Spiderman Into The Spider-Verse - 2.5/4
I have no idea how or why this became a critical darling but it was good fun and the cast was loaded to the brim. I did not particularly like Miles Morales, I'm not even sure what he provides that Peter Parker doesn't besides a different ethnicity. I found the integration of animation styles quite hard to endure too but it was well put together if a bit too busy. The joke count was relatively low but the action was great and I did enjoy the eclectic mix of Spider-folk however if I'm going to sit and watch a cartoon for two hours it needs to be very funny. Jake Johnson should have been in this for the duration and I feel slightly robbed that he was in it for an hour at most considering he supplied 90-95% of the laughs. The rest came from Katheryn Hahn as possibly my new favourite Doc Ock.
So yeah, really quite disappointing.
