For me, this movie totally lives up to the hype that preceded it. The acting is amazing, the storytelling is great, the comedy is very solid, the action is pretty good, and the emotional aspects hit hard. Tom Holland delivers his best performance yet as Spider-Man and Zendaya and Jacob Batalon remain great in their roles as MJ and Ned. Willem Dafoe is still a savage as The Green Goblin and Alfred Molina as Doc Ock is very enjoyable to watch. Electro received an upgrade after his weak performance in TASM 2 and while Sandman and Lizard don't do much of anything they harm the story in no way. In addition to this, Marisa Tomei did her best work as Aunt May despite not having the strongest character. Although she wasn't built up very well over the course of Homecoming and Far From Home, I felt bad for her when she died. I legitmately started to tear up out of sympathy for her and how heartbreaking the whole situation was. And ofc, the arrivals of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield were spectacular. Both of them killed it in their roles and had amazing chemistry with Tom Holland. Sure, some things could've been executed better but overall, this is for sure a great movie and one of the very best in the MCU and even one of the better Superhero movies in general.
