*spoilers*
So... This was...??? Okay? I guess. I'm a bit disappointed. I mean, I'll still continue to look forward to future sequels, but this was sort of a letdown for me. The ending with Parker's identity being revealed at least sets the next film to be better than this one--hopefully. I'm not in a hurry to buy this one. I won't say I'll *never* buy it or anything, but only if it's like $5 during Black Friday or something. Everything felt sort of inconsequential and there weren't enough adorkable moments with Holland to make up for it. I suppose the best scene is when Peter is going to try to tell Fury about Beck / Mysterio, only for it all to be an illusion. That whole scene, ending with him hit by the train, was really well-done. The stuff with his friend falling in love with the morning news girl in the background was probably the funniest part. Zendaya was... Alright. I'm not feeling the romance so far though. Maybe it'll get better in the next film. I haven't watched
Homecoming in a while, and I haven't seen
Avengers: Endgame yet unfortunately (I know the plot gist of that film), but Peter already being interested in her felt like a sudden jump.
I don't know how the crossover situation works with Disney having eaten FOX, but could Deadpool appear in a future Spider-Man film? I'd love to see the characters interacting onscreen, at least once this version's Spider-Man is out of highschool age.

Yeah, I don't pretend
Homecoming was this amazing film and FFH was awful or anything. They were about equal, it was more the little moments and humor that I found better in / the highlight of the first and lacking in the second. The end credits scene was really good, has me hyped for the next sequel.

Excited to see where Marvel plans to go now. Btw! having Whitney Houston’s voice open the movie was amazing!! You can never have enough of that voice!!
I can't agree enough! "I Have Nothing" is her best, but her vocal on "I Will Always Love You" is gorgeous, too, what a nice surprise at the beginning.
