Say what you will about the Marvel machine, their formula works. Outside of a few missteps (looking at you, Thor: The Dark World), the MCU has largely been an enjoyable, if a little overly-produced, romp. With the release of Spider-Man: Homecoming on Thursday, it looks like they’re going to continue that streak. Critics have been glowing with their reviews, and based on the early reactions from Twitter, fans are following suit. Apparently people like Spider-Man reboots as long as they skip Uncle Ben dying again and cast actual teenagers.

#SpiderManHomecoming is probably my favorite Spidy movie, and might just be my favorite Marvel movie. Multiple viewings will be required.

#SpiderManHomecoming is wonderful. The things it changes from the comics make sense. And the things it respects, it reveres. pic.twitter.com/49oagxvQpq

Greatest #Spider-Man movie ever. @Marvel #SpiderManHomecoming was everything.

Incredible!
Go see @SpiderMan immediately.
Great wit and entertainment; holds its own with Raimi's first two films!#SpiderManHomecoming pic.twitter.com/kN9SgDMrrn— Sean Kelso (@SDKELS0) July 7, 2017
Fans have been piling praise upon Peter Parker himself, calling Tom Holland the best web slinger to date (sorry, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield). As Marvel moves into a new phase, it’s encouraging to have such a strong up and comer as a tent pole. Fans have also pointed out that the diverse, strong supporting cast is a breath of fresh air as well.
I was right. Tom Holland is the best Spider-Man. Also, quality film. A+ end credits scene

Spider-Man was great! Hilarious. Action sequences were top notch. Tom Holland is the best Spider-Man, no doubt. Lots of Marvel Easter eggs.

Honestly it was phenomenal. The Spider-Man we deserve. Tom Holland was born for this role. #SpiderManHomecoming

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING is just as good the second time around. Tom Holland really is the best Spider-Man ever.

Tom Holland knocked it out of the park too. He's the best live action Spider-Man hands down.
— Mr. Pilkington (@Onikuno) July 7, 2017
Tom Holland IS Spider-Man and anyone else who says otherwise is wrong. Homecoming is everything I wanted and more.
— ℤ𝕒𝕔𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕪 𝕄𝕔𝕄𝕖𝕟𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕪 (@ZMcMenomey) July 7, 2017
Tom Holland has officially solidified himself as the best Peter Parker/Spider-Man ever
That was awesome #SpiderManHomecoming

I swear to God don't ever mention Toby Maguire in my presence again. Tom Holland is Spider-Man.
— Echelon (@EchelonIsBack) July 7, 2017
Marvel has historically had a villain problem outside of Tom Hiddleston’s Loki, but fans are also loving Michael Keaton’s villainous turn as The Vulture.

5 big stars for Spider-Man: Homecoming! Incredible movie. Tom Holland is perfect to play Spider-Man! Michael Keaton a great villain. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Whatever you think of SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING (I really dug it) please make sure to take its true lesson to heart: Michael Keaton forever.
— Josh, Turning Green (@Dr_David_Banner) July 7, 2017
Spider-Man Homecoming was at least as good as Raimi's Spider-Man 2. Possibly better. Michael Keaton was fantastic!!!
— Loren Armitage (@Ragamite) July 7, 2017
Also, I cannot gush enough about Michael Keaton. Hands down, the best villain we've ever had in a Spider-Man movie.
— Marc Deschamps (@Marcdachamp) July 7, 2017
You were probably going to see Spider-Man: Homecoming this weekend anyway, but at least there’s a better than not chance that you’ll have a good time.
