Full Plot

A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man begins to navigate his newfound identity as web-slinging superhero Spider-Man. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May, under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark. Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine--distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man--but when the Vulture emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

Metacritic
73/100

Spider-Man: Homecoming holds 7.4/10 on IMDb (815K votes), 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, and a Metascore of 73 from 571 critic reviews.

Spider-Man: Homecoming does whatever a second reboot can, delivering a colorful, fun adventure that fits snugly in the sprawling MCU without getting bogged down in franchise-building. Rotten Tomatoes (critics consensus)

Critics (92% RT) and audiences (7.4 IMDb) are closely aligned here — a rare second reboot that largely sidestepped franchise fatigue by grounding Peter Parker's story in high-school stakes rather than world-ending ones.

AI Verdict

AI-generated

Homecoming's 92% RT score confirms the MCU-integration gamble paid off — by shrinking the stakes to a stolen-tech dealer and a homecoming dance, it avoided the reboot fatigue that could have sunk a third live-action Spider-Man in 15 years.

Fan & Critic Buzz

AI Summary — from fan reviews & trailer comments

The movie "Spider-Man: Homecoming" received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its visuals and entertainment value, while others felt it was a disappointing return for the web-slinger. The film's success can be attributed to its high viewership, with 12 million views in just nine years on YouTube.

Viewer Reviews (TMDb)

  • There's now officially (not at all officially, more like just-my-opinion-ally) twice as many good Spider-Man movies as there is bad ones. But _Homecoming_ is my favourite of the bunch. 2017 has been a great year for the Superhero genre, and _Spider-Man: Homecoming_ does nothing t…

  • Disappointing return for the webslinger. After the dramatic introduction in Civil War this film feels like an excercise in keeping the coffers full. Unlike the Toby Maguire films this incarnation feels flat. It never manages to really put our superhero in any real peril...it just…

    AJGibbs · 4/10
  • I guess I should not be too surprised given the Spider Man character we saw in the latest Captain America but I have to say that I was, well, hoping for something else, as in something better. If the producer/writer intended to make a Spider Man movie for kids, and I mean kids, n…

    Dark Jedi · 4/10
  • **Young & hungry to fight crimes!** No doubt, Tobey Maguire Spider-man is the best. It was also the first modern superhero of the millennium. The visual effects and entertainment wise, the second live-action Spider-man was good too, but this one is so different. This is about a t…

    Reno · 7/10
  • After the failure that was 'The Amazing Spider-man 2' Sony made a drastic decision in lending the character back to Marvel, and did it pay off? Absolutely! Unlike the Sam Raimi trilogy where Toby Maguire was a better Peter Parker than Spider-man and the Mark Webb duology where An…

  • AMAZING!!

    skembry · 10/10
  • Spider-Man: Homecoming can't even hold a candle next to Sam Raimi's first two Spider-Man films, not to mention Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse. Homecoming is simply Marvel's integration of Spider-Man into the MCU. It works on that level. Tom Holland is a good Peter Parker; final…

  • I personally thought all hope was lost, there's no way ANOTHER Spider-Man reboot could be successful. Yet this movie is colourful, fun, and fitting movie for the MCU

    Myles · 8/10
  • A lot of fun! <em>'Spider-Man: Homecoming'</em> is entertaining, as I had expected in truth. The plot is possibly not as great as it could've been, but it is still one that is enjoyable to see. The effects are excellent, as is the humour. Tom Holland is the star of this though. H…

  • Once again, Marvel have succeeded in reinventing this franchise - and again, they have alighted on a Brit. Tom Holland is a super choice as our hero - he has oodles of on-screen charisma; he genuinely looks like he can't believe he is there half the time, and that all helps to ma…

    CinemaSerf · 7/10
  • I won't complain about the continuity error within the MCU...because no one really cares least of all myself. Well, how do we do this. I mean, it is refreshing that Garfield is gone and with him the Spider-Bully. For Marvel comics fans, it really hurt watching Garfield bully and…
