It’s a no from me. It’s M rated and superhero movies are not geared towards the kids market these days, they are quite dark.
I’d hold off until you’ve seen it yourself at least.
No.
Depends on the child. Yes they can be dark but plenty of kids watch them and they are fine. When my eldest was little he watched horror films with his uncle, I was not impressed but he would basically be a movie critic after watching them so he knew they weren't real and was appreciating how good or bad the acting was and special effects. He's now a 22 year old still right into movies and giving his in depth critique after each one 😂.
I took my teenaged son to see one of the recent spiderman movies, there was lots of younger kids there.
The movies are long though, even I got antsy about 3/4 of the way through. I noticed a few kids in my vicinity lose interest at about that point too.
So I would say yes but wait for the dvd/streaming service release so said 6 year old can watch it at their own pace.
If this child you're referring to isn't yours, I'd definitely ask the parents first either way.
You can check out reviews on commonsensemedia.org
It is a website that reviews and lists the scenes that contain swearing, sex, violence etc.
And it also has parent reviews too.

I'd take mine, she loves plenty of them. I'd look for first hand advice on that specific film rather than just general opinions.
When I'm unsure, i make the decision after I've seen the movie myself.
Our 4 year old is obsessed with Spiderman. We have let him watch the previous Spiderman movies. At home, on one of the streaming services but he doesn't really sit and watch though, so I wouldn't take him to the movies.
I think it is a judgement call you need make for your child.
