All of the stuff Homecoming build up was just glossed over or flat out ignored. The movie made it seem like Scorpion was going to be the villain of the next movie but yet he is nowhere to be found. We didn't see how Aunt May copes with him being Spider-Man (which shouldn't really be surprising looking back considering how they turned it into a joke in Homecoming), he didn't give a rats ass about Michelle in Homecoming but all of sudden he has an interest in her? It's like a movie worth of development was missing between the two movies.
Homecoming was all about him becoming his own man (something he should've learned from the very beginning but whatever) after he spends the entire movie trying to be like Iron Man and trying to get Tony Stark to notice him. Did Far From Home follow through with that by having Spider-Man be THE hero of New York. Nope they went back to him learning that he's not Iron Man and that he should be his own hero again. They also took him out of New York for no reason when it would've made more sense for him to fight Mysterio and save the day in NEW YORK (which he has yet to do in these movies). Once again, his villain is somebody who Tony Stark pissed off in the past. Did we really have to go through that again?
It's obvious, he has no idea what "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" is. Peter was trying his hardest to avoid being Spider-Man, ghosting people who need his help, and giving up a gift that his mentor gave him to somebody he barely knows so he can ask a girl out? If you're going to do this then do "Spider-Man No More" again. Don't have Peter only want to be Spider-Man when he's in the mood for it.
I like the movie but these are all my issues with it. I think if marvel or whoever wants to really help themselves with this series going forward, they’ll allow for emotional depth. I wanted to see may wrestle with the fact her nephew/son is not only spiderman but the fact they both disappeared for five years.
I get that may is his support system but it’s hard to believe a woman who lost her husband is going to be cool with her nephew putting his life at risk every day. There should’ve been tension there and hopefully we get that in the next movie since he’s made himself public enemy number one.
I’m less aggrieved about Peter not wanting to be Spider-Man because he’s grieving at the moment. Not sure if the movie communicated that well for everyone but for me it was less about a girl and more about him just wanting to be a regular kid who didn’t have to worry about saving the world, living in someone’s shadow, or the fact he fukking disappeared for five years. That’s a lot of trauma to go through and Peter has a history of putting the suit to the side when he’s going through shyt. Or going extra hard as Spider-Man and putting Peter to the side when he’s going through shyt. Either way works.
And you’re also right about the MJ thing. Besides the fact they’re calling her MJ which I won’t rant about lol but he’s all about Liz for one movie, shows no interest in this other girl at all, disappears for five years and now he’s crazy about her? I get it’s high school so you can get away with narrative shortcuts like that because teens will be teens, but that character deserves more than that. And it’s a weak excuse for poor writing
.
you know how many other villains/heroes you can bring into that storyline 
not only DD/Elektra...fukking Hammerhead, Punisher, Bullseye, Rhino, the X-men...the possibilities are endless
I do like Holland in the role I just hate how he's constantly has to be mentored Spider-Man is his own person. That's why he's amazing he carries the burdens and gets through them by himself
