So sorry Tom Holland got dragged into this

Rating: 6/10 (5 March 2018)

Admittedly, I liked Tom Holland as Spider-Man. I thought that Toby Maguire was always too over-the-top nerdy. Andrew Garfield was ok also. The rest of the movie was mostly a train wreck.
I'm a big MCU fan and was nervous when Disney took over. After watching this disaster, seems like my fears are realized. The casting was downright awful. Michael Keaton was not really convincing as villain. And the obvious political agenda is sickening with the casting of Ned, Flash, Michelle (supposedly MJ??) and Liz. And what is with the sultry Aunt Mae??? Which comic book episode is that from???
And the story? So many holes. It's convenient that Stark and Hogan are never truly available to help until the plot has been resolved in predictable fashion. Except for the horrible boat scene where Iron Man inexplicably makes an appearance to save the day but leaves as quickly as he arrives. Really? Don't care to know how a boat of that size was sliced in half? What about the passengers - not terribly concerned to make sure folks are ok? I have always questioned how the current MCU relationship among the Avengers would factor into the single-hero movies and it looks like Disney is indeed butchering those plots.
The whole alien cleanup plot is a mess also. So these alien artifacts were just entrusted to a random cleanup crew to dispose of? And how did Keaton earn income for so long working underground? He must have sold a lot of weapons to maintain his living situation so where are all of those weapons?
And why do so many characters know that Peter is Spider-Man already? And where is Gwen? Why isn't Peter a photographer? What about Uncle Ben?
This was a detriment to the Spider-Man legacy. No backstory, a mess of a plot, terrible casting. A complete failure all around. Worst MCU movie to date.
