1st 20 minutes or so were super boring. Once it did pick up it was great though. I liked Mysterio as a villain and agree he didn't have to die. Jake did a good job. They did a good job using the drones to create the illusion. Put it in a real world perspective.
His motivation was contrived, but it was a good tie in to other movies. And him blaming Peter for Tony's death was super fucked up! And the Iron Man zombie? Sheesh!
As far as Mysterio getting Edith, I think that was just a bonus once he figured out Peter had it. His plan wasn't centered around it, it just sped it up.
Peter is not supposed to have it all together. He's a teenager trying to figure shit out. Yes he fought an intergalactic war, but he was taking orders from others the entire time. He didn't have to think and lead. Now everybody wants him to do that and be Stark to top it off.
I do wish he was more of a shit talker like in comics and cartoons. Garfield played that aspect perfectly. And I'm not digging this morbid, depressed MJ. Hopefully she gets more personality later.
Overall, great follow up to the first and they played the fallout from End Game well.
