Warning: this review of “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” may suffer from Generation Gap-itis. At the press screening, I sat next to a trio of what looked to be Generation-Z critics who were on the edge of their seats for the duration of the 2 hour, 20 minute run-time, “Oo-ing” and “Aah-ing” about various details. Their minds were absolutely blown by the cameos, which would occasionally slam them back into their seats, where they would need a bit of recovery time for their breathing to return to normal. I, on the other hand, was bored out of my skull.
