Style over substance.

Rating: 7/10 (29 December 2018)

Let's get the obvious out of the way. This film looks stunning for 90% of the 100min runtime. I will say however that the editing is so sharp and quick, that I thought I was going to have an epileptic fit! Also it played on the 3D blur that the old red and blue comic strips had, which sometimes made me slightly troubled as to whether I was in a 3D showing with no glasses!
The story was half decent, especially around Miles and his family. I thought his relationship with his uncle was particularly a strong point. No spoilers here though!
As for the rest of the movie, I once again will reiterate that Spider-Man in general is feeling exhausted. No matter what is done with the character whether it's Miles or Peter. We have been watching these characters since Toby brought him to the big screen nearly 20 years ago, being rebooted over and over. It's wearing thin for sure.
Thank god this movie had a lot of style.
