Great, great movie. Gyllenhaal was fantastic, the Holland-Zendaya chemistry was perfect, Ned was amazing again, awesome action sequences.

I loved the credits scenes and how they set up questions/stories for the next phase. I can't wait to see where the MCU goes from here.

One of my favorite MCU movies yet! Easily my favorite Spidey film out of them all for me.

Will talk more in a week or two when spoilers are good to go.

Saw it and like others have said damn good movie, favorite Spiderman movie for sure.

Saw it and was grinning for almost all of it. This was just loads of entertainment.

The Mysterio character/motives and such took a moment to grow on me, but his action-based stuff in the second half was very compelling blockbuster cinema. I was fully sold with that aspect. Gyllenhaal didn't have to do too much, but he played all of his parts very convincingly and fit it well.

The stuff with Peter and the gang simply worked. Every dynamic was special and/or heartfelt, though I do feel like I missed a beat somewhere between Homecoming and Far From Home when it came to how Peter felt about MJ (obviously time had passed, but I wish we had that gap filled). Kind of the same thing with Peter and Aunt May, just flew right past what Homecoming gave us into what we have now.

There is one scene that really didn't sit well with me watching it, and thinking about the film driving home (had a 50-minute drive) there was another entire concept that made me go: "Uhm, okay..." and it made the whole concept seem severely underthought when writing it. I'll talk about it in time, if I see you all have brought it up in your spoiler discussions.

That mid-credits scene has a lot of "wow" to it, but one moment in particular I found that I shouted "YES!" in theater. Sad that I was the only one who did haha, but I don't regret it.

And finally, finally they've made a Spider-Man that has better CGI than SM3. It only took what, twelve years and five films in between? I would love to see this again, next time in 3D.

All this being said... Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 is still, far and away, above and beyond any other SM film I've seen, and likely any one that I'll ever see (including Spiderverse).

Maybe I'm slow and since I didn't see the trailers I didn't know what kind of story we were getting, but did anyone else who was watching this movie think...

Spoiler

... that the Earth Elemental at the beginning of the film was The Thing (Ben Grimm)?

If I saw any trailers, I'm sure I wouldn't have had any reason to think that.

Just got out of the movie 15 minutes ago. Great movie. Really enjoyed it.

"Sup dickwad! Thought you drowned."

Had me dying.

Far From Home was just as good as Homecoming and Spider-Man 2.

As far as your spoiler (which isn't really a spoiler), everyone thought it could've been Sandman. And they kinda were influenced by Sandman, Hydro Man, and Molten Man.

First time I've ever heard the Thing, though.

[Blzer]

Sandman had crossed my mind later as well, but since they were moving onto the next Marvel phase, I was like: "Hmm, this is an interesting reinvention."

Then when the water guy came, I was like: "Ohh, maybe this is a Sandman reinvention."

The Thing was an instinctual reaction only.
