Entertaining, but lacks the original's magic
Quick write-off:
The original Spider-Ninja -- a feudal fantasy taking the well-known webslinger and some of his villains gallery and reimagining them in ancient Japan -- was a slick, fast-paced Flash video that deserved the attention it received. And while ninjas are always cool, they and their stories can quickly run out of steam.
While one can't necessarily complain about the imagination and animation, there's something lacking -- it felt a little slower, and the magic wasn't quite there. It's a fun ride to sit through (especially the Sandman bit), and there's always hope in the inevitable sequel. But the signs are definitely there -- sequelitis struck.
