Originally posted by TheVaultDwellerNow that you mention it, there was no quintessential scene of Spidey just swinging across the New York skyline. It was mostly running through neighborhoods and short buildings. The tallest building was the Washington Monument, and it didn't truly feature swinging. The few scenes he did have of him swinging had him absolutely fail it lol. It's weird he seems depowered from Civil War. Hell, I just rewatched his Civil War fight scenes and he was waaaay more capable there in terms of swinging and fighting. This is the same guy who effortlessly beat the hell out of both Falcon and Winter Soldier and swung circles around Giant Man. I like the fact that they are trying to develop his skills over time, but it's too much of a departure from his Civil War showing. This movie is going to absolutely decimate him in the vs forum lol.
To some degree, yes, he is still inexperienced with crime fighting itself. But I'm talking about basics, like web swinging. In some scenes he pulls of complicated aerial moves while under pressure, while in others he seems to have trouble just avoiding stationary objects. And it seemed clear to me that the latter instances were meant for laughs.
I still loved it of course. It got characterization right for the most part (with the exception of NuFlash who never grew on me, and Shocker who was underutilized). Drama was great, as was the plot. I loved the small stakes of the movie. It just put a few key characters in peril, and that was enough.
