    He was also in 2022s Marmaduke movie which The Guardian describes as having

    “a level of aesthetic amateurishness seldom seen in wide-release motion pictures, more closely associated with DVD menu screens (and) computer games meant to teach children the fundamentals of phonics”

    It’s honestly probably the worst movie I’ve ever seen.

    So yea, he’s great and everything but they’re not all wall to wall bangers!

      I highly doubt JK Simmons was responsible for the animation. He probably signed up for voice work before it became apparent it looked terrible.

        No, but the other aspects of the movie (story. writing, direction etc) are just as terrible.

        The whole thing is horribly lazy and feels like it’s a combination of AI, a tax dodge and one of those contractual movies that has to be made or someone loses a licence.
