Review: Far From Home. When the title first leaked after a dust-filled Infinity War cliffhanger, theories flooded the internet of a possible dusky, orange-hued backdrop for our web-slinging hero. They went a different route tipping his return in a light-hearted trip to Europe, complete with a new suit and one of Peter’s most famous rogues: Mysterio. After the disappointment of Homecoming to true Spidey fans (cringy-humored Iron Man’s lackey, a *far*-cry from comics Spider-Man. 4.2/10), I was intrigued to see this new direction they took one of my favorite heroes (and easily favorite Marvel hero) in. They did not disappoint in this fresh, different take on the character that improves in most ways on HC. Watch Spider man far from home Online
Romance-centric with personal-growth and a softer MJ. Another smart decision taking into account fan backlash was MJ. Zendaya is still a questionable choice for MJ looking absolutely *nothing* like the redhead version sacred to the character of Spider-Man, but at least she’s less offending and dark/sarcastic looking visibly angry every frame for no reason. She exudes a calmer air, and even actually (*gasp*) smiles every once in a while for a more rootable romance with Peter that gains some happy traction towards the end. Peter’s personal growth arcs are great too having to face that time-honored hero’s parable of choosing between heroics and happiness in personal life more pronouncedly than the first.
