Dwight Strachan

“Spider-Man: Far From Home” (Rated T)

Cast: Tom Holland, Jake Gyllenhaal, Samuel L. Jackson, Zendaya

Genre: Fantasy/ Sci-Fi

Dwight’s Rating: ***

Regular readers of this column will recognize I have a love-hate relationship with comic book-based superhero action movies.

I hate many of them! With their inane and insane plots, and their ridiculous villains seeking world or universe domination and/or annihilation, most often resulting in the obliteration of usually just New York City (but sometimes Los Angeles and London).

Most flicks in the genre leave me lukewarm, though. And I leave the theater partially deaf, after two hours of noise, mixed in with a couple jokes here and there, and a sprinkling of chemistry between the actors in the cast.
