Every Sony Marvel movie ranked from worst to best

1. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

The much-anticipated sequel shows Miles well-adjusted to his new role as the sole Spider-Man of his dimension while still struggling to balance his responsibilities to his family and school with his duties as a hero. Miles encounters Spot, a villain who can create portals, while he attempts to steal money from an ATM. After Spot accidentally takes himself out, the villain discovers he can travel the multiverse.

Spot uses his resources to create a mini collider to jump to other universes and use their colliders to increase his power. Miles reconnects with Gwen when she comes to his Earth, and they spend the day together. After she leaves him, he learns that she was actually there on a mission to track Spot for the Spider organization she joined. Miles follows her into a portal and gets taken to Earth-50101, the home of Spider-Man India, where he meets him and Hobie Brown.

Miles gets brought back to Spider-Society Headquarters back on Earth-928, where he learns that his father is fated to die after becoming Police Captain. Miles finds himself at odds with the Spider Society, a team of thousands of Spider-People led by Miguel O’Hara. He eventually defeats them all, including Peter B. Parker and Gwen, before using the Spider-Society’s technology to try and get back home, ending up in a world where his uncle is alive, his dad is dead, and the version of him that lives there wasn’t bit by the spider and is actually the Prowler.

Like the first one, the voice cast is outstanding. Daniel Kaluuya as Hobie Brown/Spider-Punk, Issa Rae as Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman, and Karan Soni as Pavitr Prabhakar/Spider-Man India are all great additions to the cast but the primary standout is Oscar Issac as Miguel O’Hara/Spider-Man 2099. The movie also takes the unique animation further by blending various styles to make the different worlds and characters that inhabit them feel distinct.

The only real negative to the film is that the story is incomplete due to the second half coming in Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. Despite this, it still feels satisfying since Gwen, who is really the main focus of this particular film, gets a complete arc in the story, ending with her forming a resistance to find Miles and take down the Spider Society. It also sees her reconcile with her father, who tried to arrest her after she revealed that she was Spider-Woman. If Beyond comes out and is anywhere near as good as the first two were, the Spider-Verse films could become the best comic book trilogy ever.
