Marvel’s take on “Spider-man: Homecoming” makes viewers fall in love with Peter Parker all over again.

In recent years, there have been multiple actors who have taken on the role of Peter Parker/Spider-man in Sony movies. The first actor to take on the geeky, innocent teenager was Tobey Maguire in “Spider-man” released in 2002. Maguire went on to play Spider-man in “Spider-man 2” in 2004, and “Spider-man 3” in 2007. In 2012, Sony’s “The Amazing Spider-man” came out starring Andrew Garfield as Spider-man. Then, in 2014, Garfield returned to the big screen playing Spider-man again in “The Amazing Spider-man 2.” In 2016, Marvel got rights to the character Spider-man and that same year “Captain America: Civil War” came out with Spider-man’s cameo played by Tom Holland. Mr. Stark (Iron Man) discovered Spider-man’s talents where he invited Peter to come and help him fight the Avengers. The most recent Spider-man movie, “Spider-man: Homecoming,”  starring Holland, came out in 2017. A new Spider-man movie is releasing in the summer of 2019 called “Far From Home” starring Holland as Spider-man once again.

In “Spider-man: Homecoming” Peter Parker is a 15-year-old sophomore living in Queens, New York, with his Aunt May and a secret no one knows. After his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns to his normal routine as a teenage boy. Although Peter starts to fully embrace his alter ego of Spider-man with the mentor of Tony Stark (Iron Man), he is soon known as “the friendly neighborhood Spider-man” but he wants to prove to Stark and everyone else that he’s more than that. He soon will put his powers to the test when the evil Vulture comes in and threatens everything Peter holds dear.

Director Jon Watts revamp Spider-man that is making fans, and critics love the newest version of the movie.

Casting for this movie was amazingly done with Zendaya as Michelle, Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds, Marisa Tomei as May Parker, Laura Harrier as Liz Allan, Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes, Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan, and Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man.

The writers revamped Aunt May who takes care of Peter as when he was a young boy his parents died. In previous Spider-man movies May Parker and her husband Ben Parker took young Peter into their homes, during that time they were both seen as older characters. In “Spider-man Homecoming” and “Captain America: Civil War” Uncle Ben is not seen, and Aunt May is a young, vibrant character who brings this new sense of adolescents to the film. Critics say the revamping of Aunt May refreshed the Spider-man movies, and created a whole new dynamic to her character.

Critics are also saying Holland’s performance and his ability to bring a new life to Peter Parker made the movie aspect feel more relatable and making this Spider-man movie the best one yet. In all aspects Holland brings a lot to the table as spider-man.

The editing and stunt scenes in this movie makes the movie unexpected and thrilling. With having all of the cool tricks Spider-man can do there are parts of the movie that makes it feel more relatable to the average teen. Peter has a crush on the character Liz and although confident in Spider-man’s suit, Peter chokes up whenever he has to talk to Liz, which many teenagers can relate to now.

If fans are looking for a thrilling yet charming Marvel movie, “Spider-man Homecoming” might be the perfect movie to watch because of the unexpected plot and exciting scenes.
