Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse FILM REVIEW!

Alright, let's do this one last time.....Let's follow Miles Morales as he navigates his life balancing school and being your friendly neighbourhood Spider-man. It's been a year since Miles entered into the Spiderverse now he's going to go on a journey across it, to stop the menacing SPOT! The Spot may look like your average weekly cartoon villain of the week but don't tell him that because he will lose his mind and unleash hell upon you because he's a slippery devil to catch, let alone fight. Miles ends up with old friend Gwen going to different realities trying to stop Spot all the while meeting many other different Spider-Men and Spider-Women throughout the 2 hour 16min feature animated film.
My god the different animation styles are insanely gorgeous and just so brilliant from all the different spider-peoples and their worlds. Gwen's in particular has some of the most beautiful blends of colours which reflect moods and emotions and the goings-on in the world and story perfectly. Hobie Brown aka Spider-Punk is a show stealer with his ever-changing animation! There is about 20 mins of flashbacks and reminders to the last film just to show you that all this came from some just unthinkable out-of-the-box foreshadowing, I have ever seen in a film. The Butterfly effect in this film is insane, the attention to details the animators and writers and directors had for these animated films is extraordinary and out of the park. The story is quite dark and mature for a family friendly film, but don't worry there are jokes here, and they are genuinely funny. There's so much I could say, but I want to keep this spoiler free. My faves are Miles, Gwen, Peter B Parker, Miguel O'Hara, Spider-Punk, Spider-Man India, Spot and I know it's like I could name all the characters, but honestly they are all so good and the great writing and voice actors support it so much. There were some sound issues to start the film when I watched this, but It was not to a point where, I needed there to be subtitles haha.

Miles is fantastic as usual with his gripping story and how he balances life and spider-man. All the voice cast here are just excellent you know, I can't say enough of how good a job they have all done! All the cast and crew behind this film need a massive pat on the back for their outstanding efforts towards bringing us not only one of the best animated films and spider-man films ever made but also Spider-man stories! Daniel Pemberton kills it once more with his original OST! Metro Boomin with their licensed soundtrack is also a massive hit! Animation, music, soundtrack, voice cast, story are all outstanding, and I am willing to 100% say PHENOMENAL!

10/10!
This is in the league of the best Spider-Man films ever made and spoiler alert.......this was only part 1 of the two part Spider-verse films. March 29th 2024 cannot come quick enough!!!! Honestly I don't know what else to say. If you are a Spider-Man fan, you will love it. If you are not a Spider-Man go watch into the spiderverse first because you will be blown away! I got a video review on my youtube channel!

Thanks for visiting my blog true believers!
Stay Swinging and EXCELSIOR!
