The movie is filled with a plethora of insider jokes for fans of the MCU as well as a level of spectacle that rivals almost any other superhero franchise. Giving the experience even more charm is filtering the characters’s actions through the prism of those awkward early teen years. They really are a likeable lot.

Holland shares strong chemistry with Jake Gyllenhaal as Quentin Beck / Mysterio and Jon Favreau as Tony Starks right hand man, Happy Hogan. The interface with his school friends is also appealing and allows for more humour to be injected into the proceedings.

Spider-Man: Far from Home successfully fills the void in the Marvel Universe left by the end of the Avengers films. It’s bigger, bolder and more fun than any Spider-Man film that has come before. It also steps it up in the crazy credits department, so don’t leave until the end of the credits finish even if the get out room lights are telling you otherwise.

During one of King-Pin’s criminal endeavours, he opens a portal so more than one version of Spidey can exist in the same space as well as leaving room to create a brand new web-slinger. Enter Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) as a young man finding his way in life who becomes the newest Web-head.

The filmmakers have used the CGI medium to its fullest and the look is fantastic with colours so bright they rival any animated film before it (even Yellow Submarine). The use of graffiti art, tagging and even slap art gives things a successful urban feel as does the soundtrack that features tunes from Lil Wayne and Ty Dolla Sign, Blackway and Black Caviar and others.

This is a rare film in that trying to put its effervesce and visual appeal into words is near impossible. You need to see it up on the big screen and get lost in its overwhelming look and solid message.

The film does present a conundrum when it comes to writing a review though as talking too much about the storyline makes it all too easy to divulge key elements that would ruin the experience for some if not all fans.

Suffice to say that the canvas this time out is huge and it taps into almost every Marvel film with the exception of two and it’s not too difficult to guess which two. The action is dizzying in it intensity and it’s not giving away too much is saying these battles take place on more than one front.

The film is very successful in presenting all your favourite characters in an ensemble piece and not watering down the traits that made them so memorable in the first place. Few films need to be seen with as much urgency as Avengers: Infinity Wars as a lot of the fun is the large number of surprises in store. Waiting runs the risk of diffusing those highs and lows through the disclosure of information.
