no rhyme or reason. It gets a whole lot better after that point though. Peter Parker still MOSTLY has the same internal struggle of Spider-Man: Homecoming. Peter is trying to figure out if he should be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man or be more than that and I wished they had not kept that internal struggle from the first film. Half of the jokes in this movie weren’t that funny to me. The visual effects in some areas were a little shotty but most were really good. My final issue is that there is a literal plot device item that comes into play about halfway through the movie and it doesn’t make a lot of sense at all for me. Here are the positives. The acting is really good. Tom Holland, Jake Gyllenhaal, Samuel L. Jackson, and Jacob Batalon are standouts from the film. Jake Gyllenhaal and Tom Holland have outstanding chemistry together and it’s a joy to watch them on screen together. I really hope those two work together again in the future. The rest of the actors do a good job. Most of the visual effects are really good for a Marvel movie. There is a sequence in the film that I think is absolutely amazing that I can’t talk about due to spoilers. The Elementals look lifelike and both Spider-Man and Mysterio’s visual effects look really good. I absolutely love Mysterio’s actual costume. It just looks amazing. The action in this film is really good. You understand what is going on and who is who in each action sequence. I like the story for this film. It has this kind of spy thriller vibe while mixed with a romance comedy that I think works really well together and I like how each destination the group goes to is essential to the plot. I do enjoy the score a lot even though I prefer Homecoming’s score. The cinematography is fine. It’s not extraordinary but it’s decent. The tone mostly remains consistent except for a couple scenes and after the first 30-45 minutes, the film is paced really well. Overall, Spider-Man: Far From Home is a good follow up to Endgame with great acting, action, and good visual effects even if the first part of the film sucks. I give Spider-Man: Far From Home a 7.5/10. Expand

Spider-Man: Far From Home is, on its own, a good superhero movie. It does nothing that the MCU franchise hasn't done before, but while that makes this film a bit disappointing, it is still a fun summer blockbuster.

While Zendaya and Holland's performances in this film are once again good, following up their solid acting in Homecoming, the writing of this film leads to unexplained changes in Peter's character. His character is inconsistent with other versions that we have seen of this character and the lack of explanation leads me to feel that these changes only occur to service the plot of this movie, without keeping the larger scope of the franchise in mind. In addition, some of the dialogue is poorly written especially between Jake Gyllenhaal's Mysterio and Holland's Peter Parker (but nevertheless, the film does nail the writing regarding the interactions between Peter, Ned, and MJ). The end result of this inconsistent writing is that the twists and turns of this movie become extremely predictable especially for someone who is familiar with Spider-Man lore (although I do concede that any film is more predictable if you go in acquainted with the source material). In trying to not be too harsh on this film (which I actually found quite enjoyable), the quips are well written and the special effects are amazing (the best we have seen form an MCU film since Doctor Strange).

Ultimately, Far From Home is another Spider-Man movie. Although I found the plot and pacing to be disappointing at times, I feel that this movie accomplishes what it sets out to do: make a fun summer blockbuster. The most important relationships in this movie are portrayed well and drown out the poor acting/writing that hurts others. If you enjoyed Homecoming, you will at the very least find this film enjoyable. It is far from a masterpiece and a bit disappointing, but it gets the job done and is worth a watch.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have to admit, this movie is pretty good, though not that pretty good since Spiderman is another victim from MCU.

I liked the point that Mysterio still count on his special effects like the comic, but i kinda didn't like on how the movie showing his plan. The story is almost similar to The Incredibles but at the post credit scene, that plan disappear and it almost seems like that he's changing his plan so suddenly by "unmasking" Spiderman publicly. At least J.K Simmons back :D

Another thing that i'm not following is Tony's intention on giving EDITH, the most intelegent, security AI in the world given to some young lad. Sure he's different but i still need some explanation on why Tony did that, also EDITH is somehow became less interesting in the halfway through the movie.

The movie isn't bad on my opinion, but at least they need more explanation for some parts of the movie.

A good end to Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In short, I like 'Spider-Man: Far from Home'. I do think it's someway off its predecessor, but I still had a suitably fun time watching this. Tom Holland remains top notch in the main role, with Jake Gyllenhaal, Samuel L. Jackson and Zendaya supporting strongly.

The story is a solid one, I like the concept of it; especially with Gyllenhaal's character. Some of the special effects do look a little questionable, but only in relation to how great the effects usually are in the MCU. Compared to an 'average' film, they still look good.

By sheer process of the elimination, it probably is one of my least favourite films from this universe. That's not a negative though, as I very much like it and keenly await the currently unnamed sequel.

The Incredible Hulk isn't very Incredible.
Edward Norton gives a good performance but the concept of Hulk itself just seems tired. There is no new outlook on the hero just simply a repeatedly mediocre take on a very one dimensiona

It does have some flaws, like some filler, predictable twists and one dimensional characters. But the great comedy, the good voice acting and the fantastic visuals makes it a pretty good and a fun watch for everyone!

As fun as Homecoming, with less humour and more action. I may have enjoyed this one more, basically because I thought Mysterio was amazing. On the other side, it doesn't have the first film's charm.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Much better than the 1st movie. It has better action, but it was lacking in the comedy, the part from Tony was also bland and dry, MJ still needs to sharpen her acting a bit more. She's like your typical school girl. She's supposed to stand out from the crowd. She also needs to work on her feminism a bit more. The original MJ was sexy. This one is not.. Expand

We are not at the level of Raimi's films. Nor about Homecoming. But it's his. And he does it very well.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spider-Man: Lejos de casa, dirigida por Jon Watts, es una emocionante secuela que sigue las aventuras del joven Peter Parker mientras lucha por equilibrar su vida como superhéroe y estudiante. Con una trama llena de giros inesperados, efectos visuales impresionantes y un elenco encantador, la película ofrece una experiencia emocionante para los fanáticos del Hombre Araña.

Una de las fortalezas notables de Spider-Man: Lejos de casa es su enfoque en el desarrollo de los personajes. Tom Holland brilla una vez más en el papel de Peter Parker, capturando a la perfección la dualidad entre su vida personal y sus responsabilidades como Spider-Man. La película explora las dificultades y las dudas internas de Peter de una manera auténtica, lo que lo convierte en un personaje con el que el público puede identificarse y empatizar.

El elenco de apoyo también merece reconocimiento. Zendaya como MJ y Jacob Batalon como Ned aportan carisma y humor a la historia, creando una química encantadora con Tom Holland. Además, el nuevo personaje interpretado por Jake Gyllenhaal, Mysterio, agrega una capa adicional de intriga y complejidad a la trama. El talento actoral del elenco eleva la película y mantiene al público comprometido con la historia.

Spider-Man: Lejos de casa ofrece una mezcla emocionante de acción y humor. Las secuencias de acción son visualmente impresionantes y están bien coreografiadas, brindando momentos emocionantes y llenos de adrenalina. La película aprovecha al máximo los poderes y las habilidades de Spider-Man, presentando escenas de lucha que son dinámicas y emocionantes. El humor también está presente en todo momento, equilibrando la intensidad de las escenas de acción con momentos ligeros y divertidos.

Los efectos visuales en Spider-Man: Lejos de casa son impresionantes y ayudan a crear un mundo visualmente cautivador. Las escenas en las que Spider-Man se balancea por la ciudad, los enfrentamientos con los villanos y los momentos de ilusión son visualmente impactantes y agregan un elemento extra de emoción a la película. La dirección de Jon Watts logra mantener la coherencia visual y aprovechar al máximo los efectos especiales para crear momentos asombrosos.

Sin embargo, a pesar de todas sus fortalezas, Spider-Man: Lejos de casa puede sentirse un tanto predecible en ciertos momentos. Algunos de los giros de la trama pueden ser adivinados por el público más atento, lo que resta algo de sorpresa y emoción. Además, aunque la película aborda temas interesantes como la responsabilidad y la identidad, podría haberse adentrado más en ellos para agregar profundidad adicional a la narrativa.

En resumen, Spider-Man: Lejos de casa es una emocionante y entretenida entrega en el universo de Spider-Man. Con su enfoque en el desarrollo de personajes, sus secuencias de acción emocionantes, su humor bien ejecutado y sus efectos visuales impresionantes, la película es un festín para los fanáticos del Hombre Araña. Aunque puede ser predecible en algunos momentos y podría haber explorado más a fondo ciertos temas, Spider-Man: Lejos de casa ofrece una experiencia divertida y emocionante para los amantes de los superhéroes.

Ugh. I will say that Holland and Zendaya are both amazing - their young chemistry is leagues better than anything done by Tobey or Andrew Garfield. And I'll say that the use of three songs - "Back in Black", "Vacation" (Go Go's), and "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" are perfectly placed. I also want to say that the Nick Fury sequences are fun, and the Aunt May stuff is awesome. So in the future, make MOST of the movie about human beings, and much less about the big, boring CGI fights. Expand

He lucks into doing the right thing and gets everything handed to him. He makes no sacrifices and loses nothing. Imagine you have to make the choice between saving the world and going on a field trip where maybe you kiss MJ (imagine this is a choice that is actually a "real tough choice"). But instead of having to choose one you just automatically get both because choices are for losers. That's the new Marvel version of great power. With great power comes more robots and tech and hey superpowers are kinda lame too now that I think about it. And wow, the Stark Jr/Iron Spider stuff is so thematically unwarranted and completely off base. Expand

Spider-Man returns in one of the MCU's more middling entries. There's nothing exactly wrong with it per se. It's got humor, heart, action, and can be a very entertaining experience. However, it is also a filler chapter where the only thing ofSpider-Man returns in one of the MCU's more middling entries. There's nothing exactly wrong with it per se. It's got humor, heart, action, and can be a very entertaining experience. However, it is also a filler chapter where the only thing of real consequence to occur takes place during the end credits. Coming off of Endgame it's a little hard to get excited about something that doesn't further the franchise in any meaningful way. Although it does hint a little at where the future of Parker may lie.

With this being the character's third incarnation on the big screen, I get that some changes to his history were necessary in order to set this take apart from the work of Raimi and Marc Webb and ensure that he better fit into the MCU. That being said, some of the alterations do irk the purist in me (mostly the ones made to longtime supporting characters). The exception being the possibility of Spider-Man becoming the next Tony Stark. As bad as Marvel comics have been over the past few years, making Parker the CEO of his own multibillion dollar conglomerate was actually a pretty cool decision despite the bad writing that accompanied it. I was even a little disappointed when they decided to retcon that in favor of a back-to-basics approach. So the idea of Parker sort of inheriting Starks tech and role as the face of the MCU kind of excites me and I hope they actually deliver on all of this teasing.

Once again Spider-Man faces of the most well-realized villains in the MCU. While definitely a step back from Vulture, Mysterio at least undergoes a little bit of exploration as a character. As annoying as it is to see everything once again tie back into Tony, it does provide a satisfying explanation behind Beck's actions. The moments where he goes full master of illusion are some of the most exciting in the film.

I think Far From Home really revealed to me where I'm at mentally with this particular cinematic universe. Unless it's introducing new character or radically redefining an existing one's arc, my interest in the standalone entries is very low. Especially if the hero has been around for a while like Spider-Man. There's nothing I can legitimately make complaints about. The formula these films run on definitely still works. It's just that this one felt so inconsequential that I was very aware of its running-time, and for a movie that's over two-hours in length that's not a good thing.

The story felt lacking, redundant, and uninspired, character development was rather weak (especially with Jake Gyllenhaal's Mysterio unfortunately), and just a pretty underwhelming feeling was all that was left for me when all was said and done. Even a couple interesting post-credit scenes weren't quite enough to save most of it for me. The biggest plus I can give this is for Tom Holland (who's still far and out my fav Spider-Man thus far), but other than that, I mostly found this to be a forgettable and not so worthy follow-up to 'Endgame', and honestly one of the weaker MCU movies in recent memory for me.

This was a complicated review for me to make not because this movie was complex or anything but simply that I expected more from a Spider-man movie matter of fact a Marvel more. At this stage an okay Spider-Man isn't good enough.

Better I go
This was a complicated review for me to make not because this movie was complex or anything but simply that I expected more from a Spider-man movie matter of fact a Marvel more. At this stage an okay Spider-Man isn't good enough.

Better I go on a mini rant I can say that Tom Holland does a good job as Spider-Man, the dude is just good at the role. He was the best part of the movie, he nailed the funny parts, awkward teen moments and emotional moments(i'll get into that more later). Another intriguing performance came from Jake Gyllenhaal as Mysterio, I have always wanted Jake in a Superhero movie and he gives a good performance although there is some corny dialouge he says but that was because of the script not THE MAN - Jake Gyllenhaal. His character had more interesting things to do but thats sort of spoiler territory also the scenes between him and Tom were good. The other cast members were either okay or forgettable. Jon Fanvrou as Happy was fine though he had one amazing scene with Tom Holland. Marisa Tomie was meh she doesn't give a bad performance or anything but so far she's been one forgattble Aunt May in the MCU. Zendeya,Jacob as Ned, Samuel L Jackson were fine. The other high school kids were completely forgettable.

The romance arc between Spider-man and MJ was cute(I guess) it was nothing special but they did the whole teen romance thing well enough. The action was actually good and better than Homecoming, there were some cool mermorable action sequences in Far from Home and without spoiling anything, what they did with Spider-sense was dope. One major shoutout to Mysterio though. Far from Home had one great,trippy scene it was awesome and weirder than anything in Doctor Strange, Marvel really went to town with the whole Magician thing. The visual effects were very good and my favorite scene of the movie involved an emotional and heart warming scene between Spider-Man and Happy and I wish the movie could have had morer scenes like this. There was also one tiny thought provoking scene near the end that I didn't expect from the movie. Oh and the credit scenes were fire.

Now there villain in this movie was corny and predictable, there's no other way to put it I say the twist from a mile away. I mean the reasoning behind the villain's story was weak but I have to say the consequences from the villain's actions were jaw-dropping (mid-credit scene has the juice) but other than that the villain was average the only saving graces were the consequences of ther villain and a couple of interiguing scenes between him/her and Spider-Man and how Spider-Man was challenged by him/her.

Now for all the stuff that bothered me. First off the humor, I am getting tired of Marvel humor man I mean there were some funny scenes in Far from Home but for the most part the humor attempts from Marvel was exhausting and forced . I mean not every scene has to be funny Marvel it felt there were no serious stages at times. The first half of the movie also took kinda long to get going as well and kinda dragged on. Also at times this movie was way too focused on Iron Man I mean I get that Tony Stark is a mentor to Peter Parker but it sometimes distracted from Spider-Man's story. The movie also couldn't focus on its mainline story there was the whole IronMan x Spider-Man storyline, then Peter struggling with being a regular teenager and a Superhero then the whole comedy vacation stuff x Teen Romance. I get that a movie can haver multiple layers and arcs and still be an amazing movie but Far from Home could balance the storylines they presented to us. I mean yes I enjoyed Peter's struggle with wanting a normal life and being Spider-Man and how he deals with the IronMan situation while also being treated with some highschool comedy but I neverr felt that Far From Home fully committed to any of those storylines leaving us with an okay story for a Spider-Man movier and again at this stage an OKAY Spider-Man, Marvel movie isn't good enough

I almost disliked Far From Home but when I looked back this movie was just fine, it had good performances from Tom Holland and Jake Gyllenhaal, some dope action sequences and amazing visual effects, some funny scenes and some interesting story elements and the emotional scene between Peter and Happymakes Far From Home a fun porncorn flick but the overall subpar story, average villain, cringey and corny scenes, unfunny and forced humor and some forgettable cast members brings the movie down a lot leaving us with an above average Spider-Man movie.

Don't expect a classic or epic superhero movie. Instead, you would watch a comedy that happens to have action scenes because the protagonist is a teenage mutant. Overall the experience is rather enjoyable, but don't expect anything extraordinary.

The comic book readers will recognize, in a couple of scenes of the cornered hero, those claustrophobic pictures on every black background in which the Spiderman gets trapped in the vertigo of Mysterio, suffocated by images that bring to the surface traumas of the unconscious. It is the expected fan service, and that knows how to take good advantage of the character of cartoons situations and characterization of characters. What's more, the good visual translation of comic book aesthetics is an undeniable legacy of Sam Raimi that at no time, even in the films starring Andrew Garfield, was scrapped within the franchise.

MCU's blueprint is shockingly durable or maybe it is the malleability of the writers, either way the summer has still some legs.

Spider-Man: Far From Home

Watts is buoyed by the politically and socially fit theme in the film that we have been whipped religiously nowadays. On that very note, Marvel has always stayed ahead of its game. Evidently, Kevin Feige reports that The Winter Soldier and Civil War had political themes that incidentally matched the circumstances. And the director Jon Watts, unlike the previous installment, speaks expressly on such heavy matters since this character is told to be the front page news in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from now on. Carrying that heavy burden on the shoulders is not just this chapter but the lead Peter Parker played by Tom Holland where both the character and actor is going through the same phenomenon.

But saying that the script is trippy would be understating it. By now, we can all agree that this franchise has grown more that just movies. But even for the standards of a comic book story, this is one hefty meal to swallow. And to add more spice, the flips and turns are so bizarre that you are taken aback as a viewer questioning everything. Ergo, to lighten the mood, the Marvel knocks on its most controversial subject, i.e. humor.

This bland of good and bad and familiar and forced laughs never fits in on this trip, despite the fact that it follows a teenage love story. The film suffers only when it tries to be both. Light footed and moody when grounding the characters through small talks and supporting character and, escalating these verbal sparring into bigger aspects like mourning, fake news, responsibility and the most tedious aspect of a job; the routine. This transaction is not completely convincing. A laziness or maybe commercially restricted deadline can be pointed out at such moments.

The film is visually stunning. Fortunately, it is a part of narration. So sit back and enjoy the thrilling ride in big IMax screen. Speaking of action, the choreography isn't as spectacular as Marvel cannon usually brings out. But it isn't their fault. The storytelling doesn't seek for big antics. Hence, you can see them work hard on details like the way Holland hits on a wall and then falls up front after trying to run and match the momentum. These tiny notions aren't awe gasping but soothing to watch, thinking that the Universe is still in safe hands.

Holland is a good performer, there is no doubt about that, but a performer needs a good partner which he is in short here. Jake Gyllenhaal as Quentin Beck actually has quite a wide range that isn't even touched in here. His character has the caliber to carry the film on his shoulder, but the surface is barely scratched and as a result, Holland stands alone in the screen. Far From Home stays quite close to the Universe. That is its biggest win, derived equation looks upgraded and the funky hip and happening music in sync with the MCU's loud and crowd pleasing soundtrack.

"It's easy to fool people when they are already fooling themselves."

Spider-Man: Far From Home relaja el ambiente adecuadamente justo después de Avengers Endgame, sin embargo también tumba la calidad que el MCU logró con Endgame y Avengers Infinity War. Far From Home gana y pierde al mismo tiempo. Todos los personajes son triviales y desenfocados, lo cual revela que la historia tiene problemas para mostrar su propio propósito. Misterio, lejos de ser enigmático, es confuso tanto por su falta de finalidad como por su propia misión y Parker, aún después de lo que ha enfrentado como super-heroe, parece desconocer sus prioridades; y cuando al fin está decidido, explicarse es un acto forzado que arruina cualquier carga dramática. No es culpa de Tom Holland o Jake Gyllenhaal, quienes actúan puntualmente, sino del guión, que no se decide entre ahorrar diálogos o dar más romance, comedia o acción. Por otra parte, la ironía en las historias secundarias agregan una carga de comedia boba y molesta totalmente innecesaria que le quita seriedad e importancia a la trama principal. Fuera de la molestia que me provocó ver esas deficiencias, admitiré que la película me sorprendió. No considero que los efectos especiales hayan sido buenos pero dieron vida a un concepto visual muy interesante de explorar. La cuestión de las ilusiones ópticas y la transformación del espacio gracias a la aplicación de la realidad virtual me dejaron con ganas de más situaciones similares. Las secuencias de acción se extrapolan y mientras las de Misterio se sienten recicladas, a Spider-Man le dan creatividad y le permiten relucir con coreografías algo ingeniosas. También hay puntos de impacto, que no revelaré para evitar spoilers, que logran anclar al film a un nivel de tensión terrenal que sustituye el factor de la fantasía por un impacto tan realista que puede provocar escalofríos. Peter Parker tiene mucho que aprender y eso no supone prosperidad para el héroe si no deja de ser un aprendiz y se convierte en un sabio.

Spider-Man: Far From Home smooths the mood properly just right after Avengers: Endgame, nevertheless, also tackles the quality that the MCU achieved with Endgame and Avengers: Infinity War. Far From Home win some and lose some. All the characters are trivial and unfocused, which reveals the failures of the story to show its purpose. Misterio, far from being enigmatic, it's confusing both by his lack of finality and by his own mission; and Peter Parker, even after what he have faced as a superhero, seems to not know his priorities, and when he finally makes up his mind, explaining himself it's a forced act that ruins any dramatic value. It's not Tom Holland's or Jake Gyllenhaal's fault, who act accurately, but it’s the scrip's fault, which doesn't decide if to save dialogs or give more romance, comedy or action. Also, the irony in the background stories adds a dumb and annoying comedy totally unnecessary that takes away all seriousness and importance to the main plot. Outside from the bother that those failings brought in me, I will admit that the movie also surprised me. I don't consider the special effects to be good, but they gave life to a very interesting visual concept to explore. The matter about optical illusions and the transformation of space thanks to the application of virtual reality left me wanting more similar ideas. The action sequences are polarized and while the ones of Misterio feel reused, creativity is given to Spider-Man and he's able to shine with kind of clever choreographies. There are, also, impact points, that I won't reveal because of spoilers, that achieve to hang the film in a down to earth level of tension that replace the fantasy factor for shocks so realistic that can give the chills. Peter Parker has a lot to learn and that might not promise prosperity for the hero if he doesn't stop learning and star knowing.

I just came home with the kids from the cinema where we had watched Spider-Man: Far From Home so I thought I would write a few lines while it was still fresh in my mind.

I have to say that it was a decent enough movie. I didn’t exactly regret having forked out the money to watch it in the cinema but that’s about it. It’s far from a great movie and the end scene…well it’s a typical really crappy Hollywood ending where the writer cannot be bothered to spend time creating something intelligent so he just goes for the usual sensationalist cliffhanger ****

As with the previous movie, Spider-Man: Homecoming, this is a Spider-Man for kids, or at least younger people, movie which perhaps is part of why I am somewhat lukewarm towards it. This one did not feel as childish as the previous one but there is still a lot of teenage angst and rubbish in it. The plot is of course highly predictable as well.

The special effects on the other hand are quite good and essentially what makes the movie worth watching. At least to me. The end fight with hundreds of those drones flying around intermixed with Mysterio’s illusions where quite cool. A bit over the top perhaps but cool nonetheless.

Its not really "Boring", but it feels as if it was written by different writers.
Action sequences no longer feel like a story/event is unfolding, but more about how we can cram as many unique camera angles/posses in as possible.
Once the fight starts, you already know everything that will happen, the only "unique" situations, are the ones that dont use combat/action. (But do lack good dialogue to compliment them.) I did zone out during the action sequences, and the "unique" sequences, since they were no where near as good as the prior marvel movies. (Neither in spectacle, nor in story progression.)
The actual "plot" feels too forced, making peter change his "go get em" personality too much, for the sake of plot. (plus there's not really much going on with the plot, except the end credit scene, which is the only part worth seeing.)
This is no where near as bad as Thor2 or Ironman2, so if you like the characters, its still ok to watch.

But be warned, even the comedy of this movie is different.
In the prior movie(s) the comedy is a byproduct.
Meaning, things would be set up for the progression of the plot. Comedy acted more as a means to make fun of the awkwardness of situations the plot required.
If somebody has to do something weird, they make fun of it.
But in this movie, they completely set up the plot solely to make jokes. The set up has nothing to do with the plot, nor its progression, and nor are they makeing fun of situations. instead, the plot changes direction, so they could squeeze in jokes that just arent as good as prior ones. It ends up coming off too corny.
Example: Two people start dating for no real reason, other than for a gag. They also stop dating, also for a gag.
It had no reason to be there, it doesnt help the plot, and it wasnt funny. (It was predictable due to how jokes run.)
Another example is Flash. In the 1st movie his Dads car gets taken, and wrecked, yet he loves spiderman in this movie, all for a joke. In the prior, spiderman called flash by his name, in this one, flash is surprised spiderman knows who he is, all for a joke.

This isnt to say all jokes in the movie are bad, there's some funny ones. But too many of the jokes arent funny, and are the "reverse" method of "It doesnt take itself too seriously". Instead, it jumps from taking itself too seriously, to not taking itself seriously enough, and hardly meets in the middle.
Hopefully Sony learns from this, if they ever plan to use Tom Holland again. (Probably not, they look at money signs, and see the billion dollar profits, and dont see connections like "people came to see this, to see where the MCU will go after endgame. And some people grew to like spiderman in the prior movies, so they hoped for an equally good story here."
