In this round, teenage Spider-Man and his high-school chums go on the kind of whistle-stop tour so beloved of Americans who can tick off Paris, Venice, Prague and London after a day spent in each and assert that they have 'done' Europe. Bless. Anyway, since this is also ostensibly a superhero film, different varieties of giant elemental monster turn up at each location to wreak havoc, always fought off by a new hero dubbed Mysterio. And of course all is not what it first seems and Peter has to grab his suit again to hop around a lot.
If this summary sounds too churlish, it's hard to dish out praise on it apart from that young kids will probably love it, and there are more onerous way of passing two hours with a likable lead and some innocent humour. Let's just hope that with the next sequel they'll have added a bit more depth to the mix, though.
5/10
