The thunderous success of ‘Spider-Man: Crossing the Multiverse’ at the box office is indisputable, but it is also that the stupendous animated adventure of the wall-crawler is also is making history for his artistic achievements: right now it is the third highest rated film of all time on IMDb with an average score of 9.1, while in letterboxd it has dethroned ‘Massacre: Come and see’ by achieving an average score of 4.66 out of 5, while that the acclaimed Russian production is at 4.57.
An undisputed victory
More than one is sure that it is thought that this assessment of ‘Spider-Man: Crossing the Multiverse’ will go down when the number of votes increases. It is true, but it is also true that in letterboxd it already has more than 12,000 votes, while ‘Massacre: Come and see’ has not yet reached 10,000, so Nor is it too much to say that it is not representative of the opinion of moviegoers around the world.
Where it has not reached the first position is on IMDb, since there ‘Cadena perpetua’ remains invincible with a 9.3, while ‘The Godfather’ holds on in second position with a 9.2. The one that has had to kneel is ‘The Dark Knight’, so Christopher Nolan’s feature film is no longer the best superhero movie of all time. The same is true of letterboxd, where until now it was tied with ‘Spider-Man: A New Universe’, with both receiving an average score of 4.45 out of 5.
And for those who trust more in filmaffinitythe same thing happens there, because ‘Crossing the Multiverse’ currently has an average score of 8.3, thus surpassing the 8.1 of ‘The Dark Knight’ and also slipping into the historical Top 40, tying in valuation with film jewels classics like ‘M, the vampire from Dusseldorf’, ‘In skirts and crazy’ or ‘To kill a mockingbird’.
Of course, here there is an abysmal difference in the number of votes, with 51,000 votes for ‘Spider-Man: Crossing the multiverse’ compared to 2.7 million for the film starring Christian Bale and Heath Ledger on IMDb. While in letterboxd the difference becomes 12,000 for the Sony film compared to 56,000 for ‘The Dark Knight’, and in filmaffinity from 1,645 to 153,771.
No matter how you look at it, the applause that ‘Spider-Man: Crossing the Multiverse’ is receiving from the public it’s being historic. And surely this helps its box office receipts to skyrocket even more.
