![]() ![]() Just because a movie is about superheroes, does NOT mean it is suitable for young children. 2) I have said this a million times, and I will say it again. Kids will not necessarily start cursing at home just because a movie has the S word in it. 1) Parents in general, as I have seen many times, are way too overprotective. I think that parents need to get a couple things straight here. I see parents rating this at 16+, and complaining that the word porn is referenced. I am really enjoying seeing adult reviews on this. And the cast is impressively, realistically diverse Peter's friends, classmates, and teachers represent a wide range of races and body types. As always with Spider-Man, there are messages about power and responsibility, finding strength within yourself, being brave, and persevering. A house party scene shows teens holding red cups (the contents are unspecified). There's one jokey reference to porn, and Peter is shown shirtless a couple of times. Teens flirt, and adults kiss and make a few suggestive comments. There's a bit more salty language than you might expect (including "s-t," "bastard," "dumba-," and more), but it's not constant. Spidey does get in brawls with the main villain in which he's bashed, buried in rubble, and dropped from heights, and there are some explosions and fiery crashes (including a plane strewn along a beach). Death is minimal (a supporting character is disintegrated), and even sequences like that in which a ferry boat splits in half, causing panic and mayhem, aren't too scary. While there's no shortage of peril and action violence, it's not as unrelenting or large-scale as in many of the other Marvel movies. Starring an actual teen ( Tom Holland) as web-slinging high schooler Peter Parker, its spirit is very much in line with the original comics. ![]() Parents need to know that Spider-Man: Homecoming is a fun, tween-friendly take on one of Marvel's most enduringly popular characters. ![]()
