125. Spider-Man: Homecoming

This week we review Spider-Man: Homecoming, in which a rookie Spidey has to balance the demands of school, crimefighting, and a hundred nervous executives trying to reboot one franchise while continuing another. The result is surprisingly delightful. As Spider-Man is known to exclaim, "Gee-Webs!"We also talk about Mike Leigh's upcoming Peterloo movie (highbrow), the adventurous next project from the director of Embrace of the Serpent (very highbrow), and how often Andy Serkis nuts (cosmic brow).Finally we reveal Edgar Wright's original soundtrack to Baby Driver, including a brand new banger by Sam that the tin-eared director refused to use. Not cool Edgar. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
