The easiest solution to this particular problem has usually been to only feature one or two villains in a superhero movie, but Spider-Man: Homecoming went in a different direction by utilizing a criminal network, and it paid off. And this isn't the only time this hierarchy approach has been used. Look at the first X-Men movie. Magneto was the main antagonist, and his Brotherhood (Mystique, Sabretooth and Toad) supported him. That's not to say that all future Spider-Man movies should use this formula. With Vulture's gang dismantled, it might be for the best if Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 go back to a more traditional approach and use only a couple villains to drive the narrative. And let's not forget that if Mac Gargan's comment to Adrian Toomes in the Homecoming mid-credits scene does indeed set up the Sinister Six, then this series is going to have to worry about making six villains shine equally. But that's a problem for another time. In any case, there's a lot to appreciate about Spider-Man: Homecoming, and thankfully, we can count its villain treatment as one of the highlights.
