One of the most awaited Marvel movies in recent times premiered on Monday and critics already cannot get enough of the recent marvel wonder. The last movie from the Spider Man solo series, Spider Man: No way home, has left a lasting impression on its first viewers.
Tom Holland starrer first film of the Spidey trilogy movie is all set to release worldwide on December 17. The Jon Watts directed film has garnered appreciation from the critics of different publication. So, before you head off to the theatre, let’s take a look at what experts say.
Kate Erbland from IndieWire expressed “worth it” after watching the movie, she said, “The Marvel Cinematic Universe is not always willing to get really risky — particularly in standalone features that will undoubtedly impact the rest of the slate — but No Way Home isn’t scared of throwing down an entirely new gauntlet, with a truly reverential eye to the past, and hoping for a new future worth fighting for. The road to the closing moments of No Way Home — both warm-hearted and heartbreaking — might have hit a few bumps, but the darkness is worth it.”
Mae Abdulbaki of Screen Rant called the movie “incredibly fun” to watch and stated, “Thanks to Peter finally taking matters into his own hands, No Way Home is able to fly higher than any of the previous Spider-Man entries in the MCU. The film ponders what kind of hero Spider-Man is and who he aspires to be — is he someone who takes ownership over his choices? Does he help people who are in need or does he leave them behind? These questions play heavily into his storyline, adding gravitas to his journey as a hero who is trying to forge a path for himself. No Way Home feels more like a Spider-Man movie. It’s a bit corny yet endearing, heartfelt and incredibly fun — which is as it should be.”
John Defore from The Hollywood Reporter said, “Some of the fan service plays fairly well here; some is unsubtle enough you expect an actor to look into the camera and wink at you after delivering his line. But in the end, No Way Home does use its multiversal mayhem to address the only real problem with the Holland-era webslinger: the Iron Man-ification of the character, in which his already amazing powers keep getting overshadowed by the gadgets given to him by billionaire jerk-hero Tony Stark. This is the least fun of the Watts/Holland pictures by a wide margin (intentionally so, to some extent), but it’s a hell of a lot better than the last Spidey threequel, Sam Raimi’s overstuffed and ill-conceived Spider-Man 3.”
Pete Hammond from Deadline called the movie, “one of the year’s best movies” and stated, “Jon Watts once again weaves his own magic on the series and creates, with the help of screenwriters Chris McKenna and Erik Summers, not just the best pic yet in the Spider-Man series, but truly one of the year’s best movies.”
Amelia Emberwing of IGN praised the movie for “hitting the right notes” and continued, “Spider-Man: No Way Home hits all the right notes as the MCU’s latest entry. Its impact on the universe as a whole, as well as the overall emotional beats, all feel earned. Stellar performances meet what feels like a Saturday morning cartoon rife with all the devastating punches we’ve come to expect from this sneaky universe. Though it struggles with some tired superhero tropes, everything else about it will leave fans grinning ear-to-ear.”
The highly anticipated film features Tom Holland along with Benedict Cumberbatch and Zendaya in the roles of Spider Man, Doctor Strange and MJ.
