Imagine this situation. You have the most ordinary routine day. Someone is waiting for you at home, as always. You go home, and right in front of you sits... well, say, Elon Musk. And he came to you not for what, but to invite you on a very important mission. How will you feel at this point? Probably the same thing Peter Parker felt when he first met Tony Stark. It was from this moment that the arch of the new character of the Marvel Cinematic Universe began - Spider-Man in the interpretation of the charming and promising Tom Holland. This guy attracted attention precisely because of what Spider in the comics was and what Maguire and Garfield lacked: youthful spontaneity. This also allowed Holland to pull out the solo, which his character received shortly after “Confrontation”. The authenticity of the main character, a pleasant youthful atmosphere and a memorable antagonist with simple but understandable motives are the three whales about which Homecoming was held, and at the same time kept at a decent level. John Watts was able to breathe new life into the well-known character, so it is not surprising that the second solo Spider-Man was entrusted to shoot him as well. However, what is still remarkable, along with this, the picture was borne the burden of responsibility, because it was she, and not the final “Avengers” had the honor to complete the third phase of the cinematic universe, and at the same time the so-called Infinity Saga.
What could be the problem here? Perhaps that after the phenomenal scale of “Endgame” such a chamber story could be lost. That was the fate of Ant-Man and the Wasp last year, so we swam. I'm glad that didn't happen. “Spider-Man: Far From Home” worked perfectly as an offload after the emotional extreme experienced after “Endgame”, and at the same time did not lose a share of its originality. Yes, in terms of the narrative structure itself, the emphasis has shifted towards the blockbuster, but that doesn’t go against the enrichment of Parker’s personality. Let’s take a moment to think about Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2. There on Spider Toby fell just a wagon of problems - at work he does not take root, the friendship with Harry can at any time break down in the light of recent events, the employer wants to marry his son a girl in which Peter is in love, and then the respectable scientist went crazy. All this made a significant contribution to the dramaturgy and contributed to raising the degree of experience for the main character. Yet, even with so many internal and open conflicts, Spider-Man 2 is now in full swing. Raimi is also remembered as an amazing action blockbuster with a magnificent visual series (for which, by the way, the film has an Oscar in the piggy bank). What do we see now in Far From Home? It's essentially the same thing -- the same progress in discovering Peter's inner world, coupled with a significant leap in the technical part. By the way, the action and visual design for the first time since “Doctor Strange” is exactly what you should watch “Far From Home” in the cinema. Do you want inventive visual solutions? They are. Was there a lack of Spider acrobatics in the first solo? Please, it's full, enjoy it. Energy is added by the abundance of diverse locations - the action jumps from one remarkable European city to another.
However, if we consider the new film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe from the point of view of semantic content, then involuntarily there is a feeling of deja vu. Simply put, the inner experiences of the local Peter Parker played out earlier, and the outdated idea of the relationship of power and responsibility here also decided to use. On the other hand, the creators moved away from the state of the creative crisis by the fact that such techniques did not become parasitic on the old, but once again reminded that Spider-Man is someone who tends to tinker, be hard-thinking and commit rash actions. Of course, with the correction that Holland fits into the image of a schoolboy who combines a simple life with heroism, much better than his predecessors, which makes it easier for the viewer to identify himself with the hero, which means that there is a certain fresh view of all this good here. And when you consider that the current emotional state of Parker is preceded by the events of Homecoming, Infinity War and Endgame, it becomes clear that his moral growth has a completely different scale and direction. Peter realized that heroes like Tony Stark not only fight the enemy, but also bear the brunt of the devastating consequences of the fight, so he feels he is not ready for it. Mysterio also contributes to the development of Spider-Man’s personality. Star of "The Enemy," "Destruction" and "Stringer" Jake Gyllenhaal fits into such an ambiguous image, and moreover, the appearance of Mysterio explains why Spider’s story arc began in “Confrontation”. I doubt it's just a coincidence.
“Far From Home” may not be a new phenomenon in popular culture and certainly will not be characterized as the best picture about Spider-Man, since at least the second film of Sam Raimi and the animated film about Spider universes it is exactly inferior as a work of art for elaboration, but within the framework of the cultural phenomenon exhibited by Kevin Feige on the world stage, his contribution is quite significant. He not only set a decisive and firm point in one of the main plot monoliths of the cinematic universe - the story of Tony Stark and his successor, but also hinted at a very promising future. And at the same time he gave one of the best post-credits scenes in the history of comic books (there are only two, but we are talking about the first).
Now Marvel Studios is on the line. Their paintings are excellent examples of a good entertaining movie. The movie universe, created by Kevin Feige, collects colossal sums with each of his films. Beginning eleven years ago as the “Iron Man” that became her symbol, she has now said goodbye to him, honoring him properly and coming to the end of the third phase of her cycle of existence. The affirmative point in this phase, just became the film "Spider-Man: Far from home.
The film continues the story arc of the “friendly neighbor”, being the sequel to “Homecoming” – a reboot of the Spider-Man film franchise, which appeared after Marvel took the rights to the character from Sony “for rent”. Twenty-third film in the Cinematic Universe. The director, as in the case and with the first picture, was American John Watts.
The plot of the tape unfolds after the fateful click in Infinity War and the events of Endgame. Tony Stark saved the universe from Thanos. Everyone that Titan sprayed is back. Peter Parker remains without a mentor. The world is without Iron Man. And the dangers don't diminish. This time, the Elements of Earth, Water, Air and Fire are threatened. In addition, out of nowhere appears a new unknown hero – Mysterio, actively fighting monsters. Peter himself, tired of superhero affairs, goes with the class on a tour of Europe with a plan to win the heart of MJ, which seems to him honed to the smallest detail.
Just like the Marvel movies themselves. After all, over the years of the existence of the universe, and its unconditional development, the studio bosses were able to accurately deduce the formula of a successful blockbuster, which only remains to polish, improve and modify. That Spider-Man: Away from home, he demonstrates with obvious success. This is manifested in everything from the features of the presentation of the plot and ending with the work with the characters. However, does Spider-Man go so far from its foundations amid emerging changes and improvements?
At first glance, it may seem that the history of the picture is as simple and non-trivial as possible. But that's not quite the case. If you look at things more substantively, it becomes obvious that at least an attempt to surprise the viewer in the script takes place. The film tries to present the familiar superhero plot development scheme in a slightly different way, not radically changing, but transforming it. From this, the usual situations that can raise questions, for example, associated with the constant disappearance of Peter and the appearance of Spider-Man, are played much more subtly and naturally.
In addition, the story does not hesitate to demonstrate unexpected turns, which, of course, never claim to the heights of the skill of drama, but are quite capable of astonishing inexperienced viewers. In many ways, this applies to more insignificant for the plot of the film itself, but very important for the entire cinematic universe moments.
As the final film of the third phase, Spider-Man: Far From Home at the same time paves the way for a new, perhaps larger confrontation that Feige conceived, weaving a pair of threads into the web of the fourth phase. The story of “Endgame” gets answers to all the remaining questions, the future of the universe acquires no less questions new.
"Far From Home" absorbed the best that was in "Homecoming", retaining the ease of presentation and comedy of a charming youth film, multiplying all this by a much prettier action. Humor became more, he became more conversational and situational. Thanks in large part to the sweet couple. Betty and Ned, although Peter himself, and even Fury did not skimp on good jokes.
The placement of accents on the romantic line and the constant change of locations allowed the tape to completely emancipate in the eyes of the audience, becoming an illustration of how the life of one of the coolest Avengers can be shown as close as possible to the life of ordinary people. He is the “Friendly Neighbor Spider-Man.”
Very pleased with the approach of director John Watts and screenwriters Chris McKenn and Eric Sommers to reveal the characters. Each of the main actors is individual and has a special appeal. Even minor characters do not look cardboard, and are present in the frame only for extras.
The picture works with the personality of the Spider on a more subtle level, especially not relying on the time-tested and inherent in the genre of the development of the hero, thereby making him more human. Spider-Man Holland is really “childish” worried about teenage problems, which looks natural to him. And at the same time, he is serious and dedicated to the problems that lie ahead, put on a suit. Throughout the film, the idea of growing up without a mentor and a loved one is traced. If the first film was about becoming a hero, the second was about taking responsibility for the harsh world of danger and deception.
Deception is the second most important theme in the film. Nothing inspires confidence, no one can be one hundred percent reliable, no one can be trusted. This story arc is revealed through Mysterio, an absolutely amazing character, for the sake of scenes with which it is only worth going to the cinema. The image of Jake Gyllenhaal is surprising and interesting.
The personality of Quentin Beck, who came from a parallel universe to fight the Elementals, is a skillful technique of playing with audience expectations. The way Mysterio's ability is realized is at least entertaining and very inventive. It is on his ability that the lion’s share of hurricane action rests, raising the level of use of special effects to an incredible level. The scenes in which Beck uses his power to the maximum are the real highlight of the picture. The fact that from the point of view of shooting and technical performance in general, the film is perfectly executed and it is not necessary to say at all.
The character of MJ, played by Zendai, stands out, especially in comparison with his own copy from previous films. Now it is not just a girl who is always in trouble, but a girl who has her own opinion on everything, able to stand up for herself, especially if there is a mace at hand. Perhaps the best role of Zendai, who behind the face of a cynical introvert outsider was able to perfectly reveal the image of a fragile and insanely cute girl. I really only dream about this MJ!
Of course, Spider-Man: Away from home, a movie that can surprise you. This is an easy youth comedy, full of ridiculous funny situations, shy silence, stupid good jokes, fighting evil, searching for truth and love. A worthy conclusion to the third phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, drawing on its past and already looking into its future. A film that is truly imbued with the spirit of adventure.
John Watts competently approached the implementation of the sequel. Not trying to oppress the merits of the original, he treated the original source in the form of comics with love, giving the character exactly the field for life on the screen, to which he should belong. Therefore, it is safe to say that the current “Spider-Man” is not far from the house of the essence of its protagonist, moreover, he is closer to him than all other variations. His home, more than ever before, stands among the typical teenage problems mixed with threats of universal scale. And that's good, of course.
After the epic finale of “the Avengers” on the screens comes the continuation of “Spider-Man”, which for me was very much expected. Peter Parker and his classmates go on vacation to Europe. However, carefree rest will not happen – there is a new threat in the face of secret creatures that cause natural disasters and Nick Fury calls for the help of Spider-Man.
I can say that the continuation was successful. Marvel managed to make an excellent adventure movie in which action, drama, comedy are great, it is interesting to watch the development of the characters here, because they experience events that are close to the viewer: school holidays, first love, indecision to admit their feelings, etc.
As for the visual component here, it is good, the special effects are at the highest level and I would say not without amazing moments, in general from the visual point of view - this movie reminded me of Doctor Strange, I can say that some scenes were great. I liked the change of locations, the heroes quickly drove through Europe, here you can see the views of Venice, Prague, Berlin, etc. About the plot in some moments surprised, the viewing time, as always flew in one breath.
About actors.
Tom Holland, Peter Parker Spider-Man, after the events of the Avengers and the loss of his mentor Peter is experiencing a loss, he is no longer so naive and he has torn between duty to people and their salvation and the opportunity to be an ordinary teenager, Tom emotionally played the experiences of his character, indifferent to look at his throwing was impossible. Jake Gyllenhaal, Mysterio, one of my favorite actors, finally got into superhero movies. And I can say that Jake in the image is great, his character is mysterious and unpredictable, the image turned out bright and the costume is testable. Zendaya, M.J., love interest of Peter, Zendei paired with Tom looked quite good, her character turned out to be witty, funny with a sense of humor. Samuel L. Jackson, Nick Fury, can be said to have "spoiled" the holiday spider, Jackson as always in the form of harsh, but fair.
So, “Spider-Man: Far From Home was a successful sequel to Homecoming and a sequel to the Avengers, a summer blockbuster that made a pleasant impression, I would say light, boring with a great visual cinema with unexpected plot twists that surprise, so I look forward to continuing the adventures of Peter Parker.
P.S. The scenes after the credits are simply bombastic, do not rush to leave the theater.
As in the previous film “Spider-Man: Homecoming”, the story of the film is built around the problems of growing up a teenager, building relationships with peers, taking responsibility for their actions, gaining and destroying idols. The "superhero" conflict here again goes like a background and again, as if deliberately deprived of a large scale. And again, we have a great antagonist on the screen to match the Vulture from the previous tape. There are no problems with logic and motivation; perhaps, the lack of a full disclosure of the antagonist’s background can be attributed to the disadvantage, but this is not required for a villain for one film.
In many ways, the struggle of Spider-Man with the enemy in the “superhero” conflict is also tied to the growing up of Peter Parker in ordinary life, associated with making a certain and decisive step towards independence and finding himself. In fact, this is what we should get from such films and what was at the heart of the original comics - through an intriguing plot in a bright shell to convey to the target audience complex and important thoughts.
Usually, to surprise the audience with a visual, in a superhero movie, special effects are avoided and rarely resort to non-standard ways of shooting what is happening. In recent years, diversity has become a little more. Of the bright representatives, I immediately recall “Doctor Strange” in 2016. “Spider-Man: Away from home, he also wants to stand out. In action scenes, the production is at a good level, periodically the eye notices complex long takes. I want to show a special admiration for the climax scene in which Peter is lost in the illusions built by Mysterio - she gives something fantastic, even psychedelic, which, in my opinion, is bold and new for this genre. From a technical point of view, the film was also performed at the highest level.
The same can be said about the actors in the film. This time, the producers tried and brought the inimitable Jake Gyllenhaal to the set. He played his role 100%. They had a great duet with Tom Holland. There are also no complaints about the main role: Holland performs his work with dignity.
After Avengers: Endgame, it was necessary to give a new round of development of the multi-billion dollar franchise. And with the goal of Spider-Man: Far from home, he did very well. The film is an outlet after the denouement of the confrontation with Thanos and at the same time gives the film series a new breath and a new key character, around whom the main conflicts of future films and crossovers are likely to revolve. In addition, before us the tape is not so much about saving the world from evil and destruction, but about growing up, about the problems of adolescence, about intrapersonal conflicts and so on. Spider-Man: Far From Home is not a filler that fills an empty space in the cinematic universe, but a completely self-contained film that will be understandable and pleasant to a wide range of viewers.
This film very competently adopted the best components of “Infinity War” and “Endgame” – frantic dynamics, constantly changing locations, a bunch of fan service, and incredible, mind-blowing (though not so large-scale) action that just tears you down the tower and makes you look at all this action with eyes wide open and mouth open.
The sequel makes one simple thing clear: Tony Stark will no longer come to the rescue, and his absence is so palpable that at some point it becomes scary for Spider. Parker must now surround himself with people he can trust rather than blindly trusting everyone he meets. It is time to take responsibility for your decisions.
Mysterio is not the Vulture. And you have to be prepared for that. His motivation may not be as grounded and lifelike as Keaton’s, and he doesn’t have the intimidating appearance, but Mr. Beck is far more dangerous, insidious, and inventive than Toomes. He is a very strong strategist, and in his pocket there are always a couple of extra tricks.
A powerful three-minute twist, which runs through the entire cinematic universe and refers us to the origins of the MCU, happens very timely, fits in quite concisely, and gives a new round of history, making it more intriguing and exciting.
Of the small minuses, it is possible to note only the somewhat crumpled and confused beginning of the film, which is slightly dissonant with the dramatic and measured ending of “Endgame”. But maybe that’s my personal perception, and I just wasn’t quite ready for such a pitch.
Overall, the film turned out to be a great sequel to Homecoming, a good ending to Infinity Saga, and the entire Phase 3 MCU.
Sometimes good comedy scenes.
Details on the minuses:
- The most disgusting scene is when Mysterio begins to present his gang of gangsters and his daring plan. This is so clumsy, so not in the style of Marvel, where the viewer is given to think up secondary (if not tertiary) moments himself (or watch a review of avid fans on YouTube) that just vomiting!!! Reminiscent of old spy movies, where the spy hero hangs caught on a rope above the vent of a volcano, and ' Doctor Evil' tells him his sinister plan. Oh, that's it! The logical way out for the story would be, for example, that Fury, learning from Spider about the deception, would punch the entire gang through a secret base and in 10 seconds presented everyone, and the plan would reveal Mysterio already in a near-death state. And so it's just stupid and falls out of the style of filing the entire MCU.
Captain Marvel with a super-galactic pager out of reach, Thor, whose people have settled on Earth too, Dr. Strange opening portals around the planet to move around too. STATE?? Idiot excuse. Question 2: If Mysterio won, what's the point? A miracle baba will fly, which rams spaceships, rolls like a baby and fixes everything. There is no depth of logic!
- No need to put a new suit, if the top suit - ' Iron Spider'. You could have made a change over him, too. It is clear that the scene is designed to show the heir to Stark, then again everything is stupid with the so-called logic. The music of AC DC at this moment is ridiculously ostentatious (again, clumsy, probably the director considered the audience completely stupid, who will not catch up that the spider is like the new Stark)!
I bought positive reviews, although my intuition told me otherwise and for good reason. In recent years, Marvel has fallen to the bottom. Yes, the picture and special effects are wonderful, but there must also be a sane scenario. Where is this fashion for spoiling heroes? First they screwed up Logan, then the new Spider, then Thor, then the Avengers, and in the new Spider, they continued the tradition. Why are Spiders skinny, stupid and cowardly? Since the first film, I was unpleasant to watch such a “hero”, a loser and a loser, but could I at least make him look like a man? No, he's still a stupid and cowardly crumb... Therefore, watching his adventures is uninteresting and even sometimes unpleasant (what is the scene in the bar - I almost left the hall).
I also don’t know why I had such a child rating. I'm sorry, but it's not 12+, it's probably 6+ - it's only teenagers with all their teenage complexes and stuff. And I love movies about teenagers - I even prefer them sometimes, but even then I was scolded by the behavior of these nerds. Heroes have never kissed normally! Only complained, wrinkled and twisted faces... Did the creators think it was funny? No, it wasn't funny, it looked stupid!
Speaking of humor. He's not in the movie at all. It may be claimed, but it's not funny.
And the drama is artificial. So many references to Tony, and they are made clumsy and rude, and alas, do not cause even a stingy audience tears, only irritation. It’s like hanging a huge poster “THIS IS TIME TO CRY” or, as in stupid comedies, when there is a voiceover laughter, so that a short-sighted viewer understands that here it’s time to laugh, there would be enough behind-the-scenes sobs – or else the viewer is callous and will not understand.
From the positive, apart from the picture, is Jake Gyllenhall, of course. Here, I think, there are few who did not mention him, and his amazing performance, despite the simple script for the hero, and his charisma. Unfortunately, this actor in the film looks alien, like a king among children in a sandbox. That is why the additional scene after the film looks natural and it is almost the best scripted move for the whole film! (but the second scene after the credits, in my opinion, also refers to my first claim, but I will not spoiler which of the characters in it “lowered” this time, fashion is fashion).
Of course, it is difficult to put a very low rating, still visually the film draws. But I regret the money spent on the cinema - it would be better to look at home later, I would not lose anything.
5 out of 10
I am increasingly convinced that everything in cinema is cyclical and that the more superhero stories are filmed, the more big corporations will profit. However, in an attempt to stand out, you run to the cinema and think that you are likely to buy a ticket for another session and carefully avoid the new spider, but once you approach the schedule, you see that there are no escape routes planned, since the Marvel occupiers are everywhere. I'm kidding, of course. However, as everyone knows, in every joke.. (well, come on).
I will never be able to understand and accept the success of Marvel, although I try in vain to discover the universe for myself. But something doesn't stick all the time. Grand success for me is justified solely by the historical factor, which, of course, is important in the film industry. Marvel is primarily action, bright battle scenes, grandiose special effects and pathosy characters. But behind this tinsel lies a simple truth: came, bought a weighty bucket of popcorn, and in addition, a liter of soda, ate, at the same time watched something relaxing. However, after watching you come out with a completely fresh head, because it is unlikely that you will suffer, worry about the characters of the film, because there is no drama here.
By the way, another interesting fact: the viewer must be ' in the topic'. If the viewer ' is not in the topic' of this entire epic with the exaltation of Tony Stark into the pair of gods, and if (ooh) is not familiar with the finale 'The Avengers', then you do not belong in the hall, go away, free, forget like a terrible dream. There will be an infinite number of references that should punch the viewer into a stingy tear. Particularly interested persons will be indignant about opinions that do not fit into the mainstream. But such people have no choice about which movies to go to, if the films that are really interested come out at an inconvenient time, and reviews and ratings are beckoning. Please be merciful, we are trying to come to a logical conclusion.
Activity.
The reason you can lure someone to a session (in this case, apparently me) is a wonderful Zendaya. I can’t say with ease that she’s a brilliant actress, or has a talent worthy of the main meters of Hollywood, but there is something about her, something very catchy. Quite a pleasant personality, diverse (cinema, dance, music), who in the future is able to show their capabilities in cinema to the fullest. Acting game Zendai in the film 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' can be characterized as capacious ' funny'. In general, the same can be said about the entire cast of the film.
What I also love is watching funny interviews with Zendai and Tom Holland. The two look perfect together, although I didn’t feel the sympathy between the characters at all, they are great in the format ' Brother & Sister', or ' Best Friends Forever'. Well, you get it. 'Chemistry' between the characters is approximately at zero, however, this does not prevent them from harmoniously working in pairs.
Tom Holland is an interesting and promising actor, as, for example, Josh Hutcherson was at one time. I hope that the variety of films and genres will absorb the young actor and capture in this cinematic cycle. However, everything has its time.
Jake Gyllenhaal... something is passing, quite by. The actor on whom you have high hopes in terms of the game is lost against the background of Holland. Funny? Yes. Angry? Maybe just a little bit.
By the way, I am still under the impression of the alternative version of Aunt May (Marisa Tomei). What to say?! Say yes, very uncanonical, but not trivial and definitely deserves attention.
In my opinion, the "secondary characters" are very lame, whose roles are significant, but not fully disclosed. Such defects should be eliminated.
'Spider-Man: Away from home' is an easy movie for a great pastime in the company of friends. If you are a fan of Marvel, then put aside all doubts, the film is worth your participation as a viewer. Find 'your movie' and never change your preferences to please the opinion of the majority.
There is a limit to everything and it is more senseless to expect from a film focused on children and adolescents any clear script or logic of what is happening, and so they siphon.
I’ll start with the story of my fascination with the spider franchise in any form, whether it’s an animated series or a movie, I ran to the TV or the movies at the first opportunity.
With new impressions of what I saw, I, like every self-respecting fan, expected the continuation with impatience and guessed how it would turn out.
With the release of the first part of the film trilogy with Toby McGuire, as usual, completely immersed in the visualization of childhood dreams about the exploits of Spider-Man and his story with Mary Jane. Elaboration of characters, impressive for those times graphics, clear plot, excellent casting. All this in the mix gave full confidence for a successful continuation. Which, by the way, turned out to be even better and more interesting ... as if you grew up with the heroes, graduated from school, got your first job, rented housing and moved to the big city to become someone and self-realize.
The formation of the characters, their thoughts and the further development of the plot covered my imagination, in addition to the good villains and black humor of J.K. Simmons and his hero, the editor of the newspaper where Peter Parker worked. This movie was interesting to watch. We worried, admired and again fell in love with the heroic tandem of actors and their heroes. But it so happened that the third part on the wave of popularity suddenly failed critics and could not justify the further development of this universe.
We launched a new casting and Andrew Garfield, along with Emma Stone, tried to breathe new emotions into the character of their heroes and the film franchise reached a new round of progress in terms of graphics and visualization. But there you can still feel the energy and electrification between the characters, although the writers and redesigned the scenes in school and made the characters older than the previous ones. There is a new trend for pumped geeks and banal plot snot in the slightest sagging in the plot. There was an imbalance in the combination of action and the story itself. Sluggish narration and unnecessary digressions now and then knocked the rhythm, made the movie more spectacular, but at the same time banal in terms of history. In the cinema it was not so interesting to watch, and at home there was no desire to review.
And after two parts, this universe was decided to close and start with a clean slate, making a curtsey towards the Avengers'
From that moment on, the Spider-Man franchise itself became just a piece of the puzzle within the framework of the giant project ' Avengers', his appendage and filler.
Let’s start with the casting:
Tom Holland is absolutely harmonious in the image of a teenager, hesitation on his face and some acting. But as a character, there is absolutely no emotion. Compare it in the first and second movie. There he climbed up and bullied, youthful maximalism was visible, and here he looks like a pale copy of Stark. Now compare McGuire's character in the first and second film. You can see his progress as a person, his ability to come together at the right time and make important decisions. You can see emotions towards life, family and beloved girl. And here the actor just plays the role of a teenager.
Zendaya is a girl who played the role of MJ, a strange, unattractive, absolutely asexual person (Kirsten Dunst and Emma Stone are simply divine and out of competition), causing more bewilderment than emotions. In short, an autistic find.
Jake Gyllenhaal - by his dramatic roles you can learn acting (Stringer, Enemy, Prisoners, Zodiac) He's playing for Mysterio, as they say, for all the money. First you feel sorry for him, then you hate him. It's an amazing transformation. I’m not ashamed of him anymore, it’s nice to watch him. It is associated with the main twist during the film.
Samuel L. Jackson is as authentic as Nick Fury. But the charisma has already evaporated, for the whole film a couple of funny moments with him and bewilderment ... (apparently he just got tired of this role) plays sluggishly and without desire.
John Favreau is a humorous actor in the role of Happy as before and is generally harmoniously sewn into the script, but the role clearly goes as an addition to the friend of Spider-Man, who in this film decided to make a form dummy.
Marisa Tomei - Aunt May, aka Happy's girlfriend, this was clearly invented to just give a little screen time to the actress, because if you remove this novel, then the need for her participation is leveled, while Happy, unlike her, is the link between Parker and Tony Stark.
The plot is far-fetched, because they decided to link children’s holidays and action in Europe with the offended former staff of Stark Industries and the tricks of ala The illusion of deception with interspersed modern technologies.
Something tells me that the writers could not figure out how to even more illiterately suck out the appearance of the main villain and associate it with the avengers. It looks like a symbiosis of a human drone with a spider in a suit from part 3 of the first universe ' Enemy in reflection ' but without spandex, but with cheat glasses.
Feelings from the plot - I watch the first half 'EuroTour' and then sharply switch to Doctor Strange, then why does Spider-Man appear and Tony Stark is mentioned, and with him 'The Avengers'.
Separately, it is worth mentioning the moronic caricature and helpless teachers, whose dialogue will make you feel like you are watching failed sketches by Jim Carrey and Eddie Murphy. Also worth noting is no 'chemistry' between Parker and Mary Jane.
All these plans about the Eiffel Tower and the pendant, just drove into a stupor, and trying to attract the attention of Mary Jane with the help of a friend, just ridiculous and ridiculous. Especially if you compare the first films, where Peter Parker and Gary Osborne - best friends, fought for the girl. The cinema apparently wanted to please everyone: critics, and fans of twists and fans of curves, and children's audience. The inconsistency of elements of road-movie and superhero action makes you turn off the brain and just wait for beautiful graphics and the appearance of old characters. The authors failed to interest neither the script, nor the twists (of which there are only 2, and then, if it were not for the antagonist, they would not be at all), nor the humor that descended on the children's theme and drowned there in oblivion, nor the views of European cities (lacking space, as in New York), which were chosen because of the change of scenery and as justification for the script.
In general, the pieces of the puzzle did not come together, and some were confused by the plot of the film and completely forgotten at the end. The film is aimed at children and spider fans. But only fans (children) grow very quickly, and the creators apparently finally fell into childhood.
In the first spider films I grew up and grew up, and in the last I began to degrade.
Outside the window, the cool equator of summer rages. Business activity came to naught, pushing someone to the southern seas, who to the garden to collect a bug from young potato shoots. And in cinemas traditionally rules the ball summer blockbuster.
The first decade of July was marked by the last episode of the “Infinity Saga” from Marvel in the form of a sequel to the re-launched “Spider-Man”, which this time “Far from Home”.
Peter Parker and his friends go on a summer vacation in Europe. However, friends are unlikely to be able to rest - Peter will have to agree to help Nick Fury solve the mystery of creatures causing natural disasters and destruction across the continent.
Saving the backbone of the team of the first part of “Spider” (director, composer, screenwriters and pumping the operator of “Power Rangers”), Marvel wrote a worthy epilogue to the third story arc, mentioning the main Avengers with a kind word and preparing the groundwork for future superheroes. But about them another time, and today about Spider-Man, in the everyday life of Peter Parker.
“Spider-Man: Far from home is soaked in juicy summer freshness like Melitopol cherry. Visual and music (even on the final credits in anticipation of the classical scene after them) will not let the viewer go to the cries of cinematic cleaners “What are you waiting for?” The session is over! And fork out for a trip to IMAX, you should take a tourist suitcase and check for a European visa, because the immersion in the plot will be total. Once seen any of the creations of Marvel on the big screen, the new “Spider-Man” is unlikely to surprise. But the creatives from the studio should be credited for the fact that for 11 years in a row (since the first “Iron Man” in 2008), they tirelessly raised their professional bar, and eventually fixed it at such a height that somewhere in the world saddened one Sergey Bubka.
We will never know exactly how many stars there are in the sky, what Gogol wrote in the second volume of Dead Souls, and what Tom Holland has to do with Holland. But there is one thing called 100% infa. Tom Holland and Peter Parker are the same person. The middle-aged viewer under the mask of Spider can remember Tobey Maguire well, vaguely - Andrew Garfield, but will not deny the obvious - 23-year-old Tom in the image of a super-schooler took out a lighter and gave a light to his grandfather Toby (44 years) and uncle Andrew (36 years). The young actor plays the updated image of Peter Parker so harmoniously that I would like to sincerely wish increased bonuses to the casting director of Marvel for such an accurate hit with the performer.
Unlike Germany after June 1944, the main character’s fuse is more than enough to fight on two fronts. Gathering his will in a fist and his thoughts in a bridle, young Peter struggles to take the baton from the late Tony Stark [I hope this is not a spoiler?] Have you seen the latest Avengers? Forever retired from business and from our world playboy-millionaire philanthropist bequeathed to Parker all his nano- and non-nano technologies, providing them for balance the heaviest burden of responsibility, from raising which the student is kept by natural fear along with the playing hormone. The latter turns the superhero into a shy nerd who loses speech at the glance of his beloved MJ. And this, perhaps, is the only thing for which the tape can be seriously made with a finger “A-ta-ta!”. As much as his character is cunning, strong and quick in the fight against universal evil, he is irritatingly helpless in love affairs. These plot pits, like their airborne counterparts, will not be easily tolerated by all viewers.
Competition to Holland in the plot and performance is adequately imposed by Jake Gyllenhaal, who, according to the recognition of moviegoers in the hall, has the features of the Greek god. His game, in principle, too. In individual scenes against the background of Marvel extras, ageless Jake looks like a guest star in a low-budget sitcom that one silent eyebrow movement is able to solve the episode and make his individual fans sweat. Like all comic villains, it has a wrinkled motivation, but here, rather, a question for the writers. The actor plays his number like a representative of ancient Olympus.
After the minor and gloomy "Avengers: Endgame", the epilogue "Far From Home" is such a fun multi-colored sketch. The film has enough humor for every taste – from simple visual to subtle wordplay, which is mainly responsible for minor characters. Using the recipe of the Ant-Man dilogy, in the background, the creators sketched several shapeless blots without a personal story, but with one goal - to amuse the viewer in between the fights of good and evil. This is not to say that it has gone wrong.
"Spider-Man: “Away from home” is hardly a must see category. If you miss it, the viewer will lose nothing. At the same time, seeing the latest creation of Marvel is a good way to spend two hours without straining your brain and rest after collecting a bug from young potato shoots.

End of Phase Three! Period? Ellipsis? A semicolon.
Well, there was a whole picture of a decade. 'Avengers: Endgame' completed the story of the Avengers, and released 'Spider-Man: Away from home' completes the entire phase and sets the direction vector for the future of the cinematic universe. The Avengers bowed, putting all the pieces of the puzzle together into one picture, leaving Spider-Man to answer the remaining questions. Did the film answer them all? And yes and no.
The film begins with a tribute to fallen heroes - Iron Man, Black Widow and, for some reason, Captain America, but most likely the students who made the screensaver did not know that Cap went back in time to return the tesseract. In general, surprisingly, the film begins atypically for the latest films, not only Marvel, but Sony as a whole: for a very long time I have not heard the original song from the Sony screensaver. Since the early 2000s. Peter’s schoolmates, survivors of the Leap, as they call Tony’s Click, who overturned Thanos’ cases, are surprised to find that the surviving classmates are 5 years older than they are, and the victims buried by relatives unexpectedly come back to life. Peter Parker himself, the only Avenger available to the community, must fend off questions from reporters and torn between the life of a superhero and an ordinary teenager, as well as the loss of his mentor Tony Stark. Tired of all this, he and his classmates go on a tour of Europe, trying to abstract from the path of the hero, where he intends to confess his feelings to MJ.
Here comes Mysterio, wonderfully played by Jake Gyllenhaal. His Mysterio is amazing. He deftly casts himself as the new hero the world so desperately needs after losing Iron Man. He famously cracks down on Elemental. However, everything is not so simple, Quentin Beck creates a convincing legend, which is willingly believed not only Peter, but even Nick Fury, although not completely. In fact, Beck worked for Tony in the past and developed his own technology system, which Stark later privatized. Of course, during his life, Tony made many enemies and detractors, like the same Vulture from the first film. It may even seem like a disadvantage - a second time to use another offended by fate and Stark. But on the other hand, it is logical that after the death of Iron Man, people who were offended by him came to light who could tarnish his memory. What Mysterio successfully copes with, he yearns to earn the attention and recognition of the public, becoming a new hero, defeating the monsters he created himself. That's why Mysterio, in my opinion, turned out better than the Vulture. He is cunning, insidious, smarter and thinks big. It is not surprising that the audience liked the new villain in the first place thanks to Gylenhall, which neither the audience, nor I think, Marvel herself will not want to let go.
The film itself is stuffed with references to movies, comics and even Spider-Man games. I really enjoyed the moment when Peter is under AC/DC, as for any Marvel fan a minute of nostalgia for the first 'Iron Man'. In general, the film can be considered a tribute to the memory of Iron Man: around the world, residents arrange small memorials in memory of him, and the moment with the illusion when he rises from the grave will be remembered for a long time. The theme of the multiverse is almost untouched here, it can be seen that it is only being felt and, perhaps, it will be fully disclosed in the sequel ' Doctor Strange'. But the film plays a very relevant topic of fakes in real life and surveillance of everything and everything. Separately, I want to praise the special effects - they are gorgeous. Elimentals, illusions created by Mysterio for Spider-Man. The film is also rich in romantic relationships: Peter’s plans to conquer Michelle, Ned’s fleeting relationship with a classmate and even Happy begins to snoop on Aunt May. However, everything is just outlined here and the development of the couples’ relationship will already be in the next Spider-in-Chief movie. Of the shortcomings, I could count the soundtrack, written specifically for the film. Of course, there are no different locations in Europe, where Peter’s friends constantly move, the music is good and creates some atmosphere, but apart from the main theme of Spider-Man, Black in Back will remain the most memorable. I also didn’t like the moment I got the new costume, which I thought was a joke, given that the movie was about teenagers.
In summary, this is a worthy completion of the third phase. There are gorgeous graphics and special effects, good jokes, charismatic colorful antagonist and yes, unexpected twists in the plot! One final, shown in the first scene after the credits gives the groundwork for the triquel, which promises to be very interesting, and the second - food for thought and a new batch of questions. The film is titled 'Spider-Man: Away from Home & #39 is one of the few examples where the sequel outperforms the first installment. It is a must-see!
That’s the end of another round of films in the Marvel universe. There is still some uncertainty ahead, as little is known about the next projects. Most of the news is usually about the level of rumors and things like that. But it is unlikely that Disney will remain silent for so long, and plans for new films should be announced this year. But as for Far From Home, the second film about a friendly neighbor from John Watts was certainly not the most anticipated project of the cinematic universe, but still perceived as a kind of conditional sequel to Endgame, in which some viewers might even want to see the outlines of the further development of the cinematic universe. Looking a little ahead, it is worth saying that Far From Home turned out to be very predictable, and in general it is clearly not able to surprise with anything, however, there are really qualitative moments here that pull the film to the level of a strong middle peasant.
After defeating Thanos and all the events that happened in the Endgame, a little more than six months passed. The world is still struggling with the tragedy, but life goes on. Peter Parker takes his class to Europe. The latter hopes to have a good time, visit many attractions, and finally get close to Mary Jane. But his dreams are not destined to come true, since even in Europe Parker is overtaken by trouble, and with them there is a mysterious Mysterio, whose real name is Quentin Beck. Mysterio turns out to be a very respectable guy, and in fact, he tries his best to help for the benefit of all mankind. That's exactly what the Avengers did. However, Parker suddenly falls a mountain of responsibility, which left behind Tony Stark.
If your memories of Homecoming are still fresh in your memory, then in general you can easily imagine what the sequel is. Here, in general, almost all the same techniques are used in the narrative, adjusted for the scene, and of course, new antagonists. Moving the scene to Europe was quite favorable for the sequel. Although the film is not perceived as something incredibly fresh, but the local locations are really happy and selected extremely successfully. As for the other significant plus of the film, Mysterio turned out to be a really high-quality character. Jake Gyllenhaal played one of his worthy roles and almost every appearance in the frame really pleased. Of the rest, we can note once again a good action, and special effects, respectively. But there's almost no problem with that kind of thing in Marvel movies. Except probably Captain Marvel, where the action turned out to be something very bland.
Alas, but without shortcomings, of course, did not do, and first of all I want to note in this vein frankly ambiguous story, which will find a place for various kinds of illogicalities, platitudes and other things. And in general, it is probably obvious that Far From Home was made with an eye on a younger audience. From that there are full of frankly ridiculous episodes, and often poor-quality humor, which, however, will please the young viewer. Of the characters, with the exception of Beck, there is no one to single out. I had the impression that everyone just didn’t care, something was played, and fine. Zendaya generally passed with an equally indifferent face literally the whole film. And just so you understand, there are really a lot of episodes with her, and by the end there are no more forces to look at her “acting game”. I don’t know who played the worst part, Larson or Zendaya. Holland and Jackson seemed to realize that they were filming just another sequel. The last one seems to disappear altogether. But on the whole, Far From Home is still entertaining, and if there were no Gyllenhaal and Europe, then I could safely remove a few points from my final score.

The final movie of the Marvel Universe has already been released in the world box office and without a doubt came out no worse than the first part. The only major problem for me personally was overhumor. This time it was even bigger than the previous picture. Thus, almost every scene was filled with jokes and ridiculous moments, which a little darkened the viewing. The humour was not bad and sometimes made me laugh. I also did not like how the creators treated the cult villain. He was mercilessly merged, like all the other evil characters in the solo superheroes. This is a serious problem for Marvel, along with the fear of killing heroes. Now to the merits of the film, which is an order of magnitude more flaws. I'll start with the same Mysterio. Despite the fact that it was obvious to me from the very beginning of the film that he was a hidden villain, the creators still managed to bring us a surprise. It's about his background. I did believe the hole in space because of the click, but what a surprise it was that in the solo, like in the first movie, there was a villain who somehow suffered because of Tony Stark. It was also surprising that a whole group of people worked on the deception, because it was different in the comics. In general, despite the complete predictability, Marvel managed to bring a surprise, which is worthy of admiration.
There are no complaints about the plot. The story turned out to be very easy and interesting. The acting game is back on top. There's a real feeling that Tom Holland is cast as Peter Parker. Also not pumped up Jake Gyllenhaal and Jacob Batalon, who perfectly coped with their roles and perfectly completed the tasks of implantation in the image. The special effects were at a good level. I especially liked the illusions created by Mysterio. They looked incredibly cool and beautiful. There was a desire to see this in the future. After the world scenes also left a positive impression. In the first, there is a cool groundwork for the future, which allows a huge platform for maneuver, and the second hints at a secret invasion. I would like to express my gratitude to the creators for the introductory video, which I personally consider to be a homage to the heroes we have seen on the screens for eleven years, and for the final inscription “In memory of Stan Lee and Stephen Ditko”. This is a light, summer movie that you can go to the cinema and relax.
Spider-Man has always been a friendly neighbor. His focus on teenagers gave the hero huge popularity, it also endowed the character with problems that are close to everyone, this is a deep character - a teenager with super abilities who must combine heroic life and ordinary. Marvel always knew what to do with Spider-Man. When he broke into the cinematic universe, it breathed new life into the film adaptation of the hero. He appeared in general films, he had his own solo album, and now, the second one, which resumed the trend, when the second film is even better than the first.
'Spider-Man: Away from home & #39; bigger, cooler, more elaborate than the first film. The story takes place in Europe, not in one city, but in several. Finally, we got rid of the stuffiness of the big city and shot a blockbuster in beautiful places. There was a lot of filming in nature - you have to give credit to the director. Yeah, it's a road trip. The dynamics of the plot, locations makes the film very dynamic - you can not get bored. There are no boring or passing scenes in this film. This film in its second half, culminating in a very dark. Peter Parker is alone and Tony Stark will not help him, and the stakes are higher than ever - the second film develops and moves forward the story of Spider-Man in the cinematic universe. There will be a reference to a video game for ps4, and I really almost fell out of orbit. There is a lot of fan service in the film, but the main one is after the credits. The plot in this film can be called the best that was in the films about Spider-Man. Events develop quickly, there is humor, there is drama, there are plot twists. This is the perfect adaptation of comics.
Tom Holland is still a great Peter Parker and Spider-Man. He's alive, you believe him. He can both humor and drama, and he smiles charmingly and generally plays a great face. He’s got chemistry with MJ, but I only saw it towards the end, Zendaya is not a very emotional character, and when finally their relationship develops, she finally begins to produce a normal game. Peter's environment is interesting. What is not a person, then a comic character, without jokes, teachers and schoolchildren throughout the film give something funny or funny. Jake Gyllenhaal, aka Mysterio, is a brilliant actor. In the movies he plays differently every time, watching him you realize that this man is an actor with a capital letter. Suffice it to recall his roles in 'Stringer' or 'Destruction'. He's great here too, but his character is very typical. Anyone else could have done this role, Gyllenhaal played well, but there was little to play. I hope he comes back again.
'Spider-Man: Away from Home' is the perfect conclusion to the third phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film is not as large-scale as 'Avengers: Endgame', but has its own charm and virtues. Spider-Man movies don’t have to be big because he’s just a friendly neighbor. This is the best Spider-Man movie you’ve ever seen on the big screen.
After the final chord 'The Avengers' - no doubt epic, large-scale and tragic - among all the other questions that arose, the main thing remained simple: 'and what next' Since it is quite obvious that the mega-successful Marvel superhero series will not put an end to its unstoppable progress for a long time. Where further this universe will turn, what places old heroes will take in it and what positions are reserved for new heroes - this remained the urgent thing that worried many loyal fans. And it is symbolic that the answer to the share of these questions had a friendly neighbor Spider-Man, who became a direct heir to Tony Stark, one of (if not the most) the main symbols of the entire cinematic universe. Of course, the new chapter of adventures of Peter Parker did not solve all the questions, and even thanks to the scenes after the credits gave rise to a lot of new, much more intriguing, but nevertheless it is here that the vector of further development and a new milestone of the post-vengeful era becomes more clear and clear, the symbol of which now becomes a growing and doubting Spider-Man.
It is the doubts of the hero under the weight of the assigned responsibility and dedicated to Marvel & #39;EuroTour'. After a hard five years of the absence of the majority of the population, the world quickly recovers, while Parker himself can not cope with the realization of the loss of the main mentor and the burden of the "main avenger" & # 39;, which now everyone is not without reason put on him. While the world needs its own protector, its new Iron Man, ready to stand with his steel chest to defend the planet at the cost of his own happiness, Parker’s world, in fact, consists of the desire to confess the feelings of his beloved girl and spend time with his best friend. And for the most part 'Away from home', of course, works as a good teenage romantic story, diluting the pathosy superheroes around, but this line, as it should, only complements the main one. Throughout the journey, Peter has to make an unfortunate choice between the protector of the innocent and the 16-year-old boy in love, and it is obvious that for the pure soul of Peter, the choice will not be in favor of the latter. No matter how much it is possible to ignore calls from Fury or run to the other side of the world - at the right moment a friendly neighbor will be ready to throw everything to save the world from destruction, but, sadly, even the most sophisticated suit will not be able to get rid of fears and worries: the fear of not having time and not justify hopes or the fear of undermining loved ones, coupled with heavy reflection on the cost of mistakes. And it is clear that for this eternally tossing teenager, who doubts his abilities, fears not to cope with responsibility and dreams of a quiet life, but at the same time understands that with great power comes great responsibility, will be a real deliverance, if not a blessing from the parallel earth, the sudden appearance of the very hero who will relieve the burden. For Parker's good fortune, Quentin Beck or, as he is more pleasantly called, Mysterio stands up to fight the terrifying threat of the elementals. Another detail necessary to grow up and become Parker as a true and independent hero.
It is Mysterio in the performance of the stunning (who would doubt) Jake Gyllenhaal seems in the eyes of Peter the very version of ' correct' Stark's heir is an adult, experienced and self-confident that, against the background of a 16-year-old teenager, is seen as a much better defender of the planet. He is the one who will help people at this moment believe in what is necessary, allowing Parker to believe in it for the time being, who, due to momentary weakness, will not be ready to step aside at the best moment. However, as always happens, Peter’s mistakes will be taken into account at the right time and the fate of the world will depend not on anyone else, but only on himself. Of course, at that very moment the big rock should start playing straight from Iron Man 39, so that not only Happy and Peter himself, but each of the audience finally understood that the faithful successor here and, no matter how much he blamed himself, still never ceased to be them. Yes, perhaps, he will remain as doubtful and fearful, but no one can be different. For any hero - whether a friendly neighbor, or a man in impenetrable armor - every day and every mission is full of doubts and fears, which you have to step over for the sake of all mankind and everyone around you in particular. Once this banner was carried by Tony Stark, now it is the turn of Peter Parker, who after all the events that are happening clearly will not be the former teenager from Brooklyn, whose only task for the evening was to collect the Death Star from Lego.
Nevertheless, despite the touching teenage romance and serious drama of becoming a hero, the most exciting detail ' Away from home' is its visual part. The tape is strikingly good in its action scenes, and one stunning illusion of Mysterio with a cemetery and school corridors covers the sensation of the entire visual feast & #39; Doctor Strange'. What, almost every scene with the hero of Gillenhaal is the absolute pinnacle of pleasure for the eyes and imagination, forcing the audience, like the heroes of the film, to torment themselves in doubts about the reality of the visible and fear what is hidden. A more perfect embodiment of the image of Mysterio on the big screen will be difficult to come up with, and not necessary. Watts once again managed to create a soulful and catchy adventure of the young hero, where two hours fly by too quickly and quite imperceptibly, and after them it remains only impatient to wait for the story to continue, which, as noted, will forever change the familiar life of Peter Parker. The same guy who, in Brooklyn or even in Prague and Venice, in spite of everything, always remains the most humane and understandable, but more importantly, he never ceases to feel like a friendly neighbor who, no matter how much he doubts himself, is ready to help at any second. Find such successors.
I want to share my thoughts on the Spider-Man movie: Far from home.
Spider-Man 2. The film takes place after the death of Tony Stark. Friendly neighbor Parker goes to the Eurotour with his class, and as it should go far from smoothly. All over the world, mysterious elementals appear, and the battle with them is no less mysterious Mysterio.
Studio ' Marvel & #39; developed the tactics of releasing their films. After a loud blockbuster comes a lamp hero. Spider-Man is a good movie, everything that was successful in the first film is repeated in the second only, twisted to the maximum. The plot of the film is interesting and finally we moved a little away from New York and went to sunny Venice, night Prague and visited Tower Bridge in London.
The secondary characters from the first part received significantly increased screen time, and as for Mysterio, he, if you count, almost more action scenes than Spider. Due to the excellent effects and graphics, they look just great. Love line is the best of all that was shot in spider films. Zendaya is a good actress, perfectly copes with her role; and MJ herself looks like an independent character, with a dark sense of humor and a firm character. Not like the pop blanks, from old movies.
The plot of the picture is made in excellent style, with dynamic changes of locations, and exciting turns until the very end. When you go to the cinema, you have 10 questions for the film, and when you leave the theater you have 20 of them and the theory 'What will happen next' and 'What is such a ugliness').
The only drawback of the film is the main character. In the first part, Peter wanted to be a vigilante. He does not succeed, he shook, pulls himself together and successfully corrects everything. In the new film, Parker does not want to be a vigilante, he shoals and fixes everything, well, almost everything. The character, like a superhero, stands in one place. I want to see his progress, his formation ' cult avenger' but everything remains in place. In fact, this is the first part on maximals. Tom Holland has another film on his contract, and I hope it gets renewed for a lot more movies. We are used to such a spider, he has a lot of potential as a character, and as an actor, I would not like to part with such a hero so quickly. Spider-Man 3 should be something new, with a powerful plot, and a more interesting Spider-Man.
In the film two scenes after the credits with a very cool cameo - fans will appreciate. I really liked the reference, at the very end, to the game Spider-Man PS4.
Spider-Man is a great movie and should not be missed. The pleasure you will get from the film is for sure, whether you are a geek or just a movie lover.

After the tragic events of Avengers: Endgame, people are trying to live their old lives and get used to the changes that have occurred. It took 5 years and after the return of the sprayed, someone comes home to find that other people have lived here for a long time, and someone needs to get used to the fact that the younger brother has become the older.
Peter Parker is experiencing the loss of his mentor and the one he looked up to when he decided to become a superhero.
"Away from home"
Peter goes with his classmates on a tour of Europe. He wants to take a break from the superhero routine, see the world and admit his love to MJ (Zendaya). There are reasons for concern because Peter is shy, and he also has a classmate Brad Bradson, who also wants to date her.
The situation is not facilitated by Nick Fury, who turned to Parker for help in overcoming the Elementals, natural elements that cause destruction throughout the Earth.
To help Peter comes Quentin Beck/Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal), who cooperates with Fury.
Impressions of the film.
The film confidently balances between superheroics and youth films “Sixteen Candles” and “EuroTour”.
Well-revealed the topic of teenage love, when two people love each other, but in every possible way hide it.
The action in the film became much more than in “Homecoming”, and flights on the web are amazing.
I liked the Spider-Mysterio duo. Until a certain point, they are real brothers in arms, and Holland and Gyllenhaal look good together.
The scenes with MJ and Peter are well written. Between the actors real chemistry and the authors convincingly built the reasons why the characters were interested in each other.
Result.
In my opinion, the best MCU film, the perfect conclusion to the 3rd phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the best Spider-Man film and so far the best blockbuster of this year.
Spider-Man is my childhood favorite superhero. I watched the second part with Tobey Maguire 5 times on the tape. And today, while watching Spider-Man: Far from home, I felt a warm nostalgia.
Peter Parker, along with the class, goes on a tour of Europe in hopes of taking a break from the superhero routine and finally confessing to MJ his feelings, but his plan is cracking at the seams. Two elementals are approaching Europe at once: water and fire. And then the classic superhero action begins.
- The first thing I liked was computer graphics. She's just incredibly high-level. All these illusions Mysterio made so realistic, it seems that there is nowhere better. But it was also thought after the release of the first Toy Stories, but now that animation seems plastic and primitive. Perhaps the same can be said about the graphics in the movie "Spider-Man:" Far from home in ten years. And I’m pleased that this technology is advancing so fast, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a film made entirely without the participation of real actors.
- I also found some references to pop culture funny. It even plays the AC/DC song from Iron Man, but Peter confused them with Led Zeppelin. Immediately to the disadvantages of these references can be attributed too stereotypical characters: clumsy fat man, stupid blonde, narcissistic major and part-time Instagram blogger (kkombo), well, and the eccentric teacher is also there.
- The performance of the main actors is also at a good level. Tom Holland once again coped with the role of a shy schoolboy and part-time superhero. Jake Gyllenhaal is a great fit to play one of the most charismatic characters, Mysterio, and I think it’s a great debut in the Marvel Universe. Well, the actors who played classmates because of some stereotyped characters, seemed unnatural and cardboard.
The obvious disadvantage is the immortality of the main characters. Game of Thrones became famous thanks to unexpected twists and turns. Kill the main character of the first season? - Easy! That doesn’t happen in the Marvel universe, except for the death of Tony Stark in the last Avengers. That is why it is not possible to truly empathize with the characters, because they get out of any trouble.
In summary, we can say that Spider-Man: Away from home is great if you just want to watch an entertaining movie and popcorn, two hours will pass unnoticed.

Once again, Iron Man is trying to destroy humanity. Even though he is already dead, his business lives on and they even from the other world he tries to do their black deeds.
Who is the real villain of the Marvel Universe? Is it really the village fool Thanos, who the Avengers group slapped twice in a movie? Of course not.
The Spider-Man movie finally revealed the dark side of the Struck family. If at first they completely openly and on full state support developed and produced weapons for the mass extermination of mankind, then after the old was fixed by agents of bloody hell, and the young almost finished off their own missiles, Stark Jr. went crazy, and he decided to stop mass extermination of people, but his black essence did not let him do it.
Especially to stop the dark desires of Stark, a team of Avengers was created, where they gathered all the same members, but with various mental disorders. That is, the mass extermination of people continued, but by the forces of the whole team. If the process of delucification of the Earth stopped, then Stark developed another Uber machine - then the costumes of Iron Man, then Ultron, then just began to anger the Hulk, and millions of innocent citizens of planet Earth died in the battles for world peace.
In the end, the gray cardinal and the main villain of the Marvel universe still scraped when he undertook to solve cases on the size and the glove of infinity, assembled by him without any neutron stars from a flashlight and two aluminum spoons, still finished him off. I am sure that it was the highest justice of the higher forces, because the LC for a long time and very successfully pretended to be good.
But as I said, even after he dies, he tries to kill humanity. To do this, he gave the keys to his nanobots to another fool from Marvel - Spider-Man. The result is quite predictable - another thrash and frenzy, the destruction of historical values throughout Europe, the death of hundreds and thousands of people, and another heroic victory over the next brainchild of the Starks.
Was it the last one? I'm sure not. The evil genius of mankind has prepared many more surprises for mankind.
It's a so-so movie. Teenage soap drama by 70% and blockbuster by 30%.
But, for the disclosure of the true essence of the LHC
I’m not a fan of superhero movies or fiction in general. The only thing I watched was 'Venom' and the penultimate 'Avengers'. After 23 minutes of advertising, I had a colossal spoiler for the finale of the previously mentioned film. @!&!@& Why do that? But let's keep looking.
Before us is a ridiculous schoolboy in a suit of spiderman, who can not connect two words and suffers from spermotoxicosis (crossed out) love for Mary Jane, and after all, we also need to save the world. The first hour I had a strong feeling that this is some kind of parody in the style of teenage comedy - awkward attempts to talk with the object of lust, stupid situations in the style of ' You got it all wrong!', a handsome rival, who, of course, is more lucky with the attention of MJ because of the awkward teacher-accompanying, as well as a friend from the movement ' Tian is not needed ' who, of course, immediately forgets about it and becomes ' Lapussy' Caricature-classmate' Caricature-older. Screenwriters do not even disdain jokes based on falling and hitting something. All this farce is a little diluted with all sorts of evil creatures and protectors from them. After many 'I don't want to, I won't' the world is saved, Mary Jane is in love, the film is made, the money is received.
Peter Parker
A typical high school senior from American movies who would hold hands with MJ in Paris, and then some guys are demanding to save the world. All the jokes of the film are based on his shyness and clumsiness. The main tragedy for him is that he was not put next to his beloved girl on the plane, and his spider instinct is called a chuika. After 70 minutes of screen time, he finally remembers that he is actually a spiderman, and begins to show at least something of himself, although not without beautiful dialogue.
*The name of the villain * Give me the object that gives him power * *
Did the boy become a man in the final? No.
Mary Jane.
I know we’re living in an era of total political correctness (Black Ariel and all), but it’s never Mary Jane! Before us is a dark girl of androgynous appearance, who is clearly with all her hands for the destruction of all mankind - so depressing and apathetic she looks. By the absurdity of her behavior next to Peter, she even surpasses him. There is a feeling that the casting director confused the casting in some 'Class musical' and in this film.
Mysterio
Even Yullenhaal (yes, that’s what his last name sounds like) couldn’t pull this movie out because of the negligible amount of screen time – in total, we see it for a maximum of 8 minutes. His entire story is compressed to rewind in a few seconds frames. I won’t spoil it, but there was also a set of cliches.
Aunt May
Again, the casting director deserves obscene mention. In the first minutes of the film, I couldn’t figure out what kind of sultry Italian woman was running around Peter’s house until I was told it was Aunt May. Have you ever seen Aunt May? It's an old lady! There are no complaints about the actress herself - she is amazing, but sexuality is not going anywhere.
Result
I strongly advise against this film, who remembers old cartoons about Spiderman and at least somehow sympathizes with this character - you will be severely disappointed. After the first hour of teenage suffering due to the fact that next to MJ, a beautiful boy, who also photographed him with his pants down next to a woman, and his best friend became ' paws', about a third of the hall was empty. The departed did not lose anything - in the dry remnant, the plot consists of the fact that schoolchildren moved to Europe, not the most popular guy (Peter) tolerates hamstrings from a rich non-blogger (who, of course, constantly reminds that he is rich), on his way to the heart of girls there are difficulties, but still they have love-carrots. Ah! A little more monsters. If you have always dreamed of seeing Agent Cody Banks with superpowers, then you can watch this creation.

You can be a spineless nunny, but everyone will give you equal
I was looking forward to this movie because I love Stan Lee. There were, of course, Marvel and failed movies, to hide. Spider-Man performed by Tom Holland came out quite well, but as always there is one ' but'
While watching the film, I began to question the adequacy of the new Spider-Man. If you remember the very first films with Tobey Maguire back in my childhood, Peter Parker in the very first films was a real hero. A simple schoolboy who is humiliated by everyone who can, gets super-powers and begins to enjoy it. But the hero realized that with great power comes great responsibility. But the student was not afraid to face evil. He was trying to lead a double life, and it’s not easy for superheroes to hide their second identity.
The new Spider-Man with Andrew Garfield also pleased me, as the character of the hero has not changed. He is still a high school student, loves science and technology, is in love and is trying to lead a double life.
But here comes another new Spider-Man. The hero appears before us in the form of a snotty and indecisive schoolboy who promises himself not to wash his hand after touching MJ; he receives super-powers, and is responsible for the fate of mankind, when people most need him, he is not going, excused by the fact that he is a 16-year-old child who did not want such a life at all. It would seem that you have motivation, you are an avenger, Tony Stark believed in you and before his terrible death managed to give you a bunch of modern and perfect costumes to fight evil. And then it turns out that the little boy does not need it. In the end, he takes responsibility for others. Never before has he behaved more disgustingly than 16-year-old Peter Parker, who can't even tell AC/DC from Led Zepelin. The director simply destroyed the image of Spider-Man. If Stan Lee had seen this, he would have rolled over in his grave. That's what I want to say ' sorry, Stan, we screwed up'.
Secondary heroes and worse. MJ was presented as a gloomy girl with no sense of humor, with bad taste in clothes, with huge bags under her eyes, as if she had started drinking alcohol even before she met Peter Parker. Parker's classmates are stupid and goofy who would lie that they're 21 just to be sold vodka. Teachers are spineless, careless, believe in witches and the Inquisition, can not follow the students and devoid of a sense of humor.
Those who worked on the film’s graphics really tried. The special effects are wonderful. The plot is not bad, but with huge holes. It killed me that all the work was done by Mysterio, whose story was not revealed to us. Spider-Man, this little spineless boy, just stood by and beat all his available body parts against the surface of the earth and buildings.
Conclusion: The film disappointed me. The new Peter Parker is no longer a real man; he is a little boy among skyscrapers who dreams of having sex with a struggling girl. The very first Peter Parker always acted decisively, even towards MJ; never complexed and always went forward, even if life put him on the bandwagon. And this film is not about a superhero, but about a boy who has lost his mentor and disbanded his nuns.
The new Spider-Man movie by Tom Holland is in the movies. This is a solo film about a superhero, and another farewell to those who did not survive the epic “Endgame”, and in general – the epilogue of the Infinity Saga. True, I was still waiting for the announcement of the next phase, but did without it, leaving only a small hint of what will happen next.
So, Peter Parker goes on vacation to Europe, dreaming of spending time on a normal life and confessing his love to MJ, but then Nick Fury, Mysterio and the monster elements appear. You have to put on the Night Monkey costume and save the world again.
The filmmakers do not forget why this incarnation of Spider is so successful. Not just because of the Avengers membership, but because of that comic mood. In the movie universe, Peter Parker is really a schoolboy who retains enthusiasm and a sense of humor. The overall atmosphere is very close to Parker-Holland’s previous solo album, Homecoming, so there’s a lot to navigate when deciding whether to go to the movies. Personally, for me, the answer is quite unambiguous - a great movie for the big screen, albeit not perfect.
Far From Home unambiguously releases the new Tony Stark from Spider-Man. On the one hand, it's very logical. Stark has always been the center of the movie universe, because it began in the years when the rights to Marvel characters were spread across the studios. And Marvel comics have always been associated primarily with Spider-Man, so it’s natural to put him in Stark’s place in future movies. On the other hand, the rights to Spider remain with Sony and studios have to spend many hours negotiating in order to keep the character in the MCU. And the recent box office success of the useless Venom only made the situation worse.
The authors of the new “Spider-Man” interestingly deal with the comic canon – in some places they zealously follow it, inserting all new canonical elements into the hero’s costume. In others, they openly ridicule him. I will do without serious spoilers, I will describe only as one of the heroes, rereading the versions about the nature of the water elemental, voices the description of the comic villain Hydroman, on which the rest suggest he less believe any nonsense.
By and large, Spider-Man: Far From Home belongs to the category of MCU films that I don’t like – it’s a local story that doesn’t add anything new to the general mythology. Such were, for example, “Avengers: Age of Ultron” or “First Avenger: Confrontation”. But the spider solo is surprisingly deftly assembled from many components - there is a teenage comedy, and a signature action attraction, and a little more understanding of "Endgame", and a lot of everything, in general, if without spoilers. Watch a good movie at the cinema.
And don't forget the post-credits scenes. They weren’t in the “Endgame,” but now they’re back. Moreover, if before they were always a kind of bonuses, then here they are rather an integral part of the film.

Only he remained to be torn apart by the villain - a simple and young Spider-Man.
Thor is unavailable, Dr. Strange is unavailable, Captain Marvel is best not asked. A friendly neighbor, Spider-Man, remains.
It is Peter Parker, away from home, who will have to entertain the audience while adult heroes look for adventures on their “fifth points”. The spider does not seek to save humanity and does not make grand plans to protect the planet, he only wants to conquer one girl - MJ.
Model, singer and at the same time actress Zendaya together with a cohort of teenagers from Peter’s class turns the tape into an easy comedy movie. The heroic pathos in the dialogues was replaced by the mimish communication of “Zaya” Ned and “Lapuli” Betty. A tough confrontation takes place between a handsome rival and Peter, of course, not without the help of high technology. And all this happens not in the fantastic entourage of other planets, but in the locations of romantic Venice, prim London and pedantic Berlin.
Marvel brought to the fore the theme of the growing up of the hero, who will stand on a par with the departed personas. “Unobtrusively” recalling Iron Man, the authors did not complicate the 16-year-old’s path to the Avengers Olympus. Peter has enough faith in his destiny, as Tony Stark believed in him. A simple plot is embodied in a solution without tragedy and severe tests.
This applies to all elements of the picture from teenage humor to a frivolous villain. The latter’s ambitions are at the level of the Power Rangers. And the film does not lose anything from such components, but only gains - the prankster Samuel L. Jackson, the eternally sad and slick Jake Gyllenhaal. Mysterio with an aquarium on his head and the prefix Dandy on his sleeve further emphasizes the comic tape. As a nice addition, we get a funny Happy and a loving Aunt May.
Two hours pass unnoticed without the desire to find fault with the little things. I want to note the test scene in which Peter with a door-shield from the car unwinds explosives. Referring to the images of Captain America and Thor hint that we have a superhero - a member of the team ... although no - all the same Spider in a funny performance of Tom Holland.
Thor and the brigade will definitely bring new threats to Earth, and until this happens, I recommend resting under an absolutely unstressed and funny ribbon.

So, after ' Endgame' from which the audience sobbed, hysterical, still devote poems to Tony Stark, we were shown the final film of 3 phases 'Spider-Man: far from home'. I really liked the movie! Light, carefree, sometimes serious, childish, plus chic posttiter scenes. From the beginning, there are references to the previous film. On the one hand it was touching, on the other it was funny. Spider-Man himself is once again faced with a choice between responsibility for the world and his teenage problems. Very well shown love experiences of a teenager, and in this respect, Tom Holland surpasses the previous spiders, because they more like adult uncles. Tom's spider is cute, naive, craves his superpowers, but at the same time makes tough decisions. Amusingly, the reference to the first HC. You can see how Tony Stark is missing in the Marvel Universe. As for the antagonist, Mysterio came as a surprise to some extent. Before the movie came out, everyone knew who it was. But his illusions were so realistic that viewers expected a similar twist, but from a visual point of view it was a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, I would like to know more about Mysterio, too little was told about the character.
Peter Parker thinks more and does more. In the last film, he rushed into battle regardless of the situation, but now he realizes that he does not have enough experience. In fact, I was surprised that Nick Fury put so much pressure on him (although the post-credits scene 2 makes a lot clearer).
So, ' Far From Home' is an easy completion of Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, hopefully the sequel will be no worse.

“The greater the power, the greater the responsibility.”
Spider-Man is my childhood favorite. Movies with this character cause a sense of nostalgia for the bright times, which is why I unconsciously do not want to notice their disadvantages. But, within the framework of this review, I will try to highlight both the strengths and weaknesses of “Away from home”
Pluses:
The plot does not shine with high-quality twists, but contains many references and well-written dialogues with the absence of pathos. It develops the cinematic and personal story of Peter Parker, who finished his journey as a great hero. The ease and dynamism of the narrative is achieved due to good jokes, high-quality combat scenes and chic special effects, which, in my opinion, are on par with the special effects in Doctor Strange. In addition, I would like to highlight secondary characters, each of which adds humor to the picture, and Mysterio, which is the decoration of the film because of the battle scenes with his participation.
Minuses:
The picture has a weak soundtrack, except for one composition, which serves as a reference and sounds for a short time. Secondary characters, although good, but take a significant part of the narrative, which, in some places, creates a feeling of “teleportation” of the characters from one location to another and reveals a clear lack of timekeeping for the main storyline. Also, the disadvantages include, classic for films about superheroes, the “invulnerability” of the character, because of which you can not really empathize with the main character in combat scenes.
Result:
The new film about Spider-Man turned out to be really interesting, with good humor, a good plot and a chic visual. Scenes after the credits leave a number of questions and cause a desire to quickly watch the next part of the adventures of your favorite hero, which creates a pleasant aftertaste. You will not regret watching this movie.
When Marvel executives handed over the film rights to the story of their most popular Spider-Man character to Sony Pictures, it looked definitely the right decision, because at the turn of the century Stan Lee’s company did not have the opportunity to make its own full-fledged blockbuster that could please demanding fans. In addition, Marvel’s financial woes were so palpable that the publisher needed all options to avoid bankruptcy, and part of the deal with Sony helped avoid disaster. And appeared in 2002 on the screens of Sam Raimi’s film “Spider-Man” in an instant excited the public, making the young Peter Parker in the guise of Tobey Maguire an icon of a truly global scale. Viewers and critics forgave Raimi all the sins of which the tape was full, and in a couple of years the on-screen story of Spider-Man turned into a trilogy, followed by a good, but very coolly accepted restart with Andrew Garfield. By the time of the release of the reimagined films, Marvel had already managed to get out of the debt hole, organized their own studio, migrated to the bosom of Disney and were no longer going to say goodbye to the characters of the publishing house, determined to use them independently. Moreover, Marvel even managed to return some of the previously borrowed heroes without much legal problems, since after Iron Man and especially the Avengers, everyone understood that no one could cope with their own artistic creations better than the parent company led by Kevin Feige. Nevertheless, Sony was in no hurry to say goodbye to Spider-Man even after the relative failure with the “New Spider-Man”, but the producers of the two studios managed to conclude a mutually beneficial deal, as a result of which Peter Parker partially returned home, but the rights to him mostly belonged to Marvel companions.
Rejecting the idea for the third time in a row to show the audience what happened in the bowels of the Oscorp Corporation, as well as the canonical but annoying death of Uncle Ben, Kevin Feige first sent Peter Parker, whose role was tried on by Tom Holland, straight to Berlin to help Tony Stark, who entered into an ideological battle with Steve Rogers. And the first acquaintance with Holland in the image of Spider-Man pleased not only the audience, but also critics, after which the process of filming Homecoming, a solo film about Parker, which was faced with a special case that should be resolved without the participation of the Avengers team, began in full swing. Of course, the film directed by John Watts was not as bright as the efforts of Raimi, it was a lot of unnecessary, standard for an ordinary blockbuster episodes, but Holland’s charisma, as well as a successful appearance in the villainous part of Michael Keaton, allowed “Homecoming” to become a box office winner and lead producers to thoughts about the sequel. And who would have thought that the release of “Far From Home” will be perhaps the most anticipated event for all Marvel fans, despite the fact that Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is already firmly entrenched on the screen and has become familiar. The thing is that the sequel became essentially a guide to the world after the infamous Click of Thanos and the heroic act of Tony Stark, who managed to return life to its former course. It is Far From Home that shows us what happened to the planet and the existing reality.
The film revolves around the school trip of Peter Parker (Holland) and his schoolmates to Europe during the summer holidays. Having managed to recover from the realization that after the first click of Thanos it took five years, our hero is not going to focus all his attention on experiences alone, but tries to live on and put his long-suffering personal life on his feet. And where, if not while traveling to such luxurious cities as Venice, Prague or London, do not try to finally take and build a romantic relationship MJ (Zendai), which previously Peter was not very interested, but in view of various events, ranging from the confrontation with the Hawk and participation in the final battle with Thanos five years after spraying, he still considered in an eccentric classmate the object of his true interest. But despite what Parker has in mind, the world is not going to leave him alone and continues to shower trouble. And now on the queue is the task of Nick Fury (Jackson), who lost the support of the disbanded “Avengers” and insecure “S.H.I.T.”, and therefore he cannot do without special help. The click of Thanos and the events that followed it seem to have made a hole between the universes, and suddenly in our world there were giant monsters of the Elementals, controlling the key natural forces. To stop the disaster in all possible ways, along with Fury, someone tries and Quentin Beck, or Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal), but without Parker’s help, the guys kind of can not do. And now the hero needs to carefully build his schedule, because he has no right to summon his heart, reaching for MJ, or Fury, who continues an uneven struggle with the opponents of everything on Earth.
Of course, you should not count on the second solo film about Peter Parker beyond the life drama and weeping for lost during the “Endgame” heroes. At the same time, the film was supposed to give us at least a superficial tour and show what happened to the world after the greatest battle in history ended. Director John Watts sketched out for us the key elements and concepts of what is actually happening to society and with a touch of humor explained how sometimes it is difficult for people to realize that their long-dead relatives and acquaintances suddenly reappear on the planet. But instead of introducing the story into excessive meticulousness, Watts immediately jumps to the most important and gives us an easy teenage film with a lot of cute adventures, pranks and humor. With all the abundance of special effects, which gives the director a very large production budget, "Spider-Man" is issued partly local, friendly, warm, cozy and even predictable film, whose action, albeit jumps around the world, but when viewing the globality of the situation is completely not perceived. And all because the story revolves primarily not around the Elementals and their capabilities, and around Parker, who finally learned to appreciate life and his responsibility to loved ones, and friends and completely strangers, who sometimes need special help. And this approach of the director can be called completely correct, because after the Avengers, viewers and even the Cinema Universe should take a short breath to look around and bring raging thoughts in order.
And since this film is not about graphics and extreme action, Jake Gyllenhaal rightfully found his place here, who had something to play under the guidance of Watts and thereby create a magnificent hoax for us, which became one of the most important decorations of the film. So if you love Marvel movies, don’t give up on this adventure.
Great power, great responsibility. The myth of Spider-Man cannot do without it. And fortunately, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we're being told something new instead of telling old stories.
The events of the film died out 'Avengers: Endgame', echoes of which sound in the film ' Spider-Man: Far From Home & #39;
Peter Parker and his classmates go on a tour of Europe to enjoy the beauty of the capital’s buildings. But, according to all genre conventions, formidable elementals appear from the ground, destroying centuries-old buildings. And Nick Fury does not sleep and dreams of recruiting Parker, tired of battles.
John Watts still tells a very teenage and light story where the global threat still feels like a ridiculous game. And that's great. Peter Parker tries to balance the life of a superhero and his feelings for MJ.
But the brightest spot of the whole picture is Jake Gyllenhall as Mysterio. This is one of the most charismatic enemies of Spider-Man and the actor just perfectly fits into the image of such a theater with a megalomaniac obsessed with creating illusions.
All scenes with Gyllenhall sharply overshadow the history of the Eurotour, and the personal drama of Peter Parker.
'Spider-Man: Far From Home 39 is the final chord in the most climactic phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A very easy and pleasant movie about Europe, illusions, love and spider flair.
Rarely does this happen when after watching and say nothing, because there is nothing that could be discussed, without violating the rules of Cinema Search, as well as the feelings of fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, whose audience in Russia is very large. 'Spider-Man: Away from home' an example of how to mess up a chic trilogy, in this case a trilogy featuring Tobey Maguire. Let’s start with a detailed analysis.
We will evaluate the film by such criteria as the plot, acting, soundtrack and the component of the action movie.
Plot: We are talking about the USA from another universe where Tony Stark, the idol of millions of children and Marvel fans, died. His successor, Peter Parker, tries to take on the role of a superhero and understand the meaning of his life. The plot is simply no, it is almost impossible to say about it without spoilers. Monsters came, new ' The Avengers' they were destroyed, then it turned out that not everything was so simple and the world was saved from collapse by Peter Parker, that's the whole plot. Also not to say that there are many storylines, besides, not to say that they are all perfectly worked out. Peter and M.J.'s relationship story is horrific. The Mysterio storyline is also terrible, but at least there’s some backstory and thank you. In the first 10 seconds, after a deeper acquaintance with the new hero, you are really in some surprise from such an unusual plot twist, here the authors tried to ask no questions. There are no more storylines. Those 2 hours go by like 30 minutes. As for the plot jokes and humor, I laughed once after Spider-Man and Lada 2107, it was a bit unusual to see seven in a Marvel movie. The film did not cause a smile, the humor was flat, not witty and very simple. Also, there’s no character disclosure that’s inherent in Marvel, it’s just a mass-produced product, nothing more. If the previous trilogy about the well-known Spider-Man had an atmosphere, was quite serious, very addictive and caused affection for the main character, then the last Spider-Man simply became a children's film, with a flat and small plot, bad humor and all the absurdity of what is happening.
Acting: As for the names themselves, very little known, namely the legendary Samuel L. Jackson, who played the role of Nick Fury. And the other one is Jake Gyllenhaal, who played Mysterio. Someone will say that Tom Holland is a famous actor. He is known in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, except for their films, he did not star in anything popular and successful, so it is impossible to call him a famous actor. They played all their roles well, there were no shortcomings, sloppiness, the actors played generally well, but the images were not revealed to everyone. I'm not familiar with Spider-Man comics, so I can't say which MJ is more canon-like. But I feel like I'm closer to MJ from Sam Raimi's trilogy. Aesthetically, this MJ is much better, but sensually and internally Sam Raimi's MJ is 10 steps ahead. Namely, the inner world reveals the hero, not the outer, so the image of MJ Zendaya is absolutely not disclosed, which is why no attachment to her character appeared. There was also no attachment to Tom Holland’s Peter Parker, who wanted to get his head under his head for the whole film, so that he could pick up his hands and even remotely look like Spider-Man Tobey Maguire. You can not bypass and Mysterio Jake Gyllenhaal, here I have no one to compare him with, since I am not familiar with this comic of the universe, but personal feelings he played his role poorly. There is confusion on the part of the writers, as the actor himself played well, but acquaintance with his hero was like the following: - Hello? - Let's be friends. Come on. It is better not to describe this acquaintance. There is no development of the character, everything happens in some kind of confusion, as if time is running out and we need to finish the film as soon as possible. The hero is just a dummy for whom you have neither pity nor hatred. If there was no attachment to the main characters, then to the secondary ones. It’s also a bad idea.
Soundtrack: The music accompaniment was good, but it didn’t really affect the viewing. This is the first good criterion for this film. Music is one of those parameters that did not let you fall asleep while watching, but 3D glasses are uncomfortable to sleep with. The music wasn’t memorable, even though there were well-known songs like AC/DC, but I’m not a rock fan, so it didn’t really impress me, but again, that doesn’t beg for that criterion. Marvel has learned to make more or less good musical accompaniment, which is certainly pleasing.
Action: Since the film is an action movie, it is impossible to pass by this criterion. The component of the militant was made powerfully and qualitatively. You could say it was a lot, it was very realistic. Hence the conclusion that these 2 hours were collected only due to special effects, since the film is almost entirely composed of them. The combat system was so typical of a superhero movie, nothing impressive, just beautiful from the outside. Purely visual, in other words. The shootings were also beautiful, no complaints. The devastation was just fantastic, there were so many that they were remembered more than the storyline itself. This is definitely a good idea.
Thus, 'Spider-Man: Away from Home #39 is a medium-quality film with a mediocre script that has only one component, which is done at a high level, but there is nothing in the film except it. This is a real action movie, since everything looks gorgeous from the outside, but at the same time, there is no plot, no development of the heroes, which is why they are essentially empty. The film is based on the plot ' Avengers: Endgame', he himself does not present anything new in the cinematic universe. The film is a real empty place, where we were just introduced to a new hero in the person of Mysterio, with whom we may meet in the future, although there is little faith in it. If that were the case, maybe Marvel would be better off revealing his image and his story. At the end of the day, it felt like 'Spider-Man: Away from home' is just such a springboard for subsequent films with his participation, as is 'Captain Marvel' the more they both turned out equally terrible. Which, of course, does not paint this film company, since the viewer when going to the movies expects to see a action-packed and addictive film, and not some springboard for subsequent parts. I do not recommend to the ordinary viewer, for a Marvel fan and in general a fan of superhero movie universes, it is worth watching, it will not be superfluous. And so the scene after the credits was the most interesting film, somehow.

Mysterio or manual on how not to reveal the character
I'll start from afar. Back in 2009, when cartoons with Spider-Man and the sinister six were on TV, as well as magazines with cards on him. I bought everything I could afford. Who would have thought that the main twist of the film, will be written at the bottom on the card aka character biography ' Mysterio' By the way, Mysterio is the main star of the film, and partly because of him I went to the film.
All right. Character undisclosed. No way. He told a story that only slightly motivates his actions. Look at the same thanos, which is just gorgeous. We know everything about him! (Nothing new about this movie, though.) That’s why watching him and following him was so interesting. In Mysterio, only the name of the actor catches. And he occasionally sat down... All his genius is told by the ragged narrative of the character... The authors had to shoot 2-3 scenes, with his detailed story, to goosebumps. And in the end, it's kind of empty. But with an important thought that everyone should think about.
In general, the story of the film is more than interesting, the graphics are simply great. We're sweaty this time. Everyone is playing at the right level. The downside is humor. Not funny. He's in every scene. Humor is bad and would be better without it. There's a lot to think about after the movie. It's important and good that you take something out of a blockbuster. In general, for a good picture, for a great story, for good actors, but for an unsuccessful Mysterio, for a bad and generally unnecessary humor. . .
