    Ash

    ★★

    When you have a contained sci-fi thriller like this, it’s easy to take it at face value and just indulge in the story as it comes at you, but Ash is totally vacuous. My most charitable impression fresh out of the theater is that it’s a sensory overload mystery film that overstays its welcome, but the more I distance myself from the film the more I sour on it.

    Across the spiderverse is everything I love about movies. To say I was transported is like a complete understatement. The animation is so vibrant and lively that I feel like I could smell and feel every atmosphere. This is undoubtedly the most impressively animated movie of all time. We are so lucky to get to watch the spiderverse team change the game in…
