We now reach the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of my all-time
favourite superhero. Yes, Road to Infinity War is now at Spider-Man Homecoming.
Now everything I said in that original post still stands so
I won’t repeat it all here, but what I was really interested in when
re-watching Spider-Man Homecoming was whether or not I thought it was better
than Black Panther. As when I ranked the MCU after seeing Black Panther I was a
little undecided about which one should be rank 4 v 5, and this is the first
time I’ve watched SMH since. So…
I’m still undecided to be honest, as I’ve only seen Black
Panther once I’m not quite confident enough to make that call, frustratingly it
doesn’t get released on Blu-Ray / DVD until after Avengers Infinity War is
released.
Either way, re-watching Spider-Man Homecoming did re-affirm
my original thoughts - in short I love this movie.
Of the 3 actors who have played the character, Tom Holland is
the best Peter Parker / Spider-Man. I never really warmed to Tobey Maguire (he
was always a bit too dorky for me), however I did really like Andrew Garfield
in role as a result of his charisma and acting style. Yet, Tom Holland ranks
number 1 for me.
Micheal Keaton as Adrian Toomes / Vulture is one of the best
villains in the MCU. His motivation are relatable, and his story organically
fits within the narrative of the over-arching story. I think it’s a genius idea
to have the prologue of the movie essentially be the Vulture’s origin, as then
it doesn’t bog down and feel forced into the rest of the film.
The rest of the cast are all great and ties in to the wider MCU work perfectly.
What really stood out for me whilst watching Homecoming this
time, was how Marvel Studios mixed up the position of the action sequences.
Whereas most MCU movies see they’re big spectacle in the 3rd act,
the two main set-pieces (Washington Monument and Statton Ferry) happen in the 2nd
act (and actually within about 5 minutes of each other). The final act
obviously still features a cargo plane crashing, but as a result of Peter
losing the Stark enhanced suit (and using his home made one), this feels more
intimate and like a sequence that would usually be earlier in a origin/solo movie.
Thematically it makes sense however, as it proves Peter is still a hero without
the suit.
What more can I say, I love this film and in my opinion it is the best Spider-Man movie ever made.
