Spider-Man Far From Home box office collection Day 1: The Tom Holland starrer is helmed by Jon Watts.Spider-Man Far From Home had a record-breaking opening in the US. Now, in India, it is expected to set the cash registers ringing. The film has received a positive response from critics.
Spiderman: Far From Home is the first film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Avengers: Endgame and ends its phase three. The sequel to 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming has Tom Holland reprising his role of Pete Parker. Helmed by Jon Watts, the film also stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Zendaya, Samuel L Jackson, Jon Favreau, Jacob Batalon, Marisa Tomei and Cobie Smulders.
It will be interesting to see if Spider-Man Far From Home will be as big a hit as Spider-Man Homecoming which ended its global box office run at over 880 million dollars.
The Indian Express’ film critic Shalini Langer gave the film a 3.5-star rating and wrote, “Director Watts, who also wrote and directed the 2017 Spider-Man: Homecoming, knows that he has a winner on his hands with the awkward Holland playing an even more awkward Peter-in-love, and with the charming Zendya as crusty MJ and the brilliant Batalon as his best friend Ned making a winsome threesome. Ned gets his own parallel adorable love story, and while he may be the overweight sidekick and she the straight-A, good girl, their relationship is not played just for laughs. Far From Home’s best moments come when it sticks to Peter’s school group, including two hapless teachers and many teenagers with different interests (plus one hunk with a crush on MJ).”
'Far From Home is jaw dropping'
Managing Director for Cinema Blend, Sean O'Connell tweeted, "Ok friends. #SpiderManFarFromHome is jaw dropping. First half is a lot of fun, coasting on the good vibes of the HOMECOMING cast. But that second half is EXTRAORDINARY, delivering the BEST Spidey action ever. Most SHOCKING ending in a Spider-Man movie ever. Fans will flip out!"
Over a series of more tweets, he added, "A lot of people have asked. Yes, there are two #SpiderManFarFromHome end-credits sequences. They are VERY important. First one, without hyperbole, made me RIDICULOUSLY excited for the future of Spider-Man in the MCU. AVOID SPOILERS and EXPERIENCE IT fresh, at all cost. Excelsior!"
"Also, I'm crazy in love with the red-and-black #SpiderManFarFromHome suit, and will own multiple shirts in this pattern as soon as physically possible. Most favorite on-screen look for old Web head... ever?" he further tweeted.
'Far From Home has dethroned Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2'
Film critic Kevin McCarthy compared Far From Home with Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2. He tweeted, "FAR FROM HOME has dethroned Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2 & is now favorite Spider-Man film. What’s insane is that I can’t even tell u why I’m so in love with this film because it would be a spoiler. Gyllenhaal is incredible. Holland re-confirms as the best Spidey to date. Amazing."
'Spider-Man: Far From Home is funny, exciting, romantic, goofy'
Fandango managing editor Erik Davis, in his early rection called Far From Home a “brilliant ground-level look at Spidey’s world and how events of Avengers: Endgame impacted everyday life.”
He tweeted, "#SpiderManFarFromHome is funny, exciting, romantic, goofy & follows HOMECOMING in being this brilliant ground-level look at Spidey's world & how the events of #AvengersEndgame impacted everyday life. Lots of twists & turns, plus some adorable summer romances, too. I'm a big fan"
