Woody Harrelson looked terrible as Cletus Kasady.
I didn't even know he was in it. Doesn't sound like a bad casting choice either.

He could easily pull that role off, but not with a wig that makes him look like Carrot Top.

he was the villian this movie deserved but didnt get.

Just got back from Far From Home.

Story left alot to be desired.
Action sequences, 1 in particular, was amazing
Jake G was great

6.5/10

Mostly agree. The only thing that surprised me was the "why" but the story was really predictable. It felt like a Spidey story by the end, so I was satisfied there. The ham-fisted "there is no one else" was a bit too contrived though.

The action scenes were big-screen-worthy, especially the final one. I'm considering going back to see it in 3D.

The opening gave me some feels.

Did you stick around for the stingers?

I didnt really feel like it was forced. 

Peter's father, uncle, and now his mentor/idol has died.  Tony, the only father figure he's had since god knows when just sacrificed himself to save the world, and now this 15/16 year old feels like he has to live up to Tony's accomplishments, and he doesn't know how to cope with it.
To make matters worse the kid has no one to discuss this with because his super powers are a secret, and the people that do know about his powers are either dead, on a foreign planet, or are his Aunt or Ned.

Could you imagine that stress and loneliness?

One thing to also think about is how the MCU likes to develop character arcs over their movies (Cap and Tony emotionally and spiritually started as very different people from how their characters ended).  This was clearly a very important part of Peter's journey in the larger story.

Obviously stayed for the mid credits and post credits
Alot of people seemed to be pissed off about the implications of the mid credits scene, but given the way the MCU tells their stories I felt like it was to be expected.

Damn, sorry I wasn't clear enough. It could've saved you some typing. I didn't have an issue with Peter's trust and the implications. The "there's no one else" I was referring to was Nick Fury responding to Peter's "Dude, I'm vacay, where's Capt. Marvel or Doc Strange?" with "Unavailable." It's a freaking extinction-level threat, why aren't everyone still alive post-Infinity War available?

As for the stinger twist, I wonder if they'll use some post-Civil War in the comics material to work it out. Or could they introduce Miles? We know he exists in this continuity.

I also just read Holland had a 6-film deal to play Spidey; broken into 3 Disney movies, and 3 Sony flicks. The next movie would complete his contract. Personally, I think he's been the best live-action Spidey, and I'd like to see him continue--though mentoring Miles would be pretty cool. Did you see Into the Spiderverse?

Word, we're on the same page. 

Yeah I surprisingly really enjoyed it. 

I heard somewhere that he might end up having 2 separate trilogies because hes going to carry the mcu.

And...he's back!

Apparently, Sony and Disney remembered they both like money.
