Hopefully he isn't the next Josh Trank.
Cop Car's doing good, it's currently at a 78% on RT with 31 fresh reviews. And Feige said he found Watts' take on Spidey "inspiring" too, so I'm confident this will all turn out great.

SM1 has an 89%.The first Raimi film got an 82% on RT, the first TASM film got 72%.
ell the thing TASM got wrong was redoing the origin and making the movie into another love story instead of focusing on Peter's relationships in high school. Everything else was good to great for me. This reboot is correcting both those problems as well as giving us a more believable high school aged Peter. TASM2 messed up with trying to advertise their universe building. I don't think Marvel will fall into that pit with this movie because it already exists in a franchise where most of the backbone of its greater universe building is done and they can focus on just making a good solo Spidey film. Just hint at some villains for the future rather than knock us across the head. TASM2 was also really hammy and the villains were handled poorly. Who knows if Marvel will avoid that but they've figured out a pretty good balance of being funny without having those cringe worthy lines and still being able to have high stakes and drama without taking itself TOO seriously. Obviously Marvel's track records with villains isn't great, but I think what a lot of people overlook is the fact that most of the villains Marvel has worked with in their films are B, C, or even D-List villains. They haven't had access to their A-List villains for the most part until now, because their A-listers are mostly held by Spidey, FF, and X-Men. I think they could pull off Spidey's villains really well.50 Days of Summer is at 86%.
But in all seriousness, this does kinda feel like TASM again (only with Marvel involved).
Next thing ya know, we get Mysterio considering fan's have been wanting him for a while (which was the same case with Lizard). Either him or Vulture, considering he was almost ready to go before Spider-Man 4 got canned.
Heck, wouldn't be surprised if we got both.
The cinematography and direction in Cop Car was excellent. It was dragged down by poor young performances and script, but Watts is not writing the screenplay so I have faith in this.
