The story: Miles Morales returns for another adventure across the multiverse as a dangerous new villain emerges.
The verdict: You would think that the better a film is then the more there would be to say about it, but the complete opposite can be true. Sometimes a film is so stunningly great that trying to put into words exactly what it is that made it so amazing is almost impossible. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is that film. This is a sequel that not only matches the original but tops it and does so with zest.
As both animated and comic book films go, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse must surely be one of the greatest of all time. Firstly, the animation is incredible. The artistry of this film is absolutely top notch and it’s bright, bold and highly creative. Visuals aside, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has everything an audience could possibly want - it’s engaging, it’s funny and it’s poignant. The action sequences are also fantastic and it’s so much fun taking it all in.
Another element that is so great about this film is its wide appeal. My screening had a variety of different audience members from very young kids to older couples and everyone in between, and what was even better was that everyone was completely enthralled in the film.
I have absolutely no complaints about Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. I grinned throughout the whole film, loving every minute. I cannot wait for the next instalment. An easy five stars.
The rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
