Synopsis
A teenage superhero juggles high school life and crime-fighting as he tries to prove he’s ready for the big leagues.
Review
Fresh, grounded, and full of charm, with a strong lead performance and a standout supporting cast. The tone is light without feeling hollow, and the smaller scale is a welcome change of pace. A few early pacing issues and ties to broader continuity hold it back slightly, but it captures the spirit of the character in all the right ways.
This movie is part of our complete MCU retrospective.
