Every Single Spider-Man Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

2. Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

There are many, many explosive, emotional moments in the third Avengers movie, but Spider-Man's death at the end is one of the very most impactful beats of the entire film. He's essentially in Infinity War as a narrative device (though a very charming and funny one he makes), in order to double down on Tony Stark's guilt at involving him at all in employed superheroism.

Infinity War is obviously a massive ensemble piece with lots of characters and it would be difficult for any but the really top billed characters (Thanos, Thor and Iron Man chiefly) to leave TOO much of a mark, but Tom Holland's Spider-Man does manage it thanks to his enthusiasm in the face of doom and that awful death moment.

The film itself is a breath-taking achievement too - the kind of spectacle that the term "blockbuster" was invented for, which manages to include some of the best comics panel-like scenes and original story-telling at the same time.
