Spider-Man: Far From Home to pick up the pieces and set the stage for whatever comes next.
Based on the first wave of social media reactions, the
Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel is going to be a massive hit and quite possibly even the best
Spider-Man movie to date. Now, we've combed through all of the Tweets in order to bring you guys a breakdown of the spoiler-free reveals, including how many post-credits scenes you can expect!
We also have intel on whether it really does manage to serve as an epilogue of sorts to
Avengers: Endgame, and which of the movie's impressive cast members end up stealing the show.
So, to check these details out, all you guys have to do is click on the "View List" button below.
The Ending Will Blow Your Mind
Multiple critics have said that
Spider-Man: Far From Home's ending can't be missed, and with so many rumours swirling about what may or may not come next for the wall-crawler in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there's a very good chance that this is going to be a very big deal.
I've seen the movie and can assure you that it is indeed a game-changer, a sentiment echoed throughout pretty much all of those social media reactions. Needless to say, avoiding spoilers is a must even if it won't be particularly easy after next week's premiere and the fact that the sequel is going to open in China even earlier than the rest of the world on June 28th.
Don't Miss The Post-Credits Scenes (Yes, There Are Two)
Avengers: Endgame didn't feature a single post-credits scene, but
Spider-Man: Far From Home does indeed have two of them. As you might expect, no details have been revealed about them just yet but the majority of reactions praise them as being among the best efforts yet from Marvel Studios.
It also sounds like not having them spoiled beforehand is essential, while some even go so far as to say they're unmissable which means they're probably superior to
Homecoming's stingers.
The Best Version Of MJ Yet?
A lot of fans were baffled when Michelle was named "MJ" at the end of
Spider-Man: Homecoming, and while Zendaya has set the internet on fire with her new red hair, it sounds like critics are now fully on board with this version of the character. We know from the trailers that Peter Parker is romantically interested in his classmate, and the sequel's love story elements are also widely praised.
The question is, will MJ get that red hair from the comic books in
Far From Home? Well, that's not something that's answered in any of the reactions, so it seems fans will just have to wait and see.
It's Better Than Spider-Man: Homecoming
Spider-Man: Homecoming is a great
Spider-Man movie, but it was a very different take on the wall-crawler as he wasn't experienced and stuck to his corner of the world in Queens.
The trailers have shown the hero swinging through Manhattan so that's certainly a good start, and while we don't have specifics from these Tweets regarding just how much the comic books are embraced here, the majority seem to agree that it's superior to the previous instalment. For what it's worth, though, a handful of people did seem to enjoy
Homecoming a little bit more.
Expect Some "Bizarre" Scenes
One of the most intriguing reactions comes from a critic who says that Mysterio's involvement leads to some "bizarre" scenes in
Far From Home. Given the nature of his comic book counterpart's powers, it likely won't take long for fans to theorise what this could mean, but it's hard to say for sure, especially as the trailers haven't shown much beyond him flying and firing energy blasts.
More and more clips are now being released, so perhaps more details will be revealed soon.
It Demands Repeat Viewings
Another common theme in these reactions is that
Spider-Man: Far From Home is a movie that fans should watch more than once, and even critics who don't usually get that excited about comic book adaptations seemingly can't wait to check it out again as soon as it arrives in theaters.
That's a good sign, but it makes you wonder what it is about this movie that makes it one worth watching multiple times. Clearly, there's some really special stuff from start to finish!
A Perfect Avengers: Endgame Epilogue
Far From Home is the first Marvel Studios movie to arrive in theaters since
Avengers: Endgame, and that means there's a lot of pressure on it to answer some big questions and set the stage for whatever comes next in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Well, based on what we've seen from critics over the past 24 hours, it sounds like the sequel succeeds in that respect, addressing both some lingering theories and revealing how this world looks after that five-year time-jump following Thanos' attack.
The Most Comic Book-y Marvel Movie Yet
Another promising sign is that critics believe
Spider-Man: Far From Home is one of the most comic book-y movies to come from Marvel Studios in its 10+ year history.
When you look at things like the Portal scene in
Avengers: Endgame and Earth's Mightiest Heroes battling each other in
Captain America: Civil War, that's a bold statement, but one that's said enough to make us think that the sequel is going to deliver a lot of moments fans have been waiting for.
Jake Gyllenhaal Is A Great Mysterio
Hero or villain? Time will tell, but it sounds like Marvel Studios couldn't have found a better actor to take on the role of Quentin Beck. The actor was once up for the role of Spider-Man when it looked like Tobey Maguire was going to drop out, but it seems as if saving him for this character instead was definitely for the best in the long run.
The dynamic between Gyllenhaal and Tom Holland also sounds like a highlight, and based on everything shown in the trailers and TV spots, he could very well end up stealing the show next month.
