Spider Man : No way Home - Movie Review

Spider Man : No way Home - Movie Review

spider-man no way home is directed by John watts rounding out his i guess home trilogy if you want to call it something and this film stars tom holland once again as spider-man and in this film spider-man's identity is now revealed and peter asks Dr strange for help but when the spell goes wrong dangerous foes from other worlds start to appear forcing peter to discover what it truly means to be spider-man 

spider-man no way home so look  I can't talk about this film there's nothing i can say i guess i'll leave now this is going to be a spoiler-free Blog i will be doing a spoiler review as well because there's a lot of things i would like to discuss that i will not be discussing right now i guess i have to establish what i consider a spoiler if it's in the trailer already i'm going to talk about it there are villains already revealed in the trailer and i'm going to speak about them so if you somehow avoided all the trailers and for some reason are reading this review even though you know i show trailer footage i guess that's your warning i'm just being super careful on this this movie is easily the best of the home trilogy for me i haven't been a massive fan of these movies i've enjoyed homecoming and far from home i rewatched both of them yesterday leading up to this film and i still enjoy them but they're by no means my favorite spider-man movies and this one this one will be re-watched by me more than a few times for sure i had a great time with it there's some inconsistencies and some issues that i have a little bit that i'll discuss in brief detail but for the most part i think spider-man fans are going to have a really good time with this movie and especially if you loved homecoming and far from home and you're just like totally wrapped up in mj and peter and their relationship and all that if that's like your thing like you're gonna you're just gonna have a great time with this movie um i also had a great time with this movie but because it felt darker than the other two this without a doubt is the closest we've ever gotten  to actually having spider-man in the mcu like tom holland is really good in this movie and he has put through a lot of dark stuff and he has to deal with a lot of things that he's never had to deal with before that force him to become spider-man like he's not spider-teen he's not spider-boy in this movie he gets put through the ringer which is what peter parker has always been to me and it was wonderful to see we know from the last film that jk simmons is back as jay jonah jameson and he's in the film considerably i was very happy to see that but Alfred Molina as you know

returns as doc ock which i never

honestly thought i'd see a world where i

saw him on the screen again Willem Dafoe

is back as green goblin again not

something i ever expected to see Wamie

Foxx back as electro

this is insane like the fact that 

these people

are in this movie is just

it's insane i struggled to

comprehend what i was looking at

sometimes because i just never thought i

would see that one of my biggest

concerns though going in was that they

were going to show up        


and say like a line

and then go away like i was afraid

norman was gonna show up jump on his

glider go godspeed spider-man and then

blow up

that's not the case at all thank god

they are in the movie for a considerable

amount of run time and they have a lot

to do and they're not just there to be

call backs they all have

a plight they all have something that

they would like to

obtain they all have reasons for wanting

it

and it makes sense and when it comes to


spider-man's interaction with these

three characters this is a broad term

but it was very good i don't mean like

quality i just mean like heartwarming

and special and it

happened the way it should happen for

spider-man like spider-man's choices

made sense for the character and i just

really liked what they did and Willem

Dafoe is really good in this movie like          


really really good i

loved hearing his voice and seeing his

face contort into the green goblin i

don't know man he was good

i loved him so much and it was just

wonderful to see him like in the movie

not just in a few shots the real heart

and soul of the movie though lies in the

relationship between Tom Hall and

Spider-man and Zendaya's mj and

they work extremely well together their

chemistry is off the charts but also the           


story is just really sweet and i liked

everything they did with those

characters as well as Dr strange

Benedict Cumberbatch gets some really

cool moments in this movie there's an

amazing sequence which you have seen in

the trailers and i won't talk about like

what's going on but there's like a train

and clearly doctor strange is doing some

 up magic and that sequence was

amazing one of the best things that John

watts has done in this trilogy i think

my biggest issue with the movie is one        


of editing and one of filmmaking john

watts to me

is a good filmmaker but i have never

been blown away by his visual take on

spider-man it all feels like it fits

into the mcu very well but i never

really felt a lot of personality coming

through in his directing style most of

that was usually due to the characters

and the actors inhabiting those

characters just really giving a lot to

these movies and there are some choices

in the film especially editing wise that

i didn't understand the first time we               


really see Willem dafoe as green goblin

without the mask on it was handled very

strangely it just cut to his face there

was no

tilt up there was no push in it was just

a cut to his his face and i was like oh

it's like that didn't they didn't give

him like a really great reveal i mean

they give his suit a great reveal but

then it's like that's well

that's Willem dafoe bro like he was in

platoon man like show some goddamn

respect and give him a tilt at least                    


in regards to those editing choices they

also cut away from defoe a lot when he

would be just chewing up the scenery and

really going for it and it felt like

they were almost worried that he was

going for it too much and taking away

from the realism of the movie which i

just strongly disagree with because they

kept cutting away to things that were

less interesting than Willem dafoe

as green goblin

talking they were editing choices like

 that bugged me sometimes it did                  


feel like some of these villain

characters

were just sort of in their own little

box

and they were being filmed in their own

space and they weren't necessarily in

the same space as the other characters

and it was almost like they filmed some

of them separately and kind of stitched

them together with someone else off

camera reading the lines it just didn't

always feel like they were in the same

room with everyone it's a strange thing        


to describe maybe you just have to see

the film and understand what i mean but

that could also be because for these

three villain characters i read that

they originally didn't necessarily want

the public to know that doc ock, electro

and green goblin were in the movie and

maybe they just had to always film them

indoors because they were afraid of

 trying to leak so i don't

know but

that's really my main gripe with the

film is some of the editing choices

sometimes it felt like shots just

weren't as interesting or as uh dynamic         


 as they could have been but it's a very

small gripe amongst a two and a half

hour movie that i found consistently

entertaining tom holland is

wonderful as spider-man it's the best

he's ever been i've liked him since

homecoming and civil war but here he is

really good uh and i mean

phenomenal in this movie and it has an

amazing ending i love the ending of this

movie

i think it's extremely satisfactory and

i am seeing it again this weekend i

can't wait actually that's all i can say

right now there is so

much other stuff i want to talk about

but i can't

and  you'll just have to wait a few

more days guys 

Thank you so much
