The next best thing next to the Avengers

Rating: 8/10 (10 September 2018)

After watching the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy and avoiding the Amazing Spider-Man duology, I'd heard about Homecoming. We get back to the roots of Peter Parker as the insecure high school student going about his life. This outdid the first Sam Raimi Spider-Man film (though I enjoyed that one the most before this one) and the villain was more relatable. This was the first time I'd seen Michael Keaton as a villain, after having been Batman/Bruce Wayne on two separate occasions under Tim Burton's direction. This gave us a second outing for Tom Holland's Spider-Man after Civil War. And Tony Stark wasn't bad either. This is one of Marvel's best MCU films along with the first Avengers. This was also my first Donald Glover film. Good work, MCU!
