The name of Spider-Man is a thrilling collective imagination, a sort of hero inherent in all of us: well, it was time that the general public deserved to know that “there is not only one Spider-Man”. With the advent of Doctor Strange, moreover, it was possible to think of infinite universes and consequently, infinite Spider-Man. The new animated film is Spider-Man: A New Universe precisely, which leads us to discover characters for many of you who are new and never appeared in the cinema (or almost). No more chatter, it's time for Miles Morales to prove who he is!
From great powers ... great encounters!
Miles Morales is a guy who lives a half life: on the one hand his undeniable genius at school, so much so that he was able to access a prestigious institution, on the other his artistic soul that requires him to create murals wherever he finds a wall or stick stickers all over the city driving his father crazy , neighborhood policeman. Miles finds himself in spite of himself with the powers of Spider-Man, not entirely dissimilar from the original indeed, if we want even more powerful: in fact he is able to make himself invisible thanks to an absolute camouflage with the surrounding environment and, in case of extreme danger, it is able to give off an electric shock to the touch with the enemy. Having the powers of Spider-Man, however, does not mean being him, and Miles will pay the price in the course of his adventure. In order to avoid spoilers we will not tell you in detail, but let this suffice: there will be twists and suspense, as well as a good dose of laughter; Strong of an adult and never banal humor, the film entertains and flows pleasantly without falling into ridicule. The plot is rich, full of ideas to reflect on and, as always, there is no lack of sadness, which Miles will discover to be intrinsic to the life of the most famous Tessiragnatele in the world.
A new look for Spider-Man
The animated film of Spider-Man: A New Universe it is a path that touches the sensory: on the one hand we have the aesthetic rendering in 3D of the characters that, thanks to a mixed technique, stand out from the background in a way never seen before, on the other hand it is difficult to remember that it is an animated film, thanks to a facial expressions and a fast pace with colors ranging from light to dark, able to make us really forget that those are not real actors. The animation has several arrows in its bow, allowing our protagonist to move in a world that is not always consistent with himself, but spectacular beyond words. The characters that will accompany the young Miles make the film truly unique, allowing the viewer to know and discover new ways of interpreting the powers and origins of the Spider-Men present. A screaming soundtrack, the music and arrangements present in the film allow you to fully savor the feelings and sensations of the protagonists, mixing everything in a truly unique cocktail.
Spiderverse
There is indeed a great deal to say and talk about the infinite implications it could bring Spider-Man: A New Universe: the question that many might ask is whether it is possible to break down the barriers and plunge into the Marvel Cinematic Universe; everything is in fact possible as there is no reason why you should say no, after all, Miles lives in a specific universe and as his spider friends went to his universe, nothing would prevent him from ending up in ours. The presence of Stan Lee is welcome, impeccable in the choice of dialogues and truly unique with his smile, let's say it was a different cameo, thanks to the death of the author, but certainly more accurate than usual, in fact at the end of the film we find a dedication that caused more than one tear to fall, dedicated to him and Steve Ditko co-creator of the spider character. We can only wish you a good viewing at the cinema, reminding you not to get up until the end of the credits ... good Spiderverse at all!
