A hero who shoots webs, a criminal of the working class, a boy struggling with school and everyday life, but also with another reality that seems bigger. Spider Man: Homecoming is the new life Spider Man film, the most famous superhero of Marvel Comics, one of those with the history of celluloid more troubled. Before the latch license plate of the trilogy Sam Raimi with Tobey Maguire to the barely concealed disappointment of the last two films starring Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone. All badged productions Columbia Pictures and Sony . But this time the reins are in the hands of Marvel Studios, the same as Iron Man and Captain America, and this is mainly the sense dell'Homecoming, returning home mentioned in the title. For the occasion, the mega producer Kevin Feige has bet on a teenage version of the character, embodied by Tom Holland who had already donned the costume in Captain America: Civil War, and gave the car keys and a sizeable budget to the director Jon Watts who previously had directed only one feat

ure film, Cop Car, unpublished in Italy but much applauded at the Sundance Film Festival. Rounding out the cast Marisa Tomei , Michael Keaton and Robert Downey jr. who returns to wear the Iron Man suit for the seventh time. wonder woman full movie in hindi 2017.

The story is that the student Peter Parker (Holland) that unbeknownst to Aunt May (Tomei), lives a double life as a superhero. It is he that Spider-Man that thanks to the sponsorship of billionaire Tony Stark (Downey jr.) Became the champion of the neighborhood and Youtube , waiting for a new partnership with the Avengers. Too bad that among the youth loves and ambitions by Peter hero ends up crossing the Adrian Toomes road (Keaton), a former owner of a construction company who found himself in traffic in built weapons with alien technology, including his armor steering wheel from Vulture.

The choice of the plethora of writers serving the film (six, including the director) is among the most radical. Many stations of the cross of Spider-Man will be skipped in the foot 'of. In Spider-Man: Homecoming will not find traces of the bite of a radioactive spider, which is dedicated to a simple mention in passing, but even the tragic death of Uncle Ben, cathartic origin hero. The birth of Spider-Man, his mantra ( " with great power comes great responsibility "), they are among the pillars of the history of comics superhero but for this new first time remain in the drawer. Blame congestion movie, not always successful, that would force the viewer to watch the same story told three times in 15 years.

The paradox is that the first Spider-Man Marvel managed directly from home is also the most spurious, with a costume that seems hyper son over the success of the film Iron Man than of a comic tradition that has lasted for over 50 years. They disappear classic flames of Peter Parker, Mary Jane the red and the blonde Gwen, and leave room for two minor female characters, Liz, and Michelle, played respectively by Laura Harrier and the teen star Zendaya . Despite of all the infidelity and unexpected un'eterodossia to emerge in this Spider-Man: Homecoming, however, it is the strength of a character from a movie in this part so much had faltered to be doubted. This adolescent version of the parable of Peter Parker becomes first and foremost a human story where the superhero developments while also having the Bildungsroman, and not cheap. Another point in favor of Jon Watts film is also the choice of reducing the scope of the threat, not necessarily to put the world or a metropolis on the scales. Ambitious visa Choic

e times and ennobled by an excellent Michael Keaton who brings to the screen a villain out of the box, the embodiment of anger and insecurity of an America post-crisis. A man forced to compromise and a violent life but not without a code of honor the Vulture in this version is one of the best villains Marvel cinematic universe, a commodity to be honest quite rare in the world of Captain America and Co. where to stay imprinted in the imagination has been so far only Tom Hiddleston with his Loki.

What it does instead is choosing to enter the new Spider-Man in a narrative flow in motion.

Translation: despite being a new beginning does not mean that is the beginning and if you have not seen Captain America: Civil War you would probably struggle to understand not only one of the initial sequences but also one of the pillars upon which the narrative of the film . And now the same Captain America: Civil War was quite incomprehensible to those who had not seen the previous Avengers: Age of Ultron . A choice that rewards and loyalty of the long-time fans and that leaves groping in the dark all the others, Click here for wonder woman full hd Movie Online.

forced to fill with the insight the seemingly empty spaces. But if Civil War in addition to not having an independent plot was only a succession of action scenes with the attached string Spider-Man: Homecoming is another pasta and things to say have it, beginning with the good interpretation Holland, who manages to create a good chemistry with the supporting cast, from Downey Jr. and the

same Keaton. Ultima

tely the film Watts looks good albeit not to the epic nature of some of his predecessors, beginning with the Spider-Man 2 which is one of the undisputed peaks of the superhero genre.
