One minute he’s crushing on Liz, the next he’s embarrassed by Flash, then he’s complaining to Tony Stark that he’s still treating him like a child. Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige wasn’t lying when he said Homecoming would be like “a John Hughes movie,” and the high school sequences very much have a Breakfast Club/Ferris Bueller's Day Off feel to them (as well as being chock-full of nods and Easter eggs).Īnyone who was still unsure about Tom Holland’s casting (anyone? Hands up?) will surely be won over when they see him effortlessly jump between extreme emotions the way only teenagers can. This relatively boring superhero hero life goes hand-in-hand with Peter’s normal teenage life of school, Aunt May, and his friends/bullies/crushes. While Peter’s frustrations are clear, it’s enjoyable to watch this return to the more traditional superhero fare and reminds you just why superhero movies became so popular in the first place. It’s just Spider-Man looking after the neighbourhood he lives in, trying to help people and occasionally stopping the odd petty criminal. It’s a breakaway from what we’ve come to expect from the MCU - there’s no big saving the world missions, no alien battles or terrorists to take down. 6 questions I have after watching Spider-Man: HomecomingĪfter the world-changing events of Civil War we return to Queens, and Peter’s more mundane high school life, and share in his disappointment as months go by without any word from Mr Stark or the Avengers.
