10/10
One of the best Spider-Man Films
29 May 2023
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was my favourite film of 2018 and after a rewatch it still holds up. It was one of the best Spider-Man films, with Spider-Man 2 being the only one that can beat it.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was one of the most unique superhero films of the 2010s because of its presentation and storytelling. It had a notable animation style that other films, i.e. The Mitchells vs. The Machines and Puss In Boots: The Last Wish. It story was also influential since Spider-Man: No Way Home used ideas from Spider-Verse.

Into the Spider-Verse was the complete packet for Spider-Man fans. It was a great origins story for Miles Morales, a love letter to all things Spider-Man with a particular focus on the Sam Raimi films, funny, emotional, and action-packed. There was substance since Miles gets the weight of being a hero thrust upon him, and Jake Johnson's version of Spider-Man who needed to get out of his middle-age funk. It was also subversive at times, like when revealing a character's true identity.

Upon my rewatch I notice more references and foreshadowing that missed the first time round.
