This is where we start to suffer some and start to straddle the line of whether a movie was good or not. This movie is fine, but the plot for Mysterio was very weak and kind of a cop out. Marvel has this thing where they like to butcher their villains and this one is no different also. Sure the idea was novel, but in the end, it is just like... why? This movie the Tony Stark inventions on the suit tend to start to overshadow Spider-Man himself also. Definitely not the most welcome change.

The much much worse spiderman movie

The second of the Nickelodeon Spider-Man movies has the kids sent on an extensive school trip to europe and holy hell just what kind of school is this is it built on top of a diamond mine or something.
After ruining the character of Spider-Man in the first movie, the sequel follows this up by ruining the character of Nick Fury by making him an imbecile who is so obsessed with trying to recruit Peter that he kidnaps a whole class of children and puts them all in mortal peril multiple times. A hundred foot tall multiversal fire giant that can consume the entire planet? Nah, that's not serious enough to bother Captain Marvel, lets get help from the teenager who can shoot silly string from his hands.
Yeah I know it is not 'really' Fury in the movie, but the post credits idiocy somehow only makes things worse and just puts an emphatic cap on a movie that seems written by internet trolls.
On the villain side this film introduces the iconic Mysterio character to the MCU, only here he uses swarms of drones to make his illusion seem real because that is not totally fucking stupid.
Mysterio works best as being used on a personal level, rather than doing this kind of godzilla shit. Indeed, the best parts of the movie are where he has to fight one-on-one with Peter.
Mysterio's master plan is so idiotic that it could be beaten by someone with a pair of infrared goggles. Nobody thinks of running any sort of scanning whatsoever on these monsters. Nobody questions the thousands of rounds of drone ammunition that are inevitably littered around the attack sites.
The heroes do next to nothing making them deserving of a victory, they really are only able to beat Mysterio thanks to a complete accident giving them insight into his subterfuge. Spider-Man has his spider sense conveniently disabled for most of the film for reasons not explained, and every character has their common sense disabled for all of it. Even Tony Stark is not safe from this in his grave, as they have him leave an advanced suite of murder drones in the hands of a highschooler because that sure is a good idea.
Just take a pass on this mediocre piece of MCU fanfiction and pretend phase 3 ended with Endgame.
