Watched Homecoming. Was good, but not as good as I hoped. Was about on par with Raimi's first two films for me. Everything they did wrong this did brilliantly, but then it missed the mark on things they did superbly.

Remember when these films acknowledged he has goddamn Spider-sense? I sure don't. Now I'm not expecting it to have flared up just before he found out Toombes was Liz's father or anything but there were SO many instances in this film where it should have.

Karen needs to go ASAP. I'm fine with the suit being Stark tech, I can deal with his vision being like a readout, but the AI crap was just too much. It said a lot that the best scenes were the ones where he used the homemade suit, because that's exactly what Spider-Man should be. He doesn't need all the tech because he's smart enough to do it himself. Now if the point of it all was simply to prove he didn't need the suit and in the next film he has the proper suit but without Karen and all the tech bits (ie he comes up with all the web stuff himself rather than have it handed to him) then great, job done. But it really shouldn't stick around for the sequel.

Casting and tone was superb. Can't say I was a fan of Michelle/MJ but generally it was pretty fantastic all around. It was nice to see a movie where it genuinely felt like a bunch of 15 year olds. Keaton absolutely nailed it as the Vulture too.

So yeah. Happy but there's room for improvement. As far as 2017 comic book films go it didn't top Logan or GOTG2 for me.
