Hi guys it's Debbie and today I'd like to speak about "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse",
the latest movie featuring our hero Spidey, but in an entirely new way.
Please remember if you want to get some cool, Spider-Man inspired merch, check

to get a discount on all of the merch, which also includes posters, bags,
sweets and so much more such as the T-shirt I am wearing today. Now back to
the film. "Into the Spider-Verse" is an imaginative journey into a world
in which multiple realities coexist, there are alternate universes and so
also various versions of Spider-Man and other characters, hence the title
"Spider-Verse". The first character we meet and the protagonist of the story is
Miles Morales, a teenager from Brooklyn who ends up meeting Peter Parker (Spider-Man).
Peter Parker becomes Miles's mentor and as a portal which connects different
dimensions has been opened, more and more characters such as Gwen Stacy, Spider-Ham,
Spider-Man Noir, Peni Parker appear in Miles's world. This unlikely team joins
forces to defeat their enemies while also having to deal with the reality of
being in a different universe from their own and with their features, which at
times can be... odd. tìThe beauty of this film mainly consists in how the story was
built around animation, so everything you see resembles a page of a comic book,
with streaks appearing when there are certain movements, during the transitions,
along with the actual depiction of the characters who are not portrayed through
life like drawings but rather with bolder features, which remind us of a
comic strip. The overall animation is so incredibly detailed that wherever you
are looking on screen there is always something going on in the background,
there are countless details which make the viewing experience more engaging.
Although this rendition may sound as a tiring vision, an element of distraction,
it turns out to be on the contrary as a fantastic background which does not
distract from the story itself, while still keeping it dynamic. I also believe
that the plot, let's say that comprehensive concept
was conceived in order to be open to a widespread audience. This film is
essentially clean, it has an upbeat and colourful animation, there's not an excess
of intense dialogues, it teaches wholesome concepts so it appeals
to young audiences. But at the same time it also embraces the older viewing
community because "Into the Spider-Verse" is well-written, it engages the viewers
from beginning to end, it has references to the Spider-Man history, the characters
convey comedy but also know how to make fun of themselves. I think we often
automatically like (or want to like) darker topics, more adult "negative"
themes because it makes us... I guess.... feel more responsible. It's as if
we enjoy cradling our sadness and taking on the weight of the world. This is why
people become shy when it comes to talking about subjects topics society
has labelled as childish. It's as if we should always wear this mask of
toughness. But in the end we really take pleasure in enjoying the cheerfulness of
films such as "Into the Spider-Verse" which comfort the audience with their happy
themes, while still covering topics adults can relate to. This has happened
with "Wall-E", "The Iron Giant", "The Incredibles", even with TV series
such as "Stranger Things". There was an interesting article about this on
IndieWire, I believe last year, in which it showed how society nowadays is eager
to watch nice wholesome cheerful content (they included the example of "Paddington 2")
because we're looking for an escape from the negativity that surrounds us. If
you listen to the news or just scroll through any feed on your phone you'll
see countless articles which convey feelings of the fear, of sadness, they
cover the topic of death. And as adults we have to deal with these problems, it
it's our responsibility. But when we do have time to relax Peter Parker showing us
how he's been eating too much pizza and not working out really makes us grin.
Another reason why "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" was so successful was just
how innovative it was. If we were to take into consideration the general film
watching population, most people are probably not aware of
the existence of 10 Spider-Man films released in the last 15 years. They will
not be able to tell what the Spider-Man movies have been covering lately, how
stories evolving, let alone the titles. Most people remember the older 2000s
Spider-Man with Tobey Maguire, then they are aware there was Andrew Garfield at
some point and now it is all different. This is because there have been so many
different Spider-Man films that it has been hard for people to keep up with
them. On the one hand this intense production surrounding Spider-Man relies
on the affection viewers have for the character. There is a huge and successful
world built around this hero. On the other hand I think some people have been
reluctant to keep up with the latest films because they skipped some of the
previous ones. It may feel to them like watching a Harry Potter film without
seeing all the previous chapters. "Into the Spider-Verse"
also assumes that we have a basic knowledge of Spider-Man but then it
offers a completely new take on it, it is a different approach compared to all the
other Spider-Man films released around the same time. Something
refreshing which keeps audiences curious and gets them going to watch it. So overall
the features I enjoyed most of this film come together in how unpredictable the
whole concept was making it so refreshing and interesting. I would
definitely recommend it to all audiences. Have you seen "Spider-Man: Into the
Spider-Verse" yet? Leave a comment down below with your thoughts if you've seen
