How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A superhero film that takes time to sit with the emotional weight of its hero's struggle, balancing the cost of duty against the pull of personal longing, and whether sacrifice can ever feel like anything but loss. Thrilling action is tempered by genuine character vulnerability and the ache of complicated relationships.

it maybe not be relatable to me cause im fourteen but its relalable to so many young adults and still if its not relatable its still engaging to watch as peter struggles withe his love life and his rent of course.
past the relatablety this movie is tsill pretty great if i do say so my self
the swinging action scenes are so immersive and cool to look at,peter is also pretty good and man this movie has some quotable lines like:pizza time.
dock ock is also pretty great and the reveal that harry finnaly discoverd that peter is spider man is maybe a little well dull but it served its purpose so im oke withe dat.
all a round one of the best superhero movies ever.

while the first is the most entertaining and i would even say it is a lot tighter and time efficent, spider man is still nothing to scoff at arguably as a lot more layers to it. for example, mj and peter's relationship in the first film is really good but this one allows them to flip and flop inbetween scenes and its excellent.
only minus is that i didn't notice any chairman mao on a mug like the first film.
