not yetwith an adult, or to talk about afteralonethe sweet spot

The official US rating is PG-13, and we never go below it. Alone from 13, and not before, even with an adult.

The sweet spot: around 13-14, when you have seen Homecoming and can get through five minutes of illusions with a dead mentor climbing out of his grave. Why a sweet spot?

Official US rating: PG-13. In France, zinema would say 12.

The official rating, firstRated PG-13 in the US (parents strongly cautioned, some material may be inappropriate for children under 13). zinema never goes below the country's rating: it explains it.
rule
Mysterio's nightmareFive minutes of illusions: Tony Stark as a corpse climbing out of his grave, MJ crushed, Peter locked in a snow globe, then hit by a train and found with a bloody face in a cell. The frightening sequence, near the end.
Monsters of water and fire over touristsVenice, Prague and London attacked by giant creatures, drones firing on high-school students, Mysterio killed by his own machines; little blood.
Thirteen swear words and a kissTeenage swearing, a kiss on a bridge; nothing else.

What the movie brings

A sixteen-year-old hero who just wants a holiday: grief for Tony told by a teenager.
Mysterio and his illusions: a film about images you can no longer believe.
The ending, where the world learns who Spider-Man is: the best cliffhanger of the series.

Watching it together

Before

Warn about the illusion sequence, with Tony Stark as a zombie; the rest is a school trip an eleven-year-old will follow with you.

After

at 13 and up

Mysterio makes monsters so he can be the hero who defeats them: how do you know a saviour did not create the danger?
