Critic Reviews:
- “This is a charming, funny, coming-of-age story about a 15-year-old, Peter Parker, who has more power than he can handle and at the same time is frustrated that he can't show it off.” – The Australian
- “Watts and Company give us a new Parker and a new Spider-Man entirely sufficient to the task of course-correcting and extending the webslinger's adventures on the big screen.” – Looking Closer
- “Headlined by a winning performance from Tom Holland as a teenager enduring a truly demanding puberty, Spider-Man downscales the superhero movie.” – The Sunday Age
