"Spider-Man: Far From Home"

Peter Parker hopes to take a break from superhero life and use his school trip to Europe as an opportunity to get closer to M.J. but Nick Fury and a new hero named Mysterio have other plans for him.
The jokey tone of Tom Holland’s first outing as your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man returns in the first post-Endgame instalment of the Marvel universe. After such an intense and heavily intertwined finale to the franchise, Far From Home feels very, very lightweight in comparison. The gags flow thick and fast, almost to the point where the film begins to feel like self-parody and in fact the script even pokes fun at the original comic book stories upon which the film is based.

Far from Home has the tough job of bridging the gap between the culmination of the entire MCU to date (namely, the huge Endgame) and what is still shrouded in much mystery as the next phase. But as the MCU has proven time and time again in the past, everyone involved in more than up for the task and Far from Home is a lot of fun while still delivering some exciting developments about where the MCU will go from here.
A lot of people were wondering how the whole Endgame let's bring everyone back who was snapped by Thanos would work out. Far from Home, in a student-video introduction, not only pays homage to the heroes that were lost but also recounts how the "blip" worked - seemingly everyone who disappeared just reappeared where they were (although the MCU bigwigs confirmed that people …
