'Spider-Man: No Way Home' review: Exhilarating, emotional game-changer for the MCU

The third movie in the Tom Holland spidey trilogy feels like the next big marker and a genuine game-changer for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Just before going to watch Spider-Man: No Way Home, I happened to glimpse a headline that claimed that Marvel Studios was on a downward spiral because of the less than stellar reception of Eternals and the relatively modest take of Black Widow and Shang-Chi And the Legend Of the Ten Rings compared to their pre-Avengers: Endgame films.

Well, I’m happy to say that reports of Marvel’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has never been more alive, thanks to a certain friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man.
