OK, look... Spider-Man is all about magic portals and weird unexpected powers and alternate spiderverses and stuff and there's like 100? 200? different Spider-Men running around out there somewhere. Who's to say that Italian Spiderman isn't conceivably as valid as the rest? There's some pretty weird ones. I'd even go as far to say that this is officially Canon, everybody in charge is just too cowardly to admit.
Just an utterly amazing film. I'd give this 6/5 Stars if I were allowed to but I'm not so I can't.
