BLUF: A good sequel to a very good first movie.
Ben Affleck is probably in the best shape he’s been in since Daredevil (2003). This is funny and endearing at times, and has great action sequences. I admit to getting a little lost in the layers of plot they set out, but it all makes sense in the end. I do wanna throw the BS flag down on one thing, though. There’s a trope or stereotype that people with autism have intellectual superpowers. Some do, sure, but most just struggle with living in the world around them. Another trope is that computers are basically magic and can do just about anything. So when you put superpowered kids on magical computers, it kinda breaks the realm of believability with what they show happening. But whatever, it’s a movie. I enjoyed it.
