ReportWhilst it might have possibly made for a better start to Phase 4 than an epilogue to Phase 3, Far From Home blends breezy teen road trip with suitably diverting superhero hijinks.
Far From Home was everything Marvel fans needed after Endgame, but it landed a little too soon, making a home cinema revisit considerably more pleasurable, and leaving it the perfect lighter, funnier and more frivolous antidote to the all-out war that came before - exactly what the likes of the Guardians and Ant-Man movies have been used for after game-changers like Winter Soldier, Civil War and Infinity War.
It does a superb job resetting the balance after such a world-ending cataclysm, affording a lighter touch and plenty of thoughtful, effective and well-timed comedy to ramp up the sheer enjoyment factor - something which superhero movies are, after all, more commonly and colourfully associated with. There's respect in its treatment of Stark, and in its 'next Iron Man' arc, and a game cast of familiar faces who are all very, very welcome. Favreau's Happy gets his biggest role yet, enjoying some chemistry opposite the eternally gorgeous AILF, Marisa Tomei's May, whilst Sam Jackson channels Pulp Fiction's Jules for this version of Fury, and Smulders' Agent Hill gets more than two words. And Zendaya's MJ may not have all that much chemistry with her intended love, but she's a wonderfully realised filter-less nerd character in her own right, and the two leads just about sell it.
Some wonderful fantasy moments that blend up the best Inception-esque elements of Doctor Strange and offer the absolute high points in this entire 129 minute journey
Similarly, Holland may be getting a little
old to be a convincing teenager, but he makes up for it with earnest commitment and is gifted a decent inner Spider Tingle arc here (although it's not a patch on Spider-Verse though), and Gyllenhaal goes broad for his suitably enigmatic and mysterious Mysterio, whose multi-dimensional blah origins will either leave you smirking or rolling your eyes, but whose gifts at
least make for some wonderful fantasy moments that blend up the best Inception-esque elements of Doctor Strange and offer the absolute high points in this entire 129 minute journey.
Far From Home isn't exactly showing the cracks
in the MCU beast. It's a LOT of light, frivolous fun, almost like an old Spider-Man cartoon episode come to life as a wonderfully fantastical blockbuster event. At its worst, it's familiar, playing up misdirections which have been used before, throwing up threats that don't quite have the required impact, and covering up cracks with comedy, but these are arguably its positives too, counterpointing the threat-to-end-all-threats in Endgame with the only threat that could really come
next, offering up familiar fun, reminding you of just how entertaining the MCU can be even at its breezy best, and just how funny this universe can be when it lets its hair down. It was always hovering around a 7.5, but coming so soon after Endgame theatrically, it fell down on that score; after a few months' to breathe, it earns a fun bump up.
