Spider-Man: No Way Home

For Maguire and Garfield’s characters, the multiverse allows them a chance to make things right in the MCU.

Crossover comfort food with a redemptive twist.

Throughout all of it, the weird and complex history of Spider-Man as a cinematic icon isn't a hindrance to the story; instead, it's an enhancement, using the quirks of the character's legacy as a source of illumination into why he has endured so long.

The movie allows for a surprisingly impactful reappraisal of a long-held Spidey franchise consensus.

This film is fan service at its best because even us, casual lovers, can enjoy the ride.

Dafoe and Molina are the scene stealers in the movie, with a special mention to Dafoe for bringing back the terror he gave me at the age of 6.

Another fine and heartfelt performance by Tom Holland and some really fun appearances from past Spider-Man film characters cover for a script that was clearly rushed and lacking in any solid direction.

Not only do you get the usual cool special effects that are typical of the genre but a fun trio of Spider-Mans, lots of humour and even emotions.

You think you already have a PhD in all things Peter Parker and Spider-Man? A few shock twists and some sobering turns in No Way Home will have you questioning your credentials in the best possible way.

No Way Home is a busy, overly complicated, artificial movie, but it is also a superb new instalment of the Spider-Man saga.
