Spider Man Homecoming: Whoaa !

Our friendly neighborhood Spider Man has made his return on big screen, and he is more charming than ever. 


Film making rights now handled to Marvel Studios from Columbia Pictures. And this makes a lot of difference. A new franchise is here with fresh look, unique approach and storytelling which resembles with comic.
Film has lot of plus than minus. Homecoming has won half battle with casting of Tom Holland as Spidy. What was missing in Garfield (Shyness of Peter) and Tobey (Charm of Spidy) is perfectly summed up here. Tom has balanced both personalities very well. And he makes the character genuinely lovable. As always Robert Downey has his own Charisma as Iron man/TS. 


Casting of Micheal Keaton as Vulture was really surprising. But His performance and non-routine character write up makes it the most Horrific Baddy of Marvel Movies. His deep eyes are really Threatening. Other casting of Mitchell (Zendaya), Liz(Laura Harrier) and Aunt May (Marisa Tomey) is also good.


As I said, storytelling is different and comes more close to comics. It walks along Peter’s surroundings, his friends, crush and High school environment. Every audience can feel or understand the difference between first 5 installments and this. It catches attention of audience at very first note with its Quirky dialogues and realistic directional approach. And hence it turns into character driven coming age comedy.


Why do we feel Spidy is our Hero? I had this question in mind. And I always found the answer that these (all 5 installments) films have its heart which directly connects with audience. And director, Jon Watts hasn't failed in maintaining that emotional touch. He mostly focuses on polished Story rather than rehearsing familiar elements in past. And that's biggy !
Film's Background Score is so apt. 
After the big reveal in film, the silence maintained is really Haunting. It adds depth in subject and surely the most effective patch of film. It has major contribution of Tom and Keaton's Performance though.
The con, I personally felt is Camera work in few scenes. It has one scene in which Spidy bounces back with all confidence. This scenes had lot of potential, somehow I couldn't feel that pressure and spirit.
An eye candy action sequences are also missing a bit if we compare it with others. The baddies surrounding Vulture are also under developed. But these don't make a big difference. 


For final verdict...
Spider Man Homecoming has its heart at right place. It can easily please MCU fans and Comic lovers. It has Fun, Joy, Heroism... All on right places. And the best Spidy movie ever with full of Whoaa moments. So don't miss.
That's all ? No. I have to say something. 
I'm in love with Nerdy Ned (Jacob Batalon) !
