I watched 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' in Dolby Atmos and the new Marvel movie starring Tom Holland and Zendaya is the MCU at its brilliant best and worrisome worst
Spider-Man: Brand New Day succeeds as a deeply human step forward for Peter Parker in Marvel's cinematic juggernaut, but the comic giant and franchise partner Sony Pictures aren't willing to clear the deck and give him that truly fresh start he requires. There's more to like than not about Tom Holland's latest standalone adventure — I just hope its sequel takes some truly unquestionable big swings whenever it's officially announced.
Pros
- +Superb cast performances
- +Great action
- +Makes New York feel like a city with multiple heroes and villains
- +Solid exploration of topical themes
Cons
- -Doesn't examine Peter Parker's social isolation as well as it should
- -Refuses to move on from Spidey's first MCU film trilogy
- -Occasionally more interested in setting up future MCU projects
