Homecoming Prince.

Rating: 8/10 (21 August 2017)

Did you notice that, just like a vulture, Keaton's Adrian Toomes scoured the streets of New York, picking at dead metal, in an attempt to salvage what was left, in order to feed his family?
Did you notice that Tony Stark's scolding to Peter on the roof was inspired by Tony's actual characteristic, that we were given a glimpse into, during Iron Man Three?
Did you notice how Watts used the whole "diversity push" to his advantage? Instead of using one race to just traditionally replace another, he used it to strengthen his work.
Did you notice, that with this particular Spider-Man, because of his age, he wasn't a hero, he was a trouble maker who had the makings of a hero... because of his age, he doesn't yet have the maturity or acumen to become a hero through similar trials and errors of hero's such as Strange or Ant-Man?
At the age of 15, most boys have absolutely no idea how to even react or act around a girl... So imagine at that age, you get thrust into a world even Tony Stark wasn't ready for; How would you handle it? How would you react?
The angle Jon Watts took here, put together with trying his level best to separate this Spidey to his predecessors, makes this rendition pretty damn ingenious.
It's young, it's clumsy, but also smart and consistent. Spider-Man: Homecoming is setting us up for the journey of a lifetime, from when Peter was young and stupid, to what and who he'll be in Spider- Man: Homecoming 2 and 3... Stronger, smarter... Wiser.
My biggest gripe with Homecoming is the suit; it felt a bit too Iron Man like, and because we can't see how Peter will make it completely and totally his own just yet, it was hard to ignore.
From there, given the hurdles this film had to endure, and how Watts' take was truly so fresh, makes this film a Homecoming King. 7.8/10.
