Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse - Blu-ray + DVD + Digital

Best Spider-Man movie ever, better than the first Spider-Verse, better than No Way Home and better than the original Spider-Man trilogy from Sam Raimi. I think you already know why by know but I'll try to explain myself anyway. You thought Everything Everywhere All At Once was the perfect Multiverse movie? You're dead wrong. THIS is the perfect Multiverse movie and it's not even close. This movie is on Puss In Boots: The Last Wish level of storytelling for kids and not being afraid to really go deep with its message. The legacy and absolute care for the Spider-Man mythos, pantheon of characters and overall history is ALL over this movie. Every single old and new character in here is unforgettable, whether they're complex, relatable and interesting or just really fun people to watch and be around. Every literal frame of this movie is filled with unique, interesting and heartfelt details and it does it so well, it rivals Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (and if you like Scott Pilgrim and you've seen that movie, you know that is VERY high praise). Miles' journey is emotional and very interesting, building off of and re-enforcing the idea that anyone can be Spider-Man, no matter what. The Spot is a villain I never even heard of before this movie and now I can easily call him one of the best Spider-Man villains in cinematic history. The writing is clever, the story is action-packed and interesting, the music is instantly iconic (whether it's become a hilarious terrifying meme or just really cool and interesting to listen to) and it leaves you feeling like you yourself crossed through the Multiverse and begging for more. That last-minute twist before the cliffhanger was so cool and I was on the edge of my seat. More animated films need to be longer if this is the quality they can put out and I cannot wait for what Beyond The Spider-Verse has in store for us and how it's going to end easily one of the best superhero stories in the modern era and in cinematic history. As for the Phil Lord and Chris Miller controversy, all I want to say to them is treat your animators nicely next time because whatever insanity happened is just not okay. If you like Spider-Man for any reason, big or small, minor or life-long nostalgic, you're going to like Spider-Man Across The Spider-Verse. No matter what.

Without fail, I have watched wildly successful movies gain sequels that were too big for just one movie. The latest entry in this Trilogy Conundrum is none other than the animated Spider-Verse series. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) was a stylish and refreshing animated film that won the Best Animated Feature Oscar. Its sequel, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), is equally good in both storytelling and animation. However, the size of such a story being stretched over two films affected some of this movie’s pacing. I am increasingly becoming a fan of the “stylized” animated movies like Into the Spider-Verse and Across the Spider-Verse. Pixar can show how realistic CGI animation can be, but I found truly creative CGI animation in other studios like this one. This “cartoony” style lends itself to the humor of the fight between Miles (Shameik Moore) and Spot (Jason Schwartzman). It’s also versatile enough to be serious when it needs to be. If anything, it is able to highlight the visual differences between the different universes. Superfans of the Spider-Man franchise likely got tons of references from decades of Spider-Man iterations. Even if this is your first introduction to the character, it’s likely you already know about the “canon events” that make up the central theme of this movie. Although it was enjoyable to see Spider-Man in different settings, the film’s second half was sluggish as it built up to the next movie’s premise. Not knowing where they were going to cut to a “To Be Continued” card made the last bit seem endless. Still, I’m excited to watch the last part of this trilogy since the first two parts have been solid. A solid Trilogy Conundrum entry in the Spider-Verse saga, I give Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 4.5 stars out of 5.

Just an amazing movie.

Good movie

The first movie was “Miles” better. The first movie was inspirational, had a good runtime, and was a great origin story. This movie is the better “Spider-Verse” story. I personally don’t like the whole multiverse thing Marvel has going on right now but they made it work out pretty good in this movie, although confusing at first. Animation style is gorgeous as expected. Runtime was a little too long.

Loved the movie and love this transfer to 4K blu-ray

A new animated Spider-Man movie. Sequel to 2018's 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse.' This will not make much sense if you've not seen that first film, so go and do it now if you haven't. If you have, read on. Miles carries on his double life. He reunites with Gwen. But she's got a problem. Then Miles meets his arch nemesis. Supposedly. The Spot! The Spot is a villain taken from Spider-Man comics. He's not the biggest threat there compared to some. And has been regarded as lame. But then things get threatening here. And in addition to his increasing problems of balancing things, Miles now has to contend with a threat to the Multiverse..... You have never seen animation like this before. This does take a few mins to settle down. But after the first set piece battle, you will be well into this. There is one sequence that those who are sensitive to flashing lights will have to close their eyes for. But just one. It is loaded with continuity references. But this won't put non comic readers off. It is also firmly character driven and full of genuine emotion. It manages to balance it out perfectly with the humour. It also makes the Spot into a character who reaches his full potential. This is a dizzying ride that you won't want to get off. But then it does suddenly slow down pace wise in the final act. I can say this without spoilers: that's because it's there for a cliffhanger, and there is a third movie to come. That is the only issue anyone could have with this movie. The slowing down and leaving it hanging that is, not that more is to come. Because otherwise it really an amazing film. It's a PG certificate so a bit too much perhaps for the very young to take in. I will say though it doesn't have anything, even with all that the animation does, that should bother epileptics or anyone who can't handle flashing lights. I am in the latter group and was fine with it. So that was nice. Oh and the other issue is that one character is hugely annoying. Spoilers. Even so, an amazing movie experience. Part three could be a while. No eta at the time of writing. All good things to those who wait. A caption announcing said third movie is the only extra thing in or after the end credits. The dvd has the following language and subtitle options: Languages: English, Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish. Subtitles: English, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Swedish. The disc begins with a short anti piracy ad. Which can be skipped via the next button on the dvd remote. Extras: Three featurettes: Creating the Ultimate Spider-Man movie. Fourteen mins on the creation of the movie. Pretty absorbing stuff and it does go into good detail. It's not just a publicity piece. Raising a Hero: nine minutes on some of the characters and their dynamics. Also interesting to hear what is said. Your friendly neighbourhood Spider-cast: Fourteen mins of chat with the cast. Which is affable and a good watch and flies by.

La mejor película de spiderman y animada. Es un deliete a la vista.

Soy fan de las películas animadas de Spider-Man, y cuando supe que Sony Pictures había restaurado en formato 4K Ultra HD el clásico "Spider-Man Across The Spider-Verse" la compre de inmediato. Se ve espectacular, mejor que nunca, con una calidad de imagen fuera de serie, lo mejor es que si trae el Slipcover de colección. Llegó rápido y en perfectas condiciones

I’m a commercial art worker & photographer, as well as someone who collected Marvel comics in the 80’s, for me this film is just pure art. The visuals are stunning, the story compelling. This film contains some of the best graphic elements in any film ever made, the way it jumps between styles to represent each universe is beautiful, the tender & tumultuous moments like when one of the heroes is being arrested by her father, a cop who’s torn between his love for his daughter and the inner need to do his duty, really heart wrenching. Even the backgrounds are beautifully rendered/painted. This leaps head & shoulders above the first film, & sets a very high bar for the coming third installment.

Francamente creo que la gran mayoría, nos gustó esta película una buena secuela que viene más cargada de una excelente animación. En la particular. Opino que supera a su versión anterior, con gran júbilo. Sin embargo, mi reseñas son técnicas, y debo decir que el Blu-ray 4K está bien distribuido en color sonido y la mayoría de las pantallas de gama media a gama alta se va a lucir esta película ya sea con HDR convencional o con Dolby Vision y con el sonido. Creo que cumple bastante bien. Sin embargo yo no he visto la versión en BLU-RAY convencional, es decir, sin HDR, pero me imagino que se ve bastante bien.
