Into the Spider-Verse is an incredible film. From the very beginning, the animation and art direction is top notch. Spiderverse has a very unique style that I anticipate will "inspire" many animation studios in the future (aka, the art style will be stolen). From a writing standpoint, this film is not only hilarious, but brings with it very meaningful messages that hit home in ways many films do not. While some movies feel forced jumping between the comic and the serious, Spiderverse does so as naturally as a veteran web slinger flies through New York.
The humor in spiderverse picks up about halfway through the movie with the introduction of the other spider-men (and women). I never thought that Nicolas Cage would be a perfect cast in a movie, but him as Noir is masterful. His performance is filled with one liners, none of which fall flat. Spider-Ham, voiced by the incredible John Mulaney, is a childish yet funny cartoon spider-man. While at first he seems a bit out of place, the character eventually fits right into the tone of the movie. Peter B. Parker also bring a flurry of hilarious and well written jokes that lighten the tone of most scenes. While the introduction of the different characters may seem like it would break Spider-verse's carefully constructed theme, it only helps to strengthen the writing and nuances of the movie.
Overall, Spider-Verse is not only incredibly animated, but masterfully written. I would recommend this film to everyone and anyone. You don't have to like super heroes to enjoy Spider-Verse, but I would say it helps.
