This ranking covers the ten solo or lead-character Spider-Man films released through 2023: the three Sam Raimi films, two Marc Webb films, three Tom Holland solo films, and both animated Spider-Verse films. It follows ComicBook.com’s January 31, 2024 ranking, one critic’s subjective order—not an objective or audience-consensus verdict. The cutoff matters: Disney’s current live-action release-order list includes Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026), so this is a defined ten-film set, not a complete count of Spider-Man films as of 2026.
The ranking weighs story and emotional payoff, Peter or Miles’s characterization, the villain, visual style, and how well each film stands on its own rather than leaning on MCU or multiverse connections. It includes films led by Peter Parker or Miles Morales, not team-up appearances such as Captain America: Civil War or Avengers: Infinity War.
All 10 Spider-Man movies, ranked worst to best
- The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone give the film appealing leads, and it is competently made. Its last-place position comes down to relative safety: beside entries with more distinctive storytelling or stronger emotional surprises, this origin story feels comparatively familiar and restrained.
- Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019)
Tom Holland and Jake Gyllenhaal make a compelling pair, but the European adventure and its MCU connections leave less room for Peter’s own development. Peter is caught between adolescence and superhero responsibility, yet the globe-trotting plot often takes precedence over that personal tension.

- The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)
The sequel is crowded, especially when it pauses to lay groundwork for a possible Sinister Six spinoff. Still, its heightened energy and Garfield’s performance give it a lively appeal that keeps it from being an uncomplicated misfire.
- Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
Holland, the ensemble cast, and Michael Keaton’s Vulture are major strengths. The main drawback is how much Tony Stark’s mentorship shapes Peter’s motivations, making this chapter feel less independent than a story centered more fully on Peter’s choices at school and as a hero.

- Spider-Man 3 (2007)
Several storylines compete for space, but the Sandman material gives the film a strong emotional thread. Its uneven, sometimes campy energy is part of its identity: it is an overstuffed sequel that remains memorable precisely because it takes such an unusual path.
- Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
The multiverse brings three live-action Spider-Men together, but the crossover works best when their shared scenes serve Peter’s emotional story. The film gives each of them meaningful purpose; its comparatively conventional direction keeps it below the list’s more formally distinctive choices.

- Spider-Man (2002)
Sam Raimi’s first film in the original trilogy is Tobey Maguire’s feature-film debut as Spider-Man, telling Peter Parker’s origin. Its sincerity anchors the story, while Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin supplies a memorable antagonist. It remains a strong, straightforward superhero origin even beside later reinventions.
- Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)
The animation is striking, but the film’s lasting strength is the emotional story at its center: the next chapter in Miles Morales’s journey. Its cliffhanger is also a real qualification. This is the first half of an ongoing story, so it does not deliver the same sense of closure as a self-contained film.

- Spider-Man 2 (2004)
The strongest live-action film in this ranking makes Peter’s sacrifice the engine of its story. His effort to balance college and superhero life gives the conflict personal weight, and Alfred Molina’s Otto Octavius is an effective counterpart whose choices intensify that pressure.
- Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
Miles Morales’s story takes the top spot for its inventive visual style, well-drawn characters, and emotional impact. Rather than relying on a familiar live-action formula, it makes animation central to how the story moves and feels. Sony identifies Across the Spider-Verse as its sequel, but the original works as a complete introduction to Miles.

How to use this ranking
The order is a critic’s judgment, not a claim that every viewer will agree. A fan drawn to spectacle may rank No Way Home higher; someone who values a compact character arc may favor Spider-Man 2 or Into the Spider-Verse. The useful distinction is between a film’s individual strengths and how well its full story holds together.
What are all the Spider-Man movies in order of release?
For this ten-film set, release order is: Spider-Man (2002), Spider-Man 2 (2004), Spider-Man 3 (2007), The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014), Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019), Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023). This is not the current exhaustive release order: Disney’s live-action list includes Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026).
Where to watch the Spider-Man movies
Streaming rights vary by country and change over time, so there is no reliable universal service list. Sony’s official US page for the 2002 Spider-Man lists Apple TV, Prime Video, Fandango at Home, DIRECTV, and Sony Pictures Core; that availability is specific to the page’s US market and may change. Check the relevant studio or a current local listings service for the other films and your region.
