The elements we liked were the different color effects. Also, the sound effects and the realisticness of the settings. Another element we liked were the use of both high and low angles, contrasting each other.

The elements that did not appeal to us were the structure, it was extremely confusing. Another thing was the similarity between certain superhero costumes that made it difficult to identify the characters.
