He’d rather join his classmates on a summer European adventure-especially the darkly alluring MJ, played once again with humorous, deadpan charm by Zendaya-than save the world from total destruction. Peter has had a taste of the big time, with all the rush and responsibility that entails, but he just wants to be a normal teenager. In that regard, “Far From Home” works best as a high school comedy-which also happened to be the strength of "Spider-Man: Homecoming"-with teens figuring out in adorably awkward fashion who they are and how to express what they feel within this brave new world. Working from a script by returning writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, Watts and his team playfully explore what’s happening five years after Thanos’ fateful finger snap and how the world is reshaping in ways that are both major and mundane. And for a while, “Far From Home” is a lot of fun, especially since it picks up right where “ Avengers: Endgame” left off. Watts is back as director, but this time he’s in the tricky position of helming a film that not only occupies a momentous spot within the ever-developing Marvel Cinematic Universe but also furthers Peter Parker’s individual story.
