Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

Rated: PG-13 – Runtime: 134 min
tesg’s Rating: Two stars (out of four)

Spider-Man was one of my favorite superheroes growing up, and I loved the first two Tobey Maguire movies.  Those of you calling “Homecoming” the best Spider-Man movie really need to go back and revisit those.  This thing is just mediocre fluff.

Baby Driver (2017)

Rated: R – Runtime: 113 min
tesg’s Rating: Three stars (out of four)

A tribute of sorts to heist speed chase getaway car movies of the seventies.  Really well shot and perfectly matched to the beat of the soundtrack.  Gets unnecessarily dark towards the end and somehow gets a chick flick ending, but still pretty great.

Cars 3 (2017)

Rated: G – Runtime: 109 min
tesg’s Rating: Three stars (out of four)

Lightning suffers a loss in confidence as he ages amidst a pack of new advanced technology cars.  He refuses to give up, his sponsor sells out to a billionaire who can afford to invest in ridiculous training facilities, this doesn’t work, Lightning takes his own path, and girls rule.

In the end, I liked it way more than I thought I would.
