Okay I'm the sour puss gonna dunk on this movie. So after many outings as MCU's Peter Parker, there's zero character growth on Holland's Parker. He's still that annoying high schooler leading his actions via his penis. Experiencing Thanos, Mysterio's betrayal and seeing Tony's death, doesn't change his naivety at all. Dr.Strange is this movie's Dr. Macguffin and Dr.Deux Ex Machina. Conveniently he has that one spell and things for Parker to do or not do. So like any past Ironman movies, there's one thing he mustn't do at all cost and yet he does it. Again another MCU movie about correcting stupidity or mistakes. Man how many more of the tiresome same theme. As for the nostalgia bomb where "heroes" come together portion, a rather foregone conclusion how things played out. Guess I'm too desensitized with CGI orgy fest. I don't mind using it to elevate plotlines. As hollow spectacle and employing them for the sake of just using it, it's where I'm not interested. Again one note villains and Sinister Six just...is that all they can be? No point comparing this to Raimi version, Spiderman 2 is a certified modern classic. Compare this with other MCU movies instead. Gotta stop my MCU hate-watching OCD.

I felt the same, especially the first half. But I think the story is trying to say, in order for Peter to grow, Peter needs to lose Ben or May. Because Tobey and Andrew both lost the Uncle Ben before they grew to next phase.

Nevertheless, I agree the character development for Peter is bad.
