Good movie! Obviously the same flaws as any other Bollywood movie with cheesy writing, terrible screenplay, bloated story, etc. but two things mitigate it well: it made me feel good watching it and it did a great social service. 8/10 is recency bias, this movie will probably settle into a solid 6.5 though

There are a lot of cinema purists that will claim this movie is a cash grab full of high flying wires and green screens. They’d be forgiven if that’s all they saw while they watched it and rated it on its technicalities. I am fortunate that I experienced the true feeling of “going to the movies” after ages, I am lucky that I saw it with my friends, and I am grateful this movie was a celebration of how far cinema has come and how far it can go. That’s what Spider Man is to me and I’m very happy that’s what I saw.

Christian Bale's acting was phenomenal. He absolutely owned the role.
