More laughs with this classic comic strip. There's a reason it's a family favorite.

Not too much dwelling on back story
As with the other series on Netflix (more notably Jesse Jones), I felt this series was a little dragged out to the agreed 13 episodes.
The story is good with Luke playing the underdog well, and the different setting of Harlem worked well.
My favourite moment was in the flashback after Luke escaped from Seagate prison and ended up dressed like the 70s comic equivalent for a brief moment

Vulture could have been better (1 more)
Plot of 2nd half pretty stock
Great, comic faithful version of spiderman.
Really enjoyed watching this wise cracking version of spiderman leaping around in an even more comic faithful version than Sam Rami's version. If you liked Spidey's guest appearance in Civil War then you'll like this. Definitely appeals to a younger audience but older comic fans like myself will enjoy watching our childhood heroes come to life. On the downside I did find the Vulture to be a little dull as villains go and the second half of the film was perhaps a little formulaic, with a contrived plot twist, but I still enjoyed the film as a whole. Recommended - if you like super hero films, obviously.
