Review – Spider-Man: Homecoming

Freed from the vagaries of the studio rights ownership deals that kept the character out of the MCU, Spider-Man finally gets his own (semi-) stand-alone movie. I appreciated the decision to skip the pace-killing, all-too-familiar origin story and cut straight to the new battle between the teenage hero (Tom Holland) and the Vulture (Michael Keaton), who in this iteration holds the undignified position of being a supervillain who steals scrap metal. Mildly amusing
