Spider-Man's classic mythos is making goodness out of mistakes, bearing burdens that are not his, and trying to save people. Hisrejection of selfish pragmatism is epitomized by the quote, "with great power comes great responsibility." After being Iron Man's protégé, Marvel's Spider-Man finally gets his own standalone film. The most emotional part is not the reunion of the three Spider-Men, but Peter losing everything and everyone dear to him. In that state, we see him in a shabby rental flat pursued by his landlord, responding to a simple police scanner, and jumping into action. Four years after "Spider-Man: Homecoming", we finally receive the most authentic Spider-Man story.

Surpassing "Endgame", this movie moves beyond a database of memories and farewells. It returns superheroes to everyday life, reclaiming the comic essence of freedom and the boundlessness of worlds. The return of previous Spider-Men is not merely about healing past pains but about combining memories across generations, allowing audiences to reconcile with time and life. Peter, forgotten by all, embodies the idea that "with great power comes great responsibility". He still continues to silently protect the masses at the end. In this manner, the film's conclusion marks the true birth of "Spider-Man."
