I was worn out after 45 minutes. Every scene seemed to have quick fast paced animation, very loud music and fast low volume dialogue.
It was like an assault on the senses. Obviously primarily aimed at a younger audience. Or those with ADHD. I just got a migraine.
I might have another go at watching the rest when I've recuperated.
I thought so too, I hit pause yesterday, and will continue today, try to finish it.
shareI just finished it. My advice is don't bother, it is actually half of the film. I'd wait for the next one out to watch together, that is if you are still interested.
shareI'm probably the 1% minority think the first one is boring... I don't get the hype for that movie.
shareBecause it's an animated movie that checks all the boxes for Gen Z and unless a new release in 2023 checks all the boxes of DEI, they won't even get out of bed to waste their time with it..
shareThe first Spider-Verse movie had some pretty crazy animation as well, but it was definitely a lot more restrained.
It felt like the animators of Across the Spider-Verse tried too hard to up the ante on the first movie's style. Between the visual's in Gwen's world, the vulture scene, the chase sequence with all the Spider-Men, etc. There was a LOT going on and it felt very unrestrained.
Half of the time when people talk about how great the Spider-verse is. The first thing anyone bring up is the Animation. Its always "Look At The Pretty Colors". The plot is completely secondary towards them.. I thought the first one was O.k.. But i didn't think it was the 60th best movie ever made. I haven't seen Across Spider-verse yet. But i doubt its the 14th best movie ever made.
shareYep, the visual is insulting my brain and eyes, the last movie make me feel this way is 6 Underground, it's the same style with the creators' previous movie The Mitchells vs the Machines.
I'm rewatching the first one right now, its style isn't that flamboyant.
