Spider-Man: Brand New Day earns strong early reviews

moviesAug 2, 202622163

Spider-Man: Brand New Day opened to strong early reviews praising Tom Holland’s Peter Parker and the film’s action and tone. Destin Daniel Cretton directs a story the rachelfhundred.com review says splits into two main arcs: Peter’s journey to accept that he cannot live alone and Spider-Man’s hunt for a mind-control villain terrorizing the Department of Damage Control. The review praises the film as a "damn good movie" while criticizing its reliance on flashbacks and a narrative gap around how Peter funds his elaborate home electronics setup. The review also notes the movie appears to introduce Jean Grey to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and largely ignores events from Daredevil: Born Again despite a ceremonial key to the city. Motion-capture performer Teifion Sussex of Oaknill received a credit for doubling Tom Holland. Overall early coverage frames Brand New Day as a strong, character-focused MCU Spider-Man that sets up at least one major new franchise character.

Apparently Brand New Day surpassed the opening day of Endgame. "Superhero fatigue" my ass.

This is a kick ass song! No wonder Kevin Feige wanted these guys to do a song for the Japanese release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ4a...

SPIDERMAN BRAND NEW DAY: 3/5. Best MCU Spider-Man film but low bar. Destin Daniel Cretton's direction and good visuals and action help a lot. All of the baggage carried over from NO WAY HOME do not.

somehow, this meme is a Spider-Man: Brand New Day spoiler

In the first panel, MJ kisses Spider-Man

In the second panel, MJ says "you're a good kisser, Parker. But also so..."

In the third panel, Mysterio reveals himself. "Gullible."

In the fourth panel, Spider-man looks shocked and confused.

Fourth time’s the charm as Spider-Man: Brand New Day sees Tom Holland’s version of the web-slinger in an emotional and dramatic tale while being exhilarating and action-heavy that in all makes it a heck of spider-tingling time. 10/10 #spidermanbrandnewday

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is the most “comic book” film Marvel has done since the first Avengers movie, in all the best ways. They NAILED Spider-Man and the vibe of how it feels to read a Marvel comic better than anything I’ve ever seen.

Rewatching clips from Homecoming to test my ranking (I'm the only person in the entire world that has it above Brand New Day in my personal ranking) and gosh it's so charming how tiny and simple it was. Comparing it to the much grander BND, with an experienced Spider-Man, it's so cool to see!

Saw Spiderman Brand New Day today with the kids and it was genuinely a good time - I can't help but love Tom Holland's Spidey, and this one was a great addition. I'm not really a superhero movie lover generally but there's something about Spiderman that's just fun.
