Spider-Man? More like Spider-Meh.

Rating: Null/10 (20 July 2017)

"Spider-Man: Homecoming" was entertaining in the way popcorn flicks are, but I found it lacking in substance. As with most Marvel movies, the audience is apparently supposed to just play passive observer, willingly suspending not just disbelief but also suspending any impetus to actually think about what's happening on the screen. So sure, "Spider-Man: Homecoming" is a nice film if you want something essentially mindless, but the writing doesn't rise above the average Marvel movie. The best part of the movie is Michael Keaton's Vulture, and honestly, even that isn't saying much. I walked out of the theater liking the movie for what it was but having no desire to see it again until it hits the small screen.
