Spiderman
I had to see spiderman no way home because my friends want me to see it and there are so many women on tinder who love that movie. I am not going to lie, I found it as crappy as Shang-Chi (I will lie on tinder... you can judge me). I loughed sometimes because I found hilarious the fact that it has made fun of movies which are better than this one.
When I share my opinion about this kind of film, my friends think I don't like superhero movies. Actually, they are partially wrong and one of my "hideaway movies" (this is how I call a movie I like to see when I feel bad) is spider-man 2. You could say I prefer the old spider-man because of nostalgia and you might be right... However, I am going to explain why I have more feelings for this one.
In the first spider-man trilogie, the hero is not perfect both physically and emotionally. Therfore, there is more tension during the fight scenes: everytime he gets hit, there are consequences on his body. The scenery is also less digitized, thus making the fights maybe less impressive but more realistic. There are also more challenges related to the people living where he fights.
But the main difference with the old movies concerns the personnality of Peter Parker. The moviemaker shows that his life as a proletarian is an important aspect. He has troubles with his rent, his girlfriend, his job and his scholarship. It means that even if you are a superhero, living your life can be hard thus making a normal person an everyday hero. I think it also makes the movie less contemptible with its spectator and it tells you that your life is important and it worths filming about it.
The last but not the less, there are some scenes useless for the plot but emotionally poignant. The best exemple is the scene just after the stop of the train. Spider-Man fainted after being heroic, but woke up as Peter Parker amongst the people looking at his face. "He is just a kid" and he has never been more human.
In "no way home", people living near spider man are filmed as a stupid crowd which is the source of conflict or pain rather than a source of love or deliverance.
