[SPOILERS]
Holy sh*t bro. Spider Man Far From Home is by far one of the greatest superhero movies I have seen in a very long time.

The plot at first seems simple, as the trailer showed; the universes are split, villains from other movies return, and Spider-Man has to fight them all.

It's simple until we get a redemption arc into it. Aunt May tells Peter to "redeem" all of these characters, essentially help them resolve their psychopathic/villain tendencies and send them back to their universe as reformed people with a second chance at life.

This too takes a double twist when the villains choose to refuse Spider-Man's help mid-recovery and terrorise the newfound New York City together.

Spider-Man was given a choice: to either seek revenge and lose himself, or stick to his plan of helping the original villains till the end.

He also gets help from the other two Spider-Mans! And it wasn't cheap thriller here either, the 3 Spider-Men bond before they fight, giving advice to each other from their lives.

Aunt May's death is also strategically used to deliver the age old line "with great power comes great responsibility", a line the other spiders knew all too well, a real tearjerker centerpiece.

The dynamics of Spider-Mans fame are explored briefly but enough.

Tobey Maguire and everyone from the original movie has aged, and it shows (is also referenced in the stiff back scene).

And the ending too is very bittersweet. Spider-Man is known, but Peter Parker is forgotten by everyone.

Tom Holland's Spider-Man seems to have truly come into his own here too. A sort of coming of age story is also present here. The upcoming trilogy will definitely be unique to say the least.

They could maybe do a little more with the bonding, but what is given was more than enough, and hey, wouldn't mind a Christmas special spin-off showing the 3 Spideys simply hanging out and being bros while in character 🤷‍♂️
