This is my review of Spider-Man 3: No Way Home, a fantasy action movie for the Marvel Cinematic Universe from 2021. It's about a kid trying to avoid responsibility, causing trouble. The Spider-Man 3: No Way Home film has great action scenes, I recommend it to fans of action or super-hero movies.

If you'd like to be surprised by the Spider-Man 3: No Way Home film, I don't recommend you to watch the trailer at all, because it gives away too much of the plot, practically from the first seconds. It basically provides a summary of the film, up to the ending scene, it's only the very end we are not shown.

Review (spoiler-free) - Spider-Man 3: No Way Home, movie (2021)

I've seen the first two movies, even the two Venom films. I knew that this movie was coming, and I've seen the trailer. I was waiting for the movie, so I watched it at the first opportunity.

The Spider-Man 3: No Way Home movie is about a kid trying to avoid responsibility, causing trouble.

The story itself would be not bad, but I didn't really like the execution. The pacing is consistently fast. There are character arcs, but they seem to be rushed. There were no major logical problems. The humorous tone of the previous movies is mostly gone.

The cinematography is great. Practically every scene is interesting visually. The special effects are also great. The action scenes are nice, they make full use of the special abilities of the characters , and they are easy to follow.

The characters are okay, although we don't really get to know anything new about them, as this movie builds on the knowledge of previous episodes. They are portrayed by the actors fine.

The music (by Michael Giacchino) is good.

Spider-Man 3: No Way Home is a watchable fantasy action film, I think fans of Marvel movies will enjoy it.

My experience

I wasn't satisfied with Spider-Man 3: No Way Home (2021), but I admit that it looked great. I'd prefer a better story instead of the one we got.

Rating: Good (2+ out of 3 points). Spider-Man 3: No Way Home is a well-made film.

Enjoyment: Average (2 out of 3 points). Spider-Man 3: No Way Home is some fun moments, but I wasn't impressed.

Rewatchability: I'm not sure. I think it's mostly the surprise of the story that makes you feel interested, but there are plenty of good action scenes you might enjoy watching again.

Chance of watching it again: I don't think I would.

Chance of watching a sequel: I know I'll watch it, even though I didn't particularly liked this instalment.

Will you enjoy this?

If you cannot miss any release related to the Marvel Universe, you'll watch this anyway.

If you are interested in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you'll probably watch this, no matter what.

If you like super-hero movies, you might like Spider-Man 3: No Way Home.

If you are a fan of Spider-Man movies, you should probably watch Spider-Man 3: No Way Home.

If you like action movies, you might like Spider-Man 3: No Way Home, although there are not so many action scenes in this movie.

If you don't mind illogical elements in your movies, you can enjoy this.

If you prefer visuals over story, Spider-Man 3: No Way Home might still be a good choice, as it looks good, although you have to sit through boring stretches of exposition.

Do you need to see the previous films to enjoy this?

Although there are some explanations, I'm sure that you'll enjoy the Spider-Man 3: No Way Home movie a lot more, if you've seen all of the previous Spider-Man (Spider-Man 1-3, Amazing Spider-Man 1-2) movies to appreciate the references.

Watching for plot points

If you are interested in magical fantasy stories, I think it's worth watching the Spider-Man 3: No Way Home movie for the plot points.

Should you watch this on your own screen at home, or is it worth going to the cinema?

The visuals definitely look better if you watch it in cinema.

Review with spoilers - Spider-Man 3: No Way Home, movie (2021)

I didn't like the Spider-Man 3: No Way Home movie, although I enjoyed some parts of it.

Cover

The covers of the movie are okay, although all of the ones I've seen slightly spoil the story.

The trailer

The trailer is basically a substitute for watching the movie.

If you prefer spoilers, it's a great trailer for the Spider-Man 3: No Way Home film. If you prefer to avoid spoilers, it will ruin the movie for you.

Promise of the first scene

The identity of Spider-Man as Peter Parker is revealed, and he has to escape from the people. I assume he'll have to deal with the consequences. Of course, as I've seen the trailer, I know he'll deal with it by trying to not dealing with it, by erasing this knowledge with the help of Dr. Strange.

Execution: In the end, I'm not sure how well do I think this promise was fulfilled. It was mostly about avoiding consequences than dealing with them, and the movie didn't really further the story of Spider-Man.

Plot summary / Synopsis

At the end of the previous episode, Quentin Beck framed Spider-Man (Tom Holland) for killing him, and also revealed his identity as Peter Parker. Spider-Man saves MJ (Zendaya) from a gathering crowd, and takes her to his home, where they find Aunt May (Marisa Tomei) and Happy (Jon Favreau), who just got broken up. Reporters arrive, then later policemen show up, and they take all of them for questioning, including Ned Leeds (Jacob Batalon).

Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) becomes their lawyer. They get attacked by an angry mob, so they move to a safer place, Happy's home.

Peter, MJ and Ned gets rejected from MIT, because of the recent scandal. Flash got in. He also publishes a book about his life as the friend of Spider-Man.

Peter visits Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), and asks him if he could go back in time to prevent the outing. Dr. Strange comes up with the idea that they could make the people forget Peter's secret identity instead. Wong (Benedict Wong), the Sorcerer Supreme warns them that tampering with the multiverse is dangerous, but then leaves them. As Peter comes up with exceptions to the effect, the spell collapses. When Dr. Strange finds it out that Peter didn't even sent a request to the MIT, he sends him away.

While Peter is talking to a woman who works as an administrator for MIT, they are attacked by Doctor Octopus (Alfred Molina). When Doc Ock takes part of Peter's Iron Spider suit, it gets taken over by the nanobots, allowing Peter to control the tentacles. The administrator woman offers to re-evaluate their admission. Suddenly, the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe) arrives. Then Peter finds himself at Dr. Strange's place, who tells him that while he tried to make people forget that they knew Peter is Spider-Man, people slipped from other dimensions who also knew his secret identity. He captured Doctor Octopus and the Lizard, but leaves it to Peter to get the others. He gives him a device that can send the targets to their prisons in the basement.

Peter asks Ned and MJ to help him. They check the internet for news about strange people.

He finds Electro (Jamie Foxx), who attacks him, but Sandman (Thomas Haden Church) comes to his rescue, and together they take Electro down. Peter sends them to the prison in the basement.

Aunt May finds Norman Osborne, who seems confused. Peter brings him to the basement. As the captured people start to talk, it turns out that they were taken right before the moment of their deaths. So, if they get back, they'll die. When Dr. Strange prepares for the spell, Peter interrupts him. After some fighting in the Mirror Dimension, Peter realises that the terrain is arranged in a fractal pattern, and calculates where to shoot the webs, to catch Dr. Strange. Peter takes the magical device, and leaves Strange hanging. Peter decides that he allows the captured criminals a chance for a change, so they won't die when they get back.

Peter finds out that the anger of Doc Ock is caused by a faulty chip allowing the tentacles to control him. He fixes the chip, giving Doc Ock back his original personality. Before they could work on the others, Norman turns into the Green Goblin, and convinces the others that they shouldn't change themselves. They escape, causing a lot of destruction. Aunt May gets injured, and dies.

Ned and MJ are able to summon a Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield) with the device, who arrived from another dimension. Then they summon another one (Tobey Maguire). With the help of the two additional Spider-Men, they start to work on cures for the super-criminals.

After they are ready, they lure them to the Statue of Liberty. They cure Sandman and Lizard, and take the power from Electro, with the help of Doc Ock. Suddenly Green Goblin attacks them. Peter is about to kill the Green Goblin, when another Peter stops him. That peter gets stabbed by the Green Goblin, but the third Peter cures Norman.

The multiverse starts to collapse, so Peter and Dr. Strange decides to complete the original spell, making everyone forget that Spider-Man is Peter Parker.

After the magic activates, people forget Peter Parker.

Peter seeks out MJ and Ned, but they don't recognise him. He wants to tell them about the situation, but then decides that he shouldn't. He meets Happy at the grave of May, but he also doesn't recognise him.

As he doesn't have access to Stark technology (although he probably still has the Iron Spider suit), Peter creates a new suit for himself.

Eddie Brock also arrived into this dimension from the end of Venom 2: Let There Be Carnage (2021), but then he teleports back, leaving a piece of the symbiote behind.

Analysis of the story - Spider-Man 3: No Way Home, movie (2021)

I didn't like the story, the problems in the plot prevented me from enjoying Spider-Man 3: No Way Home.

The message of the story

"Forgive your enemies". Probably "There's always a way to avoid being responsible for your actions"? And maybe "Super-criminals just need someone to help them, to become decent people".

Things I liked

  • The fight in the Mirror Dimension looked cool.

Problematic elements

Title: I'm not really sure why did they choose "No Way Home" as the title, as getting home would have been easy for all of the characters.

Irresponsible sorcerer: I didn't like it that for a trivial problem (admission to a school), Strange would use a spell with potentially multiverse shattering consequences. He could have just call the school, tell him that he is an Avenger, and he recommends their admission. This makes most of the plot feel stupid.

Wrong people getting here: People got here through the dimensional rift, who knew that Peter Parker is Spider-Man. Why did they get here?

  • Electro: As found out by IMDB, Electro knew about Spider-Man, but he didn't know his secret identity.
  • Eddie Brock: Brock didn't even know about Spider-Man, before he got here. (Edit: According to IMDB, it's the Symbiote who had this knowledge through a multiversal communication network of symbiotes. Bringing Brock was just a side effect of bringing the symbiote here.)

The spell: The spell makes people forget that Spider-Man is Peter Parker. But as far as I understand, it doesn't make people forget that there's a Peter Parker. So, why does Ned and MJ forget about their schoolmate?

No consequences: One of the main goal for the characters was to cure the super-criminals that arrived from another dimension before sending them back home dimensions, instead of focusing on what's happening in this dimension. Because no matter how successful or unsuccessful they will be with those cures, nothing would be changed in this particular dimension. And the audience can be pretty sure that we won't see anything related to the previous series with Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield, so we could watch the results of the changes.

Into the Spider-Verse was better in this regard, as it really focused the plot on that specific dimension, and they had to solve a problem that affected that dimension, and also, probably their dimensions, so the characters from other dimensions had stakes as well.

Keeping the status quo: In the previous instalment, Peter acted in an irresponsible manner. That lead to serious consequences. One would think that he had learnt that he should think twice before acting, especially as he seems to be an otherwise bright kid. But in this movie, he is back to his irresponsible self, who wants to dodge from consequences. Also, that was a bold move from the creators part that the world got to know the identity of Spider-Man, but that got erased here, as if nothing happened. So, basically this episode was only there to get rid of Aunt May, and the relationship of Peter and MJ. And that could have been told in a lot shorter story in an easier manner, for less cost.

Curing the super-criminals: While it's a nice thing to cure people, it would be great to know how long before their deaths were they taken by the spell. If it's seconds before they died, they won't have a lot of time to change anything before they get killed.

Spider-Man gets stabbed: As pointed out by Ryan George, why doesn't his spider-sense work at that moment? Why does Spider-Man let himself get stabbed?

Physical evidence: The spell makes people forget that Peter Parker is Spider-Man. And that's great, until they get confronted by YouTube videos about Peter, or the tons of published magazines, or the book Flash published about Peter. MJ and Ned probably texted each other, and they would also find it strange that they've had an online chat with an unknown person.

Venom in the Sony's Spider-Man Universe: I always assumed that there's a Spider-Man in that setting, but they don't talk about him in the movies, because they have enough problems of their own. But this movie makes it look like there's no Spider-Man in that Spider-Man Universe.

Unanswered questions

How can Peter move his body when his astral form is pushed out of it?

What will happen to the people of the parallel dimensions after they return?

What does Happy think about May's involvement in Spider-Man's work?

Does the spell only works on the people who are on the Earth at the moment? Or all over this dimension? Or the whole multiverse? It's not entirely clear.

* * *

Possibilities of improvement

Cut the scenes about the Lizard. His existence in the movie didn't affect anything.

How it could have been better?

Peter shouldn't just try to magic the consequences away. Also, Strange shouldn't agree to that. Peter might ask for the time travel, but this request should be denied. However, it could lead to a request by Strange, as when he's still there, some serious problem arises (probably something related to the Multiverse of Madness). And due to the involvement of Peter, his counterparts from other dimensions are also summoned, with the super-criminals with whom they are currently fighting with.

Make the story focused on the dimension of this Peter Parker. Let there be a problem / super-criminal that needs to be solved / cured here, with the help of his multiversal counterparts, so he can have an easier life.

The super-criminals could also appear, and they could cause problem for the heroes who confront them for the first time, but they could be handled easier after their own Spider-Man shows them how to deal with them.

The first two movies was building up to Peter learning responsibility for his actions, but No Way Home just takes all of that away, and we are back at square one again.

If it was the creator's need to make the whole world forget who Peter Parker is, it could have been a side-effect of something, instead of something intentional.

* * *

How does it compare to the other works of the creators?

From the writer (Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers), I've seen the previous two Spider-Man movies (2017, 2019), the Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018), and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017), and they were all good. This movie was worse.

From the director (Jon Watts), I've seen the previous two Spider-Man movies (2017, 2019), and those were good. This was not, although I'm not sure how much of that was the fault of the director.

How does it compare to the original source?

The No Way Home is a mix of the One More Day (May dies, Peter makes a magical wish), and Into the Spider-Verse (different versions of Peter appear).

It's definitely better then One More Day, as it was just plain bad. However, Into the Spider-Verse was a lot better in every single aspect than No Way Home.

How does it compare to the other films in the series?

I've felt that the first two movies in this series (Homecoming, Far from Home) worked better.

How does it compare to other adaptations of the same story?

Uses for the film - Spider-Man 3: No Way Home, movie (2021)

Plot

  • There's a secret agent (vigilante / criminal), whose identity gets revealed.
  • A man wants to make his identity secret, and wants to use magic / high tech to make everyone forget him.

Scenes

  • The fight in the Mirror Dimension is a good scene to show how such a fight works.

Scenario ideas - Role-playing game scenario ideas

  • If at least one of the characters has a secret identity, one of their enemies find out about their real identity. The enemy threatens them to reveals it publicly.
  • Some enemies the team has previously defeated (even killed), somehow get back to haunt them. They need to deal with them again.
  • Enemies from parallel dimensions arrive to attack the team. The enemies know the characters, they know their weaknesses.

Scenario ideas - Wargame scenario ideas

  • Rescue the civilians: The battle is played in the middle of a dangerous area. The attacker sets up the playing area, with at least one safe way leading through something dangerous (great hight, poisonous swamp, antimatter void). Then civilians deployed randomly on the safe area, they can be also using transports (animal mounts, carts, cars). The defender units are deployed in the middle of the safe area (they are investigating something, or preparing for the battle). Then the attacker deploys their units anywhere on the edge of the playing area. At the end of the turn, every civilian acts randomly. Roll a d6: 1-2: they freeze in place, 3-4: they move towards the nearest exit, 5-6: they move away from the nearest attacker model. If there's a defender unit in one movement range, the defender can control the civilians, so they can herd them out of the playing area. The attacker wins if they kill more than half of the defenders. The defender wins if more than half of the civilians get out of the playing area, while more than half of their own units are alive.
  • Betrayal: The defender sets up a playing area. Then the defending units (characters or squads) are deployed anywhere. Then the attacker chooses one unit (a character or a squad), with the exception of the leader, that openly betrays the rest of the team. The objective of the traitor is to kill the leader. When the defender wants to attack the traitor unit with one of their own units, except for the leader, they must roll a d6: 1-3: they attack normally, 4-5: they refuse to hurt them, instead using their attacks to stop them, or push them back, 6: they join the traitors. The attacker wins if they kill the leader. It's a draw if the original traitor unit leaves the playing area. The defender wins if they kill the original traitor unit, while more than half of their units are still alive. After the battle, the units who joined the traitor, go back to the army of the defender, seeing that joining was a mistake. If the defender doesn't want to share their models, the attacker may use their own models, and exchange the traitor models with their own.
  • Collecting captured people: At the beginning of the game, the player chooses a number of specific models among the force of the enemy. There could be some rule to the selection, for example at least 1 leader, 1 squad leader, 3 regular models. The player wins if they are able to capture these models. Winning a round of close combat against them let the player capture them. The captured models need to be carried away from the playing area, or there can't be any non-captured enemy models left around in the playing area to win.
    • Paralising weapon (easier for the player): The player has access to some ranged weapons that can take out a target model with a succesful ranged attack. The paralised model still needs to be carried away.
    • Transporter beam (easier for the player): The player has access to some transporter devices, that can transport a model away by a succesful ranged attack.
  • Fighting in a mystical place: The defender sets up the playing area. The defender comes up with a procedure that will be used to mode the terrain features at the beginning of every turn (for example, every natural feature will turn 90 degrees clockwise, and moves east, while every artificial feature moves once west, and once south, but every other turn, they move once east, and once north. Then the defender and attacker units are deployed. At the beginning of every turn, the defender uses the procedure to move the terrain around. At the beginning of the game you can decide if the borders of the playing area are walls, or if something that leaves the edge, comes back at the opposing side.
  • Depowering the targets: The defender sets up the playing area. The defender has a number of devices that can be used to depower a specific enemy model. The attacker has a low number of models, but they are very powerful. The defender creates markers for each of the attacker models, that depict the device created to depower that specific model. If the defender model carries the depowering device for the specific model, a succesful attack depowers the model, making it a regular soldier unit. The attacker wins if they achieve their chosen objective. The defender wins if they are able to prevent the attackers from achieving their objective.
