Saw it the other day. There was some good action and character beats (this Spiderman was a lot of fun) but I can't help but feel we've reached critical mass here. It feels like they've got so many plates spinning at once we can't sit still long enough to enjoy much of it. Black Panther was cool, but we never got to explore him at all. Spidey shows up so the film can introduce him and then goes away because the movie doesn't need him anymore. I get that part of the appeal of these films is that there are so many heroes in the same place, but I think it's also bogging them down.
"Stay down, you're done here"
I actually thought the way Tony shut him down and pulled him from the fight was a pretty cool nod to the comics/cartoons. Spiderman has always been kinda a wannabe avenger and is always being treated like a kid by the team. It's always been that way with Spiderman and the Avengers, it's like, ok you can tag along but don't get in the way and when we say you're done, go away.
They also had to shut Spiderman down because he's easily in an entirely different class than nearly all of those heroes in terms of strength. E.g. his manhandling of Bucky.

They must really love that, "Sometimes, I'd like to punch you in your perfect teeth." line. It seems like it's in every promo clip. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant

I enjoyed the movie. The acting, dialogue, actions scenes, and pacing are great. The villian's scheme is a long reach and really holds the film back IMO. Felt like the Avengers are too smart to get swindled that way. Ranking the 2016 comic book movies
