Spider-Man: Far from Home
Stream
Rent & Buy
Peter Parker and his friends go on a summer trip to Europe. However, they will hardly be able to rest - Peter will have to agree to help Nick Fury uncover the mystery of creatures that cause natural disasters and destruction throughout the continent.
What critics thought
Far From Home lands as a breezy, crowd-pleasing MCU entry with Holland and Zendaya's chemistry drawing consistent praise, but critics split sharply over whether it amounts to anything beyond capable franchise maintenance — admirers loved its teen-comedy energy and Gyllenhaal's layered villain turn, while detractors found the action incoherent, the plot a glorified Endgame cleanup operation, and the dialogue embarrassingly weak.
“By the end, this Spider-Man really does find his tingle, yet coming after Into the Spider-Verse, with its swirling psychedelic imagery and identity games and trap doors of perception, Spider-Man: Far From Home touches all the bases of a conventional Marvel movie. It doesn't take you out of this world. But it's good enough to summon the kick—or maybe just the illusion—of consequence.”
Owen Gleiberman·Variety
“a charming teen road-trip comedy that occasionally turns into a superhero movie”
Alonso Duralde·TheWrap
“At its best and funniest, Jon Watt's second Spider-Man film plays like Sweet Valley High with a powered guest star. But as a Marvel film, it's a little flat and low-key.”
Tara Brady·The Irish Times
“unadventurous bit of superhero housekeeping that only exists to clean up the mess that Avengers: Endgame left behind”
David Ehrlich·IndieWire
“a visually incoherent, effects-heavy superhero movie”
John Anderson·The Wall Street Journal
