movie review - Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

St. Catharines, 2018.09.18

This is hands-down the best super-hero movie I've seen. I know that that's not saying much in of itself, but I want to drive this home: it's both excellent and a super-hero flick. It's animated, and uses the medium to maximum effect as it completely redoes everything we know about Spider-man. This thing deserves all the praise it gets.

Strongly recommended.

The point isn't revenge. It is justice. Revenge is like a wave that washes up on shore - it always washes back out again. Justice is like the shore - it's still there after the wave comes and goes.
