"When you botched that
spell, where you wanted everyone to forget that Peter Parker is
Spider-Man, we started getting some visitors from every
universe." –
Doctor Strange
Why watch this? The third Spider-Holland is
a crazy multi-verse thrill ride.
Plot Summary:
Mysterio reveals Spider-Man's identity to the world, turning
Peter Parker's life upside down and endangering those close to
him. To rectify this, Peter seeks Doctor Strange's help to cast
a spell that will make everyone forget he is Spider-Man.
However, the spell goes awry and tears open the multiverse,
unleashing powerful villains from alternate universes who have
fought different versions of Spider-Man. Dad's Preview:
So I'm like is the spidey-film too far? Are we spidered-out? The
answer is "No today!" This Sony/Marvel movie, though a bit busy
at times, delivers some really nice cinematic moments. Holland
is vulnerable, funny and strong. Zendaya excels as MJ. Then we
get the return of a host of spider-characters: The Green Goblin,
Doctor Octopus, and Electro. The really special moment is the
return of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as Spider-men from
past Sony universes. You know, the old gang all looked pretty
good, so I simply went with it. It's fun and that's all you can
really ask for in one of these Super-hero extravaganzas! (That
said, I am really over the whole multi-verse thingy.)
