Nicolas Cage delivers a gloriously pulpy performance that makes every quip and thwip crackle in Spider-Noir -- a dazzling, stylish blend of hard-boiled storytelling and pure comic book verve.

Graeme Blundell The Australian 5h
It’s a lot of fun, acting and direction are exemplary, and its parade of thieves, grifters, and bouncers are wonderfully evil. Go to Full Review
Peter Travers The Travers Take 9h
3/4
Nicolas Cage gives a four-star performance in a three-star Spidey-adjacent series that is almost but not quite as gloriously unhinged as he is playing a 1930’s gumshoe who’s 70 percent Humphrey Bogart and 30 percent Bugs Bunny. Go to Full Review
Ty Burr Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack) Jun 2
2.5/4
It’s an effective, atmospheric pastiche of studio-era classicism and comic book wham-bam, and it’s done well enough to tickle the sensibilities of old-movie geeks (me)... Go to Full Review
Shah! MovieJawn 10h
It’s humorous, exciting and, most importantly, it has a strong knack for truth and justice—just like all the good crime stories. Go to Full Review
Ayaan Paul Chowdhury The Hindu Jun 5
...Spider-Noir succeeds as one of television’s most fully realised genre experiments, because every creative department commits to the conceit with remarkable seriousness. Go to Full Review
Eileen Jones The Jacobin Jun 3
The whole thing has a lifeless, airless, hermetically sealed quality, like a stiff museum diorama or a mint-condition vintage toy still in its original packaging. Go to Full Review

Carey W @CareyW765 1h I love this show! The black-white-version is stuuuuuuning, i like the characters and the mix between "slice-of-life" and on-going story. Really enjoying Nicolas Cage, Li Jun Li and Lamorne Morris together! See more Brenden D @WestWardReviews 6h A Brilliant Breath Of Fresh Air After So Many Super Hero Projects That Struggled To Stick The Landing Or Have A Unique Voice, This Show Checked All The Boxes And Succeeded Where Many Others Struggled The Noir Feel Is Perfect, Not Afraid To Go For The Tropes And Be Silly But Still Maintain A Serious Tone. It Truly Feels Like A Private Eye Show Made From That Time, But With The Budget Of Today's Streaming Shows, While Still Having That Hokey Look Set Design, Costumes & Music - Absolutely Flawless. The Characters Are On Point, The Story Is Engaging, And Nicholas Cage Absolutely Nails The Live Action Version Of His Character. He's Cold & Calm, Wise & Whacky, Isn't Afraid To Go Full Blown "Meh-Say-Meh" Crime Drama Is Engaging With Plenty Of Twists And Turns. Brendan Gleason Is Absolutely Perfect As A Real S.O.B. Crime Boss. He Knows How To Be Ruthless & Manipulative. Definitely Recommend It In Black & White The Authentic Correct Way A 9.3/10 Absolute Must See For More Than Spider-Man Fans See more Oliver A @LittleOldPennywise 12h Absolutely superb. It's true to the genre while simultaneously breaking through superhero fatigue in a novel and ingenious way. If you've got any sense, you will love this! See more R T @RT16350461 14h Only watch this if you are (somehow) a fan of Noir. If you find the genre campy and insufferable and repetitive (Spiderman as a down-on-his-luck private investigator--you really had no other ideas?), then you won't make it past the first 5 minutes. Every lame trope in the genre shows up See more Aldafa F @RT10346745 14h Definition from funny and intens too, from the different ways. The actors or actress successfully run their role as be the chara See more Jewell C @Jews67 15h Stopped halfway through. Just not for me. It felt too slow paced and the acting ranged from serious to campy which took me out of it, especially Nicholas Cage. I did like the stunning B&W aesthetics. See more Read all reviews
