Into the Spider-Verse is so good, we have two entries on the point.
Where to watch it: Spider-Man is available to rent or buy from Amazon Prime Video, and also available to stream on Starz, which costs $8.99 per month. It's not all solemn faces and punching! All in all, it's worth it just for the performances from JK Simmons and Willem Dafoe alone. Sam Raimi balanced the silly with the serious - something more modern superhero flicks should take inspiration from. Sure, watching it back now has me cringing at some of the memes, but it's a genuinely great starting point with some impressive action and exactly the right amount of ridiculousness for a superhero movie. From the overwhelmingly theatrical portrayal of Green Goblin through to some genuinely moving moments (Uncle Ben, I'm lookin' at you), the whole thing was a ride from start to finish.

Garfield is underrated and I hope he gets another chance via the multiverse in Marvel Studios' Spider-Man 3. If only there weren't so many depressing deaths. If only its comedy wasn't so cringe and forced. Andrew Garfield's stutter, jazz hands and general endearing weirdness. 'Til Kingdom Come, originally written by Coldplay to be performed with Johnny Cash, playing over the skateboard scene.Īnd then there's Peter's Spider-Man movements actually mirroring skateboarding moves, as well as being more spider-like than his counterparts. Peter goggling at Gwen from across the classroom. The fittingly named Marc Webb, who directed (500) Days of Summer, made the whole first third of this movie feel like a small independent film. I'm here to tell you that this movie's rap for being a fairly mediocre film is - well, it's only somewhat fair.
