Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

Different from the first in all the right ways while expanding its own identity. The villain becomes secondary to a larger plot in a natural way.

This sequel takes even more liberties with the art style and uses each dimension’s art to set them apart beyond just structure. Gwen’s universe in particular uses constantly shifting colors and focuses to show character emotions visibly, which I appreciated more the second viewing. The story, this time, still features Miles but isn’t only about him. At first, I was upset, but the film came to balance all the threads. I kept fluctuating between hating and loving other characters (Gwen). Also, this film isn’t afraid of silence and pauses, which was refreshing in this ‘constantly stimulated’ day and age.

Incredibly rare for the first and second to be this highly rated by me. The first is more emotional, second brings more conflict and group dynamics.

There's no way they could top the first.

...but then they did

Miguel!!! Miles!! The other miles!!! Peter B. Parker!! Why is everyone so hot???!!!

This movie is unbelievable. I could write a whole book explaining how insanely amazing the animation, the plot, the details, literally everything is. I think you already know it all.

I truly believe we are witnessing a literal revolution of movie animation.

This is automatic Oscar material, don't even bother having other candidates because it would just be embarrassing to put them against this.

I rarely assign the highest possible rating here, but "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" simply blew me away. The first movie was almost perfect, with an incredibly varied animation style, good characters, and an exciting and humorous story. The sequel is now a flawless expansion of these elements. This time, for example, even more different animation styles are blended, and the result is simply stunning.

The voice actors are also strong again. I was especially pleased to see Spider-Gwen's (Hailee Steinfeld) role expanded significantly, as her story perfectly complements Miles' (Shameik Moore). And the return of Peter B. Parker (Jake Johnson) provides a good laugh or two. Oscar Isaac as Spider-Man 2099, the Indian Spider-Man (Karan Soni), and the villain The Spot (Jason Schwartzman) are also clear highlights. There are also numerous Easter eggs that can't all be discovered during a single viewing. For fans of the comics, "Across the Spider-Verse" is one hell of a treat.

This is not least due to the fact that the story is once again very strong. While the first part was perhaps held back a bit by the fact that it was also an origin story, there's no holding back this time. The focus is on the multiverse, and it has never been done so well and creatively in any Marvel movie. Amidst all the spectacle, there is also time for smaller moments and character development. Scenes with Miles and his family, as well as Gwen and her father, stand out in particular.

Overall, "Across the Spider-Verse" is a perfect Spider-Man film. Looking ahead to the sequel, which will fortunately already be released in March 2024, my expectations couldn't be higher.

Spider-Man across the spiderverse is top tier.
Visually amazing, great unexpected story & loads of nostalgic flashbacks.

This is how you make a multiverse movie folks. Take notes Kevin Feige. Can’t wait for part 2!

Hands down, one of the best movies I have ever seen.
The Animation, the Story, The characters, The Music, and everything else, is just perfect.

To put in one word, this move is "Jodd"

everyone involved should be so incredibly proud, such a fantastic film and experience. A M A Z I N G

Greatest Animated, Spider Man, Comic Book Movie ever made...💯/💯

Film of the year so far.
