But the Vulture does provide the movie with some cool sci-fi trimmings: Toomes has adapted the Chitauri alien tech heвЂ™s found into a variety of amazing weapons. Despite KeatonвЂ™s best efforts, and being described by another character as вЂњa psychopath dressed like a demonвЂќ, the human bird of prey is only mildly compelling, and the duke-it-out, CGI-heavy action finale between him and Parker drags somewhat. This winged bastard, complete with a furry-collared bomber jacket making him look at least a little vulture-esque, is far from MarvelвЂ™s most interesting villain, though itвЂ™s nice to have a baddie whoвЂ™s just out to make some cash rather than drop cities on peopleвЂ™s heads. ItвЂ™s a refreshing spin on the comic-book-movie template. A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the. And just as Cop Car pitted kids against an adult evildoer in Kevin BaconвЂ™s corrupt lawman, Watts works the same dynamic here, as Peter butts heads with the intimidating Adrian Toomes, aka the Vulture. The performances he gets out of the young cast are sweet and sparky. The lightness of touch he demonstrated there is here in spades, with a genius Ferris BuellerвЂ™s Day Off joke and even the big action sequences (the standout being a Washington Monument rescue) peppered with sharp gags. The director, Jon Watts, is making the leap from a small film himself: 2015вЂ™s nifty thriller Cop Car. One scene in which he turns up at a party hoping to hook up with cool classmate Liz (Laura Harrier) feels like a superhero Superbad: itвЂ™s a refreshing spin on the comic-book-movie template, and nice to have a film this big not afraid to frequently keep things small.

HeвЂ™s barely in control of his powers and appealingly lame. Spider-Man: Homecoming is a 2017 superhero film directed by Jon Watts (Clown, Cop Car), and the sixteenth entry of the Marvel Cinematic Universe as well as.

Nimble and shrimpy (though weirdly buff once he removes his shirt), Tom HollandвЂ™s Parker is hugely endearing from his first scene, shooting a video diary of the airport fight from Captain America: Civil War on his phone. A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man, who made his sensational debut in CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging. In no small part this is due to it starring the best screen Spider-Man so far. And, ditching the angst and sludgy plotting of the last few films, Homecoming is easily the best Spider-Man film since Sam RaimiвЂ™s operatic Spider-Man 2. This Peter Parker is perpetually on the fringes of something more exciting - less a noble lad discovering his inner hero than a dweeby kid desperate to get into the party around the corner. Secondly, and more crucially, it seems to have set the vibe for the first Spider-film made with MarvelвЂ™s direct creative input.
