Ep893: Target Audience: SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE (2023)
Ian and Luke blast off into the Spider-verse with a look at the latest blockbuster animated film from Sony/Marvel!
Into the Spider-verse introduced Miles Morales and his Spider-egos from billions of alternate realities. When Gwen Stacy joins an elite corps of variants, Miles gets a peek into a wider world of possibilities--one which may help him defeat a dangerously bent new villain called The Spot. But not everyone in this newfound Spider-family is an ally!
In this quick review, father and son and compare the original to the sequel; tiptoe through the non-spoiler minefield, and wonder if the movie might be better suited for older kids (and not for the reasons you might think!).
