I don't know why it works so well

Rating: 9/10 (25 March 2019)

A lot of things about this movie are AMAZING. The story, the characters, the visuals, the pace, the feeling, the comedy. It truly feels like a Spider-Man movie. Sure, there are some cliches here and there but aren't we all secretly love cliches? You don't want to see an edgy over the top Spider-Man, trust me.
And the other things are subjective depending on everyone's taste but they are not bad. For example, I didn't like the Spider Pig or whatever his name is but even that one, I will admit, it fits very well in this universe. So just because I didn't like something doesn't mean it's bad.
The first part of the movie hooks you in, it's unique and really charming. All the Spider "People" have interesting personalities and the action is really comic book style. I would have thought I'll have some problem with it because I'm not into this sort of thing but it managed to hook me in. The pace is fast and it allows for character development.
The second part, after the Spider Gang is assembled drops a little bit in quality maybe because the story becomes a little bit predictable. But come on, it's a Spider-Man movie. You know the drill, that's why you're watching it. Save the day in style, am I right?
Extra points for humor which is not awkward. A lot of times in superhero movies, the humor is quite awkward.
It's not a perfect movie but it has soul and charm and real Spider-Man vibes.
