I'll say this and I can completely see where Cade and others might be coming from. Overall I did enjoy Jamie Foxx in this even if he was mostly being Jamie Foxx with a little of his Baby Driver persona thrown in.
I didn't like the Max Dillion stuff at all in TASM 2, but as hard as it is for some to believe I actually really enjoy all the Electro stuff in that movie, especially the unique visuals and the score during his action sequences.
There's some bad stuff in that movie but I didn't feel he was the real problem outside of him just being blue which wasn't comic accurate. Jamie Foxx has so much charisma and screen presence in this movie though and I liked seeing interact with the other villains because they each had different personalities.
This is ultimately why Electro worked so much better here. The way he was written in TASM2 didn't play as well to Jamie Foxx's strengths as an actor. Electro doesn't necessarily even need to be menacing, his portrayal here was in line with the PS4 version - a cocky, arrogant jerk.
