Is it really that good or do people only like it for “diversity”?


Is this movie really that good or are people calling it great because it showcases “demographic X”?

i've watched it 12 times.
i love it. it's pure cinematic joy to me.
i think it's the greatest recreation of a comic book world ever seen in a movie.
maybe some people like it for its diversity. i dunno. i can't see into their hearts or minds.
but the fact that so many people have fallen for this particular film suggests to me there's more going on here than pandering to identity politics.

Its good! Its animation is very,very innovative!

It's really good!

Absolutely dazzling animation, I mean the movie is just amazing to look at, it's fast-paced, clever, and full of action, the plot is clever, the hero is completely likable, and it's just plain fun.

Hands down the best animated movie of 2018. It's really that good.

It is an absolutely phenomenal movie! I have seen it more than 10 times and I still get goosebumps at the "leap of faith" scene.

It really is that good

ITs good. But its not the 69th best movie ever made and i wouldn't put it over Spider-man 2 either.

I know we're comparing apples to oranges but I'd watch it over any of the Tom Holland films. It's unique and compelling with an interesting art style. His ethnicity isn't a driving point by any means.

That Funny, I thought Spider-man No Way Home took the same concept and did it remarkably better. More emotional moments like Peter Losing his aunt. Giving up his friends so the world could go on. I don't think miles faced the same challenges that Peter faced in that movie. And im not the biggest fan of the MCU Spider-man.

"Let's bring some homicidal maniacs back to life and give them room and board, and leave them alone with my aunt.....all because it's the right thing to do". This notion alone invalidate anything this movie had going for it.
