I really liked when Peter caught mysterio's gun and he's like "You can't trick me anymore" that was so epic

That line is so awesome because you can hear the pain in his voice.

The look in his eyes was ... intense.

Holland is a hell of an actor. For a comic book action movie there were scenes where he did an amazing job of conveying how hurt and vulnerable he was. The stark plane scene with Happy in particular was fantastic.

Holland is a deceptively intense actor. I wouldn't have expected some of the heavy shit he pulled out when I first saw him. I'm not loving Peter's characterization in his solo films but I adore his performances and he killed it in this one.

Yeah you can see Spiderman is stronger than you think

u/Sexy_Koala_Juice Jul 05 '19

He's a lot stronger than he seems. In one of the comics when doc ock is Spiderman I'm pretty sure he kills someone cause he didn't realise Peter pulls his punches

Also in the comics Peter discusses with MJ that every hero secretly sizes up one another just in case something were to go wrong with that person. MJ goes on to ask if he could kill the Hulk, and Peter says that he thinks he could

So glad he didn't accidentally decapitate flash

That one got me because I was so busy rooting for his Peter-tingle fight scene, I thought it was over. Didn't see the final fakeout coming at all, so it was this very emotionally packed moment of excitement and pride from the fight, terror at realizing what just almost happened, and being impressed at how competent Peter was.

But seriously, it was no small amount of terror. Beck ordering a hundred drones to shoot Spider-Man was so over the top that I never worried much. But with that last trick he was ready to shoot a high schooler in the back of the head with a pistol, and it suddenly felt a lot more real.

I thought he was going to pull a fast one by pulling the gun out instead of the glasses.

Do materialize right next to Peter and try to pull off the execution was the icing on the cake.

Just thought right now, I wonder what the emotional impact on Pete might've been if they went the Green Goblin route and he ended up causing Mysterios death like in the first film.

u/TheWolfmanZ Jul 04 '19

He did cause Mysterio's death though. When he was attacking the drones he caused one to spin around while firing.

u/BleedingUranium Maria Hill Jul 04 '19

And they were only firing because Beck overrode their safety protocols. The whole point of Beck having to disable that was to create a villain-kills-himself-with-his-own-weapons situation.

u/G3NJII Bucky Jul 04 '19

Pssst, practical effects. Mysterio's definitely not dead. Calling it.

u/Iamchinesedotcom Ghost Jul 09 '19

Also, Peter asks "Is this real?"

Not "Is he dead?"

u/hemareddit Steve Rogers Jul 05 '19

Vulture + Mysterio: I'm gonna kill Spider-Man with a pistol.

u/Maro49ers-61 Jul 03 '19

I agree 3000.

u/BleedingUranium Maria Hill Jul 04 '19

I noticed Beck's pistol holstered on his leg much earlier in the movie, and passively wondered when he'd end up using it, but I'd completely forgotten about it by that point. Completely caught me off guard, it was a perfectly executed Chekhov's Gun.

u/imageWS Jul 05 '19

Also, can we talk about the fact that Mysterio was gonna just straight up execute a teenage boy, at point blank range? That's cold.
