Better than I expected

Rating: 7/10 (7 October 2019)

"Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" was perhaps better than I'd expected. I'm not that into superheroes; never really was. So I didn't have high hopes. However, the movie surprised me straight off the bat for a couple of reasons. For one thing, the animation is not what I'd expected. It's more Pixar than Marvel. But more significantly, the protagonist of the movie is not Peter Parker, who I regard as a boring character. The protagonist is a half-African American, half-Puerto Rican teenager who is bitten by the radioactive spider in the subway.
The plot is fairly interesting, allowing for multiple Spider-men and women, but I didn't get into it that much. Quite often I wasn't paying complete attention. I didn't think the animation style totally fit. But the fact that I watched the whole movie is probably a sign that it's very good, since as I just explained, it's not really my kind of thing, but I watched it regardless.
