Spiderman: Brand New Day (Reel 1)

In some ways, it's hard giving this a spoiler free review because most people have already made up their minds on whether or not to go see the latest big blockbuster like Spiderman: Brand New Day. If you are a fan of the Tom Holland Spiderman movies, Marvel movies, etc., you'll probably enjoy this one! Zoe did hear some people say they were "bored" during this movie, and to that Zoe frankly questions their doomscrolling attention spans...

Yes, the film is a bit sombre and subtle, but that's because it is tackling more mature themes: grief, pain, and loneliness. Zoe argues the film tackles these themes very well and in an interesting way as a superhero movie! She strongly urges parents to not bring their smaller children. Yes, it's spiderman but it's still pg-13, probably not appropriate for the littles.
