Spider-Man: No way home – the third installment of the Spider-Man series played by Tom Holland – is one of the most anticipated blockbusters of the year. The work starts from the milestone after the second part (released in 2019), when Peter Parker was revealed by the evil Mysterio to be Spider-Man. Immediately, the lives of Peter and his relatives and girlfriend MJ (Zendaya) were turned upside down because of stories woven by the media. The police arrested him to investigate the murder of Mysterio, and both Spider-Man and his friends’ studies were hindered.Video Player is loading.ReplayPresent 3:04/Time 3:04Loaded : 0%Progress : 0%UnmuteFull screen

Peter turns to Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), asking him to use magic to change reality, making people forget that he is Spider-Man. Doctor Strange breaks the rules to help him despite being warned that this is a dangerous type of magic. During the execution, affected by Peter’s talkative habit, Doctor Strange accidentally opened the multiverse, leading to the appearance of a series of villains. Spider-Man was tasked by Doctor Strange to “correct mistakes” by capturing these villains so that he could return them to their universe, but things were not as simple as Peter Parker thought.

When the movie trailer was released in mid-November, Marvel fans were excited by the presence of a series of villains in the previous installments. Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe), Doctor Octopus (Alfred Molina), Sandman (Thomas Haden Church) each appeared in the first series of Spider-Man movies. Two enemies of Spider-Man – Lizard (Rhys Ifans) and Electro (Jamie Foxx), who participated in The Amazing Spider-Man parts – also appeared . Although taking the idea from the old character, director Jon Watts aroused the curiosity of the audience with the question: facing Spider-Man in a new universe, what will the villains do and vice versa, Peter Parker will solve it. when there is no enmity between them.

Spectacular, emotional are the things that Marvel’s latest blockbuster brings . Converging five villains, the work is a series of fiery, dramatic confrontations. Spider-Man 3 opens with Spider-Man’s high-rises gliding through buildings – featured in previous installments. The audience continues to be treated with a fight scene on the highway, in the jammed traffic of Peter and Doctor Octopus, or a showdown between Spider-Man and Electro on the high-voltage grid. Through computer graphics, the Sandman’s figure appears magnificent, swallowing Spider-Man when fighting at the Statue of Liberty.

The difference of the new film compared to the previous two parts is the presence of Doctor Strange. Many segments between Strange and Peter Parker are invested in visual effects with the city scene being bent, winding, creating a strong visual impression. Audiences are easily overwhelmed by the bold architectural frames, with endless spatial depth. The scenes of Doctor Strange’s magical mirror world are reminiscent of the movie The Ultimate Wizard (2016).

Not stopping at the image part, the work evokes the viewers’ emotions when going deep into Spider-Man’s psyche. Despite being a superhero, Peter is still tormented by the fact that his friends’ education is affected because of him. Peter Parker chooses to solve the problem according to his own ideal, accepting to confront Doctor Stange. With Spider-Man, the villains before becoming bad people all had a life and a fate, so it is not necessary to handle conflicts in the most cruel way.

Spider-Man 3 is more special than the previous two because the main line – the villain is not clearly divided, but the biggest obstacle lies in the psychology of Peter Parker. At times, Spider-Man struggled with his thoughts: whether what he did was right or wrong when many bad things happened, leading to grief. One of the most memorable moments in the film is when Peter is dazed in the rain with the accusations of a New York City resident, that wherever Spider-Man goes, death is spread there. Tom Holland’s performance is easy to create sympathy for the audience, thereby realizing the tragedy of Spider-Man as a boy who has just reached adulthood but has to live two different lives.

The work is also a tribute to the fans of the Spider-Man series, not only the parts played by Tom Holland. At the early premiere in Ho Chi Minh City on December 15, many viewers were delighted to hear the familiar line of Doctor Octopus – “Hello Peter”, rejoicing when each once-villain appeared in turn with heroic music. coated. However, because the script connects with the old movies, viewers need to know the content of the previous parts so as not to ignore the metaphorical details (easter eggs) that the director installed.

In the US, Spider-Man: No way home received “rain” of praise . According to Rotten Tomatoes statistics , the work has a positive 95% rating from a total of 225 articles.
