Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse (2023)

[Brian G Turner]

Have only just started watching this, but so far it's pretty brilliant - I've never seen something go so out of its way so much to subvert normal storytelling! And yet it manages to retain a strong story with plenty of pathos. Looking forward to watching the rest over the next few days.

Watched the next 45 mins. Was only meant to watch 30 mins then have a mental rest, but OMG we reached Mumbatten and Hobie and that was such disruptive storytelling that I couldn't turn it off!

I've not seen this, yet. Perhaps i'll watch it as a double bill as Into the Spiderverse as a very good addition to the Spiderman stories.

Actually, i think this is quite a rarity in cinema as don't think there has been a bad Spiderman yet and i've enjoyed all of the movies.

Well, I thought it was fantastic, and some of the most unique storytelling I've seen since the Lego Movie - not surprising as it's the same writers behind it, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

But .... but.... But ... BUT: it's only a first part, ends on a cliffhanger, "To be continued..."!

Might be worth waiting until the sequel, Beyond the Spiderverse, comes out, so you can enjoy it all properly.
