Review:
Spiderman into the
Spiderverse is one of those animated films that is instantly striking due to
it’s visual style and energy. The visual
style is so striking that it takes a little while to adjust to it in action. Once you settle into it it’s a cornucopia of
visual delights. The character designs
and lush backgrounds make for a beautifully vivid film. Thankfully the story is just as strong as the
visual. The story is a fun superhero
tome filled with great messages for kids and adults alike. The voice cast all fit their characters
perfectly with Shameik Moore and Jake Johnson sharing great chemistry. Hailee Steinfeld as a SpiderGwen has spinoff
written all over it but it’s not nearly as fun as John Mulany as Spider Ham and
Nicholas Cage as Spiderman Noir.
Ultimately, Spiderman into the Spiderverse is a fun film which offers a
fresh version of animation which makes it pop.
