Tom Holland starrer Spider-Man: Far From Home might have some major competition now as Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse has been touted to be the best Spider-Man movie, state critics! The reviews of the film are out in the international zone and critics are totally loving this film. With praises directed towards its visual spectacle and the brilliant rendition of the comic book story to the animated movie. Not to mention the emotional and humour factor which critics insist, will keep the audience hooked till the end.
Directed by Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey and Rodney Rothman, the film stars Shameik Moore as Morales alongside Hailee Steinfeld, Mahershala Ali, Jake Johnson, Liev Schreiber, Nicolas Cage, Brian Tyree Henry, Luna Lauren Velez, and Lily Tomlin.
Mashable critic Angie Han calls the film "feels like a comic book come to life in the best way - the gorgeous art, the seemingly limitless sense of possibility. Miles is aces and I’m super here for sad-sack Peter" whereas Slash Films' editor Peter Sciretta states, "Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse is not only the best animated feature and best comic book movie this year but one of the best movies of 2018 period. I don’t think another movie does a better job of bringing a comic book to life on the big screen."
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is so incredibly good I’m uncomfortable using the kind of hyperbolic adjectives and comparisons I’m considering as I immediately exit the theater. But yeah, it’s AMAZING. pic.twitter.com/Lm7yU4O8pd

i will have many, *many*, very nice things to say about the Spider-Verse in the morning, but anyone who says it’s the best Spider-Man movie should be forced to re-watch Spider-Man 2 clockwork orange style until their eyes melt out of their heads and manhattan sinks into the sea.

Not only is SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE a great Spider-Man movie, but I think it's the BEST Spider-Man movie. A super inventive & visually stunning action-adventure about a kid learning to be a hero from a man who forgot how to be one. It is outstanding!#IntoTheSpiderVerse pic.twitter.com/vKe96y2wkH

Into the #SpiderVerse somehow expands the character’s mythos and distills his spirit down to its essence all at once. I can’t wait to see it 20 more times. pic.twitter.com/gkNOF7MprK

Spider-Man: Into the #SpiderVerse is hilarious, emotional and just so damn entertaining. Who knew that in a year when both Disney and Pixar release quality films that Spider-Verse would top them to become the best animated film of the year. It's that good.

I was fortunate to see #SpidermanintotheSpiderVerse on behalf of @HeatVisionBlog & @THR early last week, for a massive Easter Egg piece (I found nearly 90 in the film). My short thoughts:
We live in the best universe, if it means getting Spider-Man films this excellent (More...) pic.twitter.com/Hwyy7SS9G7

Their voices are used on characters such as Miles Morales aka Spider-Man, Jake Johnson as older Peter Parker, Spider-Noir and Spider-Ham, to name a few. The film is set to release in India on December 14 and promotions of the same have begun already! And with such a good word of mouth from Hollywood critics, surely Spider-Man: Into The Spider-verse might even make good box office standing amid big Bollywood films slated to release that month.
