Anyone can be Spiderman

Rating: 10/10 (29 December 2018)

Spider Man Into the Spider Verse was a glorious, exciting and well told film. As a fan of the character of Spiderman since the original Raimi films, I can confidently say that this film pays tribute to its co-creators Lee and Ditko, the legacy of Spider Man and even the comic book medium itself. Miles Morales is the 2nd superhero of color this year who proves that anyone under the mask can be a hero. Alongside him is Spider Gwen, a cool but interesting character who also dates back to her original character in the comic. Peter Parker and the rest of these Spider People bring a different and interesting perspective on the character and with genuine comedy, depth and motivations make these characters full of life. This is a stylish, fast paced and well told movie. It's a movie I'd recommend even if you don't know much about Marvel's wall crawler. 10/10.
