Where had we stayed? | Spider-Man No Way Home Review

Spider-Man No Way Home picks up exactly from the end of the previous film, that is from Mysterio who reveals the identity of our beloved spider, telling everyone that it is the young Peter Parker who is hiding behind the mask and from the montage of the images it is clear that the it is Peter’s own fault for Mysterio’s death. Clearly the life of our friendly neighborhood spider undergoes a drastic change.

Even if he manages to get acquitted by the court, public opinion is divided between those who believe him guilty and those who continue to believe him a hero. But it’s not just his life that suffers the effects of Mysterio’s statements, in fact his friends and Aunt May also suffer repercussionssimply because they have contact with him.

Spider-Man No Way Home review: the true origin story

And that’s why Peter decides to turn to Doctor Strange asking him to help him get everything back to normal. Except something goes wrong during the spell so you end up cracking the Multiverse by creating one series of returns that are managed with the adolescent lightness typical of previous films, giving the film an incessant pace that doesn’t give you time to think, giving the feeling of being on a roller coaster.

The choral is managed in a perfectly balanced way alternating moments of lightness and intensity without forgetting to probe Peter’s wounded soul, for the first time in the mirror with his fallible part.

The true origin story | Spider-Man No Way Home Review

Spider-Man No Way Home mette Peter and his growth at the center of the situation, finally our friendly neighborhood Spiderman he finds himself without any mentor to cover his back, so it’s time for him to become an adult and start making decisions on his own, and that’s why in the end Spiderman decides to strip off all the upgrades that had been given to him by others and start over.

The film confronts us with the need for change, take a look back to get the momentum and move forward. Precisely for this reason it seems to be in front of a real origin story because for the first time, Tom Holland’s Spider-man finds himself walking alone.

The trailer | Spider-Man No Way Home Review

Many did not appreciate this Spider-Man staged by the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it was defined “spoiled” and even too pampered, first by Tony Stark who made him participate in a civil war between the “greats”, avoiding any kind of mess. , and then the “fake Fury” which makes it the only weapon against the threat that we later discover to have been orchestrated to perfection by Mysterio. Indeed this is the first time Peter has faced a threat without having your back covered. Even if he asks for help from Strange, who is a performer more than a colleague, he quickly manages to free himself from him, when they disagree on how to deal with the problem.

He finds himself alone against everyone having to fix something bigger than himself – which we remember being just a 17-year-old boy – invested with a great power that he did not choose to have, that he has to manage a double life in which on the one hand they find themselves all the typical adolescent problems, on the other hand there are the superhero problems, where you have to find solutions to save the world from the bad guys, but if up to Fare From Home there was a guide you can rely on, from now on you can only count on himself and on his strength.

No Way Home is the real beginning of this Spiderman.

Conclusions

At the end of this review of Spider-Man: No Way Home we can say that the film is the perfect conclusion of the first film trilogy by Tom Holland which finishes presenting the situation and characters and marks the true beginning of our favorite. In fact, it has been announced that others are in the works three films with Holland as the protagonist as our favorite wall climber. So we expect to see how, once he has abandoned the role of the spider-child, he will face future threats in a more mature guise. What do you think of it?
