The second of the two Andrew Garfield starring Spider-Man movies, this is also - by a fair margin - the worst of the now eight (3 Tobey Maguire, 2 Andrew Garfield, 3 Tom Holland) Spider-Man movies.
Rhino is wasted.
Electro - despite Jamie Foxx's best efforts - is forgettable.
Harry Osborne just comes across as a whiny spoilt brat.
Shocking ending, though, with what happens to Gwen (even if you were expecting it).

waste. of. time.
I cannot believe I sat through two and a half hours of nothingness. Of bad characters, bad plot, bad music. The best part about this film was the color that they used. They had such vibrant shades and beautiful sets - that's the only positive. DiCaprio is a great actor, I've loved him in most all his films. This one is just not it. I had no clue Tobey Maguire was in this film and I think he was just as bad. I thought Joel Edgerton was fine.
The movie is as pointless as the book, if not more so. Nothing happened for an hour and a half. It's a 200-page book and they made a 2 and a half hour movie. I don't understand. This film is so bad. SO boring. Not worth the time or energy to keep your eyes open.

Third time's a charm
Wasn't it Oscar Wilde who said that to cast one actor as Spider-Man is a sound artistic choice, but to cast three in only fifteen years is possibly taking the mickey? Hey ho. Marvel Studios bring all their usual skill to this latest addition to the series, and the result is as entertaining as you'd expect.
They do make quite a big deal out of the fact that Spider-Man is back in continuity with the Avengers (et al), much more so than happens in the other MCU films, but I suppose it's forgivable. The movie's two big innovations are to basically tell the story as a goofy 80s-style high school comedy, and to actually have a genuinely strong and memorable villain (Michael Keaton makes a real impression as another sort of birdman). Solid script; also very funny; doesn't quite supplant memories of the Sam Raimi-Tobey Maguire films, but stands comparison to them very well.

I liked Tobey Maguire as Spidey. I liked Andrew Garfield a bit more. I felt like he was more relatable. However, he has been dethroned. Tom Holland is PERFECT for the role of Spiderman. He brings a fun personality that you truly believe could be the web slinger and he does so with the humor that has been present in the comic books since the beginning of time.
The story picks up without too much explanation needed as to what's happened since we last saw our hero, so that's nice. As with all MCU movies today, the effects and visuals were top notch. The makers were able to offer a refreshing take on Mysterio and Jake Gyllenhaal played the part marvelously. There were some wild twists in the story and tons of easter eggs to be had. Overall a good time, Also, Zendaya plays a wonderful MJ. Much more realistic portrayal that we've been given in film before.
