Come on man, this is not true at all


- Initial part of the film is funny for sure. But then it gets very claustrophobic very quickly. There is a point where Peter realizes he's ruining his best friend and MJs lives.

- Daredevil scene is actually excellent and feels like a continuation of the Netflix show (because it is)

- He goes to Dr. Strange, being a dumb kid, yes, he fucks up the spell. Also being a dumb kid, he never spoke to the MIT lady. But Strange is like us, gets pissed off and send him on his way.

- First Doc Oc scene is fantastic. Then we learn about the multiversal villains who spilled through. Then a decent scene with Elektro and Sandman. Yes, expository dialogue is needed here for people who have never seen the older films. It's necessary.

- Peter vs Strange in the Mirror Dimension was an excellent moment. You can see Peter's spider-sense physically being emitted when he's in Astral form, it's sick

- THEN the movie completely changes in mood the moment Peter is in the apartment, his senses go off, and he can't tell which villain is actually trying to kill him and may. It's extremely tense and well directed. The entire fight with Goblin that ensues is one of the best/most visually violent fight scenes the MCU has done. It FELT like Daredevil's hallway fights but with super people powerbombing each other through floors instead.

- The entire back half of the movie is just completely changes after this point. Sure, there are light moments with the other spider-men, but the dialogue is on point and the completely new low Peter experiences is super well done.

- The entire second half of curing the villains is integral to May's last words. Also him asking Strange to have everyone forget who he is ties to the beginning of the film on how he looks at his friends.

-The movie COULD have been all fanservice, but everything has a reason for why it's integrated into the plot. Imo, the movie is FAR less quippy than it could have been, especially during the serious scenes.




There is a reason is has the highest cinema score that rarely any MCU movie achieves and one of the higher RT and Metacritic scores as well.
Lets just say if you watched older movies and you have nostalgia its good for you otherwise its mediocre.

Cant argue with that one

That's how the MCU works tho, i never understood this constant shit talking about how these movies are "bad on their own", they are not designed to be movies on their own, they are designed as parts of a whole, so it's stupid to review / rate them like that.

It's like trying to rate a random episode of the 6th season of show that has a progressing storyline you didn't watch shit before, makes no sense.
