>>86613284 The focus of the film was all over the place. We start the film with a Jason Bourne fight on a plane between two men in their late 40's. It doesn't become relevant until halfway through the film (and I can't even remember why), and it involves a secret train carriage.
Villains are introduced like parts of some formula. Rhino is the introductory villain and we get a fun scene with him stealing the truck with the goo, that'd have been a good way to start the film instead.
Max Dillon has no character, and that's his character. He's a background guy and his work colleagues make fun of him, then he gets superpowers and Spiderman forgets his name. The showdown in times square could've been good, Spidey is trying to talk him down in a Spidey way, he tries to outwit and out-think the villain and it works. But Dillon is just weak, and he's our main bad guy. He's got no motivation whatsoever, he stares at the camera and says "imagine if everyone was as shit as me before I fell in the eel tank" and we're meant to buy that.
Everything links back to Oscorp like they're Umbrella. We straight up see the outfits for the members of the Sinister Six, not a tease, we see them. Harry is systematically ill, and we're meant to buy this awkward lack of chemistry between two people that're meant to have been best friends. Peter won't give him blood because....I guess Harry needed motivation.
The web-hand, fuck that.
Forced problems in Peter and Gwens relationship. Oh no the ghost of your dad is cock blocking me. Oh no England?!
For what went right:
Peter and Gwen had great chemistry on account of them dating outside the film, they acted like real people around eachother when the film isn't being shit.
Spiderman was great, he was quippy, I really liked his outfit (more than Hollands if I'm honest)
I kinda liked the Electro dubstep thing, it made him feel powerful, even if as a villain he was shit.
