POSITIVES…
Having the epilogue story for Avengers: Endgame be a Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero take on the European Vacation Adventure Comedy genre is simply brilliant!
Give Director Jon Watts some extra credit for pulling off so many enjoyable set pieces through a wide variety of different set locations.
Does a good job being mostly a plot driven movie, but I’ll give acknowledgement to some of the themes that the story is tackling.
The whole cast was like a finely tuned ensemble group. Tom Holland is amazing in his role, but kudos to the rest of the cast for their equally spectacular work here.
Besides Holland, standouts for me were Jon Favreau, Jacob Batalon, Samuel L Jackson, Angourie Rice, Martin Starr, J.B. Smoove, Zendaya, and of course Jake Gyllenhaal as Quentin Beck AKA Mysterio.
There were definitely a lot of fun comedy bits found throughout the movie. Loved the humor!
The running jokes. Who doesn’t love running jokes? This movie has some very entertaining ones.
Several of the heart to heart moments between certain characters, were done really well.
Some of those action sequences, especially during the final act, were just a blast to watch.
Fantastic mid-credits and post-credits scenes. Wow!!!
NEGATIVES…
There are some moments that relies a little too much on coincidences and conveniences.
A few scenes that slowed the momentum of the movie more than I would have preferred. Some would call those scenes “pee breaks.”
Kinda predictable in certain ways.
As a comic book fan, I regret to say that there was one particular reveal that just didn’t hit as hard to me, as it probably would have to non-comic book readers. Not the movie’s fault really. Just saying.
P.S….
LOVED IT enjoyeditlikedititsokayitsmehitsterrible
