A marvelous mesh of style, homage and deconstruction, “Spider-Noir” is the year’s top TV treat so far.

That the series houses its mad science experiments and cartoonish fight scenes in familiar packaging goes a long way toward keeping it accessible, but the charming eccentricities and their astute implementation add up to a Spider-story worth investing in — bring on the strange.

The whole is fast enough and fun enough to get away with it. Everything is shot with style and confidence, while the script contains just enough sharp dialogue and witty banter (even if it does occasionally veer into screwball comedy territory when it occurs between men and women) to keep it aligned with the templates of the past.

Nicolas Cage gives a four-star performance in a three-star Spidey-adjacent series that is almost but not quite as gloriously unhinged as he is playing a 1930’s gumshoe who’s 70 percent Humphrey Bogart and 30 percent Bugs Bunny.

Not only in terms of the action, which was never expected to be quite on the same level as movies with much bigger budgets, but also in how certain emotional moments did not have quite the same punch, or a few villains ended up being more generic than expected. Still, Spider-Noir is a winning story for this new live-action side of Spider-Man, and, hopefully, it can continue to improve with a second season and more.

Periodically, Spider-Noir is, indeed, a hoot. It’s too bad you have to wade through so much nondescript storytelling to get there.

This is the same ecosystem that gave us “Kraven,” “Madame Web,” “Venom,” and “Morbius,” films that kept mistaking supporting-player novelty for the foundation of a real story. “Spider-Noir” makes the same mistake, and Cage’s oddball charm can’t save it.

Spider-Noir is the definitive proof that there’s a universe where Nicolas Cage was born to be a depressed, dramatic Spider-Man wandering through smoke-filled **** story doesn’t always match the level of the aesthetics—and that’s okay. Because few superhero series seem as comfortable in their own skin as this one. Every shadow, every shot, and every internal monologue seem to come straight out of a lost 1940s film **** most curious thing is that the series works best when it forgets it needs to be a superhero production and fully embraces its vibe as a melancholic detective trying to survive in a broken **** honestly? Seeing Nicolas Cage finally find a role that uses 100% of his Nicolas Cage energy is worth the subscription alone.
