Ooh here is another movie I was hyped for that turned out to be "pretty damn good".
Cut out the first 30 minutes, condense it to about 15. This thing is way too long, almost 2 hours, and the first 30 it's not emotion, it's just uncomfortable bickering. The second half is both touching and frightening in equal measure. If you thought the scene in "Incredibles 2" was potentially seizure-inducing, this would have popped your eyeballs off if this got a theatrical release.
Pay special attention to the sound editing.
There's a lot of nice voice work - Olivia Coleman is the cell phone, and a lot of comedians are the robots. My favorites were Michael Rianda as Aaron and Eric Andre as Mark.
Interestingly, despite having listened to over 65 hours of "The Adventure Zone", I couldn't pick out who Griffin McElroy voiced.
It uses the same painterly/tech style of "Spider-verse", as both are from Sony Pictures Animation, and there are lots of little animated touches that infect the visual storytelling. Most of it's charming and fun, but very busy.
I feel this could be a grower of a movie. No franchise potential (but Sony will try, I'm sure) but extremely rewatchable.
