Very disappointed, not what Spider-man should be

Rating: 5/10 (27 July 2017)

I walked into the cinema with really high hopes for this film. I fangirled over the Metacritic score of 73 and was ready to be amazed. Instead I was very disappointed.
Don't get me wrong, the film definitely is entertaining and I probably would recommend that you go watch it, but I'm just saying that you won't be missing much if you don't see it. Tom Holland did do a very good job with the role of Peter Parker and I praise him for that, it was the writers and the casting directors that did a bad job.
The casting choices for this film were absolutely ridiculous! I admit Tom Holland, although I was nervous at first, he did do a good job. However everyone else is an extremely poor choice. In the Amazing Spider-man with Andrew Garfield, the character of Flash was a butch jock who was very intimidating to Peter and was the school bully. However in Homecoming, he is an Asian science geek who is somehow popular and just awfully name calls Peter. I mean "Penis Parker"? Who wrote that?! The casting choice of Peter's crush is interesting too. I'm not entirely against it but it was just a weird choice in my opinion. And Michael Keaton as the bad guy? Seriously?! Don't get me wrong, Keaton is a fantastic actor and is incredible! But he is way too old to play a role like this and does not belong here.
One of the things that really ticked me off was the Spider-man suit itself. Going back to Toby Maguire's Spider-man, his suit was original. It didn't have anything fancy, it was just a superhero costume with a good design. But in Homecoming, the suit comes with it's own "Jarvis" like Iron Man's suit, and it has gadgets as well which just isn't how Spider-man should be! Even though the most entertaining part of the film is when he is wearing this suit, most of the film he isn't even wearing it!! He wears a stupid hoodie and trousers and it just isn't fun.
I understand that I lot of people enjoyed this film but I just wasn't impressed.
