Summary
- Spider-Man 2 (2004) hailed as potentially the best superhero movie.
- Japanese Spider-Man (1978) disqualified for being a TV episode.
- Tom Holland's Spider-Man films are re-evaluated in the ranking.
A new ranking of all Spider-Man films positions Sam Raimi's 2004 "Spider-Man 2" as the potential greatest superhero movie ever made. This film is lauded for building on its predecessor's foundation, deepening themes and characters. The ranking spans over five decades of cinematic Spider-Man history.
The evaluation includes films from the Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland eras, as well as animated features. Notably excluded is the 1978 Japanese "Supaidaman" due to its nature as a TV episode. The 1977 "Spider-Man" film, despite its significant flaws, is included for its feature length and theatrical release.
Tom Holland's "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" (2026) is highlighted for its direction and Holland's performance. The animated "Spider-Verse" films, particularly "Into the Spider-Verse" (2018), are praised for redefining animated superhero cinema with groundbreaking visuals and storytelling. The ranking acknowledges both the highs and lows of the character's on-screen presence.
