For one thing, it's crazy long (2.5 hours). And once you get thoroughly exhausted with the never-ending plot line, they drop the bomb that this is only part one. Directors have lost the ability to restrain themselves.

Secondly, there was only half an antagonist. Spot's likable, not responsible for his condition, and just never really becomes the bad guy. Nor is he defeated. I liked the character, but maybe as a side villain.

Does Morales make any headway in this movie? I'm not sure. It seemed like more of a "day in the life of" movie.

Also, 5 times as many spidermen, but none of the developed characters like from the first movie? Maybe the guy leading the spiderverse, but his character is not clear in the least. Some sort of ninja vampire, spiderman? It wasn't explained.

I don't know. I don't think I will show for another helping.

Definitely got blueballed by the to be continued but I loved the movie and can’t wait for the finale.

Damn I didn't know that. That's really too bad. They're milking it!

It’s still really good. I just wish they had the next part out sooner. Was supposed to be March but I don’t think that’s happening.

Any movie over 2 hours this automatically on my "I'll catch it on streaming later" list.

Damn. Are there other animated feature films that are 2.5 hours? It's hard enough to sit through live action as it is with that length.
