    ★★★★★

    unfortunately a timeless film that still holds so much, if not more, relevance today. 

    sweltering not just in its summer day setting but in its intense themes and racial tensions. so many amazingly directed and written scenes, the low budget is used to enhance the down-to-earth, true-to-life, personable feel of the film. Lee has so much to say and doesn’t stray away from voicing these strong feelings in many powerful long takes. 

    this film just gets better with every rewatch.

    We all want to live the life we wish we had, believe me I have tried. But then the harder I tried, the more damage I did.. You can’t have it all kid.” 

    Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has so many amazing lines like this that just encapsulate the character of Spider-Man perfectly. This movie is genuinely the ultimate Spider-Man story: it understands the character better than any movie before it and conveys that understanding in the most visually Spider-Man way…

The one positive I’ll give it is that the CGI was pretty impressive and never really looked too fake but everything else is just abysmal. Visually this is so dull and lifeless with nothing engaging being done with the camera or anything unique shown on screen. The…

    always skipped this one based on the poster and letterboxd backdrop alone because I thought it was gonna have a completely different vibe to what it did! thankfully I listened to cinemajoe’s praise on his podcast and checked it out and really enjoyed it. way less of the cliche teen romcom than I was expecting, very pleasantly suprised.

    rewatching this movie knowing how it ends makes it so much better I have no complaints now. I don’t know how a 140 minute movie feels too short but this does and that’s a huge compliment: every second is perfectly used, every scene is visually beautiful and narratively captivating, every joke had the audience cracking up. this is THE Spider-Man experience- and it’s just the first part..

    audiovisual masterclass. a true blockbuster sci-fi epic for the ages I had my jaw all the way open at so many scenes. best way to describe the effect this movie had on me is that it was like Denis used the voice on me and said “T H I S  I S  T H E  B E S T  M O V I E  Y O U V E   E V E R  S E E N” and it worked!
