:expressionless:
Visually:
Sony has and always will be the best when it comes to entertainment. The animation to this movie is amazingly good looking, you can't take your eyes off the screen.
The Movie:
The story seemed a bit too similar to the first one "Spider-man into the spiderverse".
SPOILER WARNING:
Miles finds himself yet again struggling to be recognized by a group he looks up, only to prove that he is his own Spider-man again and comes out on top again. The only part that has people interested is the "to be continued" at the end. Like we get it dude, Miles can be a good spider-man too, you don't have to drill it down our throats. The first one was definitely better.
The very beginning is quite confusing with so many things happening and the movie is a little longer than it could be due to the scenes to entertain the kids, but other than that it is as perfect as the first one. Storytelling, animations and soundtracks are so damn well done, truly an art. I am hyped for the third.
Really great follow up, and wish they had forgone that extreme cliffhanger, since it'll be so long until the next one. They wasted a lot of time in the first part of the movie on useless things - some of it I did quite enjoy.
Voice acting was fantastic, was great as usual to see and hear such an awesome cast.
The characters and spider-people are awesome - loved the wheelchair one.
Enjoy the jokes, and I happen to not think they are trying too hard, and it doesn't come off as annoying, like most supehero films, which I can't usually stand anymore.
Of course the animation was incredible - the art alone in this warrants so much praise, the fact the studio created a new medium for these films is nothing short of amazing - though I really missed the way they did the subtitles from the last film. Having shitty hearing, and the talking being difficult to hear in this, especially, it sucks reading subs at the bottom - it takes you out of the experience. I absolutely LOVED the way they did them in the last film like a comic book, they only did a couple in this film and I was just disappointed.
All in all, I really love the movie
"Miles, being Spider-Man is a sacrifice. That's the job. That's what you signed up for."
Sequels are always tricky because you want to go bigger and surpass expectations. I would say they were able to do this in every way and it truly is a beautiful film. It might be on the verge of being overstuffed, but they keep it fresh and end it where it needs to, and leaves us wanting more.
As everyone has already stated, it's a visually intriguing movie, with a creative style. All the jokes and light-heartedness were on point and not lame. Story was okay, nothing too special all that multiverse mumbo jumbo, seen many times with a villian. Which limits the horizon for the movie, it's a great movie but a superhero movie, so there is very little to work with. It gets as good of a score as it can get as a regular superhero movie. 7/10
Lives up to the hype! Visually it is amazing. On that front alone it's worth seeing. But it's also a completely engaging watch. If not for the ending this would be close to a perfect superhero flick. Not to give anything away, but know that this ends on a cliffhanger with no real resolution to the problems laid out throughout the nearly 2.5 hours before it. That left me a bit frustrated, but everything else was spectacular.
Good, but I nodded off at some parts so I did not enjoy it as much as the first film.
Great movie, immediately a must-watch!
I had no idea this was a two part movie. That ending was lame af! It pissed me off.
It's too convoluted. People are praising the animation more than anything else. That's the definition of style over substance.
had a feeling this was gonna be a 10/10 before i clicked play, turns out i was correct
Why did it have to stop at a cliffhanger! The story was so good.
the art in this movie is just phenomenal
For some reason I heard people complain that nothing happened in this movie. And that it was all just an ad for another 3rd movie?? I disagree so hard. It was all so good and coming together so well. The art, the different spider-people, I love all of them and all of it. I was so happy and excited I went to the cinema's showing twice! Almost went a third time but I was a little too broke for that haha. This movie is a treat that I'd like to expeerience again and again.
My friends told me a few times I had to watch this in the cinema, I didn't because I wasn't as a big fan of the first one as most people were. Yes I regret that now.
A stunning movie, beautiful colours and animation, great music and an amazing story. So many funny moments but also a lot of emotional moments between father and son/daughter.
I'll make sure not to miss out on the sequel, whenever that is coming out with the strikes.
I haven't seen such a good movie in all aspects in a long time.
Enjoyable movie, just like the first one. But, I feel the movie looks and feels a bit overdone with the graphics in some points. It is like you are stuck in a trip detached from the reality the characters live in. The things that made the first movie 'interesting and unique' graphic wize, is turned up to max volume in this second part, sometimes to point where what you see is almost abstract.
But do not let this prevent you from watching this, it is very enjoyable!
Rated a Connor 10, normal 9.7
Fracking great movie. Makes it hard to understand why Marvel doesnt do more like it
Good story, got a bit long in the middle and the fight scenes can be drawn out. None the less, it was enjoyable.
Absolutely amazing, 10/10 for me. The animation, history, everything truly top notch, so kudos to everyone involved. I'm really annoyed withthe "to be continued..." since it got me off guard, didn't know that and now I need closure :joy: can't wait.
An excellent animation in the continuation of the Multiverse theme.
A completely professional work in the continuation of the stories of Miles Morales, who this time faces a different enemy and at the same time creates some problems.
This movie introduces us to many versions of Spiderman in different worlds, which is very interesting
In general, you are facing a professional animation with strong graphics and story.
The only thing preventing me from giving it a 10 is the fact it's a two-part story.
When I watched Multiverse of Madness I thought it's not that bad, but then I watched Across the Spiderverse... I couldn't be more wrong. This is how you do multiverse period
Ps I'm never not watching on HD again, I don't want to miss on beautiful visuals like this.
Damn good movie. I was rather shocked how I fell in love with it. We got to make that third movie a Billy in theaters ,I'm sold.
My only complaint about this movie is that I really should have waited a year, so I could have watched the second part of this back to back. I'm now disappointed that it's so long until the conclusion.
Never thought the animation and music (both soundtrack and original score) could get any better. But they went even crazier with this one. Such a spectacle.
True blue Spider-Man fans will go gaga on this with the bevy of Spider-People, the lore, and endless Easter eggs throughout the movie.
Oscar Isaac shined in this film. Shameik Moore and Hailee Steinfeld were brilliant, as expected.
Into the Spider-Verse got dethroned as the best Spider-Man movie of all time by this film. Looking forward to Beyond the Spider-Verse.
the only bad thing is that it doesn't last 4 hours.
These spider people can take anyone down..
I watched this movie on an ambilight TV and I came several times.
man oh man! what a ride, can't wait for part 2
:heart:x8
This was a great follow-up to Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse (2018). And I'm sure the next one Spider-Man Beyond the Spider-Verse (2024) will be just as awesome.
The story is really good. The artwork is fantastic with one minor, personal complaint. They used a faux Ben-Day dot printing style which I found a bit distracting as well as plain old hard on my eyes - but then again, I'm old. :yum:
I do like how even though Morales is among 1000s even 10s of 1000s of other Spidermen & women & animals, he seems to be the heroiest hero of all with Gwen being a close second.
Like I said - can't wait to see the third installment.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
That did not feel like 2 hours. I want more!
I watched this on my tablet... you know... because I had to press pause like a gazillion times to enjoy every frame art. The artistic styles of each universe and the overall comic book style elements are a feast for the eyes.
Just watched the movie at the cinema and ngl this is pure peak!
Watched with Miles and Mason. Great time was had by all.
How is it possible that EVERY SINGLE FRAME in this visually stunning adventure is so gorgeously animated? I LOVED IT FROM START TO FINISH. Is a thrilling, epic, funny, mindblowing story with a cliffhanger that was just pure evil... still, an epic setup that we will have to wait til god knows when to see it all unfold.
Everything is just better, it feels like the first movie but on steroids. The art is amazing and the way the story flows is awesome. It feels like there is always something important happening.
All the new characters are good and add up to the story and the ones that come back feel even better/more iconic.
The way that the villain grows up is natural and hella cool.
If we need to put a defect on it, it definitely has to be the way it ends, still feels like it deserves the 10.
Now a little older and more comfortable in his secret identity, Miles Morales is still the same bright, personable kid we left behind after Into the Spider-Verse. He excels at school, immerses himself in the arts and makes shallow private excuses for his web-slinging adventures, but also pines for his lost friends from divergent timelines. Particularly Gwen Stacey, the Spider-Woman of a parallel universe who took a little piece of his heart when they parted ways, seemingly forever, at the climax of the first film. Well, unsurprisingly, she’s felt the same way about Miles all this time, and by imprudently using her new connections within the multiverse to drop in for a visit, she’s set motion to a potentially reality-ending disaster. Or something. Honestly, it’s a little convoluted.
Although Sony has tried to match the formula several times in the interim, there’s still nothing else that looks or moves quite like these Morales Spider-Verse films. Thoroughly hip and fresh, they flaunt their connections to the printed source while imbuing the screen with an up-tempo blast of contagious kinetic energy. It’s impossible to sit still through this, or to watch without a dazzled grin on your face... at least, not if you have the slightest bit of appreciation for classic superhero comics. As this is a sequel, and thus not altogether fresh territory, I was no longer taken by surprise, but I also wasn’t disappointed. The love and craftsmanship on display is top-shelf, from the bombastic color tones and exaggerated pinup poses in the foreground to the rich detail and Easter egg wealth that floods the scenery. It’s a worthy theater spectacle, but also promises to be a rewarding Blu-Ray rewatch, particularly in frame-by-frame mode.
That said, we do experience some growing pains. For the first hour and change, the new model is every bit as loose, free and energetic as the first. Then it gives in to the urge to get SERIOUS and CONSEQUENTIAL and the plot’s home stretch quickly grows mired under the weight of it all. The story is far too ambitious, as this chapter runs for a heavy hundred-fifty minutes and doesn’t wrap a single plot point, but the greater issue is its penchant for long, dry exposition at the cost of momentum. I don’t want to watch Gwen and Miles screech to a standstill while the older heroes breathlessly explain things. I want to watch them laugh and joke, kick out the jams (great soundtrack btw) and strike anatomically-impossible poses as they fire webs from their wrists. Plenty of that in the first hour. Much less from that point forward.
As good or better than the first... good story, the images from the classic (comic) to the very subtle current effect, I exist almost flawless.
God I can’t remember the last time I watched something where every frame was worth staring at. Spot is cute. Also it ends in such a cliffhanger like wtf u r not a season of a tv show u r a movie. Made it feel unfinished I’m so annoyed like whaaaa. But fine I’ll wait
The movie improved the cinematography of the previous one. The fan service deserves to be applauded and each scene deserves to be watched again. However, the script unnecessarily prolongs some arcs so that the third film can exist in the future.
To talk about Spider-Man is to talk about webs, spiders and taunts as he beats up the villain of the day. But it is also to talk about the spiderverse, or the "Web of Life and Fate". For those who do not know what we are talking about, it is precisely what has given rise to the adventures of Miles Morales, although it comes from far away. And it's a marvel.
Because whether you like Morales or not, it is impossible to deny that Across the Spider-Verse is a delight. It is to enjoy versions of dozens of versions of Spiderman, each one better than the last. It is to contemplate different types of drawing per universe, to analyze the color palettes, to see how the tempera blurs as one of the characters bares his heart. Across the Spider-Verse feels more like an art studio TFG than a movie.
It can get confusing, let's not kid ourselves. Too much information at once can distract us from the story, and as they say, there's a lot to cut through here. The Spanish dubbing is excellent, but asks for a review in the original version to appreciate the talks between Miles and his mother or Miguel o'Hara.
It also has excessively slow moments that break the rhythm and can become boring. It gives the impression that, as it is a "first half" of a larger work, the creators have allowed themselves to put in as much content as they wanted. And that's not always a good idea.
But it's worth it. Very much so.
Another good Spider-Man Movie..Can’t complain on this one..Can’t wait for Part 3..Good Movie.
Undoubtedly, "Across the Spider-Verse" is a game-changer from a purely visual standpoint, pushing the boundaries of animation one more time. While the writing could have been stronger, it represents a step above its predecessor, "Into the Spider-Verse," particularly because it ventures into fresh narrative territories without relying too much on familiar storylines. The film delves into extensive dialogue and character development, particularly focusing on the communication gap between generations and the weight of choices.
However, I have to confess I found the middle section excruciatingly boring. The multiverse becomes more of a fanservice spectacle, inundating the screen with a parade of ridiculous Spider-Man variations as if they Barbie models. Although most of them are used for comedic relief, the humor remains weak, mirroring the shortcomings of the previous installment. The "Indian" sequences, in particular, nearly led me to give up. Then, the film finally starts to pick up, gradually evolving into something more epic, captivating, and relatively mature in its tone.
Of course, it’s easy to leave everything hanging on a cliffhanger, yet, for the time being, the groundwork laid in "Across the Spider-Verse" is undeniably promising.
The sequel to the amazing movie Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse. It had a lot to live up to, and it delivered on every front. The journey that not only Miles Morales goes on is one that everyone needs to see. The visuals, soundtrack, and story itself work together cohesively to deliver a perfect experience for viewers. Needless to say, watch this movie.
I had heard nothing but the highest of praises going into this film, so naturally, my expectations were set insurmountable high. Yet, hours after my watch, I still sit here, absolutely blown away by what I saw. I just don't know how to put words to this that will give it justice.
Probably the most beautiful movie I've ever seen. Superb movie, with animation that has love in every frame.
I think it's hard not to compare this movie with the first one, and in my opinion, this one can evolve in a lot of aspects specially the animation styles, and in same time, it doesn't lose the essence and it keeps the transition between the comics and the movie.
In this movie, the foci is not the discovering and acceptance processes of Miles as Spiderman anymore, but his maturity as a human being/superhero, and his relationship with the others characters, making Miles to have his own difficulties (different of Peter Parker's), but always being Spiderman, what bother me here and made me think the first is better was (not just I had connected better with the first movie) the fact of this one being more dependent on a continuation... I didn't know it was finish in that way, it is even something that bothered me in another movies like in Dune...
Didn't think the sequel could come close to the first movie. But damn, I'm so glad I was proved wrong. This is even better!
9/10
I have always known that movies are art, but this is the first time that I have actually thougth about that while watching a movie. A true masterpiece.
Easily one of the best superhero movies ever made. Both the drama and action/superhero sides to the story were handled well, and the writers also skillfully sketched the supporting cast in a way that allowed the world to feel quite full and alive. The emotional beats are strong but the catalysts are so well crafted that they don't feel overwrought, as they may well have been.
My primary issue with the ending is that it doesn't; it ends in a very abrupt, Dune-esque way. This doesn't make it bad, and it still works as a singular price of art because one could easily guess what happens next, but I wish it ended on a more satisfying note.
Jake Johnson is such a scene stealer, even his voice.
amazing, the whole movie is amazing, good job
Every time Miguel o’hara came on screen so did i
Why exactly is there a GIRL on the poster of SPIDER-MAN?
Very few sequels can claim to have the same impact as the original.
Top Gun: Maverick was one and now you can add Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse to this exclusive list too.
The animation is top-notch and even more arty and comic booksy this time around.
Loved the way the creators used music to convey themes and emotions (love the scene between Gwen and Miles with Mona Lisa playing in the background)
Simply put: ATS-V is ITS-V on steroids.
Oh, the movie ends on a cliffhanger and will end Miles’ story with Beyond The Spider-Verse
And the Oscar goes to… Sony Animation has done it again.
Hailee Steinfeld's performance is by far the best, Oscar Isaac's Miguel O' Hara was pretty good too.
The animation was beautiful, like true eye candy. It had just the right balance between good action, good characters, and emotional scenes. I've never had this much fun watching an animated movie before. I had seen the first one but this second one is far better in my opinion but the first one set things up pretty well.
This was amazing except the ending! More adult, more emotional and visually incredible!!
Great film! The humour was just right for a Spiderman film, and some fantastic references and little nods to things. It seemed to drag a bit towards the end, and felt like it could have brought the conclusion a little sooner, but still a fantastic film!
This movie just DOESN'T STOP. Hoping to watch it again before it leaves theaters.
This is straight up fire.
The animation is amazing and so too is the voice acting. My only gripe is that it goes on a little too long with a lot of padding that unnecesarily adds to the runtime. It's still a great movie but sometimes, less is more!
SpidermanAcrossTheSpiderverseReview
My Rating : :star::star::star::star::star: (96/100)
Across The Spiderverse is a spellbinding and mesmerizing experience and passes the sequel test with aplomb. Starting from developing the endearing characters we loved from the first part, it adds a few solid new ones which are written as brilliantly as we can expect. The dazzling cinematography and animations leaves you tranfixed and the thrilling plot shifts leave you floored. Spiderverse is expanded vividly with the captivating work of humour, emotions and keeps you excited for what next throughout. The loudest hooting when Pavitra Prabhakar , our very own desi Indian Spider-Man comes on screen got me exhilarated. With almost all emotions getting evoked with the drama, tension and elevated climax, the cliffhanger makes me thrilled for the final act. Magical experience.
The writing is superlative and introduction of the new concept of Canon event definitely opens up new possibilities. Miguel's Spiderman is terrorizing and adds more seriousness to the plot. While the emotional moments of Miles and Gwen with their family add to the list of winsome moments during the course of the runtime. Manhattan is now Mumbattan and Pavitra Prabhakar made us go crazy. The action and visuals are enthralling to say the least.
Overall, if you likes the part 1 stop reading ahead and go watch this epic spectacle asap and if you haven't then its the right time of this weekend to catch up both parts and join in the community of Miles Morales fan club.

Another great movie with amazing animation and plot. I love the main idea behind what being Spider-Man means and the sacrifice that it takes to become one, and this movie also uses the multiverse as a plot device very well. I think a lot of ideas behind multiversal Spider-Men are similarly used in No Way Home, but this movie uses them in a different way which I appreciate.
words haven't been invented yet to express and stress how much i LOVED this movie.
i fell in love with the 2018 movie and ever since, i've been dying to see another one, the day has finally come, and i want to truly thank the universe and everyone who put all the hours and hard work that went into this movie, i want to thank every single one personally;
from the moment the movie started, with the glitching effects of the usual intro animations of the marvel logo, then Qwen's hearth wrenching & emotional backstory, i loved it all
every. single. frame.
every. single. transition.
every. single. musical note.
all of it. just. perfect;
every second of this movie, and i mean it with my whole heart, every single frame can be a painting, i can seriously feel how this movie was the product of a team full of passion and love for what they do, and they executed every detail to absolute perfection;
some of my favorite moments:
-Gwen having her Spiderman moment, where she acts quick and puts up a whole field of webs to stop that helicopter from falling and saving the people on the ground (reminded me of the Toby train scene, or the Tom Holland one where he holds the boat together, in that sense)
-the inclusion of those small scenes, from the original 2000's Spiderman with Toby, as well as the Andrew Garfield ones
-obviously the upside down scene where they both sit on that building, Miles & Gwen
-if i don't stop here i'd just end up mentioning the whole movie basically, i've had goosebumps throughout the entirety of it
i'm so glad that this has been my first ever animated movie that i got the chance to experience in a cinema, and i don't regret a single moment of it, i was truly left speechless
& also, staying all the way to the end for the end credits was so worth it, i just HAD to hear that metro song after the movie ended, it completed it so well
i'm truly out of words, and i don't KNOW how they could possibly top this movie with the third one, but i know; i know that they will
Amazing second instalment. Just like Into the Spiderverse the 3D-comic book-style animation is mesmerising, and they've somehow managed to step it up even more. That said (and this is purely a personal thing), I did find some of the action sequences to be too chaotic/busy and overstimulating. That's the only reason for my point deduction.
Like a lot of people I’ve been skeptical about seeing the latest Marvel movies, but this, THIS, is cinema. See it on the biggest screen you can. The animation is so incredibly beautiful and unique, and the use of different universes and characters is so creative! Hardly ever do I give a movie a 10/10, but this is well deserving of a perfect score. Cannot wait for the next part!
Fantastic sequel, can’t wait for pt. 2:wink:
Rated a Connor 10, normal 9
still an 8.5/10 ; liked Gwen's story arc ; disliked the main villain ; maybe too many cartoon styles at once....
as good or better than the first one. There is no post-credits scene, it's part 1.
Kinda felt jipped since I went into the theatre not knowing it's a two parter and that seriously effects how you consume the whole movie. Gwens a bitch for what she did, spider punk and not financially wise peter were understandable for their actions tho. Graphics were great. I would say this is .5 better than the first
A great emotional rollercoaster. That takes awhile to get going but is fantastic when it does.
It's a 10/10
But did not have it's "leap of faith" moment. Don't think they can match that ever. Piece of art man, piece of art.
The reveals and the setup are pretty fantastic, doesn’t hit the same highs as the first one and for all the talk of how beautiful it is, some of it is just busy and distracting. Also please don’t stink these movies up with Sony live action crap.
Really loved the animation style and the character relationships/drama. Unfortunately, this is the middle book of a trilogy - the story doesn't really start at all and the movie goes for more than 2 hours. What did they do with all that screen time?

Just too much of everything. Dosage guys is key...
