It's basically the law that a Spider-Man movie has to end with Spidey taking an epic swing through the New York streets while rattling off an inspiring monologue, and it's all too apt that the best Spider-Man movie of all time also delivers the best send-off.

Miles (Shameik Moore) tells the audience, "My name is Miles Morales. I was bitten by a radioactive spider, and for like two days, I've been the one and only Spider-Man. I never thought I'd be able to do any of this stuff, but I can. Anyone can wear the mask. You could wear the mask. If you didn't know that before, I hope you do now."

At once a wonderful summation of the movie's inclusiveness and a more general statement about the potential for everyday folk to be superheroes, this instantly cemented itself as one of the most inspiring one-liners in superhero movie history.

"With great power comes great responsibility" just got trumped.
