Ultimate Spider-Man (2012–2017)
8/10
Watch with low expectations. It's not as bad as everyone says.
20 May 2013
I wasn't so sure about this show at first. When I first heard about it I thought, "Why do they keep trying? They are just going to fail again." When I read the other reviews on here, I assumed it would be pretty bad, but it really isn't.

First, I'm going to talk about the weak parts. Don't expect me to know everything because I only saw the first 2 episodes so far, but do realize that this show is made for children. It's on Disney XD, so you can't watch it as an adult and expect it to be awesome. You have to bring out your inner child and watch the show as if you are that child you once were. I mention this because Spidey has many corny jokes that are childish. Even though they are, I still laughed at some and I am 20 years old. Also, it doesn't follow perfectly with the comics, so for you Spidey comic fans, don't be too upset with it. They are just trying to bring more children viewers.

The good parts of this show is that it kept me interested. The flashback/describing moments that Peter/Spidey has are well done and it is neat how they do it. You will know what I am talking about when you watch the show, which I suggest you do. It is a nice fast paced show and it has plenty of villains that make it very interesting. I know already that I am going to continue watching this series. I don't want to reveal anything about the show since I don't want to ruin anything, but I think Spider-Man could possibly be ultimate, as stated in the title.

In conclusion, the show has its moments and its weak parts, but all shows are like that. You can't create a perfect television show, especially a cartoon based off of a superhero. So, why not give it a try. I did with low expectations and I enjoyed it, so I hope you do also.
