Spider-Man: Far From Home is the second installment in the Homecoming trilogy. After the events of Endgame, Peter decides that it's time to go on a little vacation with his classmates to Europe for the summer. However, his plans for relaxation are put on hold when Nick Fury shows up in his hotel room to recruit him for a mission, as he needs help to destroy four massive elemental creatures causing chaos across the continent. He also joins forces with a newfound hero named Mysterio, who might be the key to putting a stop to these elemental attacks. Spider-Man: Far From Home is an entertaining and fun follow-up to the first film; that being said, this is definitely my least favorite of the trilogy, as thereare certain elements of the film that I personally don't care for. The first is that it's where I started to notice one of the biggest issues I have with the MCU: the cheap writer's trick of "it happened off-screen." If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I hate with a fiery passion the "it happened off-screen" trope because I believe it's an excuse for writers to skip over important things like plot, character, and character relationship development. A minor example of this is the development of Peter and MJ's relationship because, as someone who saw massive potential in their romance and was excited to see their relationship evolve, imagine my surprise when Peter already had feelings for her at the beginning of the movie. While we get the hint at the end of Homecoming that Michelle has a crush on Peter, he is not quite there yet. I don't know if they decided that they wanted the two to kiss at the end of the movie and felt that if they spent time developing the relationship, the kiss would be less impactful, but I promise them it would have been. It's just frustrating to see how the MCU will jump through hoops in certain projects to avoid developing the world and its characters, especially with the tools and resources they have literally at their fingertips. The next point is Peter's arc; this completely goes against his arc in the previous movie, where he learns that it's important to be his own hero. However, this film still forces him into the Iron Man Jr. role, which is confusing because the script will constantly say that he needs to be his own person and then, just a few minutes later, starts playing AC/DC and doing the Tony Stark movements with technology. It's like Marvel doesn't know whether they want him to become the next Iron Man or Spider-Man , and due to their constant indecisiveness about what they want him to be, it ends up leaving you with an unsatisfying arc. Other things that I didn't particularly care for in this film were that some of the humor didn 't really land for me, Mysterio as a villain beyond his visuals was fine, and while I love Tony Stark , the heavy reliance on him is a bit much for me, and the assassination of his character continues in this movie. And while I love Peter with my entire heart and believe that he is meant for great things in life, I still don't believe that he is ready for something like the EDITH glasses. Also, what was the reason for having Uncle Ben's suitcase if you decided that the character had no real significance to this particular version of the Spider-Man story? I'm just curious because they will continue to avoid that man like the plague. #spiderman #spidermanfarfromhome #tomholland #zendaya #jakegyllenhaal #samueljackson #jacobbatalon #marisatomei #jonfavreau #cobiesmulders #tonyrevolori #angourierice by @Mystic Cinema
