Kevin Smith Calls Captain America: Civil War The Greatest Comic Book Movie Ever Made

The word coming out of early screenings of Captain America: Civil War has been extremely positive, and you can add Director Kevin Smith to that group.

Smith shared his thoughts on Twitter shortly after a screening of the film, where he said: "Watched @CaptainAmerica #CivilWar in amazing @4DX_USA theater! Easily the greatest comic book movie ever made! Best Spidey flick too! LOVED!"

It also isn't the first comment I've seen that praise Holland's performance as Spider-Man as the best on film, which is saying something since he's only in the movie for around 30 minutes. Still, it is apparently enough to make an impression.

I imagine a full review of the film is coming soon, along the lines of the one he did for Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. I doubt there will be as much controversy around it however, with a reaction like that.
