Review of Iron Man & Captain America: Heroes United (2014) by Michael H — 01 Mar 2015

Marvel Animationâ??s unique â??2-D wrapâ?? animation style where the standard animation is scanned into a computer for added weight and facial expressions. Itâ??s still a serious work in progress.

At times, the effect looks more realistic than a simple cartoon, but all too often the herky-jerky animation is distracting as the character movement resembles mid-90s CGI cartoons.

And the character lip synching is the animationâ??s most glaring flaw. It looks like the characterâ??s mouths were pasted on in post-production. Thatâ??s great for a comedy sketch, but not for a project meant to be taken somewhat seriously.
