Looking At Movies - Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

I hope we are done with Spider-Man reboots because if this character gets any younger, using the term "man" is going to seem inappropriate. Marvel missed the boat on Spider-Man when it sold the rights to Sony in 1999. Even though a complicated agreement was struck to finally get the webslinger into the Avengers universe, the story of Spider-Man is so convoluted right now that it is going to take more than a couple of decent movies to straighten it out. When you also consider that Sony could just go ahead and reboot the series again if it wanted to, you start to understand why Spider-Man: Homecoming is so unnecessarily watered down and complicated.
