Spider-Man Arrives At Homecoming Premiere In The New Audi A8
Other guests at the premiere included British actress Karen Gillen, and Holland’s co-stars Michael Keaton and Zendaya. Sixteen movies deep into the MCU, this one feels fresh, relentlessly fun and with a plucky, upbeat vigor none of the others have had. Look, the comic hero movie dominates the studio system today.
The big draw for Spider-Man: Homecoming is that it’s the first solo Spidey movie to see Peter Parker exist in a world with other Marvel heroes. Tom Holland is here to blow up audiences mind with new Spidey avatar.
Still in the past, we get to see exactly what happened between when Robert Downey Jr. recruited Peter Parker at his Queens apartment and his arrival at the airport in Berlin in Captain America: Civil War.
Spider-Man: Homecoming is a soaring superhero adventure and is easily the best Spider-Man movie of them all.
But he couldn’t have done it without his live-wire leading man. Holland, a dancer and acrobat who headlined on the London stage in Elton John’s Billy Elliot: The Musical, moves with an athlete’s natural grace.
Holland has played the role before, making an appearance in Captain America: Civil War, but this is the first Spider-Man film he has headlined. He’s so smart and it’s effortless, and why do I have to work so hard when I should be more successful than him? In chemistry class, Peter tinkers with formulations of his web fluid, conveniently labeled as such; after he blows his cover with best friend Ned (the likably excitable Jacob Batalon), he dissects alien technology with him right in the middle of shop class. But having once been that young myself, I can say with confidence that Watts nails the timeless cornerstones of adolescence: “the crippling anxiety mixed with brash confidence, the life-or-death dimensions of a crush, the impatience to grow up”. Happily, we don’t see him get bitten by the spider or Uncle Ben die. It’s Holland who makes us care, not to mention that he did almost 90 percent of the stunts.
“Spider-Man: Homecoming” is a fun film with a great cast, a decent plot, and an unbelievable performance by Tom Holland as Peter Parker. That’s a lot of pressure for a kid to deal with, and it doesn’t help that he’s putting all this pressure on himself to prove to Tony Stark that he can be an Avenger. Keaton manages to solve two past issues with his role by not only providing Spider-Man a worthy foe which had been a major problem in the past three Spider-Man movies, but also gives Marvel a villain with actual depth which had plagued past MCU installments. To put it quite simply, Spider-Man: Homecoming is fantastic. The movie notes that he basically gave a teenager a super-powered suit, no guidance, and barely any supervision. Not too much, and certainly by the end I was excited for that connective tissue. “In a weird way, Tony is the epitome of what Peter should never be-great power with no responsibility”. However, this time Audi Design developed a new camouflage foil with a Spider-Man design specifically for the appearance on the red carpet at the world premiere of “Spider-Man: Homecoming”.
“The problem isn’t that any of these characters are bad; the problem is majority are terrific and Homecoming, which runs a brisk 133 minutes, doesn’t have enough room for all of them”.
