They did my boy Jake dirty

I generally avoided MCU films after Endgame. Spider Man: Far From Home was one of the first and a strong argument bolstering that choice. This one was pretty terrible. Another Spiderman movie that’s mostly about Iron Man. Another Iron Man villain that’s all smoke and mirrors with fake powers only to be unceremoniously killed off in one film. Another surly, snarky, unappealing love interest for the hero. Lots of pointless forced drama thanks largely to Peter being an unbelievable moron.

Not much else to say. Google if you care about plot details and other stuff. It’s not completely worthless. There are some cool action scenes and two legitimately funny jokes. The stealth suit was neat. Also Jake Gyllenhaal is a national treasure. He made this watchable at times. Still feel free to give this a skip.

Grade: D
