Spider-Man: Homecoming

Hosted by Joe Morgenstern Jul. 07, 2017 Entertainment
Spider-Man: Homecoming is delightfully smart, genially aware of itself and terrifically likeable. Only now is this series coming of age.

No cobwebs on Spidey — Spider-Man: Homecoming feels breezy and pleasingly fresh. It’s the sixth Spider-Man movie, but the first one from Marvel Studios, and Marvel has done the improbable by breathing big puffs of life into a declining franchise.
