Every Spider-Man Movie Ranked Worst To Best

2. Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

Given how Spider-Man: No Way Home has only been in cinemas for two days as of this writing, it would be a tad unfair to throw out all kinds of spoilers for that picture.

What is fair to throw out, though, is that No Way Home is one of the greatest Peter Parker outings ever seen.

For Tom Holland's Web-head, he has to battle several villains all at once, with him also having to deal with the fallout of his secret identity being made public at the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home. It's a tough, tough time for Peter, and all of these mounting issues unfold to allow a slightly darker side to be shown from Holland's Spidey.

As a giant spectacle of a Spider-Man movie, this is phenomenal stuff, with the set pieces, the performances, the emotive beats, the musical beats, and Jon Watts' smart, decisive direction marking this out as the pinnacle (so far) for the MCU's Wall-crawler.
