(COPY OF MY SPOILER-FREE REVIEW)

I thought the movie did a lot to please everyone, but I only thought it was okay.

- Ned and "MJ" ruined a lot of moments for me and had too much screen time, and I don't like them at all. The Scooby Gang were insufferable.

- Doctor Strange's magic was way too convenient and plot-breaking, as was the way Peter decided to 'defeat' the villains. That seems like a "Deus Ex Machina" plot device there (yeah, I know it's not the fully accurate term). Archer: "ISN'T THAT CONVENIENT?"

- There's a lot of plot holes to address, or if you choose, to ignore. (No Mary Jane Watson, no Gwen Stacy, no Raimi Venom; I get why they're not there, but according to how the spell worked, they should be there in the movie even if they're not needed).

- The fact that there are no MCU equivalents of many of these villains, like Norman Osbourne or Dr. Otto Octavius, also feels empty and weird for me; how can they not exist in the MCU? Hell, this isn't a spoiler, but Uncle Ben isn't even really a thing in the MCU timeline. That's egregious.

- There weren't enough fight scenes or action in the movie. Really, just that final "Sinister Five" fight and that's it. The bridge "fight" doesn't count, and without getting into spoilers, it's easy to say why.

- The good stuff is accurate, though: Emotionally turning MCU Peter Parker into a man and maturing him, as well as the big surprise in the movie everyone was waiting for. SO GLAD they actually did it.

- Lastly, the way the movie ends leaves a lot open to new possibilities, which I like, but I also feel like we're still never going to get the REAL Spider-Man mythos, like a proper Mary Jane Watson in the MCU.

And after it's all said and done, THIS STILL DOESN'T FEEL LIKE SPIDER-MAN! This feels like a random mish-mash of elements from the Spider-Man universe, but not proper Spider-Man lore. The next Spider-Man trilogy MIGHT address this and give us a proper, definitive Spider-Man story, but I seriously doubt it. At the very least though, he may no longer be "The Amazing Iron Boy" (words I don't use, but the people who do have a strong point). Maybe the next trilogy will set up a proper Mary Jane Watson, Gwen Stacy, Norman Osbourne (even if he's not the villain), and so on.

I'd personally rank No Way Home a 7/10. I wasn't that impressed, although the big secret in the movie was amazing to see.

The Good:

- The villains making a comeback.
- Taking care of the past Spider-Man movies and giving a proper finale to them.
- The ending leaves open a world of possibilities.

The Bad:

- Peter's "Scooby-Doo" Gang.
- Plot holes, plot holes, plot holes!
- Still feels inaccurate to the Spider-Man lore.

I saw it on Thursday. There was a few points in the movie where the entire theatre lost their minds. And I'm like, "calm your tits people, it's a movie". And I've seen all the spiderman movies and the entire MCU movie list. I guess people are more emotional than me. I thought the movie was pretty dope though. Lots of action, lots of funny moments, some nice touching moments as well. One of the better Marvel movies and certainly the best spiderman movie.

Yes, I went to see it with a friend. We both loved it! We knew we would though. His grandma got us the tickets. We almost cried at a few parts ( if you’ve seen the film you’d know which parts ) I also whooped loudly at certain parts and got a few others in the theater to as well. Lots more clapping though. I think doing that kind of thing makes it a more exciting experience. I hope we get more movies that are this exciting to the point where people vocally express their excitement at something that happens in films like this. Like in endgame when cap used Thor’s hammer

scentoflavender · Answer

It was amazing. Not ashamed to admit that i cried a little bit during "the fall".

The_Shadow_Dweller · Answer

First day, evening show. Loved it. The weight of his sacrifice could be felt at the end.

Miristheiss · Answer

SPOILER BELOW:

I saw it... I liked it but then again it was kind of bittersweet.
I was bummed Aunt May died.
It was cool seeing all of the old villains back... it was cool seeing all 3 Spidermen together.

It was just bittersweet that May died and the he lost his friendship with Ned and MJ.

Grond21 · Answer

I watched it. It was the best, craziest, most intense, most moving, awfulest wonderful movie ever

Fromdusktilldawn · Answer

Saw it today. I totally loved it!! Everyone who loves the old spidey movies will be flashed by this one! There also a ton of Easter eggs and memes.
I almost dropped dead when Willem Dafoe said again "You know I'm something of a scientist myself" 😆
This movie is like made special for spiderman geeks and fans. Just amazing!
In the theatre everybody cheered and clapped their hands when **** entered the room

Shyguy206 · Answer

I saw it and it was awesome. The theaters were packed. When tobey maguire popped up everybody in the theater screamed (including me). Spiderman is by far the best superhero alongside batman. After that I watched sam raimi's spiderman 1, 2, and 3. I also listened to hero by nickleback which was in the first movie. Next Halloween I'm definitely dressing up as peter parker in the wrestling costume.

t-8900 · Answer

kitkills · Answer

I try to see as many films as possible and Andrew Garfield's acting never fails to be incredibly entertaining to watch.

the_sinner · Answer

I had mixed feelings. It was great without any doubts but I felt like sony has gone too far trying to interfere with Marvel’s storyline by mixing characters and references here and there.
