Synopsis

Reception

Critics: 92%
Audience: 87%

Reviewers liked this lighter, high-school-flavored take on Spider-Man, led by Tom Holland's relatable Peter Parker. It was praised for fitting into the wider Marvel universe without feeling like setup for later films. The mild reservation was that it plays safer than earlier Spider-Man films.
