Netflix Has An Oscar Winner Worth A Watch

Look, I’ve mentioned here MANY times how much my son and I are in the tank for superhero movies-specifically, anything “Batman” or “Spider-man.” Next week, we get the new “Spider-man”…

Look, I've mentioned here MANY times how much my son and I are in the tank for superhero movies-specifically, anything "Batman" or "Spider-man."

Next week, we get the new "Spider-man" live-action film, "Spider-man:  Far From Home."  And we're pumped.  However, yesterday I got a notification from Netflix that "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" was now available.

This came out last Christmas and frankly, I'd forgotten about it.  For some reason we didn't go see it in the theater and then when it won the Oscar for best animated film, we both said, "We've got to see this."

Well, last night was the night.

And it is AWESOME.

Even Debbie, who doesn't share our obsession for this genre, liked it.

"Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse" did big box office making an estimated $375.5 million in theaters and a sequel has already been announced.

With the HOT days of summer upon us, this is well worth spending a couple of air-conditioned hours with.
